Mitigation of 131-I induced oxidative stress by supplementation turmeric and green cardamom in thyroid patients

Proleptonchoides southindiae n. gen., n. sp. (Dorylaimida: Leptonchidae), is described from soil around false tobacco (Lobelia excelsa) and cardamom (Elettaria cardamomurn) in South India. P. southindiae is prodelphic, has a short constricted esophageal bulb and flanged odontophore, and is phylogenetically close to Proleptonchus.

The genome of Ralstonia solanacearum CaRs_Mep, a race 4/biovar 3/phylotype I bacterium causing wilt in small cardamom and other Zingiberaceae plants, was sequenced. Analysis of the 5.7-Mb genome sequence will aid in better understanding of the genetic determinants of host range, host jump, survival, pathogenicity, and virulence of race 4 of R. solanacearum.

A cough occurs suddenly and often repetitively which helps to clear the large breathing passages from secretions, irritants, foreign particles and microorganisms. Coughing can be due to a respiratory tract infection such as the common cold, acute bronchitis, pneumonia, pertussis, flu and smoking or health problems such as asthma, tuberculosis and lung cancer. Substantial uses of folk remedies f...

Context: The essential oils are being tried as potential candidates for pest and disease management. Several essential oils of botanical origin have been reported for their repellant, toxic and developmental inhibitory activities. The ovicidal effect of essential oil is probably the major factor in the suppression of the development of adults from treated eggs. Objectives: To investigate the ov...

Abstract. Land–atmosphere carbon and water exchanges have large uncertainty in terrestrial biosphere models (TBMs). Using observations to reduce TBM structural parametric errors is a critical priority for both understanding accurately predicting fluxes. Recent implementations of the Bayesian CARbon DAta–MOdel fraMework (CARDAMOM) yielded key insights into ecosystem cycling. CARDAMOM estimates p...

abstract aims: spices are sources of many bioactive compounds that can improve the taste of food as well as affecting the digestion and metabolism. along with that, they may also contain some substances as heavy metals, which have harmful effects on the body. the aim of present study was to assess the potential health risk of cr, cu, fe and zn contents of cardamom, curry powder and turmeric in ...
