Purification and Characterization of Desferrioxamine B of Pseudomonas fluorescens and Its Application to Improve Oil Content, Nutrient Uptake, and Plant Growth in Peanuts
Microb Ecol. 2024 Apr 17;87(1):60. doi: 10.1007/s00248-024-02377-0.ABSTRACTMicroorganisms produce siderophores, which are low-molecular-weight iron chelators when iron availability is limited. The present analyzed the role of LNPF1 as multifarious PGPR for improving growth parameters and nutrient content in peanut and soil nutrients. Such multifarious PGPR strains can be used as effective bioinoculants for peanut farming. In this work, rhizosphere bacteria from Zea mays and Arachis hypogaea plants in the Salem area of Tamil Nadu, India, were isolated and tested for biochemical attributes and characteristics that stimulate ...

Assessing radiation-induced carotid artery injury using ultrasound in patients with head and neck cancer
Head and neck cancers (HNC) are among the most prevalent malignant tumors worldwide. They encompass malignancies of the upper respiratory tract and gastrointestinal system, including nasopharyngeal carcinoma, laryngeal carcinoma, tongue carcinoma, parotid gland carcinoma, and others [1]. The development of HNC is closely related to smoking, excessive drinking, chewing of betel nuts, and viral infection (HBV/HPV). The treatment of HNC includes surgery, radiotherapy (RT), chemotherapy, and immunotherapy. (Source: Radiotherapy and Oncology)

Effects of red meat taxes and warning labels on food groups selected in a randomized controlled trial
CONCLUSIONS: Policies to reduce red meat consumption are also likely to affect consumption of other types of foods that are relevant to both health and environmental outcomes.TRIAL REGISTRATION: NCT04716010 on www.CLINICALTRIALS: gov .PMID:38622655 | DOI:10.1186/s12966-024-01584-9 (Source: Health Physics)

Basophil activation test in the food allergy clinic: its use current use and future applications
Expert Rev Clin Immunol. 2024 Apr 9. doi: 10.1080/1744666X.2024.2336568. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe basophil activation test (BAT) has shown evidence of high sensitivity and high specificity to support the diagnosis of IgE-mediated allergy. It is a functional test that uses live cells analyzed by flow cytometry and thus needs to be performed within 24 h of blood collection. BAT has shown to be reproducible and reliable when tested in a clinical diagnostic laboratory with standardized protocols and flow cytometry settings. BAT has recently been included in Clinical Guidelines of Food Allergy Diagnosis and its impleme...

Food Habits of Raccoon Dogs at An Agricultural Area in Shikoku, Western Japan
Zoolog Sci. 2024 Apr;41(2):185-191. doi: 10.2108/zs230051.ABSTRACTThe diet of raccoon dogs, which live in close proximity to agricultural fields in Matsuyama, western Japan, was studied throughout the year by the fecal analysis method (n = 114). Fruits were most important, accounting for 30-40% of the diet except in winter. Crops were next in importance, accounting for 10-30%. It was characteristic that the proportion of crops was greater and more stable than in other "satoyama" or rural areas in Japan. Crops included rice (Oryza sativa), wheat, sesame (Sesamum indicum), strawberries (Fragaria × ananassa), kiwi fruit (Act...
