Shelf life estimation of preconditioned brown or unpolished rice (Oryza sativa) and its effect in microwave puffing
Authors: Swarnakar Ajay Kumar
Published: November 2019

Microwave puffing of prepacked preconditioned brown rice can provides a hygienic, fresh and nutritious puffed rice as compared to conventional puffed rice. Pre-puffing conditioning (salt infusion) makes brown rice more hygroscopic therefore long storage of preconditioned brown rice reduces the puffing quality. This study was conducted to estimate the shelf life of prepacked conditioned brown rice in wrapped paper envelope with low density polythene for its microwave puffing. Preconditioning of brown rice was carried out at optimized conditions i.e., parboiling pressure (303 kPa) and time (14 min), preconditioning temperature (76.7 °C), salt content (3.5% (w/w), and pre-puffing moisture content (11.6 % (wb)). These packets were stored at 38±2 °C temperature and 90% relative humidity. Moisture sorption characteristics can be well described by Henderson model. Shelf life of preconditioned brown rice was estimated 36 days by its puffing quality characteristic and found that moisture content of preconditioned brown rice reaches 15.27% (wb).

Published: November 2019

Twenty-five cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L) genotypes were evaluated across six contrasting environments for phenotypic yield stability. Combined analysis of variance revealed significant differences among the genotypes and the main effects. A1B×D, BC×M, L1B×M, A1B×M, and BA×I were the best performing and stable genotypes. The non-parametric analysis showed that genotype IT93K-503-1 had the highest yield and BC×D had the lowest yield. Shukla stability analysis revealed Beledi A and Dan lla as the most stable across test environments and genotypes A1B×D, BC×M and BA×I were good performers. The coefficient of variability graphical approach showed that genotypes BC×I, A1B×M, A1B×D, Dan lla, TA×M, Mouride, L1B×I, BC×M and L1B×D were high yielding. This implies they would do well across the testing sites. However, genotype IT93K-503-1 should be promoted for cultivation in drought-prone environments.

Published: November 2019

Research study on effect of foliar application of biostimulants on yield and quality of annual moringa for leaf production was conducted at Horticultural College and Research Institute, Periyakulam between October 2014 to September 2016. Annual moringa Var PKM -1 seeds were sown @ 40 cm x 20 cm spacing. Foliar application of different concentrations of humic acid, Vermiwash and sea weed extract were given as per the treatment schedule. Harvesting of moringa leaves was done starting from 60 days after sowing leaving 45 cm stem from the ground level at every 45 days interval. Fresh and dry leaf yield per plot was recorded in each harvest and the data were analyzed statistically. Cost benefit ratio for each treatment was calculated. Among the different treatment combinations, application of humic acid 0.2% + vermiwash 4% + sea weed extract 4% @ 10 days after each harvest recorded the highest dry leaf yield of 18.24 t/ha followed by the application of humic acid 2 ml/lit + vermiwash 4% + sea weed extract 4% @ 10 and 25 days after each harvest along with recommended dose of fertilizer. The highest benefit cost ratio of 1:2.45 was observed in the treatment of foliar application of humic acid 2 ml/lit + vermiwash 4% + sea weed extract 4% @ 10 days after each harvest along with recommended dose of fertilizers.

Authors: Krishnan M.R. Reshma , Patel M. S. , Gami R. A.
Published: November 2019

The present investigation was carried out with the objective to ascertain the magnitude of heterosis of 35 hybrids resulted from Line x Tester mating design of seven CMS lines and five restorer tester parents along with the standard check (GHB 558). The highly significant analysis of variance for parents and hybrids among all traits revealed that, the existence of an appreciable amount of genetic variability in the experimental material. In practical plant breeding, the heterosis measured over standard check is more realistic and is of more practical importance. In the present study, heterosis has been estimated over the better parent and popular check hybrid. The aim of present study was to find out the best combination of parents giving a high degree of heterobeltosis and standard heterosis and its exploitation to get better transgressive segregants and characterization of parents for their prospects for further use in the breeding programme of pearl millet. The mean sum of due to parents vs. hybrids for most of the traits is significant for heterosis. The degree of heterosis varied from the cross to cross for all the 10 characters. Considerable high heterosis in certain crosses and low in others revealed that the nature of gene action varied with the genetic makeup of the parents. The hybrids viz., ICMA 07777 x 18488 R, ICMA 06777 x 18805 R and ICMA 96222 x 18488 R showed high per se performance with highly significant positive heterobeltiosis, standard heterosis for grain yield per plant.

