Application of red pitaya powder as a natural food colourant in fruit pastille
Authors: Yee Low Pinn , Ping Than Chin , Kui Lim Pek , Wah Chan Sook
Published: March 2017

Background: Confectionary products meet the important consumers’ need states of fun and enjoyment, especially among children. Synthetic colourant had been applied as a colouring agent in confectionery products for decades, however various adverse health effects have been reported after consumption. Hence, usage of natural colourant has increased enormously as it confers functional and nutraceutical benefits. Red pitaya, a common and popular fruit cultivated in South-east Asian countries. It is rich betacyanin content that gives the fruit a red-violet colour. Hence, red pitaya is a potential source of natural colorant as an alternative to the synthetic colorant.Objective: This research was aimed to produce fruit pastille with red pitaya powder applied as a natural colourant.Method: Production of red pitaya powder was achieved through spray drying process. Fruit pastille was prepared and subjected to antioxidant, stability and sensory analysis.Results: The Physicochemical study showed that pastille incorporated with red pitaya powder exhibited significantly (p<0.05) higher antioxidant properties than the blank pastille (control). An eight weeks storage stability study revealed that betacyanin content of pastille incorporated with pitaya powder remained stable for the first four weeks of storage. Besides, no significant change was observed in redness (a*) of pastille throughout the storage study. Sensory study was carried out to assess the consumer preference on pastille incorporated with pitaya powder and synthetic colourant. Colour attribute of pastille incorporated with red pitaya powder has gained significantly (p<0.05) higher liking that the one added with synthetic colour.Conclusion: Red pitaya powder could be a potential natural colourant for gummy confectionery.
Delegation in our Justice-Seeking Constitution
Authors: Sager Lawrence
Published: March 2017

The place of the written Constitution in our constitutional practice is defined secondarily, from outside the text, not commanded by the text. Like moral readers of our constitutional practice, originalists of all stripes have to argue from outside the text. This makes the new originalist turn to the theory of language come too early; the place of such theory is necessarily subordinate to a convincing moral account of our practice as a whole. To lament the existence of constitutional provisions that do not provide legible descriptions of encompassing states of affairs —as the new originalists implicitly do— is to badly misunderstand a morally salient element of our constitutional practice. The non-encompassing provisions of the Constitution are not incomplete, and hence failed instructions; rather they are complete, successful delegations of authority to constitutionally responsible officials. A delegatory constitutional instruction hands off responsibility and authority; in order to do that, it must be non-encompassing. This is a virtue, not a liability of the written Constitution. The purpose of our constitutional practice is justice-seeking. It aims at better aligning our institutions, policies, laws and the political community as a whole, with the requirements of justice. It aims, that is, at our making moral progress as a political community. Delegations of constitutional authority and responsibility invite the partnership of contemporary constitutional actors, in the justice-seeking enterprise, including and especially courts. Our constitutional courts are common law courts; they are, that is, reason-giving and precedent- drawn, features that make them worthy partners in that enterprise.
Reflexiones filosóficas sobre la antropología del derecho
Authors: Mañón Garibay Guillermo José
Published: March 2017

En los últimos años se ha visto aumentar significativamente los resultados de las ciencias neurocognitivas y el estudio de los diferentes mecanismos que actúan sobre la conciencia, sobre la identidad personal, sobre el comportamiento libre, sobre la conciencia de culpa o arrepentimiento. Este trabajo analiza la conducta normativa del hombre desde el punto de vista antropológico, derivado de los recientes avances biológicos, médicos, bioquímicos y psicológicos. Dicha perspectiva representa, sin lugar a dudas, un logro en el estudio inter, multi y transdisciplinario del hombre y su conducta, en específico de aquella organizada por reglas. El artículo sugiere que responder a la pregunta sobre la relevancia de las propiedades básicas del cerebro, su actividad electroquímica, su plasticidad sináptica o el tipo de neurotransmisión, para el derecho no puede provenir sino de la filosofía.

