Anaerobic co-digestion has been widely investigated, but there is limited analysis of interaction between substrates. The objective of this work was to assess the role of carbohydrates, protein and lipids in co-digestion behaviour separately, and together. Two sets of batch tests were done, each set consisting of the mono-digestion of three substrates, and the co-digestion of seven mixtures. Th...

A new genus and species of nasutitermitine termites are described and illustrated, based on soldier and worker characters. Sinqasapatermesgen. n., can be distinguished from all other nasutitermitine genera by its singular worker gut coiling and enteric valve characters: distal margin of the enteric valve not everted into the paunch but bending towards the ileum, that is, directed against the fl...

The present investigation was carried out on 1,070 local goats named as Udgiri goat in 242 villages from Marathwada and western Maharashtra during 2018 to 2021. average body weight of adult male is 42.77±3.94 kg while female 32.98±3.44 highest than any other recognized indigenous breeds Maharashtra. length 76.53±3.53 cm, height at withers 74.65±1.65 chest girth 74.46±1.72 paunch 73.54±3.88 tail...

AIM In the present study, biometric traits (body length [BL], heart girth [HG], paunch girth (PG), forelimb length (FLL), hind limb length (HLL), face length, forehead width, forehead length, height at hump, hump length (HL), hook to hook distance, pin to pin distance, tail length (TL), TL up to switch, horn length, horn circumference, and ear length were studied in 218 adult hill cattle of Him...

The present study was undertaken to identify the best estimator(s) of body weight based on various linear morphometric measures in Landlly pigs using artificial neural network (ANN) and non-linear regression models at three life stages (4th, 6th 8th week). Twenty-four different measurements were taken 279 piglets individually all their correlations with elucidated. traits high correlation (≥0.8...

health management, the natural bias is actually towards pessimism. And this is precisely why it takes a dose of contrived optimism, riding on fake treatment, to restore confidence in the wisdom of self-cure. a Keynesian twist We likened the health governor to a hospital manager who has to manage the economics of health care. We'll end with a rather different economic analogy for placebo medicin...