Authors: Oraon Satyajit , Mondal Subrata
Published: November 2019

The present study reveals the allelopathic effect of aqueous leaf extracts of Putranjiva roxburghii Wall. on seed germination and early growth stages of an economically important plant chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.). Aqueous leaf extracts at 0, 5, 10, 15, 25, 35, 50, 75 and 100% concentrations were applied to determine their effect on seed germination and early growth stages under laboratory conditions. Laboratory-based experiments with three replicates were used to arrange treatments accordingly. After 5 days of incubation the rate of seed germination, radicle length and hypocotyls length etc. of chickpea seeds were observed after treatment with aqueous leaf extracts. Highest inhibitory effect was noticed in 100% of aqueous leaf extract. Results indicated that the inhibitory effect was proportional to the concentration of the extracts. The water soluble leaf extracts contain allelochemicals, which inhibit the seed germination and reduced the early growth of chickpea.

Field experiments were conducted for two consecutive years during kharif and rabi season of 2015-16 and 2016-17 at Research area, Department of Agronomy, CCSHAU, Hisar to evaluate the direct and residual effect of planting methods and phosphorus levels on productivity, agro-meteorological indices, thermal and energy efficiencies in mungbean– wheat cropping system. The experiment was laid out in split plot design during kharif and in split -split plot design during Rabi with five replications at same site during both the years. Main plot treatments consisted of planting methods viz. furrow irrigated raised bed (FIRB) and conventional where as sub plot consisted of three levels of phosphorus, viz., 30, 40 and 50 kg P2O5 /ha applied to mungbean in kharif and sub -sub treatments applied to wheat in rabi were 40, 50 and 60 kg P2O5 /ha. Sowing of mungbean and wheat crops on beds i.e. furrow irrigated raised bed was superior over conventional sowing in respect of productivity. In mungbean, application of 50 kg P2O5/ha to mungbean significantly increased grain yield over 30 and 40 kg P2O5/ha, respectively but it did not differ significantly with 40 kg P2O5/ha. The residual effect of phosphorous applied to mungbean was found to be non significant on yield attributes and yield of wheat. However, direct application of phosphorous to wheat had significant effect on yield attributes and yield. The agro meteorological indices values were similar under FIRB and conventional method however, thermal and energy efficiencies were higher under FIRB planting as compared to conventional and increased with increasing levels of phosphorous.

Published: November 2019

Nigeria poultry industry is fast growing to meet the demand of the increasing population with overdependence on antibiotics for production leading to consumer safety and public health concerns. The antibiotic use in poultry farms and presence of gentamicin residues in chicken eggs from city markets of Southwest Nigeria were investigated. A semi-structured questionnaire was administered to 45 poultry farmers to determine the patterns of antibiotic use, knowledge of withdrawal periods and food safety implications. Furthermore, 270 egg samples from six retail markets in Oyo and Lagos states were analyzed with ELISA for gentamicin residues. Residue concentrations were compared with Student’s t test and ANOVA (p < 0.05). About 90% of the respondents reported they frequently administered antibiotics, 85% engaged in non-prescribed medication, and about 80% did not observe a withdrawal period before selling the eggs from treated chickens. In addition, 60% and 80% of pooled eggs from Oyo and Lagos states, respectively, contained gentamicin residues with means of 1461 ± 74 and 1350 ± 92 µg/kg, respectively. The mean residues obtained from the two states were higher than the maximum recommended residue limits. High levels of gentamicin residues, from unbridled use of antibiotics in poultry production, detected in retail eggs from markets rendered the eggs unsafe for human consumption. Therefore, regulatory control and veterinary supervision of antibiotic use are advocated to ensure Nigerian consumer protection.
Uma leitura de Paulo Freire

