GENDER SENSITISATION ANTIDOTE FOR SELF RELIANCE
Authors: Dr. Ankita Gupta
Published: June 2020

"Self-Reliance" is an 1841 essay written by American transcendentalist philosopher and essayist Ralph Waldo Emerson. It contains the most thorough statement of one of Emerson's recurrent themes: the need for each individual to avoid conformity and false consistency, and follow his own instincts and ideas. .
The debate surrounding the self reliance will be meaningless if issues related to women in a large country like India will not only be inappropriate but sometimes even misleading. Women specific and women related legislations have been enacted to safeguard the rights and interest of women, besides protecting against discrimination, violence, and atrocities and also to prevent socially undesirable practices. Despite the constitutional mandate of equal legal status for the girl child, the same is yet to be realized. The de jure laws have not been translated into de facto situation for various reasons such as illiteracy, social practices, prejudices, cultural norms based on patriarchal values, poor representation of women in policy-making, poverty, regional disparity in development, lack of access and opportunity to information and resources etc.
According to the Uttar Pradesh Govt. sources, female life expectancy is less than 55 years and the under-five mortality rate is as high as 141 per thousand.
Australia was the first country to develop a gender-sensitive budget, with the Federal government publishing in 1984 the first comprehensive audit of a government budget for its impact on women and girls. Empowerment of women is essentially the process of upliftment of economic, social and political status of women, the traditionally underprivileged ones, in the society. It involves the building up of a society wherein in women can breathe without the fear of oppression, exploitation, apprehension, discrimination and the general feeling of persecution which goes with being a woman in a traditionally male dominated structure.
One major therapy prescribed by woman empowerment advocates is empowering women through legislation for ensuring participation in political decision making.
Such an approach provides the women with a constitutional platform to stand up to men, to raise their voice on issues concerning women oppression, subjugation and related issues and thus in effect, providing them with an identity in an orthodox male dominated socio-political set up, in addition to providing a much needed forum to seek redressal of problems directly affecting them: the true essence of empowerment.
The present paper attempts to look into the dynamism of the process whereby women empowerment is achieved (?) through legislation or women participation in the Panchayati Raj Institution.
KEYWORDS: Self Reliance, Gender Bugdeting, Women empowerment, Panchayati Raj Institutions.

Authors: Dallakyan G. A. , Isakova E. F. , Gershkovich D. M.
Published: June 2020

It is shown that at the direct contact with shungite (10.00 and 100.00 g/l) as well as in the presence of shungite isolated on the dialysis sac (100.00 g/l), the survival and fertility of Daphnia magna decrease as compared to the control during 10 days of observation. Shungite effect is inter alia linked to a mechanical failure of Daphnia magna filtration apparatus. Concentrations of 0.01 and 0.10 g/l did not affect crustacean survival and fertility. Shungite in the centration of 0.01 g/l lowered toxic effect of potassium in concentrations of 0.005-0.02 g/l on both Ceriodaphnia and Daphnia magna.

Authors: Laharia Reena , Patel Paresh
Published: June 2020

Histopathology is an important diseases diagnostic tool. Penetration into the host is the first step for a microbial agent to mutiply and invade the vital organs of its host. Like all animals fishes suffers from environmental, stress, which is followed by pathogenic attacks and parasitic afflictions causing Epizootic Ulcerative syndrome (EUS). Histological investigations of tissues of EUS infected fish Channa punctatus showed an eroded epidermis, necrosis of skeletal muscles and intense granulomatous inflammation, infiltration of mixed inflammatory cells in muscular as well as submuscular layers of the skin. Also a characteristic focal grannular granuloma in the gill lamellae was noticed. The electron microscopic observations, of the tissue cells of the fishe showed viruses like Parvovirus even at a red spot stage. Thus, it can be said that Viruses being crystalline in nature have cellular penetrating power & the EUS infection follows the phyllogenetic evolution in life in true sense i.e. RNA virus followed by Bacterial cell and then Fungus. Thus, the presence of EUS in Channa punctatus is confirmed histologically.

