The toxic effect was examined by the three major endpoints of oxidative stress. The fly mortality observed at the highest concentration of Dichlorvos indicates severity of the pesticide action on the organism. Such a drastic effect may be due the inhibitory effect of key neurotransmitter enzyme acetylcholinesterase resulting into irreparable damage to the vital cellular activities as reported earlier. The induction of key anti-oxidant enzymes Catalase and Superoxide dismutase and LPO activity indicates oxidative stress caused by the organophosphate pesticides in the exposed organism. Such a stress may arise due to generation of free radicals in the pesticide exposed flies. Another observation was that pesticide induced oxidative stress was maximum in the old flies supporting the earlier reports that aging causes more free radical generation and less quenching of free radicals. This study further emphasizes the utility of using fruitfly as a model for studying basic biological process in eukaryotes ····· 10361132657

A single hive may yield 4-5 kg of honey. Moreover, the destruction of bee hives Could be a major environmental disaster. Honeybees are responsible for pollinating over 100 commonly eaten fruit and vegetable crops and without bees the food system would be in serious trouble. Rural village dependent on locally grown foods would be most vulnerable. The need of the hour is to check unscientific proliferations of mobile phone towers. More research is essential on how to protect the bee hives from the electromagnetic exposure, but perhaps more to study the impacts on humans. All mobile phone towers emit microwave radiations, which is in the radio frequency radiation (RFR), part of the spectrum of electromagnetic waves. Though RFR, like Ultra violet (UV) and Infra-red light, is a source of non-ionizing radiation, these radiations, together with ionizing electromagnetic radiations such as X- rays, gamma rays make up the electromagnetic spectrum. Radio frequency radiation is a source of thermal energy and in adequate doses, has all the known effects of heating on biological systems. ····· 10361132593

The effects of heat treatment, different oils/fat and reducing and non-reducing sugars on the soy protein isolate (SPI) and SPI curd were studied. The physico-chemical, biochemical and textural properties of three types of soy cheese were compared: (1) glucono- -lactone (GDL) induced, (2) bacterially fermented and (3) GDL-induced and fermented. The results indicate that the fermented-GDL-cheese had the most acceptable texture. Heat treatment of SPI at neutral pH caused it to denature partially and increased the storage modulus and hardness of subsequently GDL-induced gels. Subsequent heat treatment of the acidic gels further significantly enhanced the storage modulus and gel hardness. The SPI emulsion containing palm stearin showed higher emulsifying stability, emulsifying activity, protein adsorption and denaturation degree than the emulsions containing sunflower and soy oil at neutral pH. ····· 10361132299

Most of the members of family Solanaceae are medicinally important and being utilized in traditional medicines since centuries. The uncontrolled exploitation of these plants forced many of them to vanish from the earth crust and number of them are critically endangered. This situation demands a very strong solution for the conservation of these medicinal plants. Plant tissue culture technology offers a desired solution for the conservation of economically and ecologically important plants. Withania somnifera and Solanum surattense are the two important medicinal plants of family solanaceae, which are extensively used in Ayurvedic preparations and are characterized by the presence of many secondary metabolites of medicinal significance. Regeneration of complete plantlets of Withania somnifera and Solanum surattense using different plant tissue culture techniques has been discussed.

Sixty four articles from the research and gray literature both in Japan (26) and North America (38) which discuss the human dimensions of bear management were reviewed. A cross-cultural comparison showed that significantly more Japanese thought bears should be extirpated than US respondents. Most Japanese and North American researchers emphasized the importance of education for residents and visitors to reduce human-bear conflicts. This study found that damage by bears can be contributing to the negative attitudes toward these animals in Japan, and therefore wildlife managers and governments need to focus on reducing these damages. Also, effective educational programs need to be conducted for residents so that they can acquire accurate information and skills to prevent bear conflicts. This book should be especially useful to professionals and researchers in the field of wildlife management, or anyone else who is interested in wildlife or human-wildlife interactions. ····· 10361132095

This process may assist infection by pathogens whereas for non-pathogens apoptosis induction within carcinoma cells protects against colon cancer. Here, apoptosis induction by a major new gut bacterium, Atopobium minutum, was compared with induction by commensal (Escherichia coli K-12 strains), probiotic (Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Bifidobacterium latis) and pathogenic (E. coli: EPEC and VTEC) gut bacteria within the colon cancer cell line, Caco-2. The results show a major apoptotic effect for the pathogens, mild effects for the probiotic strains and A. minutum, but no effect for commensal E. coli. Short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) are the main fermentation products of intestinal saccharolytic bacteria in the colon and are thought to protect against colon cancer by inducing apoptosis in transformed cells. Our results confirmed that SCFAs caused morphological changes in human colonic carcinoma cell line (Caco-2) indicative of apoptosis. Analysis of various molecular markers of apoptosis (Bcl-2, caspases, cytochrome c release and cell membrane FAS levels) strongly indicated that effect. ····· 10361132056

