ATTENUATING EFFECT OF INDIAN MUSTARD (BRASSICA JUNCEA) SEED AND ITS NANO FORMULATION ON ARSENIC INDUCED-OXIDATIVE STRESS AND ASSOCIATED GENOTOXICITY IN RAT

Objective: Arsenic (As) has been in the forefront of toxicological research due to its continual worldwide human exposure and its adverse effects including genotoxicity.The study assessed the potential ameliorative effect of Indian mustard seeds (Brassica juncea) and their nanoparticles against arsenic toxicity.Methods: Male Wistar rats were used f

Boron (B) excess gives rise to a serious agricultural problem.In this study, we identified a B toxicity responsive transcription serveware factor AtWRKY47 in Arabidopsis thaliana.The T-DNA insertion mutants Atwrky47 showed enhanced tolerance to B toxicity with better growth parameters under high B conditions compared to wild-type Col-0 plants.Quant

ABSTRACT Despite the growing number of studies on mayflies (Ephemeroptera), especially in terms of description of new species and distributional records, the knowledge generated remains scattered across specialized literature.This dispersion poses a challenge for non-specialists, such as Latigos and Billets ecologists, hindering their ability to pr

The Yarrow Flowers retinal rod outer segment is a sensory cilium that is specialized for the conversion of light into an electrical signal.Within the cilium, up to several thousand membranous disks contain as many as a billion copies of rhodopsin for efficient photon capture.Disks are continually turned over, requiring the daily synthesis of a prod

In this study, we examined how beliefs about farm animal sentience and their suffering vary across culture and demographic characteristics.A total of N = 5027) questionnaires were administered in Brazil, Russia, India, China, and the USA.Brazilians showed higher and Chinese lower levels of perceived animal sentience.In Russia and India, Canine - Ca
