plant tissue culture is an alternative method of commercial propagation and is being used widely for the commercial propagation of a large number of plant species, including many medicinal plants. somatic embryogenesis is a process by which asexual or somatic cells are induced to form embryos in culture. somatic embryogenesis is a multi-step regeneration process starting with formation of pro-e...

In this cross-sectional study, all subjects attending a community based mental health clinic were examined with the objective to understand the presenting problems and to find out whether somatic complaints were the chief complaint, whether the somatic complaint produced any disability in financial, occupational and social spheres. Also an attempt is made to identify somatizing disorders using ...

It has been suggested that enlarged values of morphological measurements manifesting obesity intensify the risk of sleep disturbances. The main goal of this work was to find a set of predictor morphometric variables that best distinguish between the mutually exclusive groups of interest, the well and the ill – i.e., those who suffer from obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) syndrome, and healthy pati...

This study attempts to look into the energetic status of demersal fish species with their maturity stages and evaluate their energetic condition. Demersal fish species from wild were captured, total length and weight of each fish were measured and gonads were observed, weighted and collected with fish flesh. Gonadosomatic index, water content of gonad and flesh and gonadal and somatic caloric v...

the aim of this study was to analyze the stress response during 3 hours net confinement stress and recovery period of 22 hours in normal (std) and in 17α-hydroxylase deficient common carp (e5). fish were raised for 6 months and sampled at t0 (control, unstressed), 5 minutes, 20 minutes, 1 hour and 3 hours of exposure to net confinement, and after 1 hour, 4 hours, and 22 hours of recovery. at ev...

Increases in milk yield from genetic selection may be accompanied by correlated increases in genetic susceptibility to clinical mastitis and somatic cells. Unlike clinical mastitis, somatic cell scores can be easily determined and recorded and are related to milk loss from subclinical mastitis. Selection against high somatic cell scores should decrease incidence of clinical mastitis and provide...

nitrogen components of yoghurt milk samples and resulting probiotic set yoghurt weredetermined. analyses included total nitrogen (tn), non-casein nitrogen (ncn), non-proteinnitrogen (npn), casein nitrogen (cn) and proteolysis index (pi). yoghurt samples wereanalyzed 1, 7, 14 and 21days after production and storage at 5±1°c. tn, cn and pi contentsof yoghurt milk samples with high somatic cell sc...