Published: November 2019

Esse ensaio tem por objetivos: recolher alguns traços a partir dos quais gostaríamos de pensar um construtivismo em Paulo Freire, e; pensar a dinâmica de seu método a partir da noção de dramatização. Trata-se de uma leitura que percorre a obra do autor de maneira transversal, a partir de questões e problemas presentes nessa obra, as quais são importantes para o desenvolvimento de uma educação pensada como uma prática da liberdade e voltada para a construção de uma sociedade democrática. Partirmos da noção de inacabamento do ser humano, considerado por Paulo Freire como um dos núcleos fundamentais onde se sustenta o processo de educação; procuramos pensar alguns aspectos da relação entre vida (existência), conhecimento e pensamento em sua obra; utilizamos a noção de dramatização para pensar a dinâmica de seu método, assim como, a inter-relação entre a dimensão estética, política e cognitiva das práticas educacionais.
O vazio e o movimento
Authors: Gil Ana Godinho
Published: November 2019

Numa dobra entre a filosofia e as artes em geral surge um espaço de experimentação singular e dele surge uma multiplicidade de problemáticas. Respira-se e vive-se intensamente nele. O pensamento e as sensações podem constituir linhas de fuga que atravessam esse espaço – vazio – e nos permitem sobrevoar ou mergulhar em tudo o que escapa. Desencadeiam-se movimentos, procurando operações reais que vão muito para lá do  dizível e do pensável, e que nos interessam estudar. O vazio será então “o lugar funcional”, meio de transporte e de captura das forças. Dele e do ritmo ligados entre si sai o sopro, é o sopro que exige o vazio, é o sopro que exige um outro corpo, porque é ele que une todas as coisas. O sopro é então o lugar comum, potência imperceptível, entre o indivíduo e o universo.

The writing of this article aims to discuss the need for sharia compliant milk banks for premature babies. This study uses a qualitative approach using content analysis methods that focus on the textbooks, books, journals, articles and reports. The results of the discussion found that mother's milk contained many of the benefits needed by premature babies. When compared with formula milk, the nutritional content of breast milk is much better. There are several reasons why breastfeeding is now the main requirement in Malaysia, one of them is for premature babies.With this, the government seeks to meet ASI's needs by establishing a shariah compliant milk bank for mothers with breastfeeding problems. The results of the discussion found that Islam not only acknowledged the efficacy of ASI, it also emphasized the problem of maternal and adolescent mahram relationships. Therefore, the established milk bank must be in accordance with the guidelines set by the jurisprudence and the schools of Imam Shafi'i. In addition to needs, milk banks also provide benefits for Muslims by seeing an increase in premature baby birth statistics in Malaysia. It is in this condition of the emergency phase that a compliant sharia milk bank needs to be established. The milk bank that will be established can avoid the occurrence of problems overlapping the mahram according to the principle of Maqasid al-Shari'ah in the maintenance of implantable mahram purity.

Receptors estrogen can also stimulated by other, namely by fitoestrogen. Fitoestrogen are the group of non steroid plants that have composition resembling the natural estrogen in the body. One of it is isoflavon, that can be binding with receptor estrogen, which affinity for RE-β is greater than RE-α and can make potential effect because receptors estrogen will blocked by isoflavon and cannot be occupied by estrogen.This compound can harm the endocrine system of the body because of the possible bad effects for reproductive function. Isoflavonoid is mostly found in soy. Soybean can be processed to soybean milk. The purpose of this study is demonstrate that administration of soy milk can affect the  expression of RE-β uterus at the early reproductive period of female Rattus norvegicus. The method used is an experimental design post test control group design. The sample in this study is 24 Rattus norvegicus females. Then divided into four groups: one control group and three treatment groups were given soy milk each dose of 2.5 mg/kg/weight; 5mg/kg/weight; 10mg/kg/weight. The  expression of RE-β uterus were measured by immunohistochemistry. Based on the analysis using ANOVA, was obtained p-value of 0.000, smaller than α = 0:05 (p <0.05). There is a significant influence on the administration of soy milk increase expression of RE-β and by LSD test obtained the results of differences from application of soy milk with different doses.

