EFFECT OF HYDROMAGNETIC SQUEEZE FILM LUBRICATION OF MICROPOLAR FLUID BETWEEN TWO ELLIPTICAL PLATES

The present study exhibits a theoretical analysis of squeeze film lubrication of micropolar fluid between two elliptic plates in the presence of magnetic field. The modified Reynolds equation is derived by applying theory of hydromagnetic flow and Eringen’s micro continuum theory along with micro polar fluid model. It is noticed that the effects of non-Newtonian squeeze film provides an increase in film pressure, load carrying capacity and ensure lengthened of squeezing time of approach as compared to classical Newtonian case. Further, in the presence of magnetic field; a higher film pressure, load carrying capacity and longer squeezing time of approach for squeeze film lubrication of micropolar fluid are found. These behaviors become more prominent for larger values of the Hartmann number, the fluid gap number and the coupling number.
Influence of Bone Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cell Therapy on Oxidative Stress Intensity in Minimally Conscious State Patients

Neurological disorders, including minimally conscious state (MCS), may be associated with the presence of high concentrations of reactive oxygen species within the central nervous system. Regarding the documented role of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in oxidative stress neutralization, the aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of bone marrow-derived MSC (BM-MSC) transplantation on selected markers of oxidative stress in MCS patients. Antioxidant capacity was measured in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and plasma collected from nine patients aged between 19 and 45 years, remaining in MCS for 3 to 14 months. Total antioxidant capacity, ascorbic acid and ascorbate concentrations, superoxide dismutase, catalase, and peroxidase activity were analyzed and the presence of tested antioxidants in the CSF and plasma was confirmed. Higher ascorbic acid (AA) content and catalase (CAT) activity were noted in CSF relative to plasma, whereas superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and total antioxidant capacity were higher in plasma relative to CSF. Total antioxidant capacity measured in CSF was greater after BM-MSC transplantations. The content of ascorbates was lower and CAT activity was higher both in CSF and plasma after the administration of BM-MSC. The above results suggest that MSCs modulate oxidative stress intensity in MCS patients, mainly via ascorbates and CAT activity.
Effect of extrusion of soybean meal on feed spectroscopic molecular structures and on performance, blood metabolites and nutrient digestibility of Holstein dairy calves

Objective Performance and physiological responses of dairy calves may change by using extruded soybean meal (ESBM) instead of common soybean meal (SBM) in starter feed. The aims of the current study were i) to determine the effect of extrusion processing of SBM on protein electrophoretic size, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) structures and Cornell Net Carbohydrate and Protein System (CNCPS) protein sub-fractions and ii) to determine the effect of substitution of SBM with ESBM in starter feed of Holstein heifer calves during pre and post-weaning on performance, nutrient digestibility, and blood metabolites. Methods The SBM was substituted with ESBM at the level of 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% (dry matter [DM] basis). Fifty heifer calves (initial body weight 40.3±0.63 kg) were used for the study. After birth, animals were fed colostrum for 3 days and then they were fed whole milk until weaning. Animals had free access to starter feed and water during the study. Results Extrusion of SBM decreased electrophoretic protein size and increased rapidly degradable true protein fraction, changed FTIR protein and amide II region. With increasing level of ESBM in the diet, starter intake increased quadratically during the pre-weaning period (p<0.05) and body weight, DM intake and average daily gain increased linearly during the post-weaning and the whole study period (p<0.05). Tbe DM and crude protein digestibilities at week 14 and blood glucose and beta hydroxybutyric acid increased linearly in calves as the level of ESBM increased in the diet (p<0.05). Conclusion Dairy calves performance and physiological responses were sensitive to SBM protein characteristics including electrophoretic size, FTIR structures and CNCPS protein fractions.

The simulation results showed that the fuzzy PI controller could effectively enhance trajectory tracking precision.
HEPATOPROTECTIVE EFFECT OF ARTICHOKE LEAVES AQUEOUS EXTRACT IN CCL4 INTOXICATED RATS

