In a sustainable agriculture system, application of the fertilizers which are nature friendly and suitable for plants is essential. This becomes more important when dealing with medicinal plants. Therefore, a factorial experiment in a randomized complete block design with three replications was set up in the 2012-2013 on Nigella sativa L. Treatments were nano­fertilizer (Pharmks®) (at 2 levels ...

AIMS To investigate the smooth muscle nature of the spindle stromal cells in the capsule of thyroid tumours and tumour-like lesions. METHODS Immunostaining for high molecular weight caldesmon (HCD), a highly specific marker for smooth muscle differentiation, was performed in 70 primary thyroid tumours and tumour-like lesions (21 hyperplastic nodules, 29 follicular adenomas, five minimally inv...

Extracellular polysaccharides of many bacteria are synthesized by the Wzy polymerase-dependent mechanism, where long-chain polymers are assembled from undecaprenyl-phosphate-linked repeat units on the outer face of the cytoplasmic membrane. In gram-positive bacteria, Wzy-dependent capsules remain largely cell associated via membrane and peptidoglycan linkages. Like many Wzy-dependent capsules, ...

The capsule of the fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans has been studied extensively in recent decades and a large body of information is now available to the scientific community. Well-known aspects of the capsule include its structure, antigenic properties and its function as a virulence factor. The capsule is composed primarily of two polysaccharides, glucuronoxylomannan (GXM) and galacto...

An experiment was conducted at the research farm of Crop Physiology and Ecology Department, Hajee Mohammad Danesh Science and Technology University, Dinajpur, Bangladesh, during November 2013 to April 2014 to determine the growth and yield performance of four varieties of black cumin (Exotic variety, BARI kalozira-1, Faridpur local and Natore local) as influenced by three levels of fertilizers ...

introduction: to recognize the myelinated nerve fibers of the external capsule in human brain. materials and methods: 10 adult and normal brains (20 hemispheres) from both sexes were studied using 15 mm serial sections in all three cardinal planes after fixation and processing. these sections were stained by klüver - barrera and heidenhain - woelcke methods. results: some fibers from different ...

purpose: to evaluate the diagnostic signs, intraoperative complications and postoperative outcomes in children with congenital cataract and pre-existing posterior capsule defect (ppcd). methods: this interventional case series was conducted on 14 eyes of 7 patients who underwent lensectomy-anterior vitrectomy for congenital cataract with ppcd. all children had bilateral cataract. preoperative d...

pain, diarrhea, and weight loss under− went capsule endoscopy after a normal enteroclysis. The capsule study revealed small−bowel ulcers and erosions and a di− agnosis of cryptogenic multifocal ulcer− ous stenosing enteritis was made [1,2] (l" Fig. 1, l" 2). Enteropathy due to non− steroidal anti−inflammatory use, Crohn’s disease, and celiac disease were all ruled out. Asymptomatic capsule rete...

A collagenous protein containing 15 to 19 per cent (12.9 to 16.7 per cent re&idues) hydroxyproline is found in capsules of rabbit lenses. The amount of this protein increases from about 0.6 to about 5 per cent by wet weight between the ages of 4 weeks and 1 year. The capsule contains also sialofucoglycoproteins and an acid mucopolysaccharide. The amount of the two carbohydrate polymers increase...

You need to determine the density of the formulation to answer this question for powder formulation, use the tapped density value. For pellets or granules, use the bulk density. Once you have this information and you know the target till weight, ask the capsule supplier for a capacity chart, such as the one shown in Table.1. Using this chart as an example, encapsulating 500 milligrams of a powd...
