Background: In plant micropropagation, the adaptation phase represents one of the most critical limiting steps due to the high mortality rates commonly observed under ex-vitro conditions. The Fercal grapevine rootstock, characterized by its high adaptability to calcareous soils, holds significant potential for large-scale propagation. Therefore, evaluating strategies to improve survival during the transition from in vitro to ex-vitro environments is essential.

This work was aimed at investigating the pharmacokinetic changes after repeated administration of ketoprofen (3 mg/kg, IM, once a day for 5 days) to goats either alone or in combination with cefquinome (2 mg/kg, IM, once a day for 5 days). The study was carried out on six goats according to a balanced, open, two-phase, cross-pharmacokinetic design. The plasma ketoprofen concentrations were measured using HPLC-UV, and the pharmacokinetic data were estimated using a non-compartmental analysis.

Dog breeding promotes within-group homogeneity through conformation to strict breed standards, while simultaneously driving between-group heterogeneity. There are over 350 recognized dog breeds that provide the foundation for investigating the genetic basis of phenotypic diversity. Typically, breed standard phenotypes such as stature, pelage, and craniofacial structure are analyzed through genetic association studies.

The black queen cell virus (BQCV) is a common agent that causes covert infection in hives and has a global distribution. In this study, TaqMan probe and EvaGreen (EG) dye-based real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) assays based on the amplification of coding senquences for the BQCV structural protein (SP) and the non-structural protein (NSP) were developed and validated for the detection of BQCV in adult bee and larvae/pupae. Additionally, the performances of commonly used EG and TaqMan chemicals for real-time qRT-PCR analyses were compared.

In this article, a series of calix[4]arenes derivatized with isatin derivatives at the phenolic-O position were synthesized as potential theranostic molecules for antitumor therapy. The cytotoxic mechanism of action of the synthesized compounds was determined by Alamar Blue assay and flow cytometry using MCF-7, MDA-MB-231, DLD1, HeLa and A549 human cancer cell lines and their ability to penetrate into PNT1A healthy epithelial cells. To detect DNA damage, the Comet test was applied after the synthesized compounds interacted with the cells.
