The present study investigates the effects of different routes of inulin administration as prebiotic on gut microbiota and survival rate of Indian white shrimp post-larvae. Four hundred and fifty Indian white shrimp post-larvae (PL1) were stocked in nine tanks. The tanks were assigned into three treatments: feeding with inulin-treated (110 mg L-1) Artemia nauplii ...

The previous papers have dealt with fine structure of ciliated cells and columnar absorptive cells of the gut epithelium in the larvae of salmonids and their relatives1-3). However, the exact nature of the columnar absorptive cells in teleost larvae is still far from being satisfactorily understood. It seems better to approach to the problem by taking extensive data from various kinds of larvae...

Emerging data indicate that humans enjoy health through a productive collaboration with their colonizing flora, the majority of whom reside in the colon. This minireview provides a perspective on recent data and the exciting scientific challenges ahead.

In this talk I discuss the problems and virtues of SUSY GUTs in four dimensions. I then show how to solve some of these problems, without foregoing the virtues, by considering an SO(10) SUSY GUT in five dimensions. I discuss gauge coupling unification and neutrino masses. In particular, it is shown that the 5D compactification scale and cutoff scale are determined by fitting the low energy valu...