Authors: Llaguno Thomas José Julián
Published: March 2017

El siguiente artículo busca caracterizar el proceso de lucha por la tierra en el valle de Sixaola utilizando diferentes fuentes escritas y orales. A partir de este caso se reflejan los impactos del conflicto en la recreación del campesinado como sujeto político y en la transformación de las relaciones sociales propias de una plantación, lo cual permitió el desarrollo de una comunidad más compleja. Con base en lo anterior, se reflexiona a partir de un proceso de vinculación de varios años con la población del lugar y se debaten las perspectivas de una localidad que, si bien olvidada por la literatura académica, permite una ventana de entrada a una problemática más compleja sobre el tema agrario en Costa Rica. ABSTRACT The following paper explores theprocess of struggle for land in the valley of Sixaola using different written and oral sources. This case seeks to reflect the impact that this conflict had in the recreation of the peasantry as a political subject and the transformation of social relations that allowed the development of a community. With this, we capture some reflections from a process of linking several years with the local population and put in debate the prospects for a town that has been forgotten by the academic literature and a window that allows entry to a more complex problems on the land struggles in Costa Rica.

Banking union through Hungarian eyes–assessment of a possible close cooperation
Authors: Szombati Anikó
Published: March 2017

Legislation laying down the first two pillars of the institutional system of the Banking Union was finalised in April 2014. In accordance with the regulations, non-euro area Member States, including Hungary, may notify the ECB at any time if they wish to participate in the common system even before the euro is adopted. The paper aims at summarising the possible pros and cons vis-à-vis the Banking Union from a Hungarian perspective. It highlights the reasons for not opting in at the inception of the new supervisory system and also gives indications about those major milestones that could give rise to the reconsideration of the present position.
In its existing form, the single supervisory and crisis management mechanism has not achieved the initial target, i.e. the separation of the stability of national banking systems and the fiscal capacity of Member States and the elimination of interdependencies. In addition, close cooperation implies weaker powers than those provided by actual membership, and the separation of central bank and supervisory functions carries risks in non-euro area countries. By contrast, the attraction of Banking Union membership lies in the opportunity to join a uniform European system, a wider analyst base and ultimately, the “ammunition” of the EUR 98 billion available for crisis management in comparison to the Hungarian banking system. In October 2013, a uniform supervisory system integrated into the central bank was set up in Hungary, and the domestic resolution institutional system was complete by the end of 2014. Therefore, until the finalisation of the Banking Union through the creation of the common deposit insurance fund and a common fiscal backstop, it is reasonable to put the decision to join on hold; indeed, such a decision should be made in light of several factors presented in this study.
Research in plant morphoanatomy in the province of Vojvodina in the 20th century
Authors: Lukovic Jadranka
Published: March 2017

In order to understand the diversity of flora and vegetation in a region, the
knowledge of the biology of particular plant species is very important. Under
the influence of numerios complex biotic and abiotic factors, biological
plasticity of the species is reflected in the morphological level through a
series of macro and micro adaptations. The subject of the initial research
was the analysis of the external plant form, which was implemented in the
fields of plant systematics and taxonomy. In the mid-20th century, with the
development of the microtechnical equipment, morphoanatomy become a separate
scientific area. Numerous researchers contributed to its development. The
contribution of some of them is the subject of this paper. This paper gives a
general overview of scientific results in different areas of plant
morphoanatomy, resulting from researches carred out in the province of
Vojvodina during the 20th century, as well as a list of bibliographic units
published in scientific journals.
Physicians in Srem in XVIII and XIX century: Distinguished botanists
Authors: Maksimovic Jovan , Maksimovic Marko
Published: March 2017

It was necessary for the first physicians to have the knowledge of plants,
because phytotherapy was an integral part of medicine from the very
beginning. For this reason, botany was a significant part of the curriculum
at medical faculties in the XVIII and XIX century. Some professors at these
faculties were known in international scientific circles as prominent
botanists (P?l Kitaibel, August Kanitz, Giovanni Scopoli, Carl von Linn?,
etc.). After the liberation from the Turkish rule, flora was insufficiently
explored in the territory of today?s Vojvodina, which made it an interesting
area for botanical studies undertaken by science professors from the
universities in Vienna, Pest, and Cluj. A significant contribution to their
scientific work was given by researchers from Srem, who in addition to their
medical and pharmaceutical work practiced also botany. Some of them had their
results published in publications and some became members of the European
scientific natural history societies (Andreas Budai, Georgius Streim,
Bartholom?us Emmanuel Godra, Mathias Kirchbaum, and Andreas Wolny).

