plant growth promoting bacteria with various mechanisms such as an increase in uptake and availability of nutrients can improve plant growth. in order to evaluate the effects of biofertilizers and vermicompost on quantitative characteristics and essential oil content of vegetative parts of summer savory, a field experiment was conducted during growing season of 2008- 2009 at agriculture researc...

to normal rats deprived of food for 6h, and the stomach contents were collected after 15min. About 10-12% of the radioactivity of the dose administered was found in the stomach contents, which, when passed through the Sepharose 6B column, gave 65-75 % of the radioactivity in the lipid peak fractions (4-10) collected just after the void volume, as shown in Fig. 1 . The position of this peak is i...

The in vitro antimalarial activities of artemisone and artemisone entrapped in Pheroid vesicles were compared, as was their ability to induce dormancy in Plasmodium falciparum. There was no increase in the activity of artemisone entrapped in Pheroid vesicles against multidrug-resistant P. falciparum lines. Artemisone induced the formation of dormant ring stages similar to dihydroartemisinin. Th...

The variety and galaxy of fungi and their natural beauty occupy prime place in the biological world and India has been the cradle for such fungi. Only a fraction of total fungal wealth has been subjected to scientific scrutiny and mycologists have to unravel the unexplored and hidden wealth one third of fungal diversity of the globe exist in India.. Fungi are not only beautiful but play a signi...

Case report A 53-year-old man underwent an ablation procedure for atrial fibrillation; however, the tip of the Lasso catheter (Biosense Webster, Inc, Diamond Bar, California) used for the ablation was entrapped in the mitral subvalvular apparatus (Figure 1A & B). Despite extensive efforts, the tip of the catheter broke and attempts at extraction were unsuccessful. The catheter tip was entrapped...

Although burr entrapment is a rare complication of rotablation, it is extremely difficult to retrieve a stuck entrapped burr without surgical intervention. There are several techniques typically employed to retrieve an entrapped burr, using bailout endovascular approaches. Herein we have presented a new retrieval method involving a Guideliner child-in-mother catheter combined with a snare, whic...

Egg-shell, egg-yolk and egg-white types of Co/SiO2 catalysts were prepared by utilizing entrapped air to inhibit the entrance of impregnation or leaching solution into the cores of catalyst pellets during the preparation procedure; the entrapped air played the important role because the capillary pressure was reduced to a suitable range by adjusting the concentration of ethanol in the impregnat...
