Abstract Background The effect of oral Cannabidiol (CBD) on interference during learning and memory (L&M) in healthy human volunteers has not been studied. Method A two-arm crossover, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was conducted at Colorado State University Pueblo (CSU Pueblo) to evaluate the effects 246 mg CBD L&M adults. Among 57 enrolled, 35 were included analyses. For assessment L&M, Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MOCA) used verbal baseline cognitive...

The psoralens are naturally occurring metabolites found in many crop plants; synthetic forms of 5-methoxypsoralen (bergapten) and 8-methoxypsoralen (xanthotoxin) widely used skin photochemotherapy. Our previous research documented that dietary bergapten xanthotoxin reduced birthrates female rats when males females were exposed to these chemicals. present study was designed determine the cause this birthrate whether resulted from direct impact on females. demonstrates administered, either...

The psoralens are naturally occurring secondary metabolites in plants, including many fruits and vegetables. Health risks have been associated with handling or ingesting psoralen-containing the use of synthetic photochemotherapy skin disorders. Our research has demonstrated that administration bergapten (5-methoxypsoralen) xanthotoxin (8-methoxypsoralen) diet female rats reduced birthrates, number implantation sites, pups, corpora lutea, full empty uterine weight, circulating estrogen levels...

Abstract Two Apium accessions were compared with the commercial cultivar ‘Tall Utah’ 52–70R ( A. graveolens [L.]) for resistance to Spodoptera exigua (Hübner)(Lepidoptera: Noctuidae). Oviposition rate was not significantly different between three genotypes. In all accessions, eggs usually placed on upper half of plants. Implications this oviposition pattern S. management in celery are discussed. The wild species prostratum ssp var filiform (A230) showed a higher than 52–70R. levels...

Plant physiological growth stage and growing environment significantly interacted with celery (Apium graveolens L.) genotypes to influence the expression of genetic resistance beet armyworm, Spodoptera exigua (Hübner). vegetative growth, as measured by plastochron index, was primarily linear time showed no major season-related variations. Insect developmental times from egg pupa adult largest variations during this study, significant genotype-by-season, genotype-by-plant stage,...

Pueblo, Colorado has a long history of smelting activities, and recent studies raised concerns about lead exposure. This study tested 240 children in Pueblo for blood levels (BLLs) found significant association between distance from old smelters BLLs. Around 7.5% had BLLs above the Centers Disease Control Prevention reference level 5 µg/dL elevated BLL, 18.3% 3.3⁻4.9 µg/dL. Out 36 who lived near former smelters, 13.9% vs. 6.37% living away smelters. The proportion with BLL was...

Field experiments were conducted in 1988 to evaluate newly converted sorghum, Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench, germplasm for both whorl and panicle resistance feeding by larvae of the fall armyworm (FAW), Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith). In whorl-stage study, over 20 30 entries significantly more resistant FAW than check at 7 14 days after infestation, respectively. Significant differences also found among number that established per 4 infestation.

Differential developmental responses of fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (]. E. Smith), were compared after larvae fed milk stage spikelets (complete florets) field-grown converted sorghum (Sorghum bleolor (L.) Moench) accessions incorporated into a meridic diet. Larvae diet supplemented with ‘International Sorghum (IS) 12592 Converted (C)’ significantly smaller those the released resistant hybrid ‘Northrup King Savanna 5’. Feeding on containing...

Despite the phasing out of leaded gasoline, lead-based paint and plumbing, lead (Pb) remains a public health risk. Toxicity Pb occurs primarily due to its inhibition key enzymes in biosynthesis heme, compound required for oxygen biding bloodstream. One these is δ-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase (ALAD), main binding ligand erythrocytes. The ALAD enzyme encoded by gene. This gene has two co-dominant alleles (ALAD1 ALAD2), three genotypes (ALAD1-1, ALAD1-2 ALAD2-2) dozens detected single...
