Dietary Trichosporon mycotoxinivoron modulates ochratoxin-A induced altered performance, hepatic and renal antioxidant capacity and tissue injury in broiler chickens by Sheraz Ahmed Bhatti (9759633)

“…This study was designed to investigate the mode of action of a biological modifier Trichosporon mycotoxinivorans (TM), against OTA-mediated oxidative stress and tissue toxicity on broiler chickens. The birds were offered diets supplemented with OTA (0.15 and 0.3 mg/kg feed) and/or TM (0.5, 1.0 g/kg) for 42 days of age, and blood and tissue samples were collected to examine the oxidative stress, biochemical and histopathological parameters. …”

Enhanced optical properties of <i>β</i>-Ga₂O₃-_<em>x</em>S_<em>x</em>S: A DFT study by G.B. Eshonqulov (22927297)

“…Here, we conduct systematic density functional theory calculations to study the effect of sulfur doping on the electronic and optical properties of <i>β</i>-Ga₂O₃. We find that the band gap of the material decreases with increasing sulfur content (from 4.81 eV to 1.59 eV), accompanied by symmetric shifts in both the valence-band offset and the conduction-band edge. …”
