چکیده

background: in the light of various applications of uv laser in biological system, we have investigated the effect of picosecond uv laser radiation on silkworm bombyx mori. materials and methods: the eggs of nb4d2 of different stages were exposed to pico second pulse laser at 355 nm from nd:yag laser for different durations. results: due to irradiation alterations in crescent larval body markings, pupae with transpositioned antennae, pseudo abdominal and caudal legs were produced from 2 and 8 hr old embryos irradiated for 30 and 50 seconds respectively. moths devoid of antennae and underdeveloped legs were also produced from 16 and 8 hr old embryos irradiated for 60 and 50 seconds respectively. the morphological anomalies were found highest in picosecond (6.16%) compare to nanosecond (1%) irradiated embryos at 8 and 16 hrs respectively and it is duration dependent. sds-page analysis of embryo revealed the occurrence of a 41 kda new protein and delayed utilization of yolk proteins in the irradiated embryos. the larval haemolymph protein profile also exhibited 24, 25 and 6.2 kda new protein bands. embryo hatching, larval weight and cocooning rate was significantly affected and declined as duration of irradiation increases. conclusion: it is clear from the present study that morphological anomalies and distinct variations in egg and haemolymph proteins establish a strong evidence that uv picosecond laser not only cause damage on embryonic cells but also interfere in transcriptional factors encode for organogenesis and proteins. thus present study envisage the use of uv laser irradiation as a potential tool in investigating the embryonic and postembryonic development and cross-linking between dna and protein using silkworm b. mori as molecular model. iran. j. radiat. res., 2011 9(2): 127-137

Ontogenic Changes in Haemolymph Biochemical Composition in the Silkworm, Bombyx mori L under Thermal Stress

The biochemical composition of haemolymph was studied during larval and pupal period in the mulberry silkworm, Bombyx mori. The silkworm is normally reared at 25±1°C and 70±5 % RH and 31°C and 36°C constitute temperature stress conditions for the domesticated silkworm. When the larvae and pupae were exposed to selected higher temperatures, a significant decrease in the protein levels of haemoly...

UV impact on the digestive physiology of Bombyx mori L

MR 2 variety mulberry leaves were sterilized with UV light for 5, 10 and 15 minutes. These leaves were fed to PM x NB 4 D 2 hybrid silkworm Bombyx mori Linn. life stages and recorded the macromolecular contents (total protein, reducing sugar and glycogen) and digestive enzymes (amylase, invertase and protease) activities. Results revealed feeding of silkworm B. mori with UV treated mulberry lea...

Sub-picosecond UV laser ablation of metals

Laser ablation of Nickel, Copper, Molybdenum, Indium, Tungsten and Gold by short ultraviolet laser pulses (0.5 ps, 248 nm) in vacuum is reported for the first time. For Nickel and Indium, ablation is also studied in air to demonstrate the influence of the ambient atmosphere. Metal ablation in air is significantly less efficient than in vacuum due to redeposition of ablated material. The ablatio...

Synergetic Effects of Potassium and Magnesium Chloride on Biochemical Contents of the Silkworm, Bombyx mori L.

The present study deals with the oral supplementation with (50, 100 and 150 ?g/ml) synergetic effect of potassium and magnesium chloride on the fat body glycogen, protein, total lipids and haemolymph trehalose, protein of fifth instar larvae of Bombyx mori L (Lepidoptera: Bombycidae). The observed parameters significantly increased in all the treated groups when compared with those of the corre...

Autophagy studies in Bombyx mori

Autophagy, which is well conserved from yeast to mammals, plays essential roles in development and diseases. Using the domesticated silkworm, Bombyx mori, as a model insect, several reports on autophagy have been made recently. Autophagic features are observed in the midgut and fat body during the larval-pupal transition as well as the silk gland and ovarian nurse cells during the pupal stage. ...
