GENETIC VARIABILITY OF MINERAL CONTENT IN DIFFERENT GRAIN STRUCTURES OF BEAN CULTIVARS FROM MESOAMERICAN AND ANDEAN GENE POOLS

Genetic Variability of Mineral Content in Different Grain Structures of Bean Cultivars from Mesoamerican and Andean Gene Pools

Beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) are an important source of proteins, carbohydrates, and micronutrients in the diets of millions of people in Latin America and Africa.Studies related to genetic variability in the accumulation and distribution of nutrients are valuable for biofortification programs, as there is evidence that the seed coat and embryo di

Future applications of fluorescence lifetime imaging ophthalmoscopy in neuro-ophthalmology, neurology, and neurodegenerative conditions

Fluorescence lifetime imaging ophthalmoscopy (FLIO) has emerged as an innovative advancement in retinal imaging, with the potential to provide in vivo non-invasive insights into the mitochondrial metabolism of the retina.Traditional retinal imaging, such as optical coherence tomography (OCT) and fundus autofluorescence (FAF) intensity 509 imaging,

Microleakage of Pit and Fissure Sealants after Using Different Occlusal Surface Preparation Techniques: An In Vitro Study

Background: The marginal seal is essential for sealant success because penetration of bacteria under the sealant might allow caries onset or progression.The aim of the present study was to estimate and compare the microleakage of pit and fissure sealant after various methods of occlusal surface preparation.Materials and methods: Thirty non-carious
