Authors: M. A. Sheikh
Published: May 2024

The constant usage of trace elements in the environment can elucidate harmful health effects on sensitive species i.e. Birds residing on higher trophic levels. The current study is to investigate and compare toxic trace elements. accumulation patterns. Cd, Cr, Pb, Cu, As, and Hg in Remiges (Primaries, Secondaries, Tertiaries), Contours (body), and Rectrices (tail) feathers of Bubulcus ibis (Cattle Egret) sampled from Lahore, Pakistan. Pb, Cd, Cu, and Cr were detected with variable concentration levels; Hg and As were not detected in the study. The general trend is Pb>Cd>Cu>Cr trend among the Remiges, Contours, and Rectrices of Bubulcus ibis. Primaries Flight feathers showed the highest concentrations of Pb, followed by Cd, the minimum (min-max) concentrations of Pb, Cd, Cu, and Cr at 0.49(0.48-0.55), 0.23(0.07-0.43), 0.13(0.12- 0.14), 0.07(0.03-0.21), were observed in Contour, Tertiaries, Tertiaries, and Primaries feathers respectively. The values of elements were found non-significant (all P>0.05) in different feather types of Cattle Egrets, reflecting their similar distribution. Principle Component Analysis (PCA) based on co-relation matrices also depicted the homogenous distribution of toxic trace elements among different feather types. Compared to previous studies from or near to study site, the current study depicts a relatively lower level of toxic trace metals, which are unanimously distributed among different feather types of cattle egret. However, their environmental presence has significant health consequences for Pakistan's already diminishing avifauna.
COMPARATIVE STUDY TO DETECT ANTIBIOTIC RESIDUES IN PROCESSED AND RAW MILK IN LAHORE
Authors: F. Haseeb
Published: May 2024

Antibiotics help animals and human beings live longer and healthier lives. But if antibiotics are used carelessly or inappropriately, or if the required withdrawal period is not understood, it's possible that treated animals' products will include unintended antibiotic residues. Many of these life-saving drugs are losing their efficacy as formerly vulnerable microorganisms (bacteria, viruses, fungi and microscopic-parasites) develop resistance. This phenomenon is called “antimicrobial resistance” or AMR. Antimicrobial usage (AMU) is a significant risk factor for antimicrobial resistance (AMR) development. The aim of this study was to investigate the presence of β-lactam and tetracyclines antibiotic residues in raw (cow and buffalo) milk and processed (UHT and pasteurized) milk in District Lahore. For that purpose, a total of 200 milk samples, containing 100 raw milk samples and 100 processed milk samples were collected from 5 zones of Lahore. The samples were processed using Milk Antibiotic Residues Rapid Test (Bioeasy) for β-lactams and tetracyclines in the milk kit method which is based upon colloidal gold immunochromatography technology also known as lateral flow dipstick immunoassay. Among total of 200 milk samples, the results showed as 6.5% of milk samples were positive for only beta-lactams, 1.5% milk samples were positive for only tetracyclines, 9.5% milk samples exhibited dual positivity for both beta-lactams and tetracyclines, 8.5% milk samples demonstrated weak positive results for both antibiotics, and 74% milk samples were negative for beta-lactams and tetracyclines both. The calculated p-value (0.0004998) indicates a significant difference between the observed samples in terms of antibiotic residue presence by Fisher's exact test. These residues were more in the raw milk as compared to the processed milk. Regulatory authorities should ensure proper withdrawal period before milking the animals and definite supervisions are necessary on application of these drugs as this is the serious healthcare concern in Lahore.

Authors: S. I. Khan  , S. Siddiqui  , M. Ghous
Published: May 2024

Peatlands are recognized for their ecological significance and vital role in global carbon sequestration and are facing threats worldwide. This research links plantation forestry to water color due to dissolved organic carbon in the waters of the peatlands of Deosai National Park, District Skardu, Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan, in the context of water quality and its sustainable conservation. The research question of the study is, do plantation forests enhance dissolved organic carbon concentration? Monitoring of the amounts of dissolved organic carbon in seepage water taken from peatlands and forests in Gilgit-Baltistan’s Deosai National Park provides an answer to this question. The results depict a lower concentration level of dissolved organic carbon in forest samples as compared to peatland samples from Deosai National Park waters. Because the litter in mature forest crops is more consolidated, less dissolved organic carbon leaches. Further studies that focus on a more detailed sampling regime for data collection are required.
In-silico characterization of meristem defective (MDF) protein associated with regulation of root meristems in Arabidopsis thaliana
Authors: Muccee Fatima
Published: May 2024