Small and Medium Industries (IKM) H.Musauwimin is a manufacturing industry in the field of tofu production. In the production process there are still frequent product defects, including coarse tofu, tofu surface torn, soft texture, and faded color. For this reason, we need a way to minimize the possibility of product defects. The objectives of this study are (1) Identifying disability factors using the Statistical Quality Control (SQC) method, (2) Improving employee performance performance using the Human Reliability Assessment (HRA) method, (3) Minimizing product defects in the production process so as to increase productivity. The results of this study are (1) of the four types of rejects for the biggest 3 months in tearing surface type with a percentage of 46% of all rejects (2) By testing the adequacy of the data using the SQC method in the production process for 3 months then sample we tested a total of 284. From the results of the data adequacy test data obtained a value of 7,289, so the number of samples is larger than the sample that should be. (3) From the results of measuring employee performance using the HRA method. The biggest HEP value is the type of Possible Error. The operator only estimates and there is no standard in mixing vinegar acid with the filtrate. With an HEP value of 0.48. So this factor is the most dominant cause of disability and must be corrected immediately.

Authors: Kim Sun Young , Ahn Yong Sun , Lee Yeo Jin , Kim Hyun Seung
Published: November 2019

Background: We evaluated the toxicity of 5% (w/v) povidone-iodine (PI) applied to the ocular surface of rabbits.
Methods: Twenty-three white rabbits were divided into four groups; these were a control group and three study groups in which the ocular surface was exposed to PI for different times. In control group, one drop of phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) was applied once for 10 minutes. In study groups, one drop of 5% (w/v) PI was topically applied once for 1 minute, 3 minutes, and 10 minutes, and then the animals were observed for 7 days. The Schirmer test, Rose Bengal staining, corneal fluorescein staining and conjunctival impression cytology were performed on day 0, 3, and 7. After 7 days, the rabbits were sacrificed and conjunctiva and cornea were collected and evaluated by light and electron microscope. Immunofluorescence staining was also performed to detect mucin 5 subtype AC (MUC5AC).
Results: The decrease in goblet cell density, reductions in MUC5AC level and histopathological and ultrastructural changes of conjunctiva and cornea were more prominent in the 5% (w/v) PI groups than the control group (p < 0.05). Moreover, these changes were more prominent when PI was applied for 3 and 10 minutes rather than 1 minute (both p values < 0.05).
Conclusions: 5% (w/v) povidone-iodine caused damages to the ocular surface in a time-dependent manner. Therefore, we should be aware of that excessive PI exposure during ophthalmic procedures could be a pathogenic factor of dry eye syndrome after surgery.
The effects of occupational pollutants on the reproductive health of female informal street traders in Warwick Junction, Durban, South Africa – a cross-sectional study
Authors: Hariparsad Sujatha , Naidoo Rajen
Published: November 2019

Background: Informal street traders are exposed on a daily basis to traffic emissions and biomass fuel smoke containing a variety of pollutants. These exposures are likely to place the female traders at increased risk for adverse reproductive outcomes. Aim The aim of this study was to compare the reproductive outcomes among street traders exposed to pollutants from their work-related activities and traders without such exposure. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 305 female traders selected from exposed and non-exposed areas within the Warwick Junction trading hub, located in Durban, South Africa. Validated reproductive questionnaires and clinical assessments were conducted on all participants. Adverse reproductive outcomes such as low birth weight, spontaneous abortions and infertility were assessed Results: The mean age of the traders was 43.6 years (SD:12.1), mostly single (63%) and worked in trading hub for an average of 14 years. There were 876 pregnancies reported in the total sample. Traders pregnant while working in in this location accounted for 120 pregnancies There was an increased risk of exposed traders having a low birth weight infant as compared to non-exposed traders (OR=3.7; CI: 1.8, 7.6). Exposed traders were also almost 3 times more likely to be infertile as compared to non-exposed traders (OR=2.6; CI: 1.6, 4.3). Conclusions: Working as a street trader may have a causal association with developing adverse reproductive outcomes in females. Recommendations to mitigate adverse exposures have been suggested which include short term safety interventions and better cooking practices and future long term policy interventions.