The phytochemical screening of Artichoke leaves aqueous extract (ALE) was undertaken and its protective effect against carbon tetrachloride (CCL4)-induced hepatotoxicity in rats was studied. Fifty mature male rats were randomized into 5 equal groups as follows: (1) negative (normal) control, (2) positive (intoxicated non-treated) control, (3) standard (Silymarin-pretreated, 50 mg/kg), (4) pretreated with ALE in dose 200 mg/kg and (5) pretreated with ALE in dose 400 mg/kg, respectively. CCL4 was subcutaneously injected to all groups except the negative control during the last week of experiment to induce hepatotoxicity. Silymarin and ALE were orally given to rats in daily doses for 6 weeks. At the end of experiment, rats were weighed, sacrificed and blood samples were collected for serum biochemical analyses. Livers of the sacrificed rats were taken for assaying activities of antioxidant enzymes and histopathology. The phytochemical screening revealed that ALE contains flavonoids, saponins, alkaloids, tannins, glycosides, and devoid of resins and triterpenes. Oral pretreatments with ALE increased body weight gain; normalized serum levels of AST, ALT and ALP enzymes, total cholesterol, triglycerides, low density lipoprotein, and total bilirubin, and increased levels of total proteins. There were also increases in activities of tissue superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase and catalase antioxidant enzymes with mitigation of renal tubular necrosis induced by CCL4 in the liver. These results denote that ALE has hepatoprotective, hypolipidemic and antioxidant effects in hepatotoxic rats. Therefore, intake of Artichoke leaves as herbal tea may be beneficial for patients who suffer from liver diseases.
Pulsed dye laser alone versus its combination with topical ivermectin 1% in treatment of Rosacea: a randomized comparative study

Abstract Background While the etiology of rosacea is multifactorial, it is not surprising that treatment has been controversial. Pulsed dye laser (PDL) has been successfully used to treat vascular components of rosacea. Ivermectin 1% cream is an emerging treatment of rosacea. Objective To provide a comprehensive clinical and dermatoscopic comparative study between the efficacy and safety of pulsed dye laser alone versus its combination with topical ivermectin 1% in the treatment of rosacea. Materials and methods Thirty Patients were randomly divided into two groups. Group A (n = 15) treated with 585 nm PDL, and group B (n = 15) treated with 585 nm PDL and topical ivermectin 1% cream. All patients received four laser treatments with a 4-week interval. The efficacy of treatment was assessed by photographs and dermoscopic photomicrographs at baseline and 3 months after the final treatment. The patient’s level of satisfaction was also recorded. Results At the 3-month follow-up, group B induced better clinical improvement than group A. However, this difference was not significant. No serious adverse events were observed in either treatment group. Conclusion This study supports the efficacy of PDL treatment for patients with rosacea. PDL could be more effective when combined with ivermectin 1% cream.
REVIEW PAPER ON REAL TIME PASSWORD AUTHENTICATION SYSTEM FOR ATM

— The main purpose of this system is to enhance the security level in the ATM (Automatic Teller Machine) transaction for user’s. The existing ATM system are not enough secure, as those system rely on static PIN which is fixed and there are chances of security breaches, so the propose system will overcome these problem by designing in a simple way with TAC (Transaction Authentication Code) with RFID technology using LPC2148 as a series controller of ARM7, for unique identification of the user here low frequency RFID card is used. First user must register with his cell phone number at the time of registration. When the user’s RFID card read then he has to enter PIN (Personal Identification Number) then TAC which is a 4 digit code and it is different for every transaction it will send to the user’s cell phone with the help of GSM. The 4 digit TAC should be entered by the user, after that transaction will be done. The propose system will an added layer of security that enriches the existing ATM transaction system.

The listed companies in China's food and beverage industry have good profitability and low risk. They have the characteristics of stable performance growth and broad space for development. These companies have always attracted the attention of many investors and have become a unique sector in the stock market. This paper firstly sort out literature review on impact mechanism between capital structure and firm performance, and then use 58 listed companies in China's food and beverage industry from 2011 to 2015 as sample, meanwhile dividing the companies into high-growth and low-growth companies. Finally, the empirical test was conducted with fixed effect regression respectively. The empirical results show that there is a weak degree of negative correlation between asset-liability ratio and performance of listed companies in China's food and beverage industry. It concludes that: China's food and beverage companies prefer equity financing, failing to make full use of financial leverage, meanwhile there is a structural imbalance in the development of capital markets.
Modeling Elliptical Curve Cryptography Keys using Back Propagation Algorithm

Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs) are the newest for of Ad Hoc Networks in which moving vehicles act as routers and nodes to form a network. VANETs use many cryptographic approaches like symmetric key approaches, public key approaches, certificate revocation, pseudonym based approaches, identity-based cryptography, identity-based signature, Elliptical Curve Cryptography (ECC) etc. for secure communication. These techniques use public and private keys for enhancing the security of messages and all these keys are stored on hardware devices like TPDs (Temper Proof Devices) in VANETs. TPDs are protected by the cryptographic algorithms. In this present era of technology these algorithms and their online simulators are freely available on internet and can be easily intruded. There is a potential need to enhance the security of these keys. In this paper we worked on enhancing the security of ECC keys stored in TPDs of VANETs using a specific network of Artificial Neural Networks.
DIETARY CARBOHYDRATE INTAKE AND FASTING BLOOD GLUCOSE AMONG PEOPLE VISIT NON-COMMUNICABLE DISEASE RISK FACTOR SURVEILLANCE IN PUSKESMAS KEDUNGMUNDU

