Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) have become the leading cause of disability and death worldwide, particularly in low- middle-income countries. Hypertension, a major CVD progression, is widely attributable to genetic, behavioral, environmental risk factors. Among genetic reasons, angiotensin II enzyme, produced as result abnormal functioning renin⁻angiotensin system, reported foremost hypertension. A cascade genes, including those encoding for WNK kinases (WNK1 WNK4), Bp1, Bp2,...

The aim of this work was to investigate and compare the antiproliferative, antioxidant antibacterial activities Rosmarinus officinalis essential oil, native Pakistan. oil content from leaves R. 0.93 g 100g-1. GC GC-MS analysis revealed that major components determined in were 1,8-cineol (38.5%), camphor (17.1%), α-pinene (12.3%), limonene (6.23%), camphene (6.00%) linalool (5.70%). antiproliferative activity tested against two cancer (MCF-7 LNCaP) one fibroblast cell line (NIH-3T3) using MTT...

Pollution is severely threatening the wetland habitats. Heavy metals are one among of major pollutants in The cadmium (Cd), copper (Cu), chromium (Cr), cobalt (Co), lead (Pb), mercury (Hg), nickel (Ni) and zinc (Zn), were assessed water, sediment, benthic species (polychaetes, mollusc crustaceans), prawn fishes. assessment heavy was done by using double-beam Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS). Hg, Cr Co greater Ni Cd higher polychaetes molluscs respectively. However, Cu Pb crabs Zinc...

Background The common carp is an important aquaculture species that widely distributed across the world. During long history of domestication, numerous strains with diverse skin colors have been established. Skin color used as a visual criterion to determine market value carp. However, genetic basis has not extensively studied. Methodology/Principal Findings In this study, we performed Illumina sequencing on two strains: reddish Xingguo red and brownish-black Yellow River A total 435,348,868...

The present work aims to synthesize zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles via green approaches using leaf extract of Parthenium hysterophorus. UV–vis and FT-IR tests confirmed the existence biomolecules, active materials, metal oxides. X-ray diffraction structural study exposes ZnO formation with hexagonal phase structures. SEM TEM analysis reveal surface morphologies most them are spherical a size range 10 nm. were revealed strong antimicrobial activity against both bacterial fungal strains....

Owing to white meat production Labeo rohita have vast economic importance, but its population has been reduced drastically in River Chenab due pollution. Atomic absorption spectrophotometry showed a merciless toxicity level of Cd, Cu, Mn, Zn, Pb, Cr, Sn and Hg. Comet assay results indicated significant (p < .05) DNA fragmentation as 42.21 ± 2.06%, 31.26 2.41% 21.84 2.21% comet tail, tail moment 17.71 1.79, 10.30 1.78 7.81 1.56, olive 13.58 1.306, 8.10 1.04 5.88 0.06, respectively, from three...

A novel enzyme-free photoelectrochemical (PEC) immunoassay was developed for the ultrasensitive detection of prostate specific antigen (PSA) based on DNA-mediated nanoscale zirconium-porphyrin MOFs (NMOFs). By virtue intrinsic coordination between unsaturated zirconium sites NMOFs frameworks and phosphonate groups, 5′-phosphorylared ss-DNA-tagged antibody (Ab-DNA) conjugate with a consecutive stretch guanines as spacer could be loaded easily, obtaining type Ab-DNA-functionalized complex....

Most microorganisms are used as a foundation of bioplastic production and also for the decomposition plastics. Although bioplastics is considered expensive than artificial plastic, it has many advantages over them. Some bio-polymers have gained public acceptance now being produced. The useful breakdown plastic bags takes more thousand years. For plastics, should be calculated extensively so that solid wastes can decomposed. Thus, microbes been played an important role in decompose well

Nanoparticles (NPs) have become very important owing to their various uses. In this research, an environmentally friendly biological technique was used synthesize silver nanoparticles with Coriandrum sativum L. The objective of research use the source for fabrication NPs from C. L., and check activity fabricated determined versus a couple gram negative positive bacteria in presence antibiotic viz. gentamicin judge impact.A nitrate solution, which served as reducing capping agent, mingled...

The aim of the present study was to examine effects dietary inclusion fermented poultry by-product meal (FPBM) on growth performance, digestive enzymes activity, innate immunity, and antioxidant capacity in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). A basal diet containing fish soybean considered as a control (Con), four other diets were produced by 10, 20, 30, or 40% FPBM (FPBM10, FPBM20, FPBM30, FPBM40 diets). experiment done triplicates (20 per replicate) fed test visual satiety twice daily...

The current study was aimed to evaluate the seasonal variation in bioaccumulation of metals (Pb, Cu and Ni) gills, kidney, liver muscle Oreochromis niloticus. Sixty fish samples (average wet body weight 460.77 ± 6.22 g) were collected from freshwater reservoir Wadi Namar Riyadh, Saudi Arabia winter, summer, spring autumn seasons. heavy assessed through atomic absorption. findings this revealed metals. In winter season minimum concentration Pb, Ni recorded while highest summer season. order...

The primary aim of the study is to augment biogas production from flower waste through optimization and pretreatment techniques. Enhancement by using response surface methodology (RSM) artificial neural network (ANN) was done. time for agitation, concentration substrate, temperature pH were considered as model variables develop predictive models. Pretreatment withered flowers studied physical, chemical, hydrothermal biological methods. linear terms temperature, pH, agitation had effects...

Shrimp culture economics has a significant influence on the socio-economic status of coastal communities. Here, we investigated shrimp farmers' financial and perceptual reactions to analyze farming's direct impact their status, sustainability, resilience, cultural environment. Our outcomes alluded that farming community's satisfaction level was higher than concern for environmental impacts. Local communities expressed about present income from compared pre-farming status. Recently, improved...

Heavy metals are mostly discharged from several anthropogenic sources in the lower Gangetic delta. They a matter of great concern due to their non-conservative nature.
