Published: October 2023

A set of 150 hybrids were evaluated in augmented design with three checks under rainfed and irrigated conditions at research farm of ICAR-Indian Institute of Oilseeds Research, Telangana and Anand Agricultural University, Anand, Gujarat to understand the environmental effect on node number and its influence on yield attributing traits. Results indicated that the number of nodes to the base of primary spike (NN) influenced not only days to 50% flowering (DFF) and yield traits but also plant canopy particularly under rainfed conditions. Under both rainfed and irrigated conditions, the genotypes with high node number, in general, recorded increased plant height, days to 50% flowering (DFF), primary spike length, and seed yield/plant. Under rainfed conditions, most of the early hybrids with NN <12 and DFF# 44 DAS recorded less seed yield, whereas, the yield potential was high in hybrids having NN 12 to 15 and DFF 45 to 50 DAS. However, no such pattern was noticed under irrigated conditions. Test weight and oil content were not influenced by node number or days for flowering.

Authors: GARIMA THAKUR  , SATISH PAUL  , ARJUN KUMAR
Published: October 2023

Induced mutation study was carried out to study the mutagenic effectiveness and efficiency ofthe mutagen ethyl methane sulphonate (EMS) in two genotypes of linseed, Him Alsi-2 and Kangra Local. On the basis of survivalpercentage in M1 generation under lab conditionsthe LD50 dose for both genotypes was estimated. Only three doses (one higher and one lower dose to LD50) were selected for raising M2 generation. Effects of these concentrations were studied on various morphological characteristics. Mutagen EMS was effective and efficient in producing chlorophyll and viable macromutations in M2 generation. Three types of chlorophyll mutants i.e. albina, xantha and radina were observed. Different types of alterations in seed color, seed texture, flower shape and plant type were observed. The macromutations although are not very useful for plant breeding but help in determining the effective mutagen doses and have also known to play an important role in evolution. EMS concentrations showing maximum effectiveness and efficiency in both varieties were different indicating varietal sensitivity towards EMS.

Published: October 2023

This study examined soybean growers' perception about climate change and variability, and their adaptation strategies in response to the perceived impacts of climate change. The multi-stage sampling method was employedto select 280 rural farmers in Dewas, Indore and Dhar districts located in Malwa plateau and Nimar valley ofMadhya Pradesh. The results revealed that the crop diversification is lost over a period of time and monocropping ofsoybean became popular in the study area. The introduction ofsoybean was found to be instrumental for enhancement in the cropping intensity ofthe area. Among abiotic weather-related stresses perceived bymajority offarmers were delayed arrival of monsoon, uneven and erratic rainfall, reduced number of rainy days, increased temperature and sunshine hours, and the reduced humidity. Majority of farmers perceived a decrease in annual rainfall. They also perceived that the biotic stresses (weeds, insects and diseases) had increased significantly over a period of time. All thesefactors were responsible for low yields. Survey also indicated that the mechanization increased substantially, and short duration varieties replaced the long duration soybean varieties. To reduce the perceived impacts of climate change, farmers adopted various farm-level adaptation strategies. The results of this study will provide baseline information for local governments, researchers, and policy-makers on farmers' perception of climate change and adaptation strategies.

A field experiment was conducted at College of Agriculture, Odisha University of Agriculture and Technology, Bhubaneswar on sandy loam soils during summer season of 2019 to study the effect of varied nutrient doses and tillage on the nutrient uptake and economics ofsunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) hybrids under lowland rice fallow environments. Three sunflower hybrids viz., DRSH-1, KBSH-44 and MSFH-17 were tested under three graded fertility levels RDF (recommended dose of fertilizers), 50% RDF (30: 40: 30 kg N: P2O5 : K2O /ha), 100% RDF (60: 80: 60 kg N: P2O5 : K2O /ha) and 150% RDF (90:120:90 kg N: P2O5: K2O/ha) and four tillage practices viz., reduced, minimum, zero tillage and conventional tillage practice. Sunflower under zero tillage recorded the highest uptake of N (52.65 kg /ha), P (21.87 kg/ha) and K (76.03 kg/ha) besides highest seed yield (1.91 t/ha). On the other hand, conventional tillage recorded the highest post-harvest soil available nitrogen (216.6 kg /ha), phosphorous (12.9 kg/ha) and potassium (214.4 kg/ha). Among the hybrids, KBSH-44 recorded significantly higher seed yield (1.81 t/ha) besides highest nutrient uptake. Raising sunflower hybrid KBSH-44 under rice fallow zero tillage conditions and fertilized with 150% RDF (90:120:90 kg N: P2O5 : K2O/ha) was found economically superior in terms of gross returns, net returns and B: C ratio (2.34).

