Rotifers were cultured with five different organic and inorganic fertilizers in nursery ponds. Of the fertilizers used, mustard oil cake gave significantly (p < 0.01) higher production of rotifers than that of mohua oil cake followed by cow-dung, wheat bran, mixture of NPK and control. The higher production of rotifers was directly related with the higher doses of fertilizers. Among the rotifer species identified, the abundance of Brachionus caudatus and B. forficula were significantly (p < 0.01) higher than others. Available N, available P, exchangeable K and exchangeable Ca and exchangeable Mg were generally higher in ponds where organic fertilizers were used. Proximate composition of rotifers varied depending on the kinds of fertilizers. The multiple correlations of physico-chemical properties were highly significant (p < 0.01) with the growth and production of B. caudatus (R = 0.995), B. forficula (R = 0.932), Trichocerca capucina (R = 0.917), B. patulus (R = 0.901) and B. angularis (R = 0.892) and simply significant (p < 0.05) in the case of Keratella tropica (R = 0.880), Hexarthra intermadia (R = 0.875), B. calyciflorus (R = 0.864) and Filinia spp. (R = 0.856) contributing 91.20%, 86.86%, 84.09%, 81.18%, 79.57%, 77.44%, 76.56%, 74.65% and 73.27% of total effect of water properties on the growth of these species, respectively. The residual effect of nine different physico-chemical properties of water on the production of rotifers was 78.92% which indicates that these properties of water had only 21.08% influence on the production of rotifers. 相似文献
Eighteen children with ADD/ADHD, some of whom were also LD, ranging in ages from 5 through 15 were randomly assigned to one of two conditions. The experimental condition consisted of 40 45-minute sessions of training in enhancing beta activity and suppressing theta activity, spaced over 6 months. The control condition, waiting list group, received no EEG biofeedback. No other psychological treatment or medication was administered to any subjects. All subjects were measured at pretreatment and at posttreatment on an IQ test and parent behavior rating scales for inattention, hyperactivity, and aggressive/defiant (oppositional) behaviors. At posttreatment the experimental group demonstrated a significant increase (mean of 9 points) on the K-Bit IQ Composite as compared to the control group (p<.05). The experimental group also significantly reduced inattentive behaviors as rated by parents (p<.05). The significant improvements in intellectual functioning and attentive behaviors might be explained as a result of the attentional enhancement affected by EEG biofeedback training. Further research utilizing improved data collection and analysis, more stringent control groups, and larger sample sizes are needed to support and replicate these findings.This research was supported by an equipment grant by Autogenics Systems.

Epidermal growth factor (EGF)-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins was examined in cells expressing wild-type (WT-EGFR) EGF receptors or EGF receptors truncated at residue 973 (973-EGFR). A much broader spectrum of tyrosine phosphorylated proteins was found following EGF treatment of 973-EGFR expressing cells compared with cells expressing wild-type receptors. Several additional ras GTPase activating protein-associated tyrosine phosphorylated proteins were found in EGF-treated 973-EGFR cells relative to WT-EGFR cells. Additional tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins were also found to co-immunoprecipitate with phospholipase C gamma 1 (PLC gamma 1) following EGF treatment of cells expressing 973-EGFR relative to cells expressing WT-EGFR. EGF-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC gamma 1 was found in cells expressing WT-EGFR, but not in cells expressing 973-EGFR. WT-EGF receptor from EGF-treated cells bound well to bacterially expressed src homology (SH) regions of PLC gamma 1 and to a lesser extent to bacterially expressed GTPase activating protein SH regions. No binding of 973-EGF receptor to SH regions of either protein could be detected. EGF treatment greatly reduced the half-life of WT-EGFR, but had relatively little effect on the half-life of 973-EGFR. EGF induced internalization of 973-EGFR at a slower rate than WT-EGFR and caused the appearance of discrete receptor degradation products for both cell types. The data indicate that truncation of the EGF receptor at residue 973 alters receptor substrate specificity, decreases the rate of receptor internalization, and has an inhibitory effect on receptor degradation. 相似文献

Length weight relationships (LWR) of five marine fishes were estimated from the Bay of Bengal, Bangladesh. Fish samples were collected occasionally from fisher's catch with gill net (mesh size: 3 cm) during November 2019 to October 2020. Fishing was done overnight. Total length (0.1 cm) and body weight (0.01 g) of each individual were measured. We recorded maximum total length for P. maculatus (55.0 cm) and P. parmatus (39.0 cm). 相似文献
A new photonic crystal fiber (PCF)–based, hollow-core, optical waveguide is proposed and numerically investigated to quickly identify numerous species of cancerous cells in the human body. Typical and cancerous cells have different refractive indices (RIs), and via this characteristic, the other important optical parameters are evaluated. The guiding properties of this proposed cancer cell sensor are analyzed in the COMSOL Multiphysics environment which used the finite element method as mathematical tool to solve differential equations. Furthermore, to ensure the highest simulation accuracy, extremely fine mesh elements are introduced. The simulation studies confirm that the proposed sensor, at 2.5 THz, achieves an extremely high relative sensitivity of almost 98% with negligible loss (< 0.025 dB/cm). Furthermore, a high numerical aperture (NA) and spot size, with low modal area, enhance the propagation characteristics of the sensor to a new height. The sensor’s physical structure is very simple so that it can be easily fabricated with modern fabrication technology. Thus, it seems that this sensor will open a new door in the field of detecting and diagnosing different cancer cells.
