Savoirs et usages des recrus post-agricoles du pays Betsileo : valorisation d'une biodiversité oubliée à Madagascar by Stéphanie M. Carrière, H. Andrianotahiananahary, N. Ranaivoarivelo, J. Randriamalala

“…Peoples belonging to the Betsileo cultural group have established villages and settlements in the Malagasy Central Highlands on the western edge of a forested "corridor" which links the national parks of Ranomafana and Andringitra. Their mixed economy is primarily based on the growing of irrigated rice, but also partly on the extensive domestic animal breeding and the slash-and-burn cultivation (cassava, sweet potato, corn, bean...) to produce food.  …”

Identification of sea snake meat adulteration in meat products using PCR-RFLP of mitochondrial DNA by Sunutcha Suntrarachun, Lawan Chanhome, Montri Sumontha

“…Hopefully, this technique would improve sea snake species identification when morphological examination is no longer possible because the animals are already processed. This is very important to track when sea snake species are being hunted and also used to assess the conservation and management of the sea snakes in Thai waters, especially the Gulf of Thailand. …”

Subetta Treatment Increases Adiponectin Secretion by Mature Human Adipocytes In Vitro by Jim Nicoll, Evgeniy A. Gorbunov, Sergey A. Tarasov, Oleg I. Epstein

“…To investigate the mechanism of action in peripheral tissues of novel complex drug containing release-active dilutions of antibodies to the beta subunit of the insulin receptor and antibodies to endothelial nitric oxide synthase (Subetta), which has shown efficacy in animal models of diabetes. Methods. Human mature adipocytes were incubated either with Subetta, with one of negative controls (placebo or vehicle), with one of nonspecific controls (release-active dilutions of antibodies to cannabinoid receptor type I or release-active dilutions of rabbit nonimmune serum), or with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) at 37°C in a humidified incubator at 5% CO2 for three days. …”
