While choosing your lighting for growing plants indoors or aquarium lighting LED light bars could be a good option. Plants produce sugar with the process of photosynthesis in the presence of sun light. They require red and blue light to complete the process of photosynthesis. The red and blue light is present in the sun light but is not visible to the naked eye. When thinking of growing plants indoors there are lot things to consider than just the color of light. Indoor gardening needs a totally diverse approach as adequate natural light is generally absent. Incandescent lamps are fine for giving light for daily activities, but are not suitable for driving photosynthesis, as they have small output in the blue range and a great deal of their energy is transformed to heat. According to the studies carried out LED lights are found to be the best for maximum plant biological activities and energy efficiency. LED light bars can provide a low-priced and efficient source of lighting for...

Biotechnology has opened new frontiers in various sectors. These days with the help of biotechnology we are able to produce food crops, generate electricity and also find out cure for various dreaded diseases. The exceptional contribution of biotechnogy has led to research in various fields and on several inherited diseases such as autism. The main cause of autism in human beings is the fragile x syndrome. However, due to immense research skills of the scientists at at MIT’s Picower institute for learning and memory a cure to the mental retardation and autism has been discovered. The researchers have found out that a 50% decrease in the production of mGluR5 can lessen the signs of seizures and problems associated with the eye, nerves, brain, and memory and body growth. This experiment was successfully performed on a mouse model. This experimentation reversed almost all ailments of fragile x syndromes in a mouse.The spectacular advancement can lead to a better future for thos...

Leonardo DiCaprio   has always been a philanthropic celebrity, and now he’s teamed up with the World   Wildlife   Fund for a brand new campaign.   Together, the WWF and Leo will try to save tigers, who are on the brink of extinction. With as few as 3,200 tigers left in the wild, WWF and DiCaprio today kicked off Save Tigers Now. The campaign begins with an expedition to remote tiger habitats in Asia to document the wild tigers first hand and learn what needs to be done to save them from extinction.   Tiger populations are shrinking fast as the species is threatened by habitat loss and illegal poaching; their skins, bones and other body parts are used in many cultures as medicines, talismans, status symbols and clothing. More than 90 percent of historic tiger habitat no longer has tigers. Three tiger sub-species have gone extinct since the 1940s and a fourth one, the South China tiger, has not been seen in the wild for 25 years. But tigers can thrive if they...
