This study tested the Null Hypothesis for the effect of biofield treatment when used for control of nematode on carrot crops, Daucus carota, under typical growing conditions in year 2012 at Guadalupe, California, USA. Following biofield treatment, carrot seeds were planted in replicate plots with mechanical seeder and their development was recorded compared to control seed growth from untreated plots and plots treated with the commercial standard nematicide, further Vydate L was applied three times at rates of 1 and 0.5 gal/A, at 1, 18 and 35 days after seeding, respectively. At 70 and 109 days after the first application root galling severity in biofield treated crops was reduced by 54% and 22% respectively as compared to untreated while the Vydate response showed 0% and 25% control, respectively. Plots planted with biofield treated seeds resulted in the greatest number and weight of marketable carrot roots. Total yield and gross return were greatest in biofield treated group producing an approximately 33% increase over the untreated controls and 15% increase over those treated with the commercial standard, Vydate L. Vitamin A (beta carotene) was significantly greater (6512 IU/100 g) in biofield treated carrots compared with both the untreated controls (4941) and the commercial standard (5143). The results concluded that, Biofield treatment caused the numerical improvement in yield along with nematode control in carrots however, caused statistically

Antioxidant activity, photosynthetic rate, and Spectral mass in bean Plants (...IJEABJ
An increase in antioxidant activity is a common response in plants as a defense mechanism against biotic and abiotic stress factors, such response is also generated with the exogenous application of "defense activators", which have negative effects on plant metabolism. In this work, bean plants (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) cv. Pinto Nacional were treated with jasmonic acid (0.5 mM), salicylic acid (2 mM), Trichoderma asperellum (105 spores/ml), and Bacillus pumilus (105 CFU / mL), in order to determine the level of structural and metabolic response of the plants. On the seventh day after the application of the treatments, it was measured the enzymatic activity of catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POX), and superoxide dismutase (SOD). In addition, leaf impressions were taken to measure the stomatal opening and conductance, photosynthetic rate, and the mass spectrum (mass/charge, m/z). The antioxidant activity increased in plants treated with jasmonic acid and T. asperellum, which in turn significantly increased the stomatal opening and conductance, and photosynthetic rate. The mass profile showed that the plants treated with T. asperellum have a greater quantity of masses/charge, of which some had statistically highly significant difference according to the means test Tukey (p <0.05). It is concluded that some defense activators such as jasmonic acid and T. asperellum increase the antioxidant activity, defense response that concurs with the high photosynthetic and metabolic rate in bean plants.

Recent innovations of ultrasound green technology in herbal phytochemistry: A...Mostafa Gouda
Ultrasound (US) has become one of the most important techniques in green chemistry and emerging technologies.
Many research investigations documented the usefulness of US in a wide range of applications in food
science, nanotechnology, and complementary medicine, where effective extraction of natural products is
important. However, as with all novel technologies, US has advantages and limitations that require clarification
for full adaptation at an industrial scale. The present review discusses recent applications of US in herbal
phytochemistry with the emphasis on US effects on chemical structures of bioactive compounds extracted from
herbs and their bioactivities. The impact of different US processing conditions such as frequency, intensity,
duration, temperature, and pressure on the effectiveness of the extraction process and the properties of the
extracted materials are also discussed. Different frequencies and intensities of US have demonstrated its potential
applications in modifying, determining, and predicting the physicochemical properties of herbs and their extracts.
US has important applications in nanotechnology where it supports the fabrication of inexpensive and ecofriendly
herbal nanostructures, as well as acoustic-based biosensors for chemical imaging of the herbal tissues.
The application of US enhances the rates of chemical processes such as hydrolysis of herbal fibers, which reduces
the time and energy consumed without affecting the quality of the final products. Overall, the use of US in herbal
science has great potential to create novel chemical constructions and to be used as an innovative diagnostic
system in various biomedical, food, and analytical applications.
Evaluation of the Impact of Biofield Treatment on Physical and Thermal Proper...wilhelm mendel
In the present study, the influence of biofield treatment on physical and thermal properties of Casein Enzyme Hydrolysate (CEH) and Casein Yeast Peptone (CYP) were investigated. The control and treated samples were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Thermo Gravimetric Analysis (TGA), particle size and surface area analysis. The FTIR results revealed that biofield treatment has caused reduction of amide group (amide-I and amide-II) stretching vibration peak that is associated with strong intermolecular hydrogen bonding in treated CEH as compared to control. However, no significant changes were observed in FTIR spectrum of treated CYP. The TGA analysis of treated CEH showed a substantial improvement in thermal stability which was confirmed by increase in maximum thermal decomposition temperature (217°C) as compared to control (209°C). Similarly, the treated CYP also showed enhanced thermal stability as compared to control. DSC showed increase in melting temperature of treated CYP as compared to control. However the melting peak was absent in DSC of treated CEH which was probably due to rigid chain of the protein. The surface area of treated CEH was increased by 83% as compared to control. However, a decrease (7.3%) in surface area was observed in treated CYP. The particle size analysis of treated CEH showed a significant increase in average particle size (d50) and d99 value (maximum particle size below which 99% of particles are present) as compared to control sample. Similarly, the treated CYP also showed a substantial increase in d50 and d99 values which was probably due to the agglomeration of the particles which led to formation of bigger microparticles. The result showed that the biofield treated CEH and CYP could be used as a matrix for pharmaceutical applications.

