Article
This research aims to characterize the histological features of the gills and swim bladder of adult Hong Kong catfish (Clarias fuscus) weighing an average of 650 g and 40 cm in length. The organs (gills and swim bladders) were dissected and fixed for 48 hours in 10% neutral buffered formalin (NBF) fixative. The organs were then subjected to standar...

Background The increasing world population has made researchers to explore and validate alternate food sources for the future; in that regard, due to the attractive nutritive profile, edible insects ensure the food and feed security in some developing countries. Crickets are orthopteran edible insects widely eaten around the world not as an emergen...
Conference Paper
In this paper, authors attempted to identify the prevalence of Diabetic Retinopathy in Diabetic population among men and women using Fuzzy Matrix Theory. It has been shown that men are affected more than women.
Chapter
Among the issues faced by humans, the availability of land for usage is becoming a critical and primary concern, which affects a large population. Land degradation converts useful, productive land into non-cultivable and unproductive land. It degrades land in terms of reduction in productivity and usage, which occurs due to several factors, includi...

Atrazine is considered moderately toxic to aquatic animals. In the present study protective effect of Tribulus terrestris on hepatotoxicity in fresh water fish Oreochromis mossambicus, at sub lethal concentration of atrazine (16.5mg/l) exposure fish for 120h was studied. After completing the exposure time experiment were carried out to find the lev...

Loss due to diseases is a major problem in crabs. To control diseases, a number of antibiotics, sanitizers and chemicals are being used. This results in adverse environmental effects, emergence of antibiotic resistance and persistence of chemical residues in animal tissues. Considering the negative impact of antibiotics and other chemotherapeutants...
