Abstract We prepared a consolidated list of edible and therapeutic insects used in Arunachal Pradesh (N.E. India) by two tribal societies (i.e., the Nyishi East Kameng Galo West Siang). The is based on thorough, semi-structured field-interviews with 20 informants each group. At least 81 species local insects, belonging to 26 families five orders namely Coleoptera (24 species), Orthoptera (17 Hemiptera (16 Hymenoptera (15 species) Odonata (9 are being as food among members these indigenous...
Anxiety frequently accompanies low-grade inflammation-associated conditions like depression, insulin resistance, coronary heart disease and metabolic syndrome. The association between anxiety inflammation is, unlike depression inflammation, a very sparsely studied area in general populations. aim of the present study was to investigate whether symptoms as well comorbid depressive are associated with at population level.The population-based Northern Finland 1966 Birth Cohort followed until...
There is growing interest in insects as human food academia, and agricultural industries, public institutions the at large. Yet many of words concepts used to describe these organisms practices surrounding them are still rudimentary, compared diversity themselves existing complexity rapid evolution they aim describe. The goals this paper to: (1) show how roots term ‘entomophagy’ its uses have evolved over time; (2) illustrate some term’s problems that necessitate review; (3) offer...
Cross-sectional and case-control studies were conducted in a US Army unit which had experienced protracted outbreak of viral hepatitis. Serological, demographic, exposure data collected. The cross-sectional study found that there was no association between the prevalence hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection ethnicity, education, rank. There an with age duration assignment to unit. Having social contact identified patient sharing personal hygiene items case significant risk factors for HBV...
Nipples on the surface of moth eye facets exhibit almost perfect broadband anti-reflection properties. We have studied facet micro-protuberances, known as corneal nipples, chestnut leafminer Cameraria ohridella by atomic force microscopy, and simulated optics nipple arrays three-dimensional electromagnetic simulation. The influence dimensions shapes nipples was studied. In particular, shape has a major Furthermore, we transferred structure coatings to amorphous silicon thin film solar cells....
Abstract A consolidated list of edible insects used in the eastern part Arunachal Pradesh (N.E. India) by Wangcho (Wancho) and Nocte tribes Tirap District Shingpo, Tangsa, Deori Chakma Changlang has been prepared. The is based on thorough, semi-structured field-interviews with 20 informants each tribal group. At least 51 insect species, belonging to 9 orders were considered edible. largest number species belonged Coleoptera (14), followed 10 Orthoptera Hymenoptera, Hemiptera, 3 Lepidoptera,...
In this study, cricket chitosan was used as a prebiotic. Lactobacillus fermentum, acidophilus, and Bifidobacterium adolescentis were identified probiotic bacteria. Cricket chitin deacetylated to added either De Man Rogosa Sharpe or Salmonella/Shigella bacterial growth media at the rates of 1%, 5%, 10%, 20% obtain chitosan-supplemented media. The bacteria monitored on after 6, 12, 24, 48 h upon incubation 37 °C. Growth Salmonella typhi in presence evaluated under similar conditions those by...
Objective: To investigate whether sleep disturbances are associated with C-reactive protein (CRP) levels at the population level. Elevated CRP have been found to accompany disturbances, but evidence so far comes only from limited clinical and experimental studies; epidemiological studies lacking. Methods: We utilized Northern Finland 1966 Birth Cohort, whose participants followed up age of 31 years. The hs-enzyme immunoassay method was used measure highly sensitive-CRP (hs-CRP)...
The night flying scarabaeid beetle Anoplognathus provides an example of a dark-adapted clear-zone compound eye in which rays from distant point source, entering by large patch facets, are imperfectly focused upon the receptor layer. optical system was investigated six methods, all give similar results: (1) ray tracing through structures known refractive index, (2) measurement visual fields single receptors, (3) divergence eyeshine, and (4) optomotor response to stripes decreasing width, (5)...
Abstract Arunachal Pradesh, the easternmost part of India, is endowed with diverse natural resources and inhabited by a variety ethnic groups that have developed skills to exploit biotic region for food medicines. Information on animals animal parts as components folk remedies used local healers village headmen Nyishi Galo tribes in their respective West Siang Subansiri districts were obtained through interviews structured questionnaires. Of total 36 vertebrate species treatments ailments...