A Reiflingi esemény hatása az Északi-Mészkőalpok és az Aggteleki-hegység középső-triász fejlődésére
Authors: Velledits Felicitász , Lein Richard , Krystyn Leopold , Péró Csaba , Piros Olga , Blau Joachim
Published: March 2017

A Neotethys-óceán északi selfjének üledékképződésében jelentős változás következet be a középső-triász Binodosus szubzónájában (anisusi korszak, pelsói alkorszak). A sekélytengeri karbonátokat éles határral pelágikus mészkövek váltották fel, melyek bázisán gyakran tufitok is megjelennek (Reiflingi esemény). Az üledékképződésben bekövetkezett változás a pelsói korú karbonátrámpa ideiglenes megfulladását jelentette. Bár a jelenséget az Alp–Kárpáti–Dinári-térség számos feltárásából leírták, a rámpa megfulladásának időpontját illetően megoszlik a kutatók véleménye.Kutatásainkban két, jelenleg egymástól több száz km távolságra lévő területen, az Északi-Mészkőalpokban és az Aggteleki-hegységben vizsgáltuk a Steinalmi rámpa megfulladásának időpontját, és megállapítottuk, hogy mi okozta a karbonátrámpa megfulladását.Az Északi-Mészkőalpokban vizsgált szelvények: a Juvavikumban Schreiergraben, Schreierkogel, a Bajuvarikumban pedig Nixhöhle, Hocheck és Palfau. A karbonátrámpa (Steinalmi, illetve Annabergi Mészkő) megfulladása mindenütt a pelsói során következett be. Szárazföldi kitettségre (meteorikus diagenezis, karsztosodás) utaló nyomokat nem találtunk. A Bajuvarikum szelvényeiben a sekélytengeri képződményeket fedő pelágikus medencében képződött Reiflingi Mészkő legalsó része is pelsói korú. A schreiergrabeni feltárásban a Schreyeralmi Mészkő legalsó részén lévő mélytengeri lejtőbreccsa szintén pelsói korú. Schreierkogelnél a Schreyeralmi Mészkő alsó szintje csak a Steinalmi Mészkő felső részét harántoló késő-pelsói és kora-illír korú hasadékkitöltésekben őrződött meg.Az Aggteleki-hegységben (Szilicikum) a pelsói korú Steinalmi Mészkő vastagsága (145–155 m) és az egymást követő mikrofáciesek sorozata a vizsgált területen azonos. A Baradla-barlangban a Steinalmi Mészkövet harántoló neptuni telérekben talált conodonták három különböző időszakot jeleznek: 1) Binodosus szubzóna (késő-pelsói), 2) késő-pelsói, kora–középső-illír, 3) Trinodosus–Reitzi zóna (kora–középső-illír). A Schreyeralmi Mészkő a késő-pelsói–középső-illír időszak alatt ülepedett le.A Nagy-Jenei-tető ÉK-i részén felvett szelvényben a Steinalmi Mészkő egyenetlen felületére települő Schreyeralmi Mészkő bázisán pelsói és kora–középső-illír korú conodonták együtt fordulnak elő (kondenzált üledékképződés).A Steinalmi rámpa befulladása mindkét területen a késő-pelsóiban kövekezett be. A Neotethys-óceán riftesedése miatt a kéreg kivékonyodott, az aljzat lesüllyedt, a kéreg felső része szegmentálódott, a blokkok kibillentek és félárkok jöttek létre. A pelágikus mészkövek mindkét területen a differenciálódott aljzaton ülepedtek le.