Published: October 2023

A field experiment was conducted during 2017 and 2018 under drought stress (DS) and non-stress conditions (IR) to identify drought tolerant soybean accessions as well as agronomic and physiological traits contributing to drought stress tolerance. Sixty-four soybean accessions including released varieties, genetic stocks and five check varieties were sown in an augmented design. The traits contributing to total biomass viz., plant height, number of pods, number of branches, shoot-root dry weight at vegetative stage, and NDVI at vegetative as well as pod filling stage were associated with water-stress tolerance in soybean. Physiological traits viz., relative leaf water content (RWC), normalized vegetative index (NDVI) and chlorophyll index were higher in non-stressed crop. Similarly, higher activities ofthe gas exchange traits viz., photosynthetic rate (Pn), stomata conductance (Gs), intercellular CO2 concentration (Ci) and transpiration rate (Tr) were observed under non stress condition. On the basis of minimum yield reduction under stress and drought tolerance indices the soybean accessions RSC 10-46, TAMS 98-21, EC 241780, MACS 1281, HARDEE, MAUS 612, DS 9814, MACS 1460 and KDS 753 were observed as water stress tolerant while, EC 241695, LEE 54, MACS 1370, CAT 3466, PK 1029, VLS 75, AGS 228 and AMS 1002 were observed as water stress sensitive. These findings were confirmed by the cumulative rank due to drought tolerance indices such as stress susceptibility index (SSI), stress tolerance index (STI), tolerance (TOL), yield index (YI), drought resistance index (DRI), yield stability index (YSI), stress susceptibility percentage (SSPI), drought tolerance efficiency (DTE) and modified stress tolerance index (MSTI) as well as cluster analysis using drought tolerance indices, hence, could be useful in soybean improvement for water-stress tolerance.

Under the current scenario of increasing demand of edible oil and dwindling irrigation water supply, the development of drought mitigation strategies is the need of the hour to increase productivity and profitability of the Indian mustard (Brassica juncea L.). A field experiment was conducted to evaluate the field efficacy of the superabsorbent polymer (SAP: Pusa hydrogel) and its application rates 0, 1.5, 2.5 and 5.0 kg/ha under moisture stress and normal moisture conditions in a factorial randomized complete block design and replicated thrice. The SCMR, dry matter accumulation, 1000-seed weight, oil and biological yields, economic indicators of the Indian mustard and also the soil available N, P and S contents were reduced (p = 0.05) under moisture stress regime, but improved considerably with the use of SAP. Across the moisture regimes, the maximum oil yield (1.12 t/ha), biological yield (9.24 t/ha), harvest index (29.12 %), gross returns (` 116140/ha), net returns (` 74790/ha), B: C ratio (1.81) and economic efficiency (` 519.4/ha/day) were recorded with SAP @ 5.0 kg/ha. SAP @ 2.5 to 5.0 kg/ha improved oil yield and net returns by 3 % (0.04 t//ha) and 2 % (` 1980/ha), respectively under normal moisture regime, while under moisture stress these parameters were increased by 13% (0.12 t/ha) and 14% (` 8280/ha), respectively. Further, under moisture stress, the maximum B:C ratio (1.66) was recorded with 5.0 kg SAP/ha, while it was the maximum(2.05) with 2.5 kg SAP/ha under the normal moisture regime. Across the moisture regimes, SAP @ 5.0 kg/ha, being on par with 2.5 kg SAP/ha improved the soil organic carbon, available N, P, K and S by 29.27, 13.61, 14.10, 11.95 and 25.01%, respectively over the control. Thus, 5.0 kg SAP/ha under moisture stress and 2.5 kgSAP/ha under normal moisture condition can be recommended for increasing yield, profit, savingwater and better soil health in Indian mustard.