Published: June 2020

Pelargonium graveolens is a species in the Pelargonium genus and falls within the plant family of Geraniaceae. The total production of essential oil is estimated at 300-350 tone, whereas the world market demands more than 400 t per year. Now geranium crop has been cultivated for commercial purpose in areas with high altitude and milder climate. P. graveolens is also come up very well mainly in the Nilgiris and Kodaikanal Hilly region of Tamil Nadu and around the Bangalore in Karnataka in an area of 2000 ha. At medium altitude, rose scented geranium is an important high-value perennial crop but grown as seasonal in plain areas. This aromatic shrub can reach up to the height of 70 cm and lateral of 90cm. In-spite of this the commercial cultivation of Rose-scented geranium still scanty being it’s a high economic value in per unit area and time crops as compared to other medicinal and aromatic plants (MAPs). Because, rose-scented geranium is sensitive to rainy season and noted 100% mortality in open field condition during rainy season. Hence the major bottleneck in its popularization seems to be saving of quality planting material in rainy season. Hence, there is an urgent need to develop new approach or way through agronomic, breeding, acclimatization, etc to save quality planting material during rainy season. If, we are able to develop this type approach, then Rose-scented geranium can play a beneficial role in doubling the income of Indian farmers.

Microbial Chromate Reductases: Novel and Potent Mediators in Chromium Bioremediation-A Review
Authors: Mala John Geraldine Sandana Mala , Takeuchi Satoru , Dhanasingh Sujatha  , Mani Uthirappan
Published: June 2020

Heavy metal pollution from the growing industrialization are a significant cause of environmental concern.Chromium (Cr) is commonly used in the production of stainless steel, textile dyeing, electroplating, as nuclear coolants and largely in chrome tanning of hides and skins. About 90% of leather is produced by chrome tanning and the leather industry contributes to an overload of Cr toxicity in tannery effluents. Accumulation of Cr6+ is carcinogenic, genotoxic and teratogenic to organisms. Biological methods are ‘green’ approaches for chromium bioremediation and microorganisms are the desired candidates for pollution abatement. Microbial chromate reduction is mediated by chromate reductases (ChrRs) which may be expressed constitutively or inducibly. ChrRs have been produced by a number of bacteria, fungi and yeasts and may be extracellular or localized in the membrane or cytosol. ChrRs are dependent on electron donors such as reduced Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) or reduced Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) or reduced Glutathione (GSH) as cofactors. In chromate reduction by ChrRs, Cr6+ undergo one electron transfer to produce an unstable Cr5+ radical that is converted to stable and less toxic Cr3+. Putative ChrR genomic sequences have been studied with 99% sequence similarity in Gram negative bacteria. ChrRs are valuable resources in different environments for chromate reduction. This review is to discuss the expression and characteristics of ChrRs and their mechanisms in reduction of Cr6+ toxicity in order to provide a comprehensive understanding of this novel class of enzymes for promisingapplications in Cr bioremediation.

Published: June 2020

Alzheimer's disease is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by memory loss and impairment of language. Alzheimer's disease is strongly associated with oxidative stress and impairment in the cholinergic pathway, which results in decreased levels of acetylcholine in certain areas of the brain. Hence, inhibition of acetylcholinesterase activity has been recognized as an acceptable treatment against Alzheimer's disease. Nature provides an array of bioactive compounds, which may protect against free radical damage and inhibit acetylcholinesterase activity. This study compares the in vitro antioxidant and anticholinesterase activities of hydroalcoholic extracts of five cultivars of Rosa Damascena Mill. petals (R. damascena 'Bulgarica', R. damascena 'Faik', R. damascena 'Iranica', R. damascena 'Complex-635' and R. damascena 'Complex-637') from Isparta, Turkey. The antioxidant activities of the hydroalcoholic extracts were tested for ferric ion reduction and DPPH radical scavenging activities. The anti-acetylcholinesterase activity was also evaluated. All rose cultivars showed a high potency for scavenging free radical and inhibiting acetylcholinesterase activity. There was a significant correlation between antioxidant and acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activity. Among cultivars, Complex-635 showed the highest inhibitory effect with an IC50 value of 3.92 µg/mL. Our results suggest that all these extracts may have the potential to treat Alzheimer's disease with Complex-635 showing more promise.

