The invention relates to eye-friendly green-blue mixed LED lighting methods and systems for chicken houses. In a chicken house, an evenly-distributed cyan light environment may be created for rearing broiler chickens. The chicken house may include mixed LED lamps associated with the cyan light environment, and the mixed LED lamp may be formed by combining green LED beads and blue LED beads on a lighting fixture with a mixing proportion of from about 0.2 to about 5. The mixed LED lamps may be used for about 24-hour lighting in the first three days of the breeding period. From the fourth day of the breeding period, the daily lighting duration may be progressively decreased by about one hour every day. The mixed LED lamps may be evenly arranged in the chicken house to form a square array.

Provided is an aquacultured crustacean having improved umami, uses thereof, and a method for producing the same. The crustacean does not burrow in sand, contain glycine and alanine, and has 2400 mg or more of free amino acids per 100 g of abdominal muscle. The content of glycine is 550 mg or more per 100 g of abdominal muscle, and the content of alanine is 140 mg or more per 100 g of abdominal muscle.

Method for producing YY super-male and XY physiological female common carps, with which YY-chromosome super-male common carp can be cultivated and androgenetic YY super-male common carp is produced, where microsatellite markers are used for paternity testing and test crossing confirmation. The YY common carp is crossed with normal female common carp to produce the progenies of only male common carp, and without sex identification, the juvenile male common carp with known sex are subjected to artificial sex reversal to produce XY physiological female common carp.

Residual, refractory or relapsed cancer is treated by immunostimulation in the presence of allogeneic immune effector cells, optimally in combination with radiation therapy. The methods of the disclosure induce a systemic allogeneic anti-tumor immune response that results in tumor regression in untreated sites of disease, i.e. non-injected, non-irradiated, etc.

The present invention relates to a degenerative disease model Drosophila. More particularly, a technique is disclosed for alleviating the phenotypes of a degenerative disorder symptom of Drosophila. Using this technique, illumination with low dose radiation on a degenerative disease model Drosophia alleviates symptoms of the degenerative disease.

[Problem] The objectives of the present invention are to provide a method for making an animal that has been stressed, in particular, chronically stressed, affect or develop a specific disease or symptom, and, through elucidating the process from loading stress to affection or onset of the disease or symptom, to provide a useful tool for research and development of preventing or treating methods of the disease or symptom. [Solution] The present invention relates to a method for producing a disease modeling non-human animal having cerebrovascular inflammation, the disease modeling non-human animal, a method for screening a drug using the disease modeling non-human animal, a method for determining the risk of a disease using the presence of cerebrovascular inflammation as an indicator, and a pharmaceutical for preventing and/or treating progressive multiple sclerosis or the like. The present invention enables developing pharmaceuticals for the above described diseases or the like and performing researches for elucidating their pathogenic mechanisms. The present invention also enables determining the risk of affection or onset of progressive multiple sclerosis or the like and preventing and/or treating progressive multiple sclerosis or the like.

A method for inducing feminization in Tilapia aurea includes subjecting Tilapia aurea aged 1 to 3 dph to an immersion treatment with ethinyl estradiol in a concentration ranging from 142 to 200 ppm for 1 to 3 minutes.

Disclosed are methods and pharmaceutical compositions for treating and inhibiting conical vascularization including conical vascularization associated with viral infection, chemical injury, autoimmune conditions, and post-corneal transplantation or in subjects having a PAX6 mutation associated with conical vascularization. The methods and pharmaceutical compositions are utilized in administering treatment that results in increased concentration of FOXC1 in a subject's cornea in order to treat or inhibit corneal vascularization.

One variation of a method for producing a target compound includes: during an initial period, genetically modifying a population of insects to produce a target compound; during a growth period succeeding the initial period, cultivating the population of insects; during a treatment period succeeding the growth period, applying a dosage of a stressor to the population of insects, the stressor configured to trigger production of the target compound; in response to a proportion of the target compound within the population of insects exceeding a threshold proportion, harvesting the population of insects; homogenizing the population of insects to form a blend comprising the proportion of the target compound and a second proportion of a set of secondary components; and separating the proportion of the target compound from the second proportion of the set of secondary components for extraction of the proportion of the target compound from the blend.

A method for producing a new deafness model animal and a new deafness model animal produced by the method, enabling research that can also be applied to clinical application to a human. The present invention provides a method for producing an acoustic trauma deafness model animal, the method including exposing a non-human primate animal to a sound having a frequency of 1 kHz to 32 kHz and a sound pressure level of 100 dB to 150 dB for 10 minutes to 360 minutes. In addition, the present invention provides an acoustic trauma deafness model animal provided by the method for producing an acoustic trauma deafness model animal.
