Monitoring plant responses in field-grown peanuts exposed to exogenously applied chitosan under full and limited irrigation levels.

In recent decades, numerous studies have examined the effects of climate change on the responses of plants. These studies have primarily examined the effects of solitary stress on plants, neglecting the simultaneous effects of mixed stress, which are anticipated to transpire frequently as a result of the extreme climatic fluctuations. Therefore, this study investigated the impact of applied chitosan on boosting the resistance responses of peanuts to alkali and mixed drought-alkali stresses.

Histopathological and immunological study of rats liver hydatid cysts isolated from human, sheep, goat and cows.

In endemic places, liver hydatidosis is a life-threatening health issue. Many consequences such as hepatomegaly, infiltration with inflammatory cells and histopathological changes might arise as a result of liver hydatidosis. This study aimed to look into pathogenic changes in the livers of the rats that experimentally infected with hydatid cysts.

Prediction of Ecofriendly Concrete Compressive Strength Using Gradient Boosting Regression Tree Combined with GridSearchCV Hyperparameter-Optimization Techniques.

A crucial factor in the efficient design of concrete sustainable buildings is the compressive strength (Cs) of eco-friendly concrete. In this work, a hybrid model of Gradient Boosting Regression Tree (GBRT) with grid search cross-validation (GridSearchCV) optimization technique was used to predict the compressive strength, which allowed us to increase the precision of the prediction models. In addition, to build the proposed models, 164 experiments on eco-friendly concrete compressive strength were gathered for previous researches.

Nitric oxide and lysozyme production as an impact to Clostridium perfringens mastitis.

The anaerobic mastitis incidence was used to study the bovine udder response in anaerobic bacterial mastitis caused by the Gram-positive bacterial strain of Clostridium perfringens. Milk samples positive for C. perfringens were assayed for NO and lysozyme.

Haematological and clinical features of beta-thalassaemia associated with Hb Dhofar.

Hb Dhofar is a variant haemoglobin (beta(29 (GGC-GGT) gly-gly), beta(58 (CCT-CGT) pro-arg)) associated with a thalassaemic phenotype and unique to the Sultanate of Oman. We report clinical and haematological data on 54 subjects with Hb Dhofar (37 heterozygotes, 14 homozygotes and three compound heterozygotes with a different beta-thalassaemia mutation). In heterozygotes, the level of Hb Dhofar ranged from 8.
