Zebrafish (ZF, Danio rerio) has emerged as an important and popular model species to study different human diseases. Key regulators of skeletal development and calcium metabolism are highly conserved between mammals and ZF. The corresponding orthologs share significant sequence similarities and an overlap in expression patterns when compared to mammals, making ZF a potential model for the study...

Decolorisation and biodegradation efficacy of potential strains isolated from dyeing effluent collected from Tirupur region, Tamil Nadu, India were studied in remazol reactive dyes. Two potential strains Clostridium butyricum (EI05) and Clostridium acetobutylicum (EI25) identified by biochemical tests in our previous study were studied for their decolorising efficiency on various remazol reacti...

PURPOSE The authors conducted in vivo assessment of corneal endothelial toxicity of air and SF6 in the feline model. This research was motivated by the increased use of air in anterior segment surgery in human subjects. METHODS This was a prospective masked study. The eyes of 16 healthy adult cats were randomly assigned for the injection of 0.7 mL air into the anterior chamber of one eye and ...

Agent Blue, a mixture of cacodylic acid (CH3) As O2H) and sodium cacodylate (C2H6 AsNaO2), was tactical arsenic-based herbicide used during the Vietnam War to destroy grasses rice crops. Natural synthetic sources arsenic can degrade into water-soluble forms persist in groundwater potentially contribute elevating levels drinking water.

Exit sign lightings shorten evacuation time by informing evacuees of the direction to a safe area . As information included in exit lighting is easily recognized evacuees, required for route choice and probability moving wrong are reduced. In this study, we examined method improve cognitive performance using color. The maximum distance was measured seven colors (red, orange, yellow, green, blue...