The study of scale weights of the ancient centers of the Northern Pontic region is of greater importance both for the study of metrology, monetary and weight systems of this region, and for understanding the general picture of trade and economic processes in ancient times. This paper presents small-sized weights made of bronze coins that are kept in the Scientific Repository of the Institute of Archaeology of the NAS of Ukraine. All of them are the chance finds from the territory of ancient sites of the Northern Pontic region. These findings were donated by V. A. Anokhin along with other finds of lead weights and bronze ingots. The collection contains weights in the shape of sub-square and sub-rectangular tiles of lead and bronze, round lead weights, weights made of bronze coins which are the chance finds from the territory of Olbia and its settlements, and other sites. During the processing this collection a small group of weights made of coins was distinguished. Among seven published weights six ones are made of Olbia coins and one of Panticapaeum. Each scale weight was studied in detail, basing of which the weight of each item was correlated with the existing monetary systems. Thus, it was possible to determine the metrological standards to which each particular instance belongs. The study of these findings showed that weights made of Olbian bronze coins belong to the Olbian metrological system as well as, in particular, the control scale weight which corresponds to 30 Olbian tetartemories, and the item made of bronze Panticapaeum coin refers to the Panticapaeum monetary system.

A Study of Newspaper Reading Habits Among Members of the Debaters’ Club of Okuapemman School, Akropong-Akuapem.
Authors: Awuttey Wisdom Mawuli
Published: June 2020

The study sought to find out newspaper reading habits of the Debaters’ Club of Okuapemman School, Akropong-Akuapem. Two theories, the Uses and Gratification Theory; and the Dependency Theory underpinned this qualitative study. Purposive sampling and convenient sampling techniques were used to select participants. In all, twelve students were purposively and conveniently selected. Four participants were interviewed and the eight were taken through the focus group discussion. The findings are that the school library is the main source of getting newspapers for the members of the debaters’ club. Also, members of the school’s debaters’ club had varied newspaper reading habits (styles). They scanned or skimmed as well as did an intensive reading. They engaged in silent reading at the school library or engaged in reading aloud when they had the opportunity to read newspapers outside the library or when at home. To them, newspaper reading has been a means of gratification. Since the students who read newspapers could be described as ‘scanners,’ the paper recommends that teachers should sensitize students on the importance of newspapers in education, and the need to develop good newspaper reading habits as well as overall reading. Keywords: newspaper, reading habits, media, gratification, dependency.

Thyroid hormone resistance (THR), also known as resistance to thyroid hormone (RTH), is an inherited condition characterized by reduced end-organ responsiveness to thyroid hormone, caused by mutations in the thyroid hormone receptor gene. Patients typically present with elevated thyroid hormone levels (T3 and T4) with normal, or slightly elevated thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels.1 In a majority of cases, the disease is caused by a mutation in the thyroid receptor beta (TR-beta) gene. Patients can present with signs and symptoms of hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism or can be asymptomatic. We present a case of a 16-year-old male who was referred for endocrinologic evaluation after abnormal findings in the thyroid function panel.

Authors: Prasad Chaya , Lee Sharon , Vang Jenny
Published: June 2020

Technology has revolutionized the practice of medicine. X-rays were the gold standard of imaging for many decades, but in recent years 3D imaging technology has been developed to represent the exact anatomic, pathologic disease processes. In medical practice, 3D images can be obtained by a variety of methodologies, including 3D laser scanning, computerized tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Since 3D imaging technologies have been incorporated into the health field, it has made tremendous advancements in all aspects of medicine, including orthopedic surgery, neurovascular surgery, forensic pathology, pathology, and dentistry. 3D imaging can be used not only for diagnostic services but also as treatment modalities. In addition, 3D imaging has also made an impact on medical and allied health education. From the 3D scanners used to produce an optimal reconstruction of surgical pathology specimens to the fluoroscopic 3D imaging used to aid orthopedic surgeons in surgery strategies, the purpose of this review is to explore the current literature to illustrate the impact of 3D imaging on medical practice and to also discuss future applications.