A critical review on role of biofertilizers in enhancing the productivity of oilseed crops
Authors: M JAYAKUMAR  , A SOLAIMALAI  , K BASKAR
Published: October 2023

Oilseeds are mainly cultivated as rainfed crop with poor input resources. This will have impact on plant health particularly plant nutrition, pests, diseases and weeds. Further, this problem is region specific and depends on the soil condition and climate. Biofertilizers are the products containing different types of beneficial microorganisms. Applications of biofertilizers have definite advantage over chemical fertilizersin oilseed crops. Chemical fertilizers supply nitrogen in higher concentrations whereas bio-fertilizers provide nutrients in small amounts in a sustained way. In addition to nutrients, certain growth promoting substances like hormones, vitamins, amino acids, etc are made available to plants. Bio-fertilizers application will have impact on organic agriculture, reduction of environmental pollution, soil health improvement and reduction in input use for oilseed crops. Current soil managementstrategies are mainlydependent on chemical based fertilizers, which caused a serious threat to human health and environment. The exploitation of beneficial microbes as a biofertilizer has become important in agriculture sector for their potential role in food safety and sustainable crop production. The eco-friendly approaches inspire a wide range of application of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPRs), endo and ectomycorrhizal fungi and many other useful microscopic organismsled to improved nutrient uptake, plant growth and plant tolerance to abiotic and biotic stress. The knowledge gained from the literatures appraised herein helped us to understand the physiological bases of biofertlizers towards sustainable agriculture in reducing problems associated with the use of chemicals fertilizers in oilseeds production.

Authors: C RAMANAIAH  , P KADIRVEL
Published: October 2023

Sunflower is a staple oilseed crop ofthe world. Genetic diversity in the parental lines is key for hybrid breeding programmes in sunflower. In this study, genetic diversity in a set of 102 parental lines (100 restorer and twoCMS) of sunflower was assessed using 69 polymorphic SSR markers. The genetic diversity parameters: average number of alleles (3.07) per locus, gene diversity (0.356) and polymorphism information content (0.296) revealed low to moderate genetic diversity in the restorer lines. The SSR marker ORS447 located on linkage group 2 was more informative with high number of alleles (10) and high PIC value (0.89). Cluster analysis (neighbour-joining tree) revealed three major genotypic groups. Model based STRUCTURE analysis showed recognizable population structure; based on membership coefficients(>80%), 82 genotypes were classified into two populations (K=2) and the remaining 20 genotypes were classified into admixture group. The Fst value (0.278) suggested that the populations were differentiated. Analysis of molecular variance resultsshowed that maximum of genetic variation (72%) was observed between the individuals within the population suggesting that the population was weakly structured. These results would be useful for selecting SSR markers for genotype characterization as well as choosing diverse parents for hybrid development programme in sunflower.

Published: October 2023

Genetic parameters of 50 castor hybrids developed from 10 newly developed monoecious lines and 5 stable pistillate lines were estimated in line x tester design. Analysis of combining ability depicted significant mean sum of squares for both general combining ability (GCA) and specific combining ability (SCA) for all the characters which indicated the presence of both additive and non-additive gene actions. The high amount of s 2 SCA and ratio of GCA to SCA variances near to zero indicated that the dominance gene effect was predominant in newly developed lines for all the characters under study. The highest positive gca effect was exhibited by MCP-1-1, for seed yield and number of capsules on primary raceme, effective length of primary raceme and height up to primary raceme. SKP-84 was also a good general combiner for 100 seed weight, number of capsules on primary raceme, nodes to primary raceme and height up to primary raceme. Among the male parents, MP-11-17 was found the best general combiner for cumulative seed yield, raceme length and numbers of capsules. Cross M-574 x MP-17-17 was the best cross for cumulative seed yield followed by MCP-3 x MP-7-17 and SKP-84 x MP-11-17. These combinations would be useful in breeding programme for improvement in seed yield of castor.