Meristem defective protein (MDF) plays its role in proper development of meristem patterns in Arabidopsis through regulation of auxins homeostasis. It also enables plants to survive in stress. Present study was designed to characterize MDF protein in A. thaliana to get an insight into its molecular aspects. Sequence of protein was retrieved from uniprot database and subjected to CELLO, SOPMA, SWISSMODEL, MEME server and SRING tools. The protein was also docked with four proteins i. e. SR4, RSZ33, PLT1, 2 and 3. The protein was found to localize in nucleus with secondary structure comprising of alpha helix (47.20%), extended strand (6.34%), beta turn (5.37%) and random coil (41.10%). MDF was analyzed as a conserved protein with monomeric structure. Proteins observed as interacting partners of MDF included STA1, T13D8.9, LSM5, LSM2, LSM4 and LSM8. Docking analysis revealed highest and lowest affinities of MDF binding with RS4, RZS33, PLT1, PLT2 and PLT3 in case of FGRTLTPKEAFRLLSHKFHG and IQGQTTHTFEDLNSSAKVSSDYFSQ conserved motifs, respectively. Features of MDF protein explored in this investigation can be exploited for engineering and production of plants with efficient root meristems development.

ABSTRACT Twenty species of coccinellid predators were observed in Sub-Himalayan tea plantation of North Bengal during 2004 to 2006. Of these, Micraspis discolor (F) was dominant (42.5%) in the conventionally managed tea plantations. The abundance of M. discolor populations was positively correlated with the abundance of red spider mites (Oligonychus coffeae Neitner, Acarina: Tetranychidae) (R2 =0.705) and tea aphid (Toxoptera aurantii Boyer de Fons, Homoptera: Aphidae) (R2 = 0.893). Both the pests and their predator (M. discolor) populations showed similar patterns of abundance that reached peaks during January to March. In choice test, the mixed population the grub and adult of M. discolor showed a clear choice for the tea aphid. The life cycle studies also suggested that the tea aphid was the preferred prey for M. discolors, but the predator can survive on red spider mite also. The studies on feeding potential indicated that the grubs of M. discolor consumed on an average 280.30 red spider mites and 188.66 tea aphids during its larval period of development, which were 24.10 + 0.77 and 21.70 + 0.72 days, respectively. The regression between the age of grub and rate of consumption showed that the consumption by the predator at larval stage is highly correlated to its age. An adult predator consumed on an average of 20.32 + 11.79 red spider mites per day and 35.9 + 4.95 tea aphids per day. In both case, male individual consumed significantly less number of aphids as compared to the female.

The Changing Role of the Faculty of Military Leadership in Czech Military Education (2004–2018)
Authors: Binar Aleš
Published: May 2024

Educational mission of the Faculty of Military Leadership (until 2014 as Faculty of Economics and Management) of the University of Defence (Brno, Czech Republic) underwent since its origin in 2004 to 2018 number of changes. By analysing the structure of study programmes and the number of employees and students, the goal of this article is to identify the main periods in the development of the faculty as well as its role in the educational system. The results are as follows.The first period was a reaction to a process of professionalization of army, i.e., the replacement the conscript army by professionals that led into decrease of number of military students and parallel orientation towards civilian study programmes in national security. The second stage was influenced by the financial crisis of 2007–2008; that is why a gradual reduction of military study took place as well as serious considerations about the dissolution of the faculty and university, respectively. The third, final, period began in 2013–2014. Its main element was the change of characteristics of study programmes and their connection to the “militarization” of the faculty; reorganization of the structure of the faculty in 2014; the gradual increase of the number of military students at the expense of civilian students; and, finally, the cancelation of civilian study programmes. Year 2018, when personal changes in management of faculty took place together with a consideration about principles of a new study programme, could be regarded as the beginning of a qualitative new period in history of Faculty of Military Leadership that lasts until present day – and as such is out of focus of this study.

