AI Article Synopsis
- Groundnut is susceptible to pests during storage, particularly the bruchid beetle, Caryedon serratus, which damages the pods and kernels.
- Super grain bags proved to be the most effective storage method, resulting in fewer eggs laid, less damage, and minimal weight loss compared to other bags.
- Statistical analysis indicated that all types of storage bags had significant pest issues, but the super grain bag's low air circulation helped in better management of pest damage.
Article Abstract
Groundnut during storage is attacked by number of stored grain pests and management of these insect pests particularly bruchid beetle, Caryedon serratus (Oliver) is of prime importance as they directly damage the pod and kernels. In this regard different storage bags that could be used and duration up to which we can store groundnut has been studied. Super grain bag recorded minimum number of eggs laid and less damage and minimum weight loss in pods and kernels in comparison to other storage bags. Analysis of variance for multiple regression models were found to be significant in all bags for variables viz, number of eggs laid, damage in pods and kernels, weight loss in pods and kernels throughout the season. Multiple comparison results showed that there was a high probability of eggs laid and pod damage in lino bag, fertilizer bag and gunny bag, whereas super grain bag was found to be more effective in managing the C. serratus owing to very low air circulation.

Objectives: The incidence of febrile nonhemolytic transfusion reactions (FNHTRs) is correlated with the level of cytokines released by donor leukocytes in blood bags during storage, which is the most common transfusion reaction. The study aimed to reveal whether the use of leukocyte-poor red blood cells (LPRBCs) can reduce the incidence of transfusion reactions to promote patient safety.
Materials And Methods: From January 2014 to June 2022, 158,122 blood transfusion reports were collected from a medical center in Eastern Taiwan.

Background: It is well known that deterioration is a big concern in the food supply chain. The problem is more serious in handling of traditional foods in developing country such as Ethiopia, due to the limited knowledge about the optimum processing, packaging and storage conditions.
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effect of packaging material and storage condition on the shelf life of Ethiopian traditional paste.

Background: Storage of packed red blood cells (RBCs) for transfusion leads to biochemical and morphological changes, increasing hemolysis risk. Urate levels in blood bags at donation contribute to the molecular heterogeneity and hemolytic propensity of stored RBCs. However, studies to date have been underpowered to investigate at scale the contribution of donor demographics and genetics to the heterogeneity in urate levels across donations.

Introduction: During a cerebrovascular procedure, diligent care is made to ensure no air is present in lines and connectors. Should air enter the cerebral vasculature, cerebral air emboli can cause worsening neurological outcome or death. This communication outlines how a process change of refrigerating mixed heparin for storage lead to the presence of unintentional air, or off-gassing of the fluid.

Genetic differences typically cause differences in the structure and function of proteins in meat. The objective of this research was to examine the biochemical characteristics and functional behavior of proteins in fresh composite meat from Thai Ligor hybrid chicken (LC) and commercial broiler chicken (BC). The composite meat samples, which comprise minced breast and thigh without skin from 20 chicken carcasses in a 1:1 (/) ratio, were randomly selected for analysis using the completely randomized design (CRD).
