Rainbow trout () and brown trout () are popular salmonid species that are reared for sport and recreational activities worldwide. In India, they were introduced and successfully established in the late 19th and early 20th centuries by the European settlers. However, until now, no studies have analysed the genetic integrity of wild trout populations in India.

From the results, acceptable limit pH ranges, low and high electrical conductivity (EC) values, high-level of TDS (total dissolved solids) and chloride (Cl) values, less than desirable and higher than permissible F concentrations (4.

Probiotics from an identical organism's gastrointestinal system promote effective colonization and provide greater benefits than other sources. This study aimed to evaluate the usefulness of probiotic bacteria isolated from the intestines of freshwater fishes for a dietary supplement of freshwater aquaculture.

The selected strains exhibiting a high level of fluoride resistance was determined in Luria broth (LB) medium and LB agar plates. In a further effort, fluoride-resistant organisms were tested for hemolytic activity and showed β-hemolysis on blood agar plates.

The present study aimed to identify virulent from naturally infected in river Cauvery and in vitro evaluation of shrimp chitosan. Rimler Shotts (RS) and blood agar medium identified the presence of pathogenic sp.

A total of 42 patients with pain due to acute irreversible pulpitis in carious premolar and molar teeth were included in this study. The four irrigation groups were as follows: saline (n = 11), 3% sodium hypochlorite (n = 11), ketorolac tromethamine (n = 10) and dexamethasone (n = 10).

However, some patients may have moderate to severe pain following treatment. The aim of this study was to compare and assess the effect of ketorolac tromethamine on substance P expression in the pulp and periapical tissues when used as a root canal irrigant for single-visit root canal treatment in teeth with irreversible pulpitis.

The Cauvery, Vaigai and Thamirabarani are the three major rivers flowing through the Southern Tamil Nadu region of India. In this study, the Water Quality Index (WQI) and heavy metal concentrations of river water during the pre- and post-monsoon periods in 2015 were recorded and the impact of heavy metal accumulation in two important murrel fish species, and , was analysed using micronuclei and histology assays.
