Abstract An oligoarray analysis was conducted to determine the differential expression of genes due phenobarbital exposure in Drosophila melanogaster ( w 1118 strain) third instar larvae. Seventeen were observed be induced with increased by a statistical microarrays approach q ≤ 0.05. At 0.12, four more Cyp12d1, DmGstd4 , and two unknown function) found up‐regulated, 11 function down‐regulated. Fifteen these genes, Cyp4d14, Cyp6a2 Cyp6a8 Cyp12d1 Cyp6d5 Cyp6w1 CG2065, DmGstd6, DmGstd7...
Abstract One function of plant lectins such as wheat germ agglutinin is to serve defences against herbivorous insects. The midgut one critical site affected by dietary lectins. We observed marked cellular, structural and gene expression changes in the midguts Drosophila melanogaster third instar larvae that were fed agglutinin. Some these similar those starved D. . Dietary caused shortening, branching, swelling, distortion some cases disintegration microvilli. Starvation was accompanied...
To prepare for the exploitation of deep-buried polyhalite resources, phase equilibria ternary system K+//Cl–, SO42–-H2O, Mg2+//Cl–, SO42–-H2O and quaternary K+, at 363.2 K were investigated by using isothermal dissolution method. The solubility density systems measured experimentally, related diagrams vs composition plotted. are simple K. Both have one invariant point corresponding to solid phases sylvite (KCl) + arcanite (K2SO4) bischofite (MgCl2·6H2O) kieserite (MgSO4·H2O), respectively....
The solid–liquid phase equilibria of the quaternary system Na+, Mg2+, Ca2+//Cl––H2O at T = 348.2 and 363.2 K were studied by isothermal dissolution method. space diagram, water content densities versus composition diagrams plotted based on measured data. study reveals that K, comprise two invariant points, five univariant curves, four crystallization regions. These regions correspond to formation three single salts; NaCl, CaCl2·2H2O, MgCl2·6H2O, a double salt, 2MgCl2·CaCl2·12H2O, same...
To enrich the thermodynamic data and exploit valuable components in polyhalite, we utilized isothermal dissolution method to examine solid–liquid phase equilibria of quaternary Na+, K+, Ca2+//Cl––H2O at 348.2 363.2 K. The compositions equilibrium solid phases were analyzed utilizing X-ray particle diffraction (XRD). formation double salt KCl·CaCl2 occurred temperatures diagram illustrates this relationship with two invariant points, five univariate curves, four crystal regions. By examining...
In order to develop and utilize polyhalite (K2SO4·MgSO4·2CaSO4·2H2O), solid–liquid phase equilibria of the quaternary system K+, Mg2+, Ca2+ // SO42––H2O ternary systems were studied by isothermal dissolution method at 323.2 K. The results show that only one double salt, K2SO4·CaSO4·H2O, is formed in K; has no salt formation diagram (323.2 K) consists five invariant points, ten univariable curves, six crystal regions (two single salts K2SO4, MgSO4·6H2O, CaSO4·2H2O three K2SO4·MgSO4·4H2O,...
Bowman-Birk inhibitor (BBI) is toxic when fed to certain insects, including the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster. Dietary BBI has been demonstrated slow growth and increase insect mortality by inhibiting digestive enzymes trypsin chymotrypsin, resulting in a reduced supply of amino acids. In mammals, influences cellular energy metabolism. Therefore, we tested hypothesis that dietary affects energy-associated pathways D. melanogaster midgut. Through microarray metabolomic analyses, show...
