Inclusion of Sorghum in L. Diet: Effects on Growth, Flesh Quality, Microbiota, and Oxidative Status.

This study investigates the impact of including sorghum in the diet of the common carp () on its growth, blood parameters, meat composition, intestinal microbiota, and oxidative stress. Experimental diets with varying sorghum content (0%-V0 or control, 10%-V1, 20%-V2, and 30%-V3) were administered to carp weighing 43 g initially. Notably, in the 30% variant, sorghum entirely replaced corn and barley in the diet.

High-throughput fabrication of organic nanowire devices with preferential internal alignment and improved performance.

We demonstrate that arrays of nanowires of conjugated polymers can be easily produced by a simple embossing protocol, compatible with very large scale integration technology. The embossing process is shown to have the supplementary virtue to increase the internal degree of order of the nanowires, significantly enhancing their performance. This is applied to the fabrication of nanowire-based devices consisting of a liquid crystalline light-emitting polymer, of a liquid crystalline semiconducting polymer, and of an amorphous conducting polymer, illustrating the versatility and wide applicability of the method.
