Promotion of sustainable horticulture via wider use peat substrate substitutes makes wood fiber an increasingly popular component. Interspecific geraniums are plants huge potential in the floriculture market, but there not enough specific guidelines on their cultivation. This study investigated effectiveness enriching with 10%, 20%, 30%, or 40% (by volume) waste pot cultivation interspecific cv...

Surveillance is very important to prevent the nosocomial spread of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), and infection sources and routes have historically been identified using molecular and epidemiological genotyping with pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. However, phage-open reading frame typing (POT) has recently been developed. Here, we investigated whether POT would be useful...

Asavas and arishtas are produced by fermentation in an earthen pot according to textual procedure. The size and shape of the pot and the quantity of the drug. That can be taken in a pot for fermentation is not mentioned in the literature. The present Study was taken up to determine the quantity of drug that can be fermented in an earthen Pot to obtain best results.Dasamularishta was fermented i...

On voiding cystourethrography ( VCU ) not a few patients embarrass the examiner as they can not void on an X-ray table from shame. To allow the patient to void without such embarrassment, we developed a new type of urinary pot named the " VCU pot", which is a gourd -shaped pot made of a vinyl chloride plate. VCU pot is put between the patient's thighs and suspended with a pair of strings from t...

The interaction of retention time in the rumen and concentrate diet on methane production in vitro and acetate:propionate ratio was examined. Twenty-four fistulated sheep were used in a complete factorial design with the sheep randomly divided into 4 groups. The sheep had a 5-wk acclimatization period on an oaten chaff diet, followed by two 3-wk diet phases. Two of the 4 groups were maintained ...

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Improper practices of making direct smears of sputum for detection of acid-fast bacilli (AFB) and of disposing sputum cups are hazardous. The present study was undertaken with the objective to stain sputum samples in their containers by 'phenol (10%) ammonium sulphate (4%) basic fuchsin (2%) solution' and to decolourize and counterstain their smears for detection of AFB-...

The one-pot synthesis of a target molecule in the same reaction vessel is widely considered to be an efficient approach in synthetic organic chemistry. In this review, the characteristics and limitations of various one-pot syntheses of biologically active molecules are explained, primarily involving organocatalytic methods as key tactics. Besides catalysis, the pot-economy concepts presented he...

In general, morphological, physiological, and biochemical properties of fungal cells are drastically different among solid-state (SSC), liquid-surface (LSC), and submerged cultivation (SmC) systems. In addition to these traditional cultivation systems, a unique liquid-surface cultivation [liquid-surface immobilization (LSI)] system and interface cultivation systems [extractive liquid-surface im...

Hypericum perforatum is an intensively studied medicinal plant, and much experimental activity has been addressed to evaluate its bio-agronomical phytochemical features as far. In most cases, plant material used for purposes obtained from wild populations or, alternatively, individuals grown in vases and/or pots. When industrial purposes, the convenient option achieving satisfactory amounts of ...
