Plant Tissue Culture: Conservation Techniques
Abstract: Agriculture, forestry, horticulture, and plant breeding have all made extensive use of plant tissue culture. It's a type of applied biotechnology that's utilized for things like plant mass propagation, viral eradication, secondary metabolite manufacturing, and in-vitro cloning. Tissue culture has increasingly been employed for short to medium term conserving, also known as slow development, and cryogenics, also known as long term conservation, of vulnerable species of plants. These techniques had …

Caffeine Prove as Neurostimulant by Enhancing the Acid and Alkaline Phosphatase Levels in Young Rat Liver and Young and Old Aged Wistar Rat Brain
Abstract: ABSTRACTAcid phosphatase (ACP) and Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) specific activity was estimated for young (150–220 g) and old aged (320–520 g) wistar rats and for similar groups with caffeine (neurostimulant) treated whole brain and liver tissues. Rats were orally administered with caffeine 13 mg/kg body weight for 3 and 6 days. Brains of young and old rats showed significant increased ACP activity 34.21 and 22.836 nmol/min/mg of protein for 3 days …
