 Abstract

In the present study phytochemical profile, antibacterial activity and FTIR of various extracts were evaluated. Qualitative phytochemical analysis of the extracts showed the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids and phenols in the aqueous extract of wheat and presence of alkaloids, tannins and phenols in the aqueous extract of ragi. Antibacterial properties were studied using kirby Bauer disc diffusion technique and the extracts showed antibacterial activity on Enterococcus feacalis and Staphylococcus aureus. FTIR analysis shows some differences in functional groups of various extracts of wheat and ragi. Finally, the presence of phytochemicals, antibacterial activity and functional groups concludes that these extracts have a broad spectrum of antibacterial potential and phytochemical properties which makes it as a candidate for bio prospecting of antibiotic drugs.

 Abstract

Climate change, community health, education and development and business sustainability are some of the most important issues now. In a world of changing expectations, companies must account for the way they impact the communities and environments where they operate. Businesses can sustain their growth only if society is generally satisfied with their overall contribution to social well-being. This raises the importance of accuracy and transparency in accounting for and reporting these activities. Businesses can't afford to function and survive in the long run unless they behave in a legitimate and socially responsible manner. Governments of various countries began to scrutinize the activities of companies under the different dimensions of sustainable development. For this Sustainable Reporting was introduced as a tool to measure the performance. Sustainability Reporting (SR) or Non- Financial Reporting (NFR) is the process of communicating the social and environmental effects of organizations to particular interest groups within society and at large. With this background this paper highlights the sustainability framework along with the advantages and challenges faced by Indian corporate.

 Abstract

This paper present an analytical program to study the behavior of damaged steel I beam strengthened using two different retrofitting plates and to find which one give economical retrofitting. The materials adopted are Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) and SAFSTRIP Plates. Multiple stages of crack propagation in a steel beam are simulated by various notch lengths, including 5 mm, 15 mm, 25 mm, 35 mm and 50 mm. Each cracked beams were retrofitted using plates of varying length 1500 mm, 1000 mm, 500 mm and 250 mm. All beams were simply supported and loaded in four point bending. The decrease of CFRP plate length, only increased the strength of the beam until reach 25.25% length of beam span. But SAFTRIP of 12.5 % length of span carry load similar to that of the other lengths. Test results showed that, three layer SAFSTRIP plates as retrofitting material gives the maximum strength to the damaged beam economically.

 Abstract

Nickel Oxide Nanoparticles (NiO) were synthesized through solvothermal process. The properties of as prepared NiO nanoparticles were confirmed by analytical techniques such as XRD, FTIR and SEM studies. From XRD analysis, it is clear that the observed peaks revealed that the particle corresponds to face centred cubic structure. The various functional groups in NiO nanoparticles were ascertained by FTIR analysis. Morphological studies were estimated using SEM analysis.

 Abstract

Cocrystal is a concept in which the drug and coformer lives in same structure. It is formulation which is gaining the more attention from researchers of pharmaceutical and chemical sciences. Cocrystals increases the physiochemical properties of the drug. During the preparation of the pharmaceutical product, it is necessary to increase the physicochemical properties of active pharmaceutical ingredients. Pharmaceutical cocrystals can be employed to improve many physicochemical characteristics of a drug that contains solubility, dissolution, bioavailability and stability of pharmaceutical compounds while maintaining its therapeutic activity. It is very advantageous and easy process for production of pharmaceutical compounds. The preparation of polymorphic forms, solvates, hydrates and salts of cocrystals during the synthesis are also increases the properties. The rules and processes like hydrogen bonding rules, solubility, screening through the CSD database and thermodynamic characteristics can be utilized for the rational design of cocrystals and selection of coformers for synthesis multi-component cocrystals. In this paper, we discuss with the synthesis, strategic aspects of formulation, design, and characteristics of cocrystals along perspectives on its regulatory and intellectual property considerations.

 Abstract

When the cryptographic systems were studied the role of randomness is very high. Time Dependent Multiple Random Cipher code is an effective encryption tool. It was studied that the system can be improved by improving the random number generation technique used. Random number generation technique is employed at three points in the algorithm. Increased level of randomness or by introducing improved random number generators in all these three areas the level of security offered by the code can be increased. So the paper revolves around Improving TDMRC Encryption System by bettering Randomness and thus coming up with a new encryption system known as Enhanced TDMRC (E-TDMRC).
