Effect of farm yard manure, vermicompost, chemical fertilizer and integrated weed management on yield, yield contributing characters and quality of mint (Mentha arvensis L.)

A field experiment was conducted at the research farm of Central Institute of Medicinal and Aromatic Plant (CIMAP), Lucknow, India, during 2009-10 to ascertain the response of farm yard manure (FYM), vermicompost (VC), inorganic input and integrated weed management on yield and yield contributing characters of mint (Mentha arvensis). The results revealed that application of 40 : 20 : 20 kg NPK/ha+FYM @ 5 t/ha+VC @ 2 t/ ha in conjunction with hand weeding at 30, 60 and 90+pendimethalin @ 1 l a. i. /ha as pre-emergence (T5W4) recorded the highest fresh herb yield of mint (240.5 q/ha) and it was at par with T2W4 (230.5 q/ha) as compared to others and the lowest was found in T1W1. Almost same trend as of oil yield (kg/ha) was observed with respect to oil content (%) and oil yield (kg/ha) of mint.
Multiscale musculoskeletal modeling of the lower limb to perform personalized simulations of movement

Computational modeling has been used for many decades to inform design and decision-making in several fields of engineering, such as aerospace, automotive, petroleum, and others. However, it still struggles to have a similar impact in fields of medicine, such as orthopaedics. Three of the challenges that have limited the use of computational modeling in the clinical practice and in product development are model validation, personalization, and realism. Validation is a challenge because several internal parameters of the human body, such as muscle forces, are not safely measurable in vivo and, consequently, a thorough comparison between model outputs and experimental measurements is not always possible. Personalization is an additional issue because the inherent variability across a population needs to be accounted for in a model. Finally, the computational burden of simulations performed with a musculoskeletal model limits its level of realism. The purpose of the work presented in this dissertation is to investigate the applicability of state-of-the-art tools, and propose novel approaches to foster an evolution of computational modeling in orthopaedics. Specifically, (1) the reliability of the knee contact force predictions of a musculoskeletal model commonly used in the literature was analyzed using a global probabilistic analysis for three subjects with instrumented implants; (2) subject-specific and activity-specific moment arms of the muscles spanning the knee
Printed Non-Metallic Textile-Based Carbon Antenna for Low-Cost Green Wearable Applications

Anticipated by 2035, a trillion wirelessly connected Internet of Everything (IoE) devices will be deployed in various pervasive applications. Therefore, sustainable and low-cost antennas are crucial for enabling an environmentally-friendly IoE. Furthermore, advances in carbon-based energy storage and harvesting devices motivates research in carbon-based antennas for wireless power transmission (WPT) applications. In this paper, we present the first non-metallic carbon-based microstrip patch antenna implemented on textiles for wearable applications. The antenna is fabricated on a standard felt/woven-polyester fabric substrate using stencil casting and demonstrated for S-band applications. The antenna maintains a wide 10% fractional bandwidth from 3.16 to 3.49 GHz, in agreement with the simulated bandwidth. The achieves at least 30% radiation efficiency, 10.4 dBi measured directivity, and 6.1 dBi measured gain. Based on the measured radiation properties of the patch, it is concluded that non-metallic carbon-based antennas are suitable for future wearable IoE applications.

A Study of Usage of Fresh Frozen Plasma in Liver Diseases and its Effect on PT and INR in Post Transfusional State

: A variety of abnormalities of coagulation is seen in patients with liver diseases. The magnitude of haemostatic abnormalities correlates with the degree of parenchymal damage. Reduced clotting factor synthesis may predispose to bleeding, which may be exacerbated by dysfibrinogenaemia, thrombocytopenia and increased fibrinolysis, reflected by prolonged Prothrombin Time (PT) and International Normalized Ratio (INR). Fresh Frozen Plasma (FFP) for transfusion is most often used when a patient has abnormal results on coagulation screening tests, as a treatment or for prophylaxis which is presumed to improve the clinical outcome and laboratory results.