Published: October 2023

Insect pests are major biotic constraints limiting soybean production and quality. Soybean growers rely heavily on synthetic chemical insecticides to combat insect pests. Increasing concern for environmental awareness about the use of chemical insecticides has sparked interest in eco-friendly pest management alternatives. An experiment was conducted to assess Bt-127 suspension concentrate (SC) formulation as a component of IPM under real farm situation in Hegdoli village of Kotgiri Mandal, Nizamabad District, Telangana during kharif 2017-18. Incidence of semiloopers (Chrysodeixis acuta and Mocis undata) and tobacco caterpillar (Spodoptera litura) was lowered by 99.5% and 92.9% with the first spray of Bt-127 SC formulation while their incidence was lowered by 99.6% and 97.3%, respectively in farmer's practice with spray of emamectin benzoate. After second spray of Bt-127 SC formulation, incidence of S. litura was lowered by 91.3% and found on par with 91.5% lowering from spray of chlorantraniliprole in farmer's practice. Incidence of natural enemies in IPM field after first and second spray was higher at 0.84 and 0.72 per meter row length in comparison to 0.12 and 0.40, respectively in farmer's practice. The IPM module resulted in higher cost-benefit ratio (1: 2.36) as compared with farmer's practice (1: 1.61).

POSSIBLE EVIDENCE FOR THE EXISTENCE OF VOLCANOGENIC MAGMATISM IN THE SINYAYA RIVER BASIN AT THE SOUTHERN FLANK OF THE VILYUI SYNECLISE

The results of different-extension geological survey, exploration and thematic work methods show that the Vilyui syneclise is relatively amagmatic. However, the recent factual evidence in this region indicates the occurrence of magmatism of a different composition and age. This evidence includes kimberlite indicator mineral found in the sedimentary cover of the syneclise. Kimberlites or magmatic rocks of a different composition are not yet known there, so that any other signs of the presence of this type of rocks therein are of importance. As such a sign the authors consider a boulder of metamorphic rock found in the Archean greenstone succession in the lower reaches of the Sinyaya River at the southeastern flank of the Vilyui syneclise. The rock is similar in its mineral composition to garnet-staurolite-kyanite schist typical of the Barrovian metamorphic rocks series. The rocks of this mineral composition are common in the greenstone belts of the Aldan-Stanovoy Shield. In particular, they are typical of the Tungurchin metapelite unit of the TemulyakitTungurchin greenstone belt exposed in the western part of the shield. The straight line distance between the sratotype area of the Tungurchin Formation development and the place where the boulder was found is more than 600 km southwest of the Sinyaya River. So it is unlikely that the boulder was just transported along the Lena River basin and then to the Sinyaya River by, for example, the Quaternary glacial ice. A more realistic way the boulder appeared in the place where it was found would be its transportation from depth by volcanic pipe, i.e. the boulder is a xenolith from volcanic pipe. The volcanic pipe can be within a radius of a few tens of kilometers or less. The Archean basement therein lies at at a depth of a few hundreds of meters to 100 meters which implies transportation of so large xenolith to the surface during the volcanic pipe formation. Therefore, it can be implied that magmatic events occurred in the form of the Jurassic-Cretaceous or probably Middle Paleozoic volcanic pipe intrusion into the Sinyaya River basin area where the metamorphic xenolith was found.

This publication presents an empirical research of pronunciation mistakes of Czech students learning German as a second foreign language at elementary school. The aim of the research was to verify the extent of the students’ pronunciation difficulties with German pronunciation phenomena error-prone for Czech native speakers. The research determined in what way these errors manifest themselves in the transfer from the students’ previously acquired languages, i.e. their mother tongue (Czech) and the first foreign language learnt (English). Within the theoretical foundation, the focus is put on different concepts of pronunciation in terms of foreign language teaching objectives, definitions of language errors and their causes, the development of the German pronunciation standard and methodological approaches to error analysis.

