Article Abstract
In line with the requirements of the Egyptian government to find a solution for wheat transportation during the peak harvesting season, an innovative design for a grain cart with a capacity of 8 tons supplemented with a grain hopper, a lifting double-action pneumatic conveyor, and a built-in digital scale was tested and evaluated to facilitate the transport of wheat crops from farmers' fields to storage sites. The cart was manufactured in the workshop of a local industrial company. It was tested under varying operational conditions in different wheat production areas in terms of working performance, efficiency of the grain loading and unloading mechanism, precision of the grain weighing mechanism, and cost/ton. The cart will enable wheat farmers and traders to transport and deliver their crops easily to storage sites with minimal losses and maximum working efficiency. It will also increase farmers' profit because transportation cost by using this grain cart is less than that of the current conventional method. Moreover, the developed cart can secure wheat supply in government storage sites without any interruption during the peak wheat harvesting season.

Tiger barbs (Puntigrus tetrazona) are typical shoaling fish that can become stressed and aggressive when kept in small groups. To examine whether group size affects feeding, fish were housed in groups of 1, 2, 4, or 8 individuals per tank and monitored over a 10-day period. Overall feeding behavior, latency to feed, and the amount of food consumed were assessed daily.

Amino acids in the brain modulate eating behavior and energy balance. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of DL-methionine (DL-Met), l-lysine monohydrochloride (L-Lys-HCl), and taurine (Tau) on feed intake and the mRNA expression levels of appetite-related hypothalamic neuropeptides in chicks. DL-Met, l-Lys-HCl, or Tau was intracerebroventricularly (ICV) administered to 5-day-old layer-type chicks, and the feed intake was recorded until 1 h post-injection.

Highlights: Stress was measured in harvest operators who performed on-the-go unloading manually and with an automated system. Automated unloading reduced the average grain cart and combine operator stress rate by 18% and 12%, respectively, compared to manual operation. Harvest operators usually worked more than 9 hours and often worked more than 12hours per workday during harvest.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how modifying NKP30 CAR-T cells with IL-21 and CCL19 could improve their ability to kill lung cancer cells and infiltrate tumors more effectively.
- They constructed these modified CAR-T cells and tested their characteristics using various assays and a zebrafish model, observing significant enhancements in cell proliferation and migration compared to standard T cells.
- The results indicated that the modified CAR-T cells showed improved cytotoxicity and memory cell formation, making them potentially more effective in targeting and eliminating lung cancer cells.