Using next generation sequencing to describe epiphytic microbiota associated ...Agriculture Journal IJOEAR
Abstract— Its seems likely that agricultural management as diverse as certified organic and conventional IPM practices would impact the microbiota associated with crop surfaces differently. We sampled organic and conventionally managed apples at multiple time-points in a growing season and characterized the bacterial taxa associated with replicates of each treatment type. Surprisingly, no evidence of significant differences persisting across multiple time-points was observed. Significant differential abundance of certain taxa was documented but when it was, it was primarily associated with a single time-point making it difficult to understand if these observations resulted from an environmental or a treatment effect. Principal component analyses demonstrated that sampling time-point explained more of the differences between bacterial communities than treatment. Description of dominant shared bacterial families for both organic and conventional samples included Oxalobacteraceae, Pseudomonadaceae, Sphingomonadaceae and Enterobacteriaceae.

By 2050, the world’s population is estimated to exceed 9 billion people. A challenge to this rising food demand is that crops will have to be grown on the same or less land as today. Additionally, global climate change is causing considerable uncertainty in the ability of the current food production system to adapt to an unknown future.
To address these issues sustainably, scientists from many disciplines have been investigating ways to increase crop yields and prepare for a changing climate. Considerable effort has focused on enhancing the traits of the crop plants themselves, to enhance their growth, make them resistant to disease, or tolerant to environmental stressors like drought or high salinity conditions. Conversely, a growing area of research is looking at how microorganisms, such as bacteria and fungi, influence these plant characteristics.
The relationship between plants and microorganisms is well known. However, researchers are still working to understand the full complexity and extent of interactions between the two groups. We have seen that microbes are important for plant nutrient acquisition, plant growth and protection against disease. Certain types of bacteria are commercially available and used to increase yields and decrease fertilizer use (Farrar et al. 2014).

Cancer cell metabolism: special Reference to Lactate PathwayAADYARAJPANDEY1
Normal Cell Metabolism:
Cellular respiration describes the series of steps that cells use to break down sugar and other chemicals to get the energy we need to function.
Energy is stored in the bonds of glucose and when glucose is broken down, much of that energy is released.
Cell utilize energy in the form of ATP.
The first step of respiration is called glycolysis. In a series of steps, glycolysis breaks glucose into two smaller molecules - a chemical called pyruvate. A small amount of ATP is formed during this process.
Most healthy cells continue the breakdown in a second process, called the Kreb's cycle. The Kreb's cycle allows cells to “burn” the pyruvates made in glycolysis to get more ATP.
The last step in the breakdown of glucose is called oxidative phosphorylation (Ox-Phos).
It takes place in specialized cell structures called mitochondria. This process produces a large amount of ATP. Importantly, cells need oxygen to complete oxidative phosphorylation.
If a cell completes only glycolysis, only 2 molecules of ATP are made per glucose. However, if the cell completes the entire respiration process (glycolysis - Kreb's - oxidative phosphorylation), about 36 molecules of ATP are created, giving it much more energy to use.
IN CANCER CELL:
Unlike healthy cells that "burn" the entire molecule of sugar to capture a large amount of energy as ATP, cancer cells are wasteful.
Cancer cells only partially break down sugar molecules. They overuse the first step of respiration, glycolysis. They frequently do not complete the second step, oxidative phosphorylation.
This results in only 2 molecules of ATP per each glucose molecule instead of the 36 or so ATPs healthy cells gain. As a result, cancer cells need to use a lot more sugar molecules to get enough energy to survive.

