The plankton community is a heterogeneous group consisting of tiny plants to large jelly fishes of over 10 m long adapted to suspension in the sea and freshwaters. Animals with feeble locomotory power and which are carried along by the moving water are called as plankton. They are divided into phytoplankton and zooplankton. The zooplankton assemblage inhibiting freshwater mostly comprise of Protozoa, Coelenterate, Rotifera, Gastrotricha, Bryozoa and Arthropoda (Battish 1992). Most zooplankton occupies the second or third tropic level of the aquatic food web as such these herbivores, carnivores and omnivores play a significant role in aquatic food webs. The minute size of phytoplankton denotes that aquatic grazers are very small and therefore there exits many steps or links in aquatic food webs which are necessary to support large carnivores such as fish. There are many studies on the zooplankton populations of tropical ponds. As zooplankton constitutes important live feed for many economically important fishes and prawns a large quantity of zooplankton is harvested daily by the aquarists from the ponds (Altaff et al 2002). ····· 1036120145

Monosodium Glutamate (MSG): Plasma Prolactin Level In Male Rabbits

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The present study was designed to demonstrate the effect of monosodium glutamate on PRL level in prepubertal rabbits. Glutamate is a major neurotransmitter that acts on extensive brain regions, such as hypothalamus and the pituitary and induce the secretion of PRL. In this study, young male rabbits (Lates calcarifer) of 3 to 4 months of age were treated with 2mg/g body weight MSG dissolved in 0.9% saline. The animals in control group received equal quantity of 0.9% saline. Blood samples were collected 15 minutes after administration of drug, and plasma was separated. All plasma samples were analyzed by Enzyme linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). Within the control group, there was no significant difference in plasma PRL level (p0.05). In treated group, plasma PRL level was highest in T2 (2.69 ± 0.042 ng/ml) and lowest in T1 (2.16 ± 0.067 ng/ml). Administration of glutamate in the form of MSG causes tonic activation of tuberinfudibular dopaminergic neuron system (TIDA). As a result dopamine release, PRL level in prepubertal rabbits decreases. Regression analysis of variance showed non significant negative trend in plasma PRL level (p 0.05) in animals of control and treated group. ····· 1036119983

Microorganisms That Benefit Insects

für 61.20€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Bacteria, fungi and protozoa often benefit insects in some manner. A microorganism may live passively within the external environment, yet share a close and apparently mutualistic association with an insect. Alternatively, the relationship may be so mutualistic that a microorganism is obligately restricted to living within specialized insect tissues. Microorganisms are known affect almost every aspect of insect physiology and are a necessary component underlying many insect behaviours. Over the last 100 years, the number of known, beneficial microorganisms has grown steadily. This guide compiles those known examples, describes the method in which each microorganism is transmitted among insects, and indicates how the microorganisms are experimentally manipulated to ascertain their beneficial function. ····· 1036119587

Monosodium Glutamate: Effect on Plasma Cortisol

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Cortisol is the principal active glucocorticoid produced by the human adrenal gland, which is the key regulator of whole-body homeostasis. Cortisol is essential for provision of nutrients to tissues via carbohydrate, protein, and lipid metabolism. It also affects all of the major systems of the body, including the cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, nervous, and immune systems, and play critical roles in fetal development. Secretion of cortisol is controlled by hypothalamus, pituitary and the adrenal gland. CRH released from the hypothalamus acts on pituitary gland to release ACTH, which acts on the adrenal gland to increase the synthesis and release of cortisol. This book focuses on the changes in plasma cortisol observed in adult male rabbits treated with monosodium glutamate. Monosodium glutamate, is the salt which is frequently used in daily life. This book demonstrates that how monosodium glutamate crosses the blood brain barrier acts on the HPA axis and consequently increases the plasma cortisol level. ····· 1036119450

Recent Advances in Acridology

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Over the last decade or so, the use of insecticides has increased exponentially, and some of these are carcinogenic and therefore, banned from usage completely. With the advent of biopesticides and integrated pest management (IPM), the focus is on ecofriendly approaches and very little academic literature exits on how to best utilize this arena for acridiods of agricultural importance. Insect pests have been estimated to cause $90.5 billion dollars in damages to eight principal food and cash crops viz., rice, wheat, barley, maize, potato, soybean, cotton and coffee versus $76.9 billion dollars damage by disease pathogens and $76.3 billion dollars by weeds. It has been suggested that by adopting insect pest management, the global crops could be doubled. This book, therefore, should help shed some light on crop damage by grasshoppers and the results of such studies will be instrumental in understanding and devising population management strategies and should especially be useful to farmers, entomologists, agriculturists, or any one else who may be considering to take a lead role in crop production. ····· 1036119333

Faecal Contamination of Drinking Water

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Faecal contamination of water can introduce a variety of pathogens into water ways, including bacteria, viruses, protozoans and parasitic worms. Poor excreta disposal is often associated with lack of adequate water supplies, poor sanitation facilities and low economic status populations. In this study water samples were collected from wells, taps and harvested rain water containers in Kimumu area of Eldoret municipality in Kenya and analyzed using standard bacteriological and parasitological methods. The quality of tap and rain water was found to be acceptable. The presence of Escherichia coli in well water was an obvious indication of faecal contamination. Faecal parasites observed were Entamoeba histolytica, Ascaris lumbricoides, Giardia lamblia, Necator americanus, Ancyclostoma duodenale, Fasiola hepatica, Taenia saginata and Taenia solium. To control infestations with faecal intestinal parasites, provision of treated piped water to all homesteads, consultation of water engineers and/or health inspectors before well construction and creation of public awareness are recommended. Scholars of microbiology and parasitology and parasitologists will find this book resourceful. ····· 1036119332

Cattla cattla (Carp) is found in Northern India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Burma. Five hybrids have been produced. Its total length is 950 mm and total weight is 18.5 kg. The spawning season of C. catla in Gujrat is between June to September. The Present work aims at the determination of total lipid in livers of commercially important major carp. Total lipid profile in female C. catla was measured to study variations from immature to mature stage. Variance between hepatosomatic index (HSI) and gonadosomatic (GSI) index and total body weight with respect to total lipid in liver is also studied. These variations were studied in relation with environmental parameters. Seasonal variations in the level of lipid in fish are related maily to the reproductive cycle. They accumulate large lipid reserves prior to gonadal development. In general fatty acids are mobilized from the lipid reserves of fish during gonadogenesis and transferred via the serum to liver where they are assembled into the lipoprotein, vitellogenin. The total lipid (phospholipids, cholesterol and triglyceride) can be catabolized to provide metabolic energy for egg lipoprotein synthesis. ····· 1036118488

Tannery effluent is among one of the hazardous pollutants of industry. Major problems are due to wastewater containing heavy metals, toxic chemicals, chloride, lime with high dissolved and suspended salts and other pollutants. Tanneries generate wastewater in the range of 30 - 35 L/kg skin / hide processed with variable pH and high concentrations of suspended solids, BOD, COD, tannins including chromium. Chromium is the major constituent of tannery effluent, which is the heavy metal and highly toxic to aquatic fauna. Chromium is not known to accumulate in the bodies of fish, but high concentrations of chromium, due to the disposal of metal products in surface waters, can damage the gills of fish that swim near the point of disposal. This book experimentally explains the Chromium toxicity on fresh water edible fish, Cyprinus carpio and explains the impact of tannery effluents. ····· 1036118271
