This cross-sectional study examined the association between environmental lead measurements surrounding a Los Angeles County battery recycling facility and the blood lead levels of the children living nearby. Environmental lead measurements and blood lead levels of young children living in a community adjacent to a stationary lead source were compared to those living in a community without a st...

The effect of different concentrations of hexavalent Cr on growth and biochemical parameters of two T. aestivum cultivars (Punjab-11 and Sehar-06) was investigated. No significant inhibition of seed germination was observed in both the cultivars at all the tested concentrations (P ˃ 0.05). A significant decrease in root length for both the cultivars was observed at all the Cr concentrations as ...

General perception about the colonial state to have impinged only upon the political and economic aspects of the colony is not the whole truth. The author scrutinizes the question of identity and the process of transformation it went through primarily because of the preference accorded to Urdu over the native Punjabi. He therefore interrogates Partha Chatterjee’s postulate of ‘inner domain’ or ...

Hemoglobin (Hb) D. Punjab [β121(GH4) Glu→Gln; HBB: C.364G>C] and β0-thalassemia 3.4 kb deletion are very rare in the Thai population. For the first time, the coinheritance of HbD-Punjab with β0-thalassemia 3.4 kb deletion was reported in a 7-year-old Thai girl. She had mild anemia (Hb 115.0 g/L and mean corpuscular hemoglobin 18.1 pg) with red blood cell microcytosis (mean corpuscular volume 52...

Wheat is notorious for callus induction, which is a major hindrance in direct gene transfer and consequently for genetic improvement programs. In order to provide a successful platform for gene transformation, good callus quantity and quality is important. We investigated the variation in callus induction capabilities of Pakistani wheat cultivars and measured the reducing sugar content in the i...