It has the potentials of multipurpose usage. It is mainly used as a human food because of its high nutritive value. It is evident that the various parts of the Cajanus cajan plant are exploited for their economic importance and it has also been to have medicinal and aromatic properties. The alternate and novel approach for the improvement of this crop is to complement the traditional breeding with tissue culture techniques to regenerate plants from single cells and organized tissues. Having known about this significance, standardization of protocols of tissue cultures, biochemical assays and molecular analysis, would serve as a prime step of the genetic engineering experiments. Therefore this text is particularly emphasized for the development of a procedure by which plants can be regenerated from single cells and organized tissues are essentially required for genetic engineering of Cajanus cajan. ····· 10361131877

Malaria, filariasis, Japanese encephalitis and dengue fever are important diseases vectored by mosquitoes. Dengue fever is becoming more and more vital public health concern in tropical and sub tropical world with Aedes albopictus as the core mosquito vector in this respect. Presently controlling this vector with habitat spraying remains an important option to minimize the incidence of dengue fever. However, the mishandling and/or overuse of synthetic chemicals in public health programs have caused many problems to human beings and environment as well. To lessen these problems, major consideration has been on the use of natural plant based products as larvicides which could provide alternatives to synthetic insecticides. Citrus is one of the most commonly consumed fruits with elements that have mosquitocidal properties and the oils from these are effective against dengue and malarial mosquitoes. This book, therefore, focuses on to evaluate the mosquitocidal properties of citrus waste-derived essential oils from various cultivars of citrus family (Rutaceae). ····· 10361131869

But acute shortage of genetically superior bucks is one of the major constraints of goat production in Bangladesh. It is established that due to haphazard breeding system the genetic merit of Black Bengal goat is under threat. In this regard, superior buck selection seems to be very important and alternative approach to boast up the production potential. Therefore, during selection of breeding buck special attention should be given on age, body weight, soundness of the sexual organ especially testis and quality of semen. The testicular parenchyma is composed of seminiferous tubules (from which spermatozoa is formed) and leydig cells or interstitial cells. The sertoli cells are responsible for phagocytosis of residual cytoplasm cast off during maturation of spermatocytes and for synthesis of androgen-binding protein which is essential for proper germ cell differentiation and leydig cells secrete testosterone responsible for male sexuality.

für 61.20€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray Rice is one of the most important food crops in South Eastern Tanzania. However, production is very low, below an annual average of 40 thousand tonnes from an estimated cultivated area of about 35 thousand hectares. Lack of improved preferred high yielding varieties, poor water and soil management practices in irrigated fields are some of the factors to which farmers often attribute low production. A study was conducted to investigate measures that can contribute to enhance sustainable and increased rice production in irrigated fields of South Eastern Tanzania. Conventional and Farmer Participatory Research approaches were integrated to take on board farmers perceptions and knowledge. The results indicate that Farmer Participatory Research shortens the research process and enhances acceptability and adoption of the results. However, without addressing some of the important limitations such as absence of subsidies and poor input distribution network fertiliser adoption is very unlikely. The implications for future rice research is that a shift in emphasis should be given to incorporate farmers selection criteria in the breeding programme next to traditional criteria. ····· 10361119530

Approximately 1 in 48 women in the UK will develop ovarian cancer in their lifetime. Surgery followed by chemotherapy involving a platinum-containing compound is the standard treatment for advanced disease. However, despite initial response rates of 70% to platinum-based chemotherapy, chemoresistance frequently develops and is in part responsible for the poor 5-year survival rate of just 30%. In this book, the role of the AKT pathway is examined in acquired platinum resistance using three isogenically matched cell line pairs derived from ovarian cancer patients, pre- and post-platinum resistant relapse. Findings here provide evidence for the role of DNA-PKcs in mediating the activation of AKT in response to DNA DSBs caused by the cytotoxic effects of cisplatin, which is observed in platinum-resistant ovarian cancer cell lines, but not platinum-sensitive cell lines. Targeting DNA-PKcs, in combination with platinum, presents a novel strategy of reversing platinum resistance and circumventing insulin-related toxicities. ····· 10361119448· 1 · ::::: · 5 ·· 6 ·· 7 ·· 8 ·· 9 ·· 10 ·· 11 · ::::: · 36 ·
