In this study, we demonstrated the effect of algal diet on fatty acids composition (FA), antioxidant enzymes and DNA damage of Moina brachiata from Adyar River and Kolavoi Lake. 8 different fatty acids were identified in M. brachiata through GC-MS analysis and we noticed two PUFA (Eicosapentaenoic acid, EPA 20:5 (ω-3); Linoleic acid 18:2 (ω-6)). The dietary fatty acid accumulation and bioconversion capacity of M. brachiata have differed in two lakes fed with algal diet. The high amount of ω-3 PUFA was observed in M. brachiata fed with Scenedesmus sp. in Kolavoi Lake (35.84%) followed by Adyar River (33.78%). PUFA content was significantly declined in wild M. brachiata of Adyar River (17.44%) followed by Kolavoi lake (25.78%). On the other hand, high level of Malondialdehyde (MDA) and decreasing level of key antioxidant enzymes likes Superoxide dismutase (SOD), Catalase (CAT), Glutathione peroxidase (GSH) and DNA damage were observed in wild M. brachiata of Adyar River. Hence, the algal diet could enhance the level of antioxidant enzyme activity by decreasing the level of MDA and it does not show DNA damage on M. brachiata . Overall, the results obtained in this study explored that Scenedesmus sp., has the ability to enhance the PUFA content, antioxidant enzyme activity and prevent the DNA damage in M. brachiata which was declined in the wild animal due to the environmental stress conditions.","PeriodicalId":119953,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advances in Scientific Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123194140","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Fruits contained beta-carotene, phenolic compounds such as anthocyanin and other flavonoids, which showcase a wide range of biological benefits, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti carcinogenic properties. Eriobotrya japonica commonly called as loquat fruit is a subtropical evergreen fruit. In the present study an attempt was made to analyzed the phytochemical screening, nutraceuticals and antioxidant activity of the aforesaid traditionally important and pharmacologically potent fruits and seeds of E. japonica. The dried powdered fruits and seed samples were subjected for the analysis of nutritional parameters, phytochemical screening and evaluation of antioxidant activity. The nutritional parameters such as total carbohydrate, total starch, total proteins and levels of free amino acids were analyzed. Phytochemical screening of E. japonica clearly showed the presence of certain important secondary metabolites such as alkaloids, phenols, flavonoids, glycosides, cardiac glycosides, phytosterol and gums and mucilage. The antioxidant activity of the plant extracts were determined by using super oxide free radical scavenging assay. The results of the present study clearly indicated that methanol seed extract showed better free radical scavenging activity at concentration of 1000 mg/ml of extract. Among the selected samples fruits of E.japonica were found to be more potent than the seeds of the same species. However, more advanced pharmacological and clinical studies would be required to investigate in vivo mechanism of pharmacological effects of this important edible fruits E. japonica.","PeriodicalId":119953,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advances in Scientific Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115452917","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With first responders deploying from the United States to assist with the many challenges being faced in the field, they encountered a new set of traumatic events and situations that undoubtedly put them at risk for developing a mental disorder. Organizations must be prepared to provide mental health services for their employees and volunteers once they return. Approach: The authors questioned the potential prevalence of PTSD, ASD, and depression among returning first responders and which therapy method would be the most effective in terms of an individual’s recovered or improved condition. This was done through the use of AnyLogic® 7.0. An agent-based method to model the stress levels a first responder may experience while dealing with Ebola was used, where all responders begin in the healthy state and can develop mental health disorders. The therapy options tested were Cognitive Processing Therapy, Prolonged Exposure, and Group Based Exposure Therapy. Results: GBET for PTSD patients provided the most positive results in terms of condition recovery and improvement. Conclusion: The results showed evidence that the type of therapy used can drastically affect the individual’s mental health outcome.","PeriodicalId":119953,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advances in Scientific Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133455917","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: In this study, the hepatic effect of exposure to cypermethrin and dimethoate mixture (uppercott) was investigated in male albino wistar rats. Forty five (45) male wistar albino rats were distributed into five (5) groups of nine (9) animals each. Groups 1 and 2 served as the normal control and oil control respectively, groups 3, 4 and 5 received 2.5%, 5% and 7.5% LD 50 of uppercott orally for 28 days. Results: Results obtained revealed that uppercott exposure significantly (p<0.05) increased serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST) activity, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) activity and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity when the test groups were compared with control. Also, uppercott exposure raised serum bilirubin concentration slightly insignificantly compared to the control. Superoxide dismutase activity was significantly reduced across all test groups as compared with compared with control. Histology of liver tissues revealed patchy necrotic sessions in the liver tissues of the test experimental groups (2.5%, 5% and 7.5%).

Volumetric modulated arc therapy is a kind of therapy in which rather than using multiple static fields at different gantry angles, one or multiple full or partial arcs are used for radiotherapy planning and treatment. Its ability to provide superior target coverage and better normal tissue sparing makes it a treatment of choice over conventional and 3DCRT radiotherapy planning techniques. But, on the same time volume of low dose region which can increase probability of secondary malignancy in VMAT planning is reported to be on the higher side. Our study compares various parameters of plan quality along with low dose volumes in the techniques under comparison.Materials and methods:10 anonymized patients with unilateral malignant brain tumours previously treated with nc3DCRT were selected for the study and planned with partial arc VMAT. Conformity Index, Homogeneity Index, Target Coverage, Doses to critical structures and normal brain were compared.Conclusion:In our study by using VMAT technique we were able to reduce doses to critical structures (Brainstem, optic nerves, and optic chiasm) significantly, got better target coverage along with lesser number of MUs per fraction and significant reduction in low dose volume and reduction in doses to contralateral normal structures including lesser amount of low dose volume.","PeriodicalId":119953,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advances in Scientific Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129441387","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
