In vitro growth of explant (juice vesicle or albedo tissues) cultures from citron (Citrus medica), lemon (C. limon), grapefruit (C. paradisi), sweet orange (C. sinensis), and mandarin (C. reticulata) fruits was stimulated by addition of orange juice (10% v/v optimum) to a basal medium containing Murashige and Skoog salts, 50 grams per liter sucrose, 100 milligrams per liter myo-inositol, 5 mill...

In this study, 3 mm thick quince slices were dipped in bitter orange (BO), tangerine (Citrus deliciosa Mediterranean) (CDM), (O), reticulata Owari) (CRO), pomegranate (P) juices and a non-pre-treatment (control) dried at an air temperature of 70 °C velocity 1.5 m/s. According to the results pre-treatment trials, drying time was found be minimum 121 min 5 dipping reach safe moisture content 10% ...

We have localized a guanine nucleotide-binding protein, Go, in rat brain by immunohistochemistry with a selective polyclonal antiserum to the alpha 39 subunit of Go. Specific staining is widely distributed, abundant in neuropil, absent from neuronal cell bodies, and displays regional heterogeneity. Staining is enriched in cerebral cortex, particularly the molecular layer, neuropil of the hippoc...

Volcanic crater lakes scattered throughout western Uganda are important local sources of water and fish. Two representative but contrasting crater lakes near the Kibale National Park were sampled in 2000; the hyper-eutrophic Lake Saka, which is highly affected by agricultural practices, and the mesotrophic Lake Nkuruba that is still surrounded by intact forest. The food web structures in these ...