introduction to WARBERG PHENOMENA:
WARBURG EFFECT Usually, cancer cells are highly glycolytic (glucose addiction) and take up more glucose than do normal cells from outside.
Otto Heinrich Warburg (; 8 October 1883 – 1 August 1970) In 1931 was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology for his "discovery of the nature and mode of action of the respiratory enzyme.
WARNBURG EFFECT : cancer cells under aerobic (well-oxygenated) conditions to metabolize glucose to lactate (aerobic glycolysis) is known as the Warburg effect. Warburg made the observation that tumor slices consume glucose and secrete lactate at a higher rate than normal tissues.
Observation of Io’s Resurfacing via Plume Deposition Using Ground-based Adapt...Sérgio Sacani
Since volcanic activity was first discovered on Io from Voyager images in 1979, changes
on Io’s surface have been monitored from both spacecraft and ground-based telescopes.
Here, we present the highest spatial resolution images of Io ever obtained from a groundbased telescope. These images, acquired by the SHARK-VIS instrument on the Large
Binocular Telescope, show evidence of a major resurfacing event on Io’s trailing hemisphere. When compared to the most recent spacecraft images, the SHARK-VIS images
show that a plume deposit from a powerful eruption at Pillan Patera has covered part
of the long-lived Pele plume deposit. Although this type of resurfacing event may be common on Io, few have been detected due to the rarity of spacecraft visits and the previously low spatial resolution available from Earth-based telescopes. The SHARK-VIS instrument ushers in a new era of high resolution imaging of Io’s surface using adaptive
optics at visible wavelengths.

Abstract: Recent studies report the effect of biofield treatment on changes in structural characteristics
of organic and inorganic matter, on cancer cells in vitro and on overall plant development. This study
tested the impact of the same treatment applied to lettuce and tomato seeds and transplants (Lactuca
sativa var. capitata and Lycopersiconesculentum var. Roma) in commercial plantings with and without
fertilizers and pesticides, in relation to yield, quality, and pest inhibition. Treated lettuce plants with
fertilizer and pesticide applications were more vigorous, exhibited less incidence of soil-borne fungal
wilt, and subsequent yield was statistically greater 43% compared to untreated plants. Treated plants
with no fertilizer or pesticide applications in the field behaved similarly to untreated plants that
received routine fertilizer and pest control inputs. Similarly, fertilizer applied and fertilizer non-applied
treated tomato plants exhibited a 25% and 31% increase in total observable yields respectively. Treated
tomato and lettuce plants also measured higher in total leaf tissue chlorophyll content. The
combination of biofield treatment along with administration of chemical additives demonstrated the
best results with statistically increased yields and higher pest resistance in both test cropping systems.
The specific mechanisms that lead to these preliminary results have yet to be determined.

INTRODUCTION
Information-containing biofield energies have been postulated to be associated with living organisms and to
affect their self-regulation processes (Rubik, 2002). Recent studies by Trivedi and Tallapragada (2008, 2009)
present enhanced and lasting transformations seen in the physical and structural properties of organic and
inorganic materials which were the effect of consciousness energy when transmitted using specific techniques.
These authors report that elemental diamond, graphite and activated charcoal powders showed measureable and
significant changes in their molecular structure, and go on to suggest that thebiofield energy may involve
electromagnetic and weak interactions.Dabhadeet al.(2009) suggest thatmeasurable changes in particle size and
hence surface area as well as crystallite size of two test substances, antimony and bismuth metal powders,which
they observed as a consequence of a similar treatment,was due to increased energy states caused within the
treated substances.Trivedi and Patil (2011) reported multiple year results on Alphonso Mangos in Asia. The
mango study showed yield increases and pest infestation decreases over a four year time period versus control
trees which on the contrary showed lower yields and increased pest pressure. More recently the biofield energy
was tested on Patchouli micropropagation (Patilet al., 2012) where it was reported to increase regeneration and
cause an overall improvement in plant health. In related studies, the biofield energy was reported to impact
cancer cells in vitro (Yount et al., 2012).The studies on living organisms are able to probe more relevant aspects
of the information content in biofield energies, in order to establish both the reality of the impact as well as its
nature. However, both the in vitro studies were in protected environments showing variability in the results. It
can be expected that adaptive forces would bebetter testedin vivo in the field where the normal challenge of the
environment is experienced and the informational integrity of the organism is also maintained. The nature of
thebiofield energy in these experiments may be expected to produce more well-defined results under such
conditions. However, the mango study was performed on a pre-existing pest infested mango orchard and does
not document the results of systematic treatment under a variety of conditions.
Although science has earlier tested such energies in plants, in the above-mentioned studies the scientific
facts to support such claimsare for the first time seeingreproducible and significant results in experimental
observations. The source of biofield energy treatments are those of an internationally reputed energy healer
whose name is here withheld according to recommended best scientific practice, but can be provided on demand

during plant cultivation.In this paper we report on the observed results of crop quality and yield of treated and
untreated tomato and lettuce plantings in organic conditions and in the presence of needbase fertilizers and
pesticides applied according to standard procedure. Scientific mechanismsare not here speculated upon; at this