Rain classroom is a big data tool that effectively connects the teacher with students throughout the teaching process. This paper mainly applies rain classroom in blended teaching of college students, and evaluates the application effect. Firstly, the authors set up a model of rain classroom, covering all three phases of the teaching process: before-class (B), in-class (I) and after-class (A). Next, the BIA model was applied to the course Film and Television Appreciation, and the key issues in each phase were explained. To evaluate the effect of the BIA model, two questionnaire surveys were carried out among engineering students in Chongqing Three Gorges University. The results show that rain classroom can greatly improve the learning effect of the target course in various aspects: the teacher could arouse the students’ learning interest by sending red packets, make students more attentive through limited-time quiz, and reduce the absence through random roll call; the students were actively involved in group activities and confident in presenting their findings; however, many students most students switched to other apps in the class. The research results provide new insights to the application of big data technology in college education.

The dynamic free and forced axial vibrations subjected to moving exponential and harmonic axial forces of a single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) embedded in an elastic medium, are studied in this paper. Two different boundary conditions of SWCNT, including clamped-clamped and clamped-free, are taken into account. Eringen’s nonlocal elasticity theory is used to show the nonlocality for the model. The constitutive equations and their boundary conditions are derived by Hamilton’s principle. Employing the general solution, the derived equations are analytically solved to obtain two items. Firstly, the axial natural frequencies, secondly, the time-domain axial displacements at the middle of the carbon nanotube (CNT), and then the maximum axial displacements. The responses are validated with previous works, and the results demonstrates good agreement to them to verify the influence of the nonlocal parameter on the nondimensional natural frequencies for three various mode numbers. In the time-domain section, the effects of the nonlocal parameter, length, nondimensional stiffness of the elastic medium, and velocity of the moving load on the axial displacement are investigated. Also, the influences of the excitation frequency to natural frequency for the harmonic moving load, as well as the time constant for the exponential moving load on the axial displacement, are illustrated. Finally, the effect of the nonlocal parameter on the maximum axial deflection versus velocity parameter is schematically indicated.
Consumer Willingness to Pay for Organic Rice: With reference to Kurunegala District in Sri Lanka
Authors: Wijesinghe A. G. K , Nazreen A.H.P
Published: June 2020

Consumer willingness to pay is a dynamic phenomenon that depends heavily on consumers’ perceptions and attitudes. Organic rice purchasing behavior has been increased in recent years due to the perception that such products are safer, healthier and more environmentally friendly than conventionally produced alternatives. This study was focused to examine: consumers’ willingness to pay for organic rice, consumers’ perceptions on willingness to pay organic rice, and effect of socio demographic characteristics on willingness to pay for organic rice in Sri Lanka. A questionnaire survey was conducted with 100 consumers selected by multi-stage sampling technique in Kurunegala district which is highly vulnerable for agro chemical based diseases in Sri Lanka. Data analysis was done by using Contingent Valuation Method and Ordered Probit Regression analysis. The study found that 100 percent of consumers have selected organic rice at the same bid price and 96 percent of consumers agreed to pay an additional payment on organic rice. Monthly income, education level, and positive perceptions on organic rice increase willingness to pay for organic rice and price premiums. Consumers who perceive to have low residues of pesticide, higher nutrient and higher quality of organic rice than non-organic rice hold a probability of paying high premium. Consumers’ main motivation for buying organic rice is the health concern. Policy makers can identify the range of price increase of such organic rice without damaging the existing demand for organic rice and it is a timely need to introduce new marketing strategies to expand the market segment in organic rice in Sri Lanka.
