Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) can induce curative graft-versus-tumor reactions in patients with hematological malignancies and solid tumors. The graft-versus-tumor reaction after human histocompatibility leukocyte antigen (HLA)-identical SCT is mediated by alloimmune donor T cells specific for polymorphic minor histocompatibility antigens (mHags). Among these, the mHag HA-1 was fou...

OBJECTIVE Hyaluronan (HA) is an important extracellular matrix component and is involved in fluid homeostasis, tissue repair, and response to infections. Previous studies have shown that supplementation of dialysis fluid with high molecular weight HA may have a positive impact on peritoneal solute and fluid transport characteristics. In the present study, we investigated the impact of HA on the...

At the Central Research Farm of Sam Higginbottom University Agriculture, Technology And Sciences, Prayagraj, an experiment on chickpea was carried out to test "Field efficacy and economics selected insecticides bio-Pesticides against pod borer [Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner)] (Cicer arietinum L.) at Prayagraj" during rabi season 2022-2023. Effectiveness biopesticides viz., T1 Chlorantraniliprole...

To reduce the environmental burden of agriculture, suitable methods to comprehend and assess the impact on natural resources are needed. One of the methods considered is the life cycle assessment (LCA) method, which was used to assess the environmental impacts of 18 grassland farms in three different farming intensities — intensive, extensified, and organic — in the Allgäu region in southern Ge...

The effects of vermicomposts on plant parasitic, fungivorous and baterivorous nematode populations were investigated in grape (Vitis vinifera) and strawberry (Fragaria ananasa) field crops. Commercially-produced vermicomposts derived from recycled paper, and supermarket food waste were applied to replicated plots at the rates of 2.5 t ha–1 or 5.0 t ha–1 for the grape crop and 5.0 t ha–1 or10 t ...

The effects of Trigonella foenum graecum (TF) and Foeniculum vulgare (FV) seeds powder on antimicro-bial activity and performance of broiler chickens were studied. Based on a completely randomized design, 240 broiler chicks (Ross 308) were assigned to 4 treatments and 4 replicates. The treatments were a basal diet (control, T 1), T 1 plus 0.5% TF (T 2), T 1 plus 0.5% FV (T 3) and TFFV (0.25% TF...

In this study, the effects of nitrogen fertilizer and plant growth regulator (ethephon) application on leaf chlorophyl, stem height and diameter, stalk yield, total sugar and bioethanol of sweet sorghum were determined. Four nitrogen treatments 0, 100, 200 and 300 Kg Urea ha-1 and four ethephon concentrations 0, 800, 1000, and 1200 ppm were applied on sweet sorghum in a split plot on randomized...