Published: March 2017

Gluten free products remain the cornerstone for celiac patients. Insufficiency, poverty and little offered about gluten free products (quality and quantity) represented a high obstacle for Egyptian celiac patients. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to modify a single screw extruder to produce gluten–free pasta (GFP) (tagliatelle type). The GFP was made from corn flour under screw rotation speed (N) of 10, 25 and 50 rpm at 40, 65, 90 and 115 ºC of barrel temperature (BT). Extruder performance was evaluated as specific mechanical energy (SME) and expansion ratio (Er). The cooking quality of GFP as optimum cooking time (OCT), cooked yield (CY), swelling (Sw), cooking losses (CL) and sensory characteristics (appearance, colour, taste, mouth feel and overall acceptability) were evaluated. The better results of the GFP sensory evaluation were obtained at BT= 80 ºC, N =25 rpm and Er ≈ 1.38 with OCT ≈ 3.3 min, CY= 196%, Sw = 210% and CL= 16.3%. All parameters were given a direct proportion with processing variables N and BT, except CL. Furthermore, it can be predicted cooking properties values for GFP by SME value using the following equation; SME » 1.8675 (Er) + 0.8037 » 0.0608 (OCT)1.5984  » 8×10-17 (CY)6.7878 » 2×10-9 (Sw)3.494  » -0.0306 (CL) + 0.7877.
Safety vs credibility: West Papua Media and the challenge of protecting sources in dangerous places
Authors: Davies Kayt
Published: March 2017

West Papua Media (WPM) is an innovative media outlet established in 2007 in response to the ongoing human rights crisis in the Indonesian provinces that self-identify as West Papua. The context of its establishment included rising hope about the potential of citizen media to empower repressed publics, complaints from mainstream media about the difficulty of establishing the credibility of reports emerging from the provinces, a ban on foreign media, and political moves by Australia to prioritise its relationship with the Indonesian government over demanding an end to oppressive military behaviour in West Papua. This article documents the strategies WPM has pioneered to bolster its credibility and protect its journalists and sources who work and live in an oppressive context. It also contextualises these strategies in relation to standard journalism processes (Lamble, 2004, 2011); current best practice about the protection of journalists in conflict zones (Cramer, 2009); and emerging concepts of global journalism ethics (Ward, 2010).

The potential of prophecy: Māori prophetism and the community development
Authors: Rangiwai Byron
Published: March 2017

In nineteenth century Aotearoa-New Zealand prophet-leaders rose up to challenge the hegemony of imperialism by melding Indigenous epistemologies with introduced ones. In this sense Māori prophets blended the old world with the new as a means of both cultural survival and resistance against colonialism. One such nineteenth century prophet-leader was Te Kooti Arikirangi Te Turuki (c.1832-c.1891) who blended traditional Māori knowledge with biblical ideas, knowing that for Māori traditions to survive, they needed to be synthesised with introduced ideas, thus avoiding complete obliteration.

Te Kooti gave many prophecies, some of which were delivered as riddles rich with metaphor and mystery. As a result of severe land loss in the Rangitaiki Valley in the Bay of Plenty of New Zealand at the hands of a Pākehā (European) man, Te Kooti issued a prophecy of promise and restoration in which the future return of the land was guaranteed.

Within the Māori sub-tribes of Patuheuheu and Ngāti Haka, to whom this prophecy was given, Te Kooti’s revelations gained new meaning; his words are continually being transported from history into contemporary times. This paper will explore and analyse the ways in which this prophecy is being used today within the Patuheuheu and Ngāti Haka sub-tribes and how this research is using this local knowledge to build a culturally appropriate, transformative community praxis and development model.

Education reform efforts typically begin with a conceptual perspective before implementation. Thus, developing Islamic education usually begins with a study of a figure and his educational thought. And one of the most influential figures whose thought which has Sufi religious pattern has dominated educational thinking atmosphere over the centuries since his death. The purpose of education according to al-Ghazali was to get closer to Allah. He came with a view that the most noble job is to educate: to become a teacher.