O colapso dos ônibus no Rio de Janeiro durante a COVID-19 e seus impactos na mobilidade
Authors: Kleiman Mauro
Published: October 2023

O artigo apresenta elementos sobre o quadro dos transportes por ônibus no contexto da epidemia de Covid-19 no Rio de Janeiro. O objetivo do estudo foi o exame da redução muito expressiva do número de ônibus e das respectivas viagens e seus impactos na mobilidade, mormente da população de baixa renda. A metodologia combinou dados quantitativos de fontes secundárias com análise qualitativa de observação direta de campo. Como principais resultados podemos apontar para a análise que toma por base a referência que sendo o modo de deslocamentos majoritário na cidade os ônibus se observa uma situação de colapso para seu uso pela população. Aparece, assim sendo, uma redução significativa das possibilidades de se mover na cidade. Isto impacta mormente a população de mais baixa renda, muito dependente deste tipo de veículo e seus trajetos para seus deslocamentos moradia-trabalho-moradia e demais atividades. Fez aumentar o tempo de espera de ônibus, e , portanto faz as viagens terem maior duração e a superlotação dos poucos veículos que seguem rodando, ou mesmo não é possível as viagens nesta modalidade automotiva se expandindo o uso de vans, ou se buscando mais o trem ou metrô que também tiveram suas frotas reduzidas. Como considerações finais podemos ressaltar que os mais pobres durante a epidemia vêem reduzidas ou eliminadas suas possibilidades de movimentos diários, e ao mesmo tempo estarão expostos à maior grau de possibilidades de infectar-se face a inevitável aglomeração nos poucos veículos ainda ativos, dado a necessidade de seguirem trabalhando presencialmente.

Este estudo avaliar o Índice de Complexidade da Farmacoterapia (ICFT) de pacientes pediátricos com FC. Trata-se de um estudo transversal retrospectivo, realizado através da análise de prontuário de outubro de 2021 a outubro de 2022, em pacientes pediátricos de 0 a 18 anos com diagnóstico de FC acompanhados no ambulatório de pneumologia infantil de um centro de referência. Utilizou-se o ICFT para avaliação da farmacoterapia, sendo considerada alta complexidade ICFT>13,5. Foram incluídos no estudo 85 pacientes pediátricos acompanhados ambulatorialmente pelo farmacêutico clínico. Observou-se que todos os pacientes possuíam alta complexidade em sua farmacoterapia, com ICFT médio de 27,28. Os pacientes foram divididos em dois grupos conforme a idade: grupo 1 (0 > 6 anos) e grupo 2 (6 ≥ 18 anos). Ao analisar o perfil dos pacientes em relação à farmacoterapia, observou-se aumento da complexidade em relação a idade dos paciente, o grupo 1 apresentou uma média de ICFT igual a 23,9 e o grupo 2 igual a 29,5. A FC é uma doença com uma elevada complexidade da farmacoterapia. Conforme a idade do paciente, a doença vai se agravando e comprometendo muitas vezes o pulmão e outros sistemas, levando a inclusão de mais medicamentos. Conhecer a complexidade da farmacoterapia permite melhor monitoramento e acompanhamento da farmacoterapia, minimizando interferentes que possam estar relacionados a baixa adesão com orientações de uso desses medicamentos.

Neste livro, exploraramos um vasto horizonte de conhecimento que abrange desde o cultivo de plantas medicinais até questões cruciais relacionadas ao meio ambiente e à saúde. Cada capítulo é uma janela para um mundo de descobertas e investigações que têm impacto direto em nossas vidas. No campo da botânica, é investigado a germinação e o crescimento de mudas de Salvia officinalis L. e Pimenta Malagueta em diferentes substratos. Analisaremos também a influência de diferentes substratos no crescimento do nabo e as complexas interações entre o cajueiro anão precoce, a pimenta e a traça da castanha. Agricultura e sustentabilidade serão temas centrais à medida que exploramos a comparação entre ovos caipiras e convencionais na agricultura familiar e discutimos a precarização da agricultura familiar e a alimentação escolar após a pandemia da Covid-19. Além disso, examinaremos a resistência à polimixina em Klebsiella pneumoniae e a importância da análise cariotípica em sementes crioulas de Phaseolus lunatus L. No campo da sustentabilidade ambiental, investigaremos a captação de água de chuva para uso na agricultura e o potencial de sistemas de tratamento de águas residuárias na produtividade da biomassa algal. A busca por alternativas ecologicamente corretas nos levará à secagem de proteína do soro do queijo em secadores de leito de jorro convencionais e à avaliação microbiológica da fibra de caju para produtos plant-based. Por fim, exploraremos os impactos da poluição marinha por microplásticos em anêmonas do mar, refletindo sobre os desafios e perspectivas futuras para a conservação dos ecossistemas marinhos. Este livro é uma porta de entrada para um mundo de pesquisa interdisciplinar e descobertas que moldam nosso entendimento do ambiente natural e da agricultura sustentável.

