Twenty-six rice hybrids were evaluated at three locations. Data were normally distributed after running the Shapiro-Wilk test. Plant height and effective tillers/hills showed leptokurtic distribution, indicating these traits were controlled by fewer genes, whereas the rest of the attributes had platykurtic distribution, indicating these traits were controlled by many genes.

Iron nanoparticles were prepared by a green method following functionalization using 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide. 1-Butyl-3-methylimidazole iron nanoparticles were characterized using FTIR spectroscopy, energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The nanoparticles were used in solid-phase membrane micro-tip extraction to separate vitamin B complex from plasma before high-performance liquid chromatography.

β-Adrenergic blockers represent a very important class of drugs that are used worldwide for treating various cardiac diseases. The present article describes the state-of-the art of analyses of β-adrenergic blockers using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Sample preparation techniques such as liquid-liquid extraction, solid-phase extraction and solid-phase microextraction have been discussed, which are essential prior to HPLC analysis.
