Recently much attention has been paid by horticulturists to light-emitting diodes as a new source of economical and spectral-selective light. The reason is mainly coming from their versatility in handling and mounting, long working time, wattage use efficiency and lower heat production. In this study we examined their potential in promoting seed germination and producing quality flower seedling...

limitations. In a longitudinal study of visceral leishmaniasis in Bangladesh, Bern et al. reported loss of LST sensitivity attributed to antigen-production issues, such as standardization and documentation of sensitivity, potency, and stability of leishmanin antigens (5). Also, prior treatment with immunosuppressive agents, which influence cell-mediated immunity, may decrease LST prognostic pot...