Long lasting elevation of blood glucose concentrations, can result blindness, renal failure, vascular disease and neuropathy. Therefore, blood glucose concentration need to be maintained within narrow limits. The source of carbohydrate which has high dietary glycemic index causes stronger blood glucose response. The objective was to describe the dietary carbohydrate intake profile and fasting blood glucose profile among adult people. In this cross sectional study, the 100 subjects used were taken randomly from people who visit non communicable disease risk factor surveillance in PuskesmasKedungmundu, Semarang city. Fasting blood glucose was measured by glucose test strips and dietary carbohydrate intake was measured by 24 hours food recall. The data were analyzed using descriptive analysis by SPSS 20 and Nutrisurvey software. Results showed that the prevalence of impaired fasting glucose was 35%, and the prevalence of excess dietary carbohydrate intake was 17%, the average mean value of blood glucose among subjects was 104,20 mg/dl, while the mean of daily carbohydrate intake was 234,85 gram. The highest level of fasting blood glucose was 388 mg/dl and the lowest one was 60 mg/dl. The maximum value of carbohydrate consumption in one day was 481,70 gram while the minimum value was 80,30 gram. Reduction in carbohydrate intake in food and drink may be considered to decrease the problem of impaired fasting glucose.
Dietary effect of feed grade enzymes on growth and digestive physiology of broiler chickens fed rice bran-based diet

The tremendous increase in human population in world over has brought about increase demand for protein especially that of animal origin, which according to Hodas1 have become very expensive. The decline in animal protein intake has been attributed to high cost of animal products.2 An average person in developing countries consumes less protein than his counterparts in Europe and America. Hence Bamino & Dipeow3 has posited that protein intake in developing country like Nigeria is below the required 75g per person per day estimation by Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO). This is grossly inadequate and presents a treat of serious malnutrition. Talabi4 however observed that meat protein shortage continues to increase every day in Nigeria despite various efforts to improve its productivity in the field of cattle production. Ayay5 on the other hand, opined that the awareness of the need for adequate protein in human diet had greatly increased in many developing regions of the world and poultry has been widely acknowledged as a rich source of dietary protein. Feed supply has remained a major constraint in poultry production due to the ever increasing cost of conventional feedstuffs. Hossain et al.6 observed that poultry feed cost represent about 75% to 80% of the total cost of poultry production. With the progressive increase in the Nigerian population, the demand for animal protein source such as broiler could only be met by improving their performance with readily sourced and non-competitive feedstuffs like rice bran based diets treated with enzymes.

A Distributed Polarizing Transmission System for Frequency Selective Fading Channels

Motivated by Arikan's channel polarization that shows the occurrence of capacity-achieving code sequences, we address the scheme design issues by switching to polarizing frequency selective fading channels while transmitting information symbols in a source-relay-destination MIMO-OFDM relay communication system. A simple polar-and-forward (PF) MIMO relay scheme, with source node polar coding and relay nodes polar coding, is proposed to provide an alternative solution for transmitting with higher reliability than the conventional decode- and-forward/amplify-and-forward (DF/AF) relay schemes. In the proposed scheme, OFDM modulator is implemented at source node, some simple operations, namely time reversion, complex con- jugation and polarization, are implemented at relay nodes, and the cyclic prefix (CP) removal is performed at destination node. It is divided into two symmetrical polarizing relay systems, i.e., the down-polarizing system and the up-polarizing system, which result in different capacities for the polar system. We analyze the bit error rate (BER) performance with the fixed polar system equipped with four OFDM blocks, which is an idea approach to select signal sequences that tend to polarize in terms of the reliability under certain combining and splitting the transmitted OFDMs in the frequency selective fading (FSF) channels. The polar system has a salient recursiveness feature, and thus the transmitted information signals embedded in the polar code can be decoded with a low-complexity decoder.
Bisphenol A Electrochemical Sensor Using Graphene Oxide and β-Cyclodextrin-Functionalized Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes.

Bisphenol A, an endocrine disrupting compound, is widely used in food and beverage packaging, and it then leaches in food and source water cycles, and thus must be monitored. Here, we report a simple, low-cost and sensitive electrochemical sensor using graphene oxide and β-cyclodextrin functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes for the detection of BPA in water. This sensor electrode system combines the high surface area of graphene oxide and carbon nanotubes, and the superior host-guest interaction capability of β-cyclodextrin. A diffusion-controlled oxidation reaction involving equal numbers of protons and electrons facilitated the electrochemical sensing of BPA. The sensor showed a two-step linear response from 0.05-5 µM and 5-30 μM with a limit of detection of 6 nM. The sensors also exhibited a reproducible and stable response over one month with negligible interference from common inorganic and organic species, and an excellent recovery with real water samples. The proposed electrochemical sensor can be promising for the development of simple low-cost water quality monitoring system for monitoring of BPA in water.