Background: Fusarium head blight (FHB), primarily caused by Fusarium graminearum, is a major threat to wheat production and food security worldwide. Breeding stably and durably resistant cultivars is the most effective approach for managing and controlling the disease. The success of FHB resistance breeding relies on identification of an effective resistant germplasm. We performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) using the high-density wheat 90K single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) assays to better understand the genetic basis of FHB resistance in natural population and identify associated molecular markers.
Results: The resistance to FHB fungal spread along the rachis (Type II resistance) was evaluated on 171 wheat cultivars in the 2016-2017 (abbr. as 2017) and 2017-2018 (abbr. as 2018) growing seasons. Using Illumina Infinum iSelect 90K SNP genotyping data, a genome-wide association study (GWAS) identified 26 loci (88 marker-trait associations), which explained 6.65-14.18% of the phenotypic variances. The associated loci distributed across all chromosomes except 2D, 6A, 6D and 7D, with those on chromosomes 1B, 4A, 5D and 7A being detected in both years. New loci for Type II resistance were found on syntenic genomic regions of chromsome 4AL (QFhb-4AL, 621.85-622.24 Mb) and chromosome 5DL (QFhb-5DL, 546.09-547.27 Mb) which showed high collinearity in gene content and order. SNP markers wsnp_JD_c4438_5568170 and wsnp_CAP11_c209_198467 of 5D, reported previously linked to a soil-borne wheat mosaic virus (SBWMV) resistance gene, were also associated with FHB resistance in this study.
Conclusion: The syntenic FHB resistant loci and associated SNP markers identified in this study are valuable for FHB resistance breeding via marker-assisted selection.

Published: November 2019

Background: Strategic drug therapy for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients with prolonged remission is not well defined. According to recent guidelines, tapering biological Disease-Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drugs (bDMARDs) may be considered. We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of long-term maintenance of tocilizumab (TCZ) treatment after the progressive tapering of infusions. Methods: We conducted an exploratory, prospective, single-center, open-label study, on RA patients with sustained remission of at least 3 months and treated with TCZ infusions every 4 weeks. The initial re-treatment interval was extended to 6 weeks for the first 3 months. Thereafter, the spacing between infusions was determined by the clinician. Successful long-term maintenance following the tapering of TCZ infusions was defined by patients still treated after two years by TCZ with a minimum dosing interval of 5 weeks.Results: Thirteen patients were enrolled in the study. Eight out of thirteen were still treated by TCZ after two years. Successful long-term maintenance was possible in six patients, with four patients maintaining a re-treatment interval of 8-weeks or more. We observed 5 patients with TCZ withdrawal: one showing adverse drug reaction (neutropenia) and four with secondary failure. Patients achieving successful long-term maintenance with TCZ were significantly younger than those with secondary failure (p<0.05). In addition, RA patients with positive rheumatoid factor and anti-citrullinated peptide antibodies, experienced a significantly greater number of flares during our 2-year follow-up (p<0.01).Conclusions: A progressive tapering of TCZ infusions may be possible for many patients. However, larger studies, including more patients, are needed to confirm this therapeutic option.

Published: November 2019

Background: Conventional endoscopic treatments can’t control bleeding in as many as 20% of patients with non-variceal gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding. Recent studies have shown that over-the-scope-clip (OTSC) system allowed for effective hemostasis for refractory GI bleeding lesions. So we aimed to conduct a systematic review to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the OTSC system for management of acute non-variceal upper GI bleeding.
Method: A comprehensive literature search was conducted on PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library covering the period from January 2007 to May 2019. The literature was selected independently by two reviewers according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The statistical analysis was carried out using Comprehensive Meta-Analysis software version 3.0.
Results: A total of 16 studies including 769 patients with 778 GI bleeding lesions were identified. Pooled technical success was achieved in 761 lesions [95.7%; 95% confidence interval (CI), 93.5%-97.2%], and the pooled clinical success was achieved in 666 lesions (84.2%; 95% CI, 77.4%-89.2%). The incidence of re-bleeding was reported in 81 patients and the post-procedure mortality was 10.9% (n = 84). Only 2 (0.3%) patients occurred complications after OTSC system procedure.
Conclusions: Our study demonstrated that the OTSC system was a technically feasible modality and highly efficacious in achieving hemostasis in acute non-variceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding.
