Therefore, a study was conducted to observe genetic diversity among eight Swarna cultivars grown in Bangladesh. The genetic diversity of the cultivars was assessed by one hundred SSR (simple sequence repeat) markers. Among these, forty-four primers were polymorphic. In total, 188 alleles from eight rice genotypes with an average of 4.27 alleles per locus were identified. Allele numbers varied from 2 to 11. The average polymorphism information content (PIC) was 0.533, with a range of 0.195 to 0.889. The most suitable markers found were RM149, RM232, and RM3421, which provided the highest PIC value of 0.889. Genetic dissimilarity coefficient values between pairs indicated that the Guti Swarna and Nepali Swarna cultivars along with the Guti Swarna and Deshi Guti Swarna cultivars were the most genetically distant (0.818) cultivars whereas the Nepali Swarna and Nironjon Swarna cultivars were the closest (0.091). A dendrogram constructed based on polymorphism indicated five major groups. It was observed that the Guti Swarna and Sumon Swarna cultivars formed two different solitary groups, I and II whereas the Nepali Swarna and Nironjon Swarna formed group III, the Lal Swarna and Swarna5 constructed group IV, and the Deshi Guti Swarna and Tiger Indian Swarna were in group V. Our findings may help in designing appropriate cross combinations for further improvement of Swarna cultivars.","PeriodicalId":36974,"journal":{"name":"Current Applied Science and Technology","volume":" 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140221021","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}

Their physical and antioxidant properties were investigated. The results showed that addition of BPA and TRC at different concentrations (10%, 20%, and 30% of gelatin weight) significantly affected the visible color and color values (L*, a*, b*, hue and chroma) of the obtained films. With increasing pigment concentrations, lower % light transmittance was observed (p<0.05). The improved light barrier property corresponded with the increased opacity of the two films (p<0.05). Compared with the control films, the addition of either BPA or TRC slightly increased thickness of films (p<0.05). The moisture content of films increased with increasing BPA concentration but decreased with increasing TRC concentration (p<0.05). However, water solubility was not significantly different among films with varying concentrations of BPA or TRC (p>0.05). Total anthocyanin content (TAC), total curcuminoid content (TCC), total phenol content, and antioxidant activities by FRAP and DPPH increased with increasing pigment concentration in films (p<0.05). Based on in vitro digestion, the film forming solution containing 30% (w/w) plant pigment significantly improved the stability of pigment compounds, TPC, and antioxidant activities during the intestinal phase. Compared to the pigment extract alone, film forming solution containing gelatin and glycerol showed protecting effects against biological conditions during intestinal digestion of the two pigments, BPA and TRC, and therefore, offered greater stability of antioxidant activity (p<0.05).","PeriodicalId":36974,"journal":{"name":"Current Applied Science and Technology","volume":"346 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140227932","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}

Java apples were transported from local farms to wholesale markets (180 km). Java apples were stored at room temperature (28°C) for six days. Physical qualities such as weight loss and firmness of the Java apple samples were evaluated. The RGB image acquisition system was used to assess changes in the color of the Java apple. The vibration showed that more than 70% of the acceleration occurred between 220-290 cm/s2 in the vertical and horizontal directions during transportation. Analysis showed that physical qualities, such as weight loss and firmness, were strongly affected by the packaging used, vibration during transportation, and storage temperature. The weight loss and reduction in firmness was highest in Java apples transported using wholesaler packaging (packaging A). The lightness, yellowness, and hue values decreased significantly because transportation vibration was relatively high, and the Java apples were stored at room temperature. Redness, total color difference, and color index increased significantly in Java apples that were transported using package A and stored at room temperature. The results showed that the use of transportation packaging affected changes in the physical quality of Java apples. Packaging A generally increase in weight loss, hardness, and changes in fruit color than other packaging types.","PeriodicalId":36974,"journal":{"name":"Current Applied Science and Technology","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140226432","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}

The use of Alternating Current-Electric Fields (AC-EF) in Electro-Capacitive Cancer Therapy (ECCT) showed its potential as an anti-cancer device, and is characterized by its anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic effects. However, the role of AC-EF in angiogenesis remains unclear. To investigate the effects of AC-EF on CAM angiogenesis, we used the ex ovo culture method of chorioallantoic membrane (CAM). A basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) dose of 30 ng/µL was administered as an exogenous growth factor. The ECCT device, generating AC-EF of 150 kHz and 18 Vpp, was exposed to the CAMs. Subsequently, the 24 CAMs of chick embryo were divided into four groups. Two groups were non-bFGF-induced CAM, while the other two were bFGF-induced CAM, and each group was exposed either with or without AC-EF. The vascularization was evaluated through macroscopic observation, while vascular endothelial growth factor A\u0000(VEGFA) gene expression was measured using qPCR. The data were statistically analyzed using ANOVA with GraphPad Prism 9.5. The results showed that an AC-EF exposure had no effects on normal CAM angiogenesis (P>0.05). Moreover, VEGFA gene expression did not show significant upregulation (P>0.05) in the bFGF-induced CAM with or without AC-EF exposure. Interestingly, the number of new blood vessels was significantly higher (P<0.05) in the bFGF-induced with AC-EF exposure than in the non-bFGF-induced group. In conclusion, AC-EF of ECCT did not affect normal angiogenesis. AC-EF may trigger CAM angiogenesis with bFGF induction. This observation suggested that AC-EF of intermediate frequency could enhance angiogenesis by administration of external growth factors, offering a potential avenue for addressing obstructive vascular conditions.","PeriodicalId":36974,"journal":{"name":"Current Applied Science and Technology","volume":"320 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140228270","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}

It was found that increasing the amount of zinc oxide in the rubber compound resulted in a rise in the viscosity of the latex over the storage period. Increasing the zinc oxide content also led to a higher degree of crosslink noticed by a faster chloroform number determination of the vulcanization level and the opposite effect on the swell value of the rubber film with reduced swelling. The amount of 2.0 phr of ZnO as an activator gave the highest value of the tensile strength. The increasing amount of silver nanoparticles caused a decrease in the viscosity and exhibited a slower chloroform number with a decrease in the swelling of the rubber film. The amount of silver nanoparticles in the study period (0.0010-0.0022 phr) had little effect on mechanical properties but a significant effect on antibacterial activity. The 0.0010 phr of silver nanoparticles showed sufficient potential in inhibiting Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli.","PeriodicalId":36974,"journal":{"name":"Current Applied Science and Technology","volume":"6 17","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140227580","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}

The PAH content in all the roasted yam samples was identified and analyzed using gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GC-MS). A total of 8 PAHs were identified in both yam species; however, bitter yam roasted with augmented charcoal contained 9 PAHs. The total EDI showed that bitter yam roasted with augmented charcoal (6.59E-1) had the highest PAH content while white yam roasted with only charcoal contained the lowest (1.27E-1). The hazard quotients and indexes revealed that bitter yam had the highest HQ in all the roasting methods except for napathalene, fluoranthene and benzo (a) pyrene in samples roasted with charcoal. The HI for both species in all the roasting methods was above 1 (>1), while firewood produced the highest HI.
