 Abstract

A study was undertaken to evaluate the efficacy of Bauhinia accuminata (BA) stem bark extract against sodium arsenite (NaAsO2) induced toxicity in adult albino rats. Forty eight adult albino rats having body weight 150-200 gm of either sex were randomly divided into four groups, viz., A0, A1, A2 and A3 each contains twelve rats.Sodium arsenite was administered at 4mg/kg daily in drinking water for 90 days to groups A1, A2 and A3. Groups A2 and A3 were orally treated with BA stem bark extract at 300 mg/kg (1/10th of LD50) and at 150mg/kg (1/20th of LD50) daily respectively from day 91 to 120 day, while only water was given to group A0 (control). Tissue samples, hair, faeces were collected at different days for analysis of total arsenic concentration. Speciation was performed on faeces, liver and hair. The results expresses that the stem bark extract of Bauhinia acuminata (BA) may be effective against induced arsenicosis in rats.

 Abstract

This study was carried out in the Churu region of Rajasthan. The study is related to insect diversity and their habitats in the Churu region. This research paper provides important information about the insect species of the Churu region and their habitat. This study proves that insect diversity is found in abundance in the Churu region. Many insect species are found in different habitats like grassland areas, urban areas, around water bodies, agricultural areas, and forests. The author has reported various orders of Insecta class like Lepidoptera, Coleoptera, Diptera, Hemiptera, Hymenoptera, Orthoptera, Thysanura, Odonata etc. in this study area.

 Abstract

According to research people have usually loved to have a seat for themselves assigned beforehand, it maybe because people might feel overwhelmed about not having a seat during an important conference though it is often neglected it is true that a person does go through a bit of stress when in between a conference or be it a ballet, therefore taking this as a problem statement this thesis is focused on the study of seating occupancy. With Convolution neural network being a beneficent recognizer and processor of the image, this thesis of Seating Occupancy was made possible. Seat occupancy monitoring involves techniques to sense the presence of a human occupant and the algorithm to relay the information and display the seat is occupied or unoccupied. We used COCO dataset along with YOLOv3 which has already been trained with weights for the thesis. COCO dataset is having more 380k images of different objects of world. From this it is easy to find a perfect dataset for persons and chair. The dataset has image with names of object labeled in Coco.names file. Also YOLO makes the idea of detecting object according to need easy in terms of speed and accuracy. As our goal is to detect unoccupied chair or seats in a frame, we need to find the chairs in the image which is not overlapped by any person or other object, For that it is very important to have perfect camera angle with best image quality so noise in image should not disturb the goal.

 Abstract

In the last few years, a huge numbers of targeted drug delivery carriers are developing such as niosomes, proniosomes, liposomes, ethosomes, electrosomes and transferosomes, etc. As compared to other nano carriers, niosomes and proniosomes are much good carriers to increase bioavailability and therapeutic efficiency by reducing its adverse effects. Niosomes or Non- ionic surfactant vesicles are microscopic lamellar structures formed on admixture of non-ionic surfactant of the alkyl or dialkylpolyglycerol ether class and cholesterol with subsequent hydration in aqueous media and its similar to liposomes that can be used as carriers for lipophilic and amphiphilic drugs. Niosomes have been widely evaluated for controlled release and targeted delivery for treatment of viral infections, cancer and other microbial disease. This article reviews advantages, disadvantages, comparison with liposomes, its types, mechanisms involved within niosomes and proniosomes to enhance transdermal drug delivery, composition and its different preparation techniques, factors affecting, its physical as well as chemical characterizations and niosomal applications.

 Abstract

Due to their broad application possibilities in the renewable energy, biopharmaceutical, and nutraceutical industries, microalgae have recently gained significant interest on a global scale. Biofuels, bioactive pharmaceuticals, and food additives can all be produced from microalgae in an environmentally friendly, economically feasible manner. Several microalgae species have been looked into for their potential to become high-value products with exceptional pharmacological and biological properties. They are an ideal biofuel alternative to liquid fossil fuels in terms of price, renewability, and environmental issues. A large amount of atmospheric CO2 can be converted by microalgae into beneficial byproducts including carbohydrates, lipids, and other bioactive compounds. Even though microalgae are viable sources of bioenergy and bioactive value chemicals, there are still several obstacles to be addressed on an industrial scale. This review covered a variety of bioactive substances derived from microalgae that are mostly used in agriculture, animal feed, medicine, pigments, human food, and cosmetics industries.

 Abstract

This paper presents a stand-alone Hybrid PV and Wind power energy system for applications to improve power quality in isolated area. The wind and PV energy are suitable for hybrid system because they are environmental friendly and widely available in India. The wind and PV system are connected to the common point of battery through DC/DC Boost converter or are connected electrically through power converters to extract maximum energy using MPPT technique. An inverter has been designed using Cascaded H-Bridge MLI to control the grid parameter as well as PV and Wind hybrid system parameter simultaneously for improving power quality of the system. The modeling and simulation of hybrid system are done using MATLAB/SIMULINK. The performance of the hybrid system is evaluated under different wind speeds and different irradiation levels Simulation results show that the proposed hybrid system has the potential to meet the electricity demand of an isolated area.
