Entomopathogenic Fish Nematodes (EpNs) that serve as biological control agents include Steinernema spp and Heterorhabditis spp.EPNs Heterorhabditis indicus (Bromo Isolate) has a high toxicity against larvae Lepidoptera and Coleoptera and was successfully developed for mass production in Biological Control Laboratory of Jember University.These nemat
Lung cancer is a major cause of cancer-associated deaths worldwide, and lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the most common lung cancer subtype.Micro RNAs (miRNAs) regulate the pattern of gene expression in multiple cancer types and have been explored as potential drug development targets.To develop an oncomiR-based panel, we identified miRNA candidates
A phytochemical study of the bark of Fissistigma latifolium (Annonaceae) yielded Jersey wrap a new aporphine alkaloid, (-)-N-methylguattescidine (1), and eight known alkaloids: liriodenine (2), oxoxylopine (3), (-)-asimilobine (4), dimethyltryptamine (5), (-)-remerine (6), (-)-anonaine (7), columbamine (8) and lysicamine (9).The compounds were isol
BackgroundThe increasing burden of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) including HIV and syphilis among male sex workers (MSWs) is a major global concern.The aim of our study was to evaluate the difference between MSWs and non-commercial MSMs in China.MethodsDuring 2008-09, in a cross-sectional study, 2618 adult MSM were recruited through respon
We propose a design for a float capable of harvesting wave energy while fully submerged.The proposed design could theoretically operate indefinitely without ever breaching the surface.We developed and validated design guidelines for the proposed float through Mental a combination of tank testing and simulation.These design insights could be employe
