The objective of the water treatment is to supply potable water that is chemically and microbiologically safe for human consumption. This purity can be achieved by a variety of processes depending upon the source and nature of the water. These processes include clarification, sedimentation, filtrati[r]
Mainstreaming genetic medicine, increased media coverage and clinical trials for BRCA mutation carriers are leading oncologists into more patient discussions about BRCA genetic testing. BRCA variants of uncertain significance (VUS) occur in 10–20 % of tests. VUS detection introduces additional uncer[r]
from those of Zhang et al. [11] who failed to observean interaction between the two proteins. This discrep-ancy might be related to the methods applied. Theseauthors used in vitro translation of Rap1 and Krit1.The amount of proteins produced might not be suffi-cient for coimmunoprecipitation b[r]
BK-UM (CRM197) is a mutant form of diphtheria toxin and a specific inhibitor of heparin-binding epidermal growth factor-like growth factor (HB-EGF). We assessed the safety, pharmacokinetics, recommended dose, and efficacy of BK-UM in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer (OC) or peritoneal cancer ([r]
Muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) is often lethal and non-MIBC (NMIBC) can recur and progress, yet prognostic markers are currently inadequate. SAM68, a member of RNA-binding proteins, has been reported to contribute to progression of other cancers.
The present study assessed the prevailing level of knowledge about integrated pest management concept and practices among the farmers of Nainital District of Uttarakhand and planned a need-based media intervention of community radio programme with the participation of local people.
The study showed that the majority of the farmers were middle aged (36 to 56 years). More than fifty per cent farmers had education up to high school level and had medium farming experiences. Maximum were marginal farmers and had low annual farm income. Maximum farmers had medium cosmopoliteness and[r]
Gelatine zymography was used to evaluate the levels of expression of MMPs in conditioned media from cultured cells. To generate supernatants for zymography, cells were seeded in six-well plates with complete medium. On the following day, the medium was replaced by starving medium containing[r]
The present study was conducted to assess the sperm morphology and DNA integrity of frozen thawed buffalo semen treated with heparin binding protein (HBP). Buffalo semen straws from 10 bulls were procured from Central Frozen Semen Production and Training Institute, Hesseraghatta, Banglore-560088.
Phomopsis vexans affected stem and fruit of brinjal crop collected from the field and isolated on potato dextrose agar (PDA) produced white cottony growth, sub-aerial mycelial, circular shaped colony with indistinct zonation and good sporulation. Pigmentation is yellow to dark brown colour. Pycnidia[r]
Temperature rise due to climate change is expected to change pathogenicity of the pathogen. Temperature has a significant influence on growth and sporulation of rice leaf blast pathogen (M. oryzae). Both growth and sporulation were increased up to a temperature (27°C) and declined further in respons[r]
Lectins are glycoproteins have the ability to bind carbohydrates. They are involved in biological process such as recognition and binding of carbohydrates, interactions of pathogens, apoptosis, etc. Lectins of different carbohydrate specificities are able to promote growth inhibition or death of bac[r]
Dietary selenium supplementation in the poultry has been regularly practiced using the inorganic and organic forms to enhance the growth and antioxidant defence system. These forms have the limitations of having narrow margin of safety and non specific binding to tissue proteins, hence an alternate[r]
Y-box binding protein-1 is an evolutionary conserved transcription and translation regulating protein that is overexpressed in various human malignancies, including breast cancer. Despite reports of YB-1 and its association with distant spread of breast cancer, the intrinsic mechanism underlying thi[r]

After studying this chapter, you will know: What the purposes of informative and positive messages are, what kinds of newer communication hardware are entering offices, when and how to use common business media effect[r]
crystal structure of leadzyme [29]. Strontium ions,which mimic lead ions, have been bound directly orwater mediated to the N7 position of several purines,mainly guanine tandems. In other RNAs whose struc-tures have been determined with atomic resolution,such as hairpin ribozyme and the P4–P6[r]
An experiment was conducted in nursery condition in Department of Forestry, CCSHAU, Hisar. Pots were filled with different soils media containing field soil (FS), farm yard manure (FYM) and pond silt (PS) were inoculated with two mycorrhizal fungi i.e. Glomus intraradices (G.I) sand Acaulospora scro[r]

The rs2282679 A>C polymorphism in the vitamin D binding protein gene is associated with lower circulating levels of vitamin D. We investigated associations of this SNP with colorectal cancer (CRC) risk and survival and whether the associations vary by dietary vitamin D intake and tumor molecular phe[r]