A Brassica rapa L., também conhecida como nabo ou nabiça, é uma hortaliça que possui sua importância econômica em sua raiz tuberosa. O desenvolvimento e o crescimento adequado de um vegetal depende de inúmeros fatores, como por exemplo, o tipo de substrato utilizado. Assim, o objetivo desse estudo foi avaliar a germinação, vigor e crescimento de mudas de Brassica rapa L. (nabo) em dois substratos, um contendo 50% de vermiculita expandida misturada com terra vegetal e outro somente terra vegetal, a fim de verificar a melhor condição fornecida pelos substratos para o crescimento e desenvolvimento das mudas. Para isso, foi realizada a semeadura de 400 sementes de nabo em dois tratamentos (T1 e T2), um contendo como substrato somente terra vegetal Geolia® (T1) e outro contendo 50% de terra vegetal Geolia® + 50% vermiculita expandida de grânulo fino Vitaplan® (T2), que foram colocados em uma bandeja de 200 células cada, e posteriormente foi calculado a porcentagem de germinação, índice de velocidade de germinação, e acompanhado por cinco semanas os parâmetros de crescimento: área foliar específica, diâmetro do colo, número de folhas e altura. Ao final do experimento foi analisado o comprimento da raiz e massa seca. T1 apresentou um percentual de germinação 5% maior que T2, entretanto, o substrato terra vegetal apresentou sinais de compactação, impedindo uma irrigação eficiente e culminando na morte das mudas em poucos dias. Devido a isso, realizou-se a análise de crescimento das mudas somente para o T2. Neste caso, apenas os parâmetros de área foliar e número de folhas apresentaram diferenças significativas, entre os períodos analisados. Em relação aos dados de massa seca total a média foi de 0,032 gramas e para o comprimento da raiz uma média de 7,23 centímetros.

A proteína do soro do queijo, conhecida também pela população como soro do leite, teve sua demanda crescente na indústria de alimentos em decorrência do seu considerável valor nutricional rico em todos os aminoácidos essenciais (triptofano, fenilalanina, leucina, valina, isoleucina, lisina, treonina, metionina e histidina) e de cadeia ramificada (Branched-Chain Amino Acids - BCAA: valina, leucina e isoleucina), lipídeos, sais minerais e vitaminas do complexo B. Essa pesquisa teve como objetivo secar o aglomerado proteico obtido a partir do soro de queijo em secador de leito de jorro convencional, visando seu aproveitamento como fonte proteica em alimento. Tal processo ainda reduz a carga poluidora que seria lançada ao meio ambiente, proporcionando um benefício duplo. O soro de queijo foi fornecido por uma indústria de laticínios do município de Caturité - PB. Os melhores resultados obtidos durante os experimentos, foram para uma altura de leito igual a 11,5 cm, vazão do ar de entrada igual a 2,4 m3/h, 2% de aglomerado proteico alimentado em relação à quantidade de inerte utilizado e temperatura de 40°C. O processo de secagem do aglomerado proteico em leito de jorro convencional, apesar de não apresentar altos valores de rendimento para as condições estudadas, pode ser otimizado e assim ter sua eficiência melhorada. Logo pode ser usado como alternativa para secagem do aglomerado proteico em estudo.

Violence and the Sacred Revisited
Authors: Vizcaíno Rafael ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: October 2023

In this article, I seek to contribute to the recent philosophical interest in the phenomenon of narco-culture. I build on the intervention initiated by Carlos Alberto Sánchez’s A Sense of Brutality: Philosophy after Narco-Culture (2020) by articulating the spiritually “generative” aspects of violence. For this endeavor, I turn to the French philosopher René Girard, whose work audaciously understands community-building and the maintenance of social order as a violent process of sacralization. This conception of violence then permits me to challenge some of Sánchez’s interpretations of the violence and brutality of narco-culture. My argument is that any comprehensive analysis of the narco-world, just as any other existential option, must consider the spiritual component that, in Girard’s terms, can be expressed as a search for the sacred.

