“Pavania setiformis Loghmani & Hajiqanbar sp. nov. (Acari: Heterostigmatina: Dolichocybidae) associated with Onthophagus (Palaeonthophagus) vitulus (Fabricius) (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) is described from northeastern Iran. This remarkable new species represents a new setiformis species group characterized by seta-like sc(1), instead of capitate trichobothria. The genus Pavania is thus divided into three species groups: the LY3023414 fusiformis group (15 species), the gymnopleuri group (3 species) and the setiformis group (1 species). We also found P. sabzevarensis Hajiqanbar & Khaustov, 2010 and P. onthophagi Hajiqanbar & Khaustov, 2010 phoretic on Gymnopleurus mopsus (Pallas) and Onthophagus (Euonthophagus) amyntas alces (Fabricius), respectively.”
“The buy Geneticin aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of single and combined administrations of GnRH

and hCG with and on the 12th day after artificial insemination (AI). Total 75 cows ranging from 2 to 3 years old were used as materials. All animals were divided into five groups randomly and inseminated in the first estrous period between days 40 and 80 after parturition. The first group received 10 mu g buserelin acetate both during AI and on the 12(th) day of AI. The second group was treated with 10 mu g buserelin acetate during AI and 1.500 IU hCG on the 12(th) day after AI. In the third group, 1.500 IU hCG was injected immediately and on the 12(th) day after AI. Cows in the fourth group was administered 1.500 IU hCG immediately and 10 mu g buserelin acetate on the 12(th) day after AI. The last group was left as control. The pregnancy was diagnosed with rectal examination between days 45 and 60 following AI. The proportion of cows diagnosed as pregnant was 40.0% (6/15) for group 1, 4 and 5, 46.7% (7/15) for group 2 and 3. GSK3326595 As a result of current study, it is identified

that GnRH and hCG administration during and at the 12(th) day after AI failed in increasing pregnancy rate and caused no statistically significant alteration in progesterone levels.”
“We demonstrate that polymer tandem photovoltaic cells can be fabricated by transferring a polymer:fullerene layer of the top subcell onto the bottom subcell using a thin-film transfer technique. A cross-sectional transmission electron micrograph reveals that a molecularly intimate interface is formed between the transferred layer and a MoO3 layer. Consequently, a tandem cell whose subcells consist of an identical polymer:fullerene layer has an open-circuit voltage (Voc) of 1.23 V that is equal to the summation of the subcell Voc’s, with its fill factor reaching 62%. This technique allows one to fabricate tandem cells with materials dissolved in miscible solvents, thereby expanding the range of materials that can be used for photoactive layers and interlayers in solution-processed tandem photovoltaic cells.
