We present the synthesis, properties, and biological applications of Coppersensor-1 (CS1), a new water-soluble, turn-on fluorescent sensor for intracellular imaging of copper in living biological samples. CS1 utilizes a BODIPY reporter and thioether-rich receptor to provide high selectivity and sensitivity for Cu+ over other biologically relevant metal ions, including Cu2+, in aqueous solution....

supplementary irrigation is a key factor in dryland production of lentil (lens culinaris medik.). in order to study the effects of supplementary irrigation on phenological and morphological characters of three lentil (lens culinaris medik.) cultivars, a trial carried out as split block based on randomized complete block design with three replications at research field of agricultural college, f...

chromocolonoscopy using indigo carmine increases the detection of colorectal polyps remains controversial. Additional indigo carmine spraying during cap-assisted colonoscopy is expected to improve the detection rate of colon polyps, especially adenomatous polyps. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the usefulness of cap-assisted chromocolonoscopy in the proximal colon for routine colonoscop...

abstract an investigation was undertaken to ascertain the influence of hydro-alcoholic solutions on plant growth as well as quality attributes of strawberry fruits. the mother plants of strawberry (fragaria ananasa cv. gaviota) were subjected to various aqueous solutions of ethanol (15, 30%), methanol (15, 30%) and the mixture of ethanol + methanol (15 or 30%) plus the control (water only) as f...

Intermittently connected mobile networks are wireless networks where most of the time there does not exist a complete path from a source to a destination. Researchers have proposed flooding based schemes for routing in such networks. While flooding based schemes are robust and have a high probability of delivery, they suffer from a huge overhead in terms of bandwidth, buffer space and energy di...

Alien chromosome substitution (CS) lines are treated as vital germplasms for breeding and genetic mapping. Previously, a whole set of nine Brassica rapa-oleracea monosonic alien addition lines (MAALs, C1-C9) was established in the background of natural B. napus genotype "Oro," after the restituted B. rapa (RBR) for Oro was realized. Herein, a monosomic substitution line with one alien C1 chromo...

The present research examined the temporal distribution of responding in a lick suppression paradigm. In Experiment 1, rats were trained with either a 30- or a 120-s conditioned stimulus (CS), which was followed either by a footshock (unconditioned stimulus [US]) or nothing. Licking during the CS was suppressed only in the former condition. Suppression was more pronounced early in the CS. In Ex...
