Photonic Crystals – A Review
Abstract: Photonic crystals are periodically arrayed electromagnetic media, commonly having possessing photonic band gaps: ranges of frequency in which light cannot propagate through the structure. This periodicity, where the length scale is proportional to the wavelength of light in the band gap, is the electromagnetic analogue of a crystalline atomic lattice, where the latter acts on the electron wave function to make the familiar band gaps, semiconductors, and so on, of …

In Vitro Callus Induction of White Pumpkin (Cucurbita moschata Duch.) ‘Casperita’ (F1 Hybrid) through Difference Explants
Abstract: White pumpkin (Cucurbita moschata Duch.) ‘Casperita’ (F1 Hybrid) is a popular pumpkin in many countries, however, it produces unfertile seeds. The current study determined the appropriated concentrations of 2,4-D (2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid) and BAP (6-Benzylaminopurine) on callus induction using various explants as hypocotyl, epicotyl, cotyledons, petiole, and leaf. Sterilized explants were cultured on MS media with various concentrations of 2,4-D (0 and 2 mg/L) and BAP (0, 0.1, 0.3 and …

Signs of Approaching Parturition, Stages of Parturition, Hormonal Cascade of Parturition and Cause of Dystocia in Domestic Animals: An Overview
Abstract: Parturition encompasses the various physiological processes involved in the birth of young ones. Parturition is a physiological and hormonal cascade process by which pregnant uterus delivers foetus and foetal membranes at the end of normal length of gestation or pregnancy. Domestic animals vary in their pregnancy period as well as signs of parturition. Canine species are unique in their pre- and peri-parturient event occurring during pregnancy and parturition. The imminent …

Role of Bioactive Compounds on Protein Utilization in Ruminants: A Review
Abstract: Insufficient nutrition is the primary drive of low productivity by ruminants. These insufficiencies can be corrected by supplementation with high-density feeds and locally available tree legumes. These tree legumes contain various types of bioactive compounds, which can be defined as secondary plant metabolites (PSM) that are extra nutritional substances having pharmacological or toxicological effects in man and animals. Besides the primary biosynthetic, the secondary metabolites are also produced within the …