PEMIKIRAN PENDIDIKAN ABU A'LA AL MAUDUDI (ANALISIS KRITIS ATAS PEMBAHARUAN SISTEM PENDIDIKAN ABU A'LA AL MAUDUDI
Authors: Ma'ruf Ma'ruf

Abul A'la al-Maududi is known as one of the leading writers of Islam in Pakistan who held the school of thought of neo-revivalist Islam, as compiled by Fazlur Rahman. Although he was known as an ulama, thinker and politician, he also contributed to the development of Islamic education. Islamic education institutions should serve as an alternative to Western modern education, in which it should not only develop science alone, but also understand the divine light through the Qur'an and Sunahtullah. This, in his words, is called the foundation of tauhid in education. He also suggested the Islamic education should be critical of modern science developed by the West.

Keywords: Islamic Education, Basic of Tauhid, the Divine Light.
PERAN IAIN PONTIANAK DALAM PENCEGAHAN PEMAHAMAN RADIKALISME AGAMA
Authors: Siregar Hamka
Published: March 2017

The historicity of the State Institute of Islamic Studies (IAIN) Pontianak actually brings us to an understanding that in fact IAIN Pontianak has so far taken part in preparing alumni who are skilled and competent in the field of Islamic religious sciences, such as Islamic education, Islamic law, and Islamic dakwa. This also signifies the responsibility of IAIN Pontianak in shaping the ‘considerate and tolerant understanding of religion’ and minimizing forms of religious radicalism on campus. This will be discussed further in this paper.
KONSTELASI KURIKULUM PENDIDIKAN DI INDONESIA
Authors: Abong Rustam
Published: March 2017

Curriculum in Indonesia is always related to the constellation of power, and therefore the direction and substance of the curriculum are determined by the decision of state authorities and non-state subsystems, or complying to a certain notion and concept of education. Constellation of power and complexity of curriculum can be seen in the instruction of Competency-Based Curriculum (KBK), school-based curriculum (KTSP) and 2013 Curriculum. After all, there is no guarantee that these curriculums will be able to develop students’ competency and build their character in line with the national education goals as mandated by Law No. 20/2003 on National Education System. In fact, there is nothing wrong with the curriculum; it is the fault of policy makers of education. The Indonesian people need political will of the government. Curriculum is not the only factor that determines the quality of education. Nor is it the only tool to realize the vision of education. However, curriculum can serve as a strategic device to seed the interests of power. Changes in curriculum in fact generate a strong constellation of power in the curriculum itself, especially in determining the content of education, so no wonder education in Indonesia is “subjugated” by curriculums with business and political interests.
Effect of Iron deficiency on glycation of hemoglobin in non diabetics

Published: March 2017

Background: Hemoglobin A1C (HbA1c) has been adopted by physicians as a surrogated for monitoring glycemic control. The use of HbA1c for the diagnosis of diabetes is now widely advocated despite caveats to its use. HbA1c concentrations are influenced by several factors including red blood cells (RBC) turnover. There are many types of anemia that affect glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) values, but iron deficiency anemia (IDA) one of the most common. Further research needs to focus on the mechanistic reasons why HbA1c is higher in IDA. The study attempts to discern clinical differences in HbA1c levels in patients with IDA, compared to patients without IDA & showing the direction of such differences.Methods: 50 non diabetic anemic patients and 50 age matched healthy subjects were involved in this study. Hematological investigations were done and fasting & post prandial (PP) glucose and HbA1c level were measured in all the subjects.Results: The mean HbA1c [9.10±1.08%] in the patients with IDA was higher than that in the control non anemic group [5.21±0.45%] [P<0.001] There was no differences in the levels of fasting and PP glucose between the IDA & the control groups. [P>0.05]Conclusions: HbA1c is likely to be affected by IDA with a spurious increase in HbA1c values, conversely non IDA may lead to confusion when diagnosing diabetes using HbA1c. This article clearly identifies especially the types of anemia likely to have significantly impact on the reliability HbA1c.Ann. Clin. Chem. Lab. Med. 2016:2(2); 4-7

