THE DESIGN AND ANALYSIS OF EXPERIMENTS. By Oscar Kempthorne. New York, John Wiley and Sons, Inc., 1952. 631 pp. $8.50. This book by a teacher of statistics (as well as a consultant for \"experimenters\") is a comprehensive study of the philosophical background for the statistical design of experiment. It is necessary to have some facility with algebraic notation and manipulation to be able to use the volume intelligently. The problems are presented from the theoretical point of view, without such practical examples as would be helpful for those not acquainted with mathematics. The mathematical justification for the techniques is given. As a somewhat advanced treatment of the design and analysis of experiments, this volume will be interesting and helpful for many who approach statistics theoretically as well as practically. With emphasis on the \"why,\" and with description given broadly, the author relates the subject matter to the general theory of statistics and to the general problem of experimental inference.

Use Of Immunostimulants In Aquaculture Management

Solar disinfection of drinking water for households in rural India

In the zero-water exchange shrimp culture pond maintained with the application of indigenous bioaugmentor, low levels of total ammonia–nitrogen were reported, indicating the relevance of indigenous microbial communities. Sediments (0–5 cm layer) were sampled from the pond (85th day) and the bacterial and archaeal communities; specifically, the ammonia oxidizers (ammonia-oxidizing bacteria, ammonia-oxidizing archaea, and anaerobic ammonia-oxidizing bacteria) in the sediment metagenome of the pond were analysed using the 16S rRNA and functional genes. Bacterial and archaeal 16S rRNA genes showed the relative abundance of Delta-Proteobacteria and Bacteroidetes groups performing sulphur respiration and organic matter degradation, archaeal groups of anaerobic sulphur respiring Crenarchaeotae, and chemolithoautotrophic ammonia oxidizers belonging to Thaumarchaeota. The presence of these diverse bacterial and archaeal communities denotes their significant roles in the cycling the carbon, nitrogen, and sulphur thereby bringing out efficient bioremediation in the bioaugmented zero-water exchange shrimp culture pond. Similarly, the functional gene-specific study showed the predominance of Nitrosomonas sp. (ammonia-oxidizing bacteria), Nitrosopumilus maritimus (ammonia-oxidizing archaea), and Candidatus Kuenenia (anaerobic ammonia-oxidizing bacteria) in the system, which points to their importance in the removal of accumulated ammonia. Thus, this study paves the way for understanding the microbial communities, specifically the ammonia oxidizers responsible for maintaining healthy and optimal environmental conditions in the bioaugmented zero-water exchange shrimp culture pond.

Molecular characterization of bacteria and archaea in a bioaugmented zero-water exchange shrimp pond

Immunostimuiant may be defined as an agent, which stimulate the non-specific
immune mechanism when given alone, or the specific immune mechanism when with an
antigen. Immunostimulants activate the immune system of animals and render them more
resistant to infections by viruses, bacteria, fungi and parasites. They may also be active
against human cancer because they activate white blood cells, which recognize and
destroy tumor cells. Immunostimulants are valuable for the control offish diseases.