To explore collegiate student-athletes? preferences of coaching leadership behaviours in strength and conditioning (SC) coaching and evaluate differences between the preferences of coaching leadership behaviours based on task dependence. Method a total of 145 National Collegiate Athletic Association student-athletes (independent sports athletes = 48, interdependent sports athletes = 97), aged 18-25 years, with a mean = 3 (SD = ±1) SC sessions per week, participated. Participants completed an electronic questionnaire involving the athletes? preference version of the Revised Leadership Scale for SC. Results summary statistics revealed that the most favoured behaviour was 'training and instruction', median = 4.5 (IQR = 1.0), while the least favoured was ?autocratic?, median = 2.0 (IQR = 0.5). Independent sports athletes preferred training and instruction more (median = 5.0, IQR = 0.6) than interdependent sports athletes (median = 4.5, IQR = 1.0). Interdependent sports athletes preferred social support more (median = 3.5, IQR = 1.0) than independent sports athletes (median = 3.0, IQR = 0.6). The observation of a marginal statistically significant difference for social support suggests task-dependence-based variations (p = 0.018). However, small effect sizes indicate that differences are not practically significant. Conclusion and recommendation: this study presents insights into the preferences of coaching leadership behaviours among student-athletes in SC coaching. It highlights key behaviours such as training and instruction, positive feedback, situational considerations, and social support. These findings inform coaching practice and provide a foundation for further research into coaching leadership behaviours in SC coaching.

The current study concentrates on heavy mineral separation using the bromoform technique. The main structural element is the distribution of several heavy minerals in coastal areas along a stretch of India's southeast coast in Tamil Nadu. The observed variations in the distribution of heavy minerals in the area are connected to differences in sediment supply, sorting, and oceanographic processes, all of which cause the sediments to be sorted in a specific way. The main factors affecting how heavy minerals are distributed in the depositional basin are mineral stability, density, particle size, wave velocity, and dynamics of beach morphologies. The heavy mineral assemblage of the study region is determined by the distribution of various types of minerals, and each mineral was identified using microscope techniques in the main study area. The assemblage is dominated by a select few minerals, including garnet (colourless), garnet (pink), zircon, rutile, chlorite, etc. Numerous igneous rocks, high-grade metamorphic rocks, Precambrian gneissic, granitic, and basic rocks were present in the heterogeneous provenance that gave rise to the ubiquitous zircon, monazite, and sillimanite that can be found in both seashore and inland red teri sands. This provenance almost probably originated from a coastal region

THE BENEFITS AND APPLICATIONS OF LIQUID CRYSTAL DOPED NANOPARTICLE SYSTEM
Authors: Rastogi Ayushi , Singh Abhilasha
Published: May 2024

Research on liquid crystals and its applications has been frequently paying attention on optical and display devices as well as its innovative and assorted relevance in the nanoscience and nanotechnology fields. Alteration in the physical assets of liquid crystals have been mainly made to a major extent by the addition of dopant/foreign entity or functional nanoparticles of varying shape and size like arbitrary spherical wires and discs, rods. Suspension of nanomaterials in liquid crystals with a certain surface anchoring energy induces an orientation deformation in the surrounding environment of liquid crystals, generating topological defects in nanoparticles vicinity. The elastic deformation force on nearby nanomaterials at a distance of up to a few micrometers results in the defect sites surrounding nanoparticles. Thus, the patterning and orientation of liquid crystal molecules is achieved through self-organization of liquid crystal molecules. In the vicinity of isotropic host solvents, lyotropic liquid crystalline phases have been observed to emerge by employing nanoparticles like graphene oxide, nanotubes and rods. These consequences lead to opulence of new applications, some of which will be discussed in this chapter
THE NOISE REDUCTION AND COMPRESSION OF VERY LOW FREQUENCY (VLF) TRANSIENTS USING WAVELET BASED TECHNIQUES
Authors: Sondhiya Dr. D. K.
Published: May 2024

Noises in the signal were generated due to various natural and manmade causes like excess use of heavy machines, spacecraft and lighting and sometimes due to volcanic eruption and earthquakes. These noises degrade the quality of observed signals and responsible for the loss of information. To retrieve the information from these noisy signals various methods based on Linear Band Pass Filter (BPF) were used, but efficiency of BPF was compromised when dealing with Non-Gaussian like natural Very Low Frequency (VLF) signals. Here, we have used wavelet thresholding based denoising method for denoising of the VLF signal. It was found that wavelet the thresholding method denoise the signal without affecting it original shape

Published: May 2024

This chapter describes how the UV-C disinfection robotic system was created to fight COVID-19. In order to stop diseases from spreading in hospitals, environmental surface cleaning is a vital technique. However, microorganisms from contaminated surfaces could still survive manual washing and disinfection. Robotic autonomous disinfection systems, or UV-C irradiation, are being promoted more and more as a supplement to conventional decontamination techniques that also save time and effort. Although UV-C-based disinfection as a general concept has been shown, little is known about how UV-C disinfection supplied by robots actually works. We looked at the usability and efficacy of a UV-C disinfection robot as an addition to regular environmental cleaning and disinfection in order to examine its effects in a clinical context