Background: Burkholderia Cepacia(B. Cepacia) is a gram-negative bacterium responsible both for colonization and for awide range of infections and clinical complications that significantly increasemorbidity and mortality. B. Cepacia is able to survive and replicate into antiseptic solutionsand invasive medicaldevices, thus representing potential reservoirs for hospital infections. Aim: Between April and August 2019 in the north of Italy, in two hospitals belonging to the same social healthdistrict (AULSS 8 Berica- West District), five cases of B. Cepaciasepsis were reported. This paper describes the epidemiological and microbiological investigation of the causalpathogen, the controlmeasures adopted to contain the epidemic and the results obtained. Methods: The Infection Control Committee (ICC) assessed relevant demographic characteristics and potential riskfactors of infected patients and collected environmental and equipment samples. Phenotypic and genotypic identification was carried out using microbiological methods of culture and MALDI-TOF technique. Findings: The B. Cepaciasepsis involved four oncological patientsand one cardiological patient who underwent aninvasive procedure under ultrasound guidance from April to August 2019 at one of the hospitals involved. The analyses highlighted the positivity for B. Cepacia in the ultrasound gel used for the eco-guidedprocedures. All samples were found to be sensitive to Meropenem. Conclusion: The infection controlmeasures put into effect permittedan effective management of the outbreakandhelped to reducethe risk of subsequent cases. The outbreak has revealed the need to draw up internal operating procedures that regulate punctually the grafting of invasive devices.

In this study, the moisture sorption characteristics of wheat-mango flakes in relation to their shelf-life in high-density polyethylene material were studied. A preliminary research work was done to ascertain the optimum acceptable levels of Mango pulp addition to wheat flake production using 0 to 80 % (w/v) of wheat and mango pulp. Sensory evaluation was done and the most accepted flake samples were selected, the main research, the level of mango pulp was the varied ratio of 0 to 50 giving rise to a total of 5 samples. Moisture sorption characteristics of the flakes were studied using standard methods. The goodness of fit of the various models was evaluated using the percentage root mean square of the errors (%RMS) for adsorption and desorption. In the adsorption mode, the RMS ranged from 14.36 to 43.62 (GAB), 13.82 to 67.69(BET), 2.69 to 12.97(OSWIN), 4.10 to 16.35 (HENDERSON) in W: M 100:0 sample. For W:M 90:10, the RMS ranged from 38.12 to 43.76 (GAB) 34.04 to 95.33 (BET), 3.24 to 4.48 (OSWIN), 1.89 to 13.85 (HENDERSON). For W: M 80:20, the RMS ranged from 29.48 to 90.85 (GAB), 18.10 to 68.72 (BET), 1.91 to 4.75 (OSWIN), 4.40 to 15.46 (HENDERSON). For W: M 70:30, the RMS ranged from 35.22 to 47.91 (GAB), 14.51 to 40.56 (BET), 2.81 to 4.20 (OSWIN), 2.32 to 13.78 (HENDERSON). For W:M 60:40, the RMS ranged from 23.59 to 55.91 (GAB), 14.41 to 42.96 (BET), 2.96 to 5.97 (OSWIN), 1.95 to 15.28 (HENDERSON). And for W:M 50:50, the values ranged from 41.20 to 55.10 (GAB),13.85 to 60.53 (BET), 1.78 to 5.65 (OSWIN), 1.25 to 14.35 (HENDERSON) respectively. Wheat-mango flakes sorption isotherm obeys type II curve and Oswin and Henderson model fits better and shelf-life for wheat-mango flake is greater than 12 months in high density polyethylene packaging film used as packaging material. Sensory evaluation revealed that acceptable flakes can be produced from wheat supplemented with mango fruit pulp. Blend formulation wheat: mango at 50:50 was mostly acceptable
