The farm holding size of India has been declining over years as a result of indiscriminate fragmentation of land holding, industrialization and urbanization.Small farm holders including the small and marginal farmers constitute more than 86% of Indian farm families.Under such situation horticulture plays a significant role in contributing Mobility
Evaluation of biosurfactant potential from Brevibacillus sp AVN13 for remediation of hydrocarbons and heavy metals
Bioremediation Youth Spur Straps with the help of biosurfactant is one of the promising technologies in treating the hydrocarbon and heavy metal contaminated sites.Biosurfactant was produced naturally by microorganism and hence biodegradable, which is alternative to chemical surfactant for various applications.In this study the biosurfactant produc
Sarc-Graph: Automated segmentation, tracking, and analysis of sarcomeres in hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes.
A better fundamental understanding of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) has the potential to advance applications ranging from drug discovery to cardiac repair.Automated quantitative analysis of beating hiPSC-CMs is an important and fast developing component of the hiPSC-CM research pipeline.Here we introduce "S
Hepatocyte membrane potential regulates serum insulin and insulin sensitivity by altering hepatic GABA release
Summary: Hepatic lipid accumulation in obesity correlates with the severity of hyperinsulinemia and systemic insulin resistance.Obesity-induced hepatocellular lipid accumulation results in hepatocyte depolarization.We have established that hepatocyte depolarization depresses hepatic afferent vagal nerve firing, increases GABA release from liver sli
Massive gene presence-absence variation shapes an open pan-genome in the Mediterranean mussel
Abstract Background The Mediterranean mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis is an ecologically and economically relevant edible marine bivalve, highly invasive and resilient to biotic and abiotic stressors causing recurrent massive mortalities in other bivalves.Although these traits have been recently linked with the maintenance of a high genetic variat
