Effects of Tuna By-Product Meal on Growth, Whole-Body Mercury, Phosphorus Load, and Plasma Chemistry in Juvenile Greater Amberjack .

The suitability of tuna by-product meal (TBM) as a replacement for fish meal (FM) in the diet of juvenile greater amberjack was investigated for its effect on growth, mercury (Hg) levels in the fish body, phosphorus (P) load, and plasma chemistry. FM was the main protein source in the control diet (C), and it was replaced by TBM at 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% to formulate diets TM25, TM50, TM75, and TM100, respectively. The experiment was performed in triplicate, stocking 30 juveniles (mean weight: approximately 6.

Placental Proteomics Reveals an Elevated Level of Aldo-Keto Reductase 1-B1, Highlighting Its Potential Role in Spontaneous Preterm Birth.

Preterm birth (PTB) refers to the delivery of a baby before the completion of 37 weeks of gestation. It is a significant global health issue with implications for both mothers and neonates. The placenta is a transient organ crucial in the sustenance of pregnancy until parturition; its dysfunction is associated with different adverse pregnancy outcomes, including PTB.

Production performance, serum lipid profile and gut health in Indian native Kadaknath chickens fed diet incorporated with liquorice root powder.

The principal constituent of liquorice root () is glycyrrhizin, a triterpene saponin that is approximately many times sweeter than sucrose, the main active component. This study aimed to investigate the dietary liquorice root powder (LRP) on production performance, serum biochemical, gut health and carcass characteristics of Kadaknath (KN) birds as replacement of antibiotic growth promoter. Day-old Kadaknath chicks (n = 240) with uniform body weight were selected randomly and divided into six different treatments, each one with five replicates and eight birds per replicate, and raised in battery brooder cages for 15 weeks.

Mixed-species Pseudomonas biofilms: a novel and sustainable strategy for malachite green dye decolorization and detoxification.

This study investigated the application of mixed biofilms formed by two Pseudomonas strains (NAA22 and NAA23) for bio-decolorization of malachite green (MG) dye. The isolated strains displayed biofilm formation and MG decolorization capabilities. Mixed biofilms exhibited significantly greater biofilm formation and MG decolorization (94.
