Abstract Background The COVID-19 pandemic, a serious global health threat, has excruciating social and economic implications given its transmissibility, lack of therapy, and severity.In such a situation, pharmacists as frontline healthcare professionals hold a significant position to tackle.This study was designed to explore the perception and prep
Swertia bimaculata moderated liver damage in mice by regulating intestine microbiota
Swertia bimaculata (SB) is a medicinal herb in China having an array of therapeutic and biological properties.This study aimed to explore the attenuating effect of SB on carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) induced hepato-toxicity by regulation of gut microbiome in ICR mice.For this purpose, CCl4 was injected intraperitoneally in different mice groups (B, C
Identification of the main generator source of longitudinal muscle contraction in the earthworm ventral nerve cord
The main generator source of a longitudinal muscle contraction was identified as an M (mechanical-stimulus-sensitive) circuit composed of a presynaptic M-1 neuron and a postsynaptic M-2 neuron in the ventral nerve cord of the earthworm, Amynthas hawayanus, by simultaneous intracellular response recording and Lucifer Yellow-CH injection with two Lig
Freedom to Move: Free Lactation Pens Improve Sow Welfare
Farrowing crates present a major animal welfare problem.This study investigated the effects of temporary confinement at farrowing on sow welfare and aimed to determine whether this type of system could improve sow welfare through increased freedom of movement.Sows were housed in one of two farrowing accommodation treatments: conventional farrowing
