Alterations in the muscle fibres, the myoneural junctions, and intramuscular nerves were observed. These data are not compatible with the widespread notion that motility disturbances in this syndrome are solely due to mechanical limitations.

Biodiesel production was examined with Scenedesmus obliquus in a recirculatory aquaculture system with fish pond discharge and poultry litter to couple with waste treatment. Lipid productivity of 14,400 liter ha(-1) year(-1) was projected with 11 cultivation cycles per year. The fuel properties of the biodiesel produced adhered to Indian and international standards.

Posterior subtenon injections of steroidal drugs are commonly used to treat various chorioretinal inflammatory diseases. Subsequent strabismus is rare, but it is associated with severe visual disturbance when present. We report a case of simultaneous bilateral inferior oblique muscle paresis in a 60-year-old man who developed it after receiving intravitreal injections of bevacizumab and posteri...
