Gene therapy holds a great potential for treating and correcting inherited as well as acquired diseases that rely on the transfer of nucleic acids-based materials into mammalian cells. A plethora of vector systems, based on biological (viral), physical and chemical (non-viral) methods, have been developed for the efficient delivery of these biopharmaceuticals, however, these have encountered sever...... hiện toàn bộ
Efficacy of Silicon Formulations on Sugarcane Stalk Borers, Quality Characteristics and Parasitism Rate on Five Commercial VarietiesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, India Section B: Biological Sciences - Tập 87 - Trang 289-297 - 2015
Amin Nikpay, Ebrahim Soleyman Nejadian, Shila Goldasteh, Hossein Farazmand
Sugarcane is an important cash crop in Iran and it is exclusively cultivated in more than one hundred hectares of Khuzestan province. One proven and ecologically sound best management practice in sugarcane is application of silicon to mitigate for both biotic and abiotic stresses. It has been proved that silicon can enhance resistance of sugarcane against stalk borers. Also, new hypothesis suggest...... hiện toàn bộ
Integration of Modern Molecular Tools with Geological Processes to Reveal Species Phylogeny, Biogeographical Niche Prediction, and Bio-EvolutionProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, India Section B: Biological Sciences - Tập 93 - Trang 119-125 - 2022
Maneesh S. Bhandari, Marco Antonio Caçador Martins-Ferreira, Arzoo Shamoon, Shailesh Pandey, Rajendra K. Meena
Nature is integrated, being simultaneously controlled by different natural aspects. Genetics, bioinformatics, biostatistics and geology are four diverse and broad scientific disciplines. But we believe that these can offer important insights into species distribution and evolution, if integrated. This perspective is grounded on a case study of the family Salvadoraceae, where species distribution a...... hiện toàn bộ
Antibacterial and In Silico Evaluation of β-lactamase Inhibitory Potential of Pinus sylvestris L. (Scots Pine) Essential OilProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, India Section B: Biological Sciences - Tập 93 - Trang 967-977 - 2023

Antibiotic resistance remains one of the global challenges that needs urgent attention, including finding alternative treatment options to conventional antibiotics and reversing resistance. Pinus sylvestris L. (Pinaceae) essential oil (EO) has several biological properties. In this study, the EO of P. sylvestris was extracted by hydro-distillation method, and twenty-six chemical constituents of th...... hiện toàn bộ
Modeling the Impact of Extraction Conditions on Functional Properties of Gelatin from Scales of Blackspotted Croaker (Protonibea diacanthus)Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, India Section B: Biological Sciences - Tập 84 - Trang 1021-1029 - 2013

Utilization of waste from fish processing industry for value added products is gaining considerable attention as it addresses environmental pollution issues and adds economic returns to the industry. Scales of Blackspotted croaker were utilized for the extraction of gelatin and response surface methodology (RSM) with central composite design was employed to determine the optimal conditions of thre...... hiện toàn bộ
Impact Assessment on the Aquatic Ecosystem in the Vicinity of an Operating Nuclear Power Plant at the Kalpakkam Coastal SiteProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, India Section B: Biological Sciences - Tập 82 - Trang 349-355 - 2012
Shree Kumar Apte
An inherent problem in electricity generation is that much of the heat produced cannot be converted into electricity and is dissipated in nearby heat sinks, such as lakes, rivers and oceans. In India, such heat rejection to water bodies is governed by legislation from ministry of environment and forests and central and state pollution control boards. New standards for thermal discharge issued by M...... hiện toàn bộ
Phytochemical Composition and Antioxidant Activity of Some Scorzonera SpeciesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, India Section B: Biological Sciences - Tập 83 - Trang 271-276 - 2012
Yavuz Erden, Sevda Kırbağ, Ökkeş Yılmaz
This study was carried out on the phytochemical composition (such as vitamins and flavonoids), element content and antioxidant activity of the Scorzonera suberosa (C. Koch), S. latifolia (Fisch. & Mey.) and S. laciniata (L.) species. The aerial parts of plant samples were used in the analyses. Species composition of vitamins, flavonoids, resveratrol and sugar were determined by using HPLC. Mineral...... hiện toàn bộ
