Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to evaluate the food safety of rice biofortified with β-glucan through various toxicity and genotoxicity tests.
  • In the experiments, results indicated that the biofortified rice exhibited no significant toxicity or abnormality in acute toxicity tests, with high median lethal doses.
  • All genotoxicity tests (including Ames and mutation assays) were negative, suggesting that β-glucan biofortified rice does not pose risks for acute toxicity or genetic mutations under the tested conditions.

The authors report the influence of CrN nanoisland inserted on growth of baseball-bat InN nanorods by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy under In-rich conditions. By inserting CrN nanoislands between AlN nucleation layer and the Si (111) substrate, it was found that we could reduce strain form Si by inserting CrN nanoisland, FWHM of the x-ray rocking curve measured from InN nanorods from 3,299 reduced to 2,115 arcsec. It is due to the larger strain from lattice miss-match of the film-like InN structure; however, the strain from lattice miss-match was obvious reduced owing to CrN nanoisland inserted.