Authors: Prakash Satyam , Yadav Khushbu
Published: March 2017

Background and Objectives: The accountability of nurses for nutritional care and best nutritional practices in nutritional management has been shown to improve patient outcomes at hospitals. Several studies had been conducted before to explore the level of nutritional knowledge among nurses in different countries but there is paucity of data among nursing students. Therefore, the present study was designed to focus on bachelor level nursing students about the therapeutic nutritional towards CVDsMaterial and Methods: A cross sectional descriptive study was conducted among 97 nursing students studying in B.Sc. nursing and PBBN programme. Random sampling technique was used. Structured questionnaire was distributed to each participant to choose the most correct answer. The collected data was entered in Microsoft Excel for analysis. The level of knowledge was assessed on the basis of percentage score.Results: Out of total students, 42% were less than or equal to 20 years and 58% were greater than 20 years. Most of the students were from Dhanusha district. Almost all respondents had heard about the different types of diet, CVD (98.96%) but 1.03% respondent was not familiar with CVD. 93.81% respondents knew high blood cholesterol increases the incidence of heart disease and 85.56% responded that caffeinated beverage is harmful for myocardial infarction. The poor knowledge was found about good fats and bad fats among respondents.Conclusion: The basic information regarding CVDs was significant but the therapeutic nutritional knowledge among the nursing students was found to be satisfactory. Therefore, the improvement in the curriculum of undergraduate nursing courses is necessary regarding the proper therapeutic nutritional knowledge for its integration into health services effectively at hospitals.Janaki Medical College Journal of Medical Sciences (2016) Vol. 4 (2): 24-32

OBJECTIVE

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been shown to localize to gliomas after intravascular delivery. Because these cells home to areas of tissue injury, the authors hypothesized that the administration of ionizing radiation (IR) to tumor would enhance the tropism of MSCs to gliomas. Additionally, they sought to identify which radiation-induced factors might attract MSCs.

METHODS

To assess the effect of IR on MSC migration in vitro, transwell assays using conditioned medium (CM) from an irradiated commercially available glioma cell line (U87) and from irradiated patient-derived glioma stem-like cells (GSCs; GSC7-2 and GSC11) were employed. For in vivo testing, green fluorescent protein (GFP)-labeled MSCs were injected into the carotid artery of nude mice harboring orthotopic U87, GSC7-2, or GSC17 xenografts that were treated with either 0 or 10 Gy of IR, and brain sections were quantitatively analyzed by immunofluorescence for GFP-positive cells. These GSCs were used because GSC7-2 is a weak attractor of MSCs at baseline, whereas GSC17 is a strong attractor. To determine the factors implicated in IR-induced tropism, CM from irradiated GSC7-2 and from GSC11 was assayed with a cytokine array and quantitative ELISA.

RESULTS

Transwell migration assays revealed statistically significant enhanced MSC migration to CM from irradiated U87, GSC7-2, and GSC11 compared with nonirradiated controls and in a dose-dependent manner. After their intravascular delivery into nude mice harboring orthotopic gliomas, MSCs engrafted more successfully in irradiated U87 (p = 0.036), compared with nonirradiated controls. IR also significantly increased the tropism of MSCs to GSC7-2 xenografts (p = 0.043), which are known to attract MSCs only poorly at baseline (weak-attractor GSCs). Ionizing radiation also increased the engraftment of MSCs in strong-attractor GSC17 xenografts, but these increases did not reach statistical significance. The chemokine CCL2 was released by GSC7-2 and GSC11 after irradiation in a dose-dependent manner and mediated in vitro transwell migration of MSCs. Immunohistochemistry revealed increased CCL2 in irradiated GSC7-2 gliomas near the site of MSC engraftment.

