The textural qualities of cooked rice may be understood as a dominant property and indicator of eating quality. In this study, we evaluated the precision and sensitivity of a back extrusion (BE) test for the texture of cooked germinated brown rice (GBR) in a production process. BE testing of the textural properties of cooked GBR rice showed a high precision of measurement in hardness, toughness and stickiness tests which indicated by the repeatability and reproductivity test but the sensitivity indicated by coefficient of variation of the texture properties.

Article Synopsis
  • Metagenomics has been effective in finding new pathogens and monitoring outbreaks, helping identify various viruses in asymptomatic long-tailed macaques from Thailand.
  • A specific workflow detected novel astroviruses, enteroviruses, and adenoviruses in fecal samples, revealing a potential new adenovirus that can infect both monkeys and humans.
  • The study underscores the importance of ongoing zoonotic surveillance in areas where humans and animals coexist to prevent the emergence of new pathogens.

Developing complex software may be difficult for students or those with less technical expertise in software design due to the large number of diagrams and the complexity of their relationships. Unified modeling language (UML) provides conceptual software design as a system's blueprints, including programming statements, software processes, software components, deployment, design, and development, whereas database schemas use UML for an object-oriented database and entity relation model (ERD) for a relational database. An information flow diagram (IFD) is a technical tool for designing software that includes Infrastructure, data and information, and processing flow.

Article Synopsis
  • Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) is a common cause of encephalitis in Asia, transmitted to humans primarily through mosquito bites, with pigs and birds serving as main hosts.
  • This study found JEV neutralizing antibodies in non-human primates (NHPs) and humans in Thailand, indicating natural infection and transmission between species, with seropositivity rates of 14.7% in monkeys and up to 45.2% in humans.
  • The results suggest a need for ongoing serological studies at the animal-human interface to monitor JEV, especially given the higher infection rates in older humans.

Background And Aim: The use of antibiotics is associated with many side effects, with the development of bacterial resistance being particularly important. It has been found that dogs and their owners host similar resistant bacteria. This contributes to increased concurrent bacterial resistance and a possible trend of increased bacterial resistance in humans.

Background And Aim: Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) is an infectious, immune-mediated, and fatal disease in cats caused by a mutant feline coronavirus (FCoV) infection. Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) and feline leukemia virus (FeLV) are two common retroviruses that play a role in reducing feline immune function with opportunistic retrovirus infection being a predisposing factor for the development of FIP. This study aimed to evaluate the clinicopathological parameters of FIP in cats with and without retrovirus coinfection.

Background And Aim: Gossypol, a cotton seed derivative, is well known for its reversible antifertility in male reproduction across species. Its antifertility and reversibility effects on male reproductive function vary among species in dose-and time-dependent manners. In this study, the antifertility potential of gossypol in pigeons was evaluated for the first time to determine whether it might be used as a dietary supplement for pigeon population control.

The phytoextraction ability and responses of sunn hemp, sunflower, and marigold plants were investigated toward carbaryl insecticide at 10 mg L and its degradative product (1-naphthol). All test plants exhibited significant carbaryl removal capability (65-93%) with different mechanisms. Marigold had the highest translocation factor, with carbaryl taken up, translocated and accumulated in the shoots, where it was biotransformed into 1-naphthol.
