Effect of Quartz porphyry (QP) on clinical chmical parameters in male common finch by feeding the basal diet (Control group) containing 3.0% QP (QP group) for 14 days was studied. Body weight gain, feed intake, feed efficiency, the relative weight (mg/10 g body wight) of liver and heart were not significantly different in the both groups. However, the relative weights of kidney and gizzard in the QP group were higher and lower than in the control group, respectively. The contents of triglyceride, cholesterol, total protein, glucose and albumin, and the activity of glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT) in serum were not significantly different in the both groups. The activities of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT) in serum were lower and higher in the QP group than in the control group.

The control efficiency of the nematicides, aldicarb and carbofuran, in the population dynamics of the soybean cyst nematode(Heterodera glycines)was evaluated. Nematode viability, penetration and reproduction were examined in greenhouse experiments. Nematode viability(movement) was greatly reduced by aldicard, but mot by carbofuran. Penetration was inhibited by both chemicals. Percentages of Pentration relative to the untreated check 3 days after treatment were 0.4% and 1.7% for aldicarb and carbofuran, respectively. Systemic effect ot the nematicides were observed with both nematicides but effect was greater with aldicarb than with carbofuran. The total effect of the nematicides, applied ay the time of planting soybean in infested soil, appeared to be less than the sum of the contact and systemic effects on the initial population dynamics of H. glycines.