Seasonal Variability and Effect of Sample Storage on Volatile Components in Calypogeia azurea

A change in the composition of specialized metabolites is often observed in stressed plants. Phytochemicals play an important role in adapting plants to the environment, particularly overcoming stress conditions such as temperature, humidity, and light intensity. In this study, seasonal variations in the concentrations of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were analysed in species of Calypogeia azurea. The article presents the effect of sample storage on volatile organic compounds present in Calypogeia liverwort cells and whether the collection habitats of the sample affect the content of phytochemicals. The VOCs of the species within the liverwort Calypogeia azurea were analysed by GC-MS. Compounds were isolated from plant material using the HS-SPME technique. The samples were collected over several years (2019–2021). Of the several dozen samples collected, 79 compounds were isolated, of which 47 were identified.
Assessing the subnational-level yield forecast skills of the 2019/20 season NARO-APCC Joint Crop Forecasting Service for Southern Hemisphere countries

An unstable supply of commodity crops and associated increases in food prices are recent and growing concerns due to increasing temperatures, changing precipitation patterns and increasing frequencies of some extreme climate events. Agricultural monitoring and forecasting can support national food agencies, international organizations and commercial entities in better responding to anticipated production shocks induced by seasonal climate extremes. The global seasonal crop forecasting service jointly developed in 2018 by the National Agriculture and Food Research Organization ( NARO ) , Japan and the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Climate Center ( APCC ) , South Korea is an emerging and unique example of agricultural forecasting tailored to major commodity crops ( maize, rice, wheat and soybean ) . The present study evaluates the skills of the NARO-APCC yield forecasts in five countries located in the Southern Hemisphere ( the 2019/20 season in Australia and Uruguay and the 2018/19 season in Argentina, Brazil and Paraguay ) , following the previous assessment for the 2019 season in Northern Hemisphere countries. The results reveal that the NARO-APCC forecasts can capture the major characteristics of reported state yields even six months before harvesting, with variations by crop ( the correlation coefficients calculated between the forecasted and reported state yields within a country in a season of interest were frequently over 0.8 for maize, rice and wheat and approximately 0.3 for soybean ) . In three-fifths of the 122 crop-state combinations assessed here, the NARO-APCC forecasts showed smaller forecast errors than those of the simple forecasts derived solely based on the reported yields. The findings of this study emphasize the novelty of long-range crop forecasting, such as the NARO-APCC forecasts that provide yield forecast information available even just after planting. Together, the NARO-APCC forecasts and existing regional crop forecasts contribute to making objective yield forecast information more seamlessly available throughout the season from planting to harvesting than what is currently available.
QUALITY CHARACTERISTICS OF MUFFINS PREPARED FROM
REPLACEMENT OF WHEAT WITH BARLEY: NUTRITIONAL,
ANTI-OXIDATIVE AND MICROBIAL POTENTIAL

The objective of present study was to investigate the sensorial, nutritional and microbial value and acceptance of muffins prepared from barley flour as partial replacement of wheat flour. The barley flour was incorporated in the proportion of 100:0, 95:5, 90:10, 85:15, 80:20 and 75:25% of wheat flour for the formulation of muffins and found that muffins containing barley flour were nutritionally superior. The results revealed that with increase in incorporation of barley flour, a positive increase in protein, total phenolic compounds and scavenging activity toward ABTS + and DPPH of muffins was observed. However, baking led to a reduction in phenolic and antioxidant properties. The muffins were also found microbiologically safe for human consumption. This study suggested that partial replacement of wheat flour with barley flours rich in nutritional and bioactive compounds, diversify the utilization of barley flour in various bakery products.
Dietary DHA Oil Supplementation Promotes Ovarian Development and Astaxanthin Deposition during the Ovarian Maturation of Chinese Mitten Crab Eriocheir sinensis

Astaxanthin (Axn) is an essential carotenoid for crustacean pigmentation, and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is an important fatty acid; both play key roles in maintaining the health of many aquaculture species. The present study explored the combined effect of dietary Axn and DHA on gonadal development and carotenoid deposition in adult females of the Chinese mitten crab, Eriocheir sinensis. A 2 × 3 factorial design of experimental diets was created to contain two levels of Axn (0 mg/kg and 100 mg/kg) and three levels of DHA oil (0%, 0.33%, and 0.67%). The results showed as follows: (1) For the culture performance, dietary DHA oil significantly increased the gonadosomatic index (GSI), and Diet 2 (Axn 0% + DHA oil 0.33%) had the highest GSI among all treatments. (2) For the enzymatic indicators in the hepatopancreas and hemolymph, supplementation with 0.33% DHA oil significantly improved the antioxidant capacity (T-AOC and MDA), immunity (AKP and ACP), and health status (e.g., GPT and GOT) of E. sinensis. (3) Supplementation with 100 mg/kg Axn significantly increased redness (a ∗ ) and Axn concentration in both the ovaries and hepatopancreas, and supplementation with 0.33% or 0.67% DHA oil produced a further significant improvement in Axn concentration when the diets were supplemented with 100 mg/kg of Axn. (4) As for proximate composition, dietary Axn and DHA significantly increased the deposition of total lipids and triacylglycerol in the hepatopancreas. As expected, the crabs fed diets with DHA supplementation showed an increase in the DHA percentage and DHA/EPA ratio in the ovaries and hepatopancreas. In conclusion, dietary Axn and DHA oil had positive effects on ovarian development in E. sinensis females. The optimal combination of dietary Axn and DHA oil was determined to be approximately 100 mg/kg and 0.33%, respectively, for this species during ovarian maturation.
Comparative Study of Different Formats of MCQs: Multiple True-False and Single Best Answer Test Formats, in a New Medical School of Malaysia