CONCLUSIONS

Administering IR to gliomas enhances MSC localization, particularly in GSCs that attract MSCs poorly at baseline. The chemokine CCL2 appears to play a crucial role in the IR-induced tropism of MSCs to gliomas.

Published: March 2017

BACKGROUND:

Range of Motion (ROM) and passive torque have been widely used to evaluate flexibility stretching protocols, but little attention has been given to the reliability of these measurements.

OBJECTIVE:

To verify the interday reliability of isokinetic dynamometer for assessing ROM measures based on discomfort perception(initial and maximum), static and dynamic measures of passive torque during a leg extension movement on a young adult sample.

METHODS:

Twenty students (13 men; 7 women) aged between 18 and 30 years attended the laboratory to perform the test and retest with 2-7 days interval. The evaluations included: Initial Discomfort Angle (IDA), Passive dynamic torque (Stiffness), Passive static torque (Viscoelastic Stress Relaxation-VSR) and Maximal Discomfort Angle (MDA). Reliability was tested by the Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC), one-sample t-test and Bland-Altman charts.

RESULTS:

Stiffness (ICC = 0.93), IDA (ICC = 0.90) and MDA(ICC = 0.87) showed excellent reliability values, while VSR had moderate ones (ICC = 0.59). Bland-Altman plots indicated bias close or equal to zero. The one-sample t-test for all measures reinforced the absence of a systematic error.

CONCLUSIONS:

Dynamic and static stiffness measures and ROM based on the subject's discomfort perception may be applied to relevant clinical issues.

Published: March 2017

OBJECTIVE:

To evaluate the effect of kinesiotaping therapy on the pain and discomfort associated with ankle sprains in Korean university students using a pretest-posttest experimental design with a non-equivalent control group.

METHOD:

Kinesiotaping was applied once and maintained for three consecutive days(N = 26). Control subjects had a salicylic acid component medicine patch applied once a day, for three consecutive days (N = 27). Pain and discomfort before application and at 10 minutes, 24 hours and 48 hours after application were measured.

RESULTS:

There was a significant between-group difference at each time point after application (p < 0.001), with lower pain and discomfort scores in the kinesiotaping group.

CONCLUSIONS:

Kinesiotaping may be easily applied to rapidly improve the short-term pain and discomfort associated with ankle sprains.

Two wheel tractor (Power tiller) is the common means of soil tillage and other farm operations in Bangladesh due to easy access in fragmented land size with affordable price. A low cost and small robust 2WT driven (12 hp) No-till seeder has been developed with press wheel attachment and inclined plate seed meter assembly in Farm Machinery & Postharvest Process Engineering Division, BARI, Bangladesh for seeding different kinds of seeds. This is a pull type implement hitched at drawbar point of 2WT replacing the regular rotary part. The developed No-till seeder was used in the farmers field of Rajshahi areas for wheat, maize, pulses, and rice establishment during the year 2011-2014. The planter can pull 4 tynes in soft and medium hard soil but 3 tynes for hard soil. The planter was capable to apply seed and fertilizer in the furrows. The width and depth of the furrow opening were 30 mm and 60 mm, respectively. The planting depth, row spacing and seed rate can be adjusted according to standard practices. The No-till seeder works effectively through high density crop residue (1.5-2.4 t/ha) without any problem as there are sufficient residue clearances between toolbar and ground surface. Depending on the level of weed situation, round up herbicide was applied 2 days before of planting. There were significant yield difference in wheat, pulses but rice yield was lower than conventional transplanting method. No-till planted crops show less lodging tendency compare to conventional planted crops. There were significant cost differences between no-till and conventional method. The planting costs of wheat and maize in Notill system were 60% and 86% less than conventional planting method. It also reduces the average turn around time 7-9 days between the two crops. The effective area coverage by the seeder was 0.13ha/hr. The No-till seeder is a low cost (US$ 350-400; without power unit), light in weight and local manufacturer can fabricate complete unit within a short period of time. The No-till seeder can be used in other countries where 2WT is the common farming equipment.Bangladesh J. Agril. Res. 42(1): 27-34, March 2017