Introduction: Multiple choice questions (MCQs) alone or in conjunction with other test instruments are extensively used in high-stakes examination in medical institutions. Amongst numerous genres of MCQ style of exam with five options, it seems that examinees have greater chance to get correct answers for multiple true-false (MTF) than single best answer (SBA). Moreover, there has been no previous literature review revealed prediction and correlation of MCQ test format with overall student's performance. Objectives: This study, therefore, examined students' performance between these two evaluation techniques and correlated them with other assessment outcomes. Materials and Methods: The calculated contribution results of SBA orthopedic and negative no-carry-over marked MTF surgery questions of Year 3 students enrolled in Session (2011/12) and Session (2012/13) in UniSZA were analyzed separately for each year. In addition, the correlation coefficient (r) was figured out to determine the linear relationship between each exam style and other performance results. Results: Both academic year results pointed out that the students got higher marks in SBA questions than MTF quiz. SBA test results were found to be well correlated with clinical marks (objective structure clinical examination (OSCE) and long case examination and modified essay question (MEQ). Conclusion: The findings of this study encouraged the use of SBA quiz in place of MTF test format for examinations. However, the diversity of marking systems, competence of lecturers, teaching techniques and question difficulty indexes between these two different subject matters may lead to biased conclusion. Thus, further studies of comparison between these two examination styles conducting in the same subject are requisite to get more reliable and unbiased inferences.
Assessment of Flange Diffuser Structures to Improve the Power Generation of a Diffuser Augmented Wind Turbine

Wind energy has become the most popular renewable based power plant for the last decades due to its environment benighted and large natural availability. Although modern wind turbine successfully installed worldwide, some areas with low speed wind characteristic might require a special innovation to increase the amount of conversion of extracted wind energy into electric power. One of among popular techniques for the low speed wind turbine is Diffuser Augmented Wind Turbine (DAWT) which are continued to develop from time to time for example by using numerical simulation as an early stages before manufacturing. In this paper a numerical simulations are performed to investigate the effect of attached flange on wind velocity characteristics. Numerical simulations were carried out for the flow field around various flange diffuser type structures to improve the performance of a DAWT. The present studies specifically investigate the effect of attached flange to outlet diffuser with various flange’s angle (0°, 10°, 20°, 30°) on the wind velocity characteristics. Numerical studies were conducted using the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) method. The studies demonstrate that the curved diffuser with flange 10° generates the strongest increment of the wind velocity compared to the other configurations. The maximum velocity inside the diffuser increases up to 115.14%. It is found that the wind velocity at the diffuser centreline is not capable to represent the overall velocity of each section. The curved diffuser with flange 10° shows the highest increment of the average wind velocity along diffuser with the greatest increment of 102.4 % at x/L = 0.36, and the (CFD).

Synthesis and Biological Characterization of the New Glycolipid Lactose Undecylenate (URB1418)

As a follow-up to our previous studies on glycolipid surfactants, a new molecule, that is lactose 6′-O-undecylenate (URB1418), was investigated. To this end, a practical synthesis and studies aimed at exploring its specific properties were carried out. URB1418 showed antifungal activities against Trichophyton rubrum F2 and Candida albicans ATCC 10231 (MIC 512 μg/mL) and no significant antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. At the same time, it presented anti-inflammatory properties, as documented by the dose-dependent reduction in LPS-induced NO release in RAW 264.7 cells, while a low antioxidant capacity in the range of concentrations tested (EC50 > 200 µM) was also observed. Moreover, URB1418 offers the advantage of being more stable than the reference polyunsaturated lactose esters and of being synthesized using a “green” procedure, involving an enzymatic method, high yield and low manufacturing cost. For all these reasons and the absence of toxicity (HaCaT cells), the new glycolipid presented herein could be considered an interesting compound for applications in various fields.
