 Abstract

In agriculture field, farmers are facing many problems, but the one major problem here is to know which type of soil is suitable for cultivating plants. So we are doing this project to show digitally, which type of soil is helps to grow the plants to increase the yield. The major aim of this research is to use color sensor for the detection of NPK, Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P) and Potassium (K) level in soil. A color sensor is used to measure and to detect the presence of NPK content of soil. The color sensor�s photodiode is designed to decide the amount of additional contents of these nutrients that has to be added into the soil to increase soil richness and fertility. The color sensor is implemented as a nutrition detection sensor which consists of four LEDs as light source and a photodiode as a light detector. Color of soil is changed with the help of capsule. The light from LEDs falls on soil mixture and reflected back after absorption. The TCS3200 color sensor is associated with 8*8 arrays of photodiodes with four different filters. By selecting the photodiode filter�s readings, able to find the intensity of the various colors. The nutrient absorbs the light from LED and the photodiode convert the remaining light that is reflected by reflector (sample) to current. The color sensor has a current-to-frequency converter that converts the photodiode�s readings and results into square waveform with a frequency that is directly proportional to the light intensity of the chosen color. This frequency is then, read by the Arduino uno. The output from the color sensor is converted to digital readable form. Then LCD display shows which growth is suitable for the tested soil by comparing output with database. Keywords: Color Sensor, NPK, LED, photodiode, wifi module.

 Abstract

Ayurveda has described Ardita under eighty Vataj Nanatmaja Vyadhi which is characterised by Mukhavakrata, Vakasanga, Shirokampa, Grivachibukadanta Vedana and Netravikriti. On the basis of these features Ardita can be correlated with Bell�s palsy, a lower motor neuron disorder of facial nerve. In the present study a Hindu male patient aged 20years presented with typical features of Bell�s palsy and was registered for the study. Patient was treated according to the treatment of Ardita given in Ayurvedic classics. Nasya with Kshirabala taila, Tarpana with Jeevantyadi Ghrita, Karnapoorana with Ksheer- Bala Taila and Shiropichu with Rasanaadi taila were done along with oral drugs for 28 days. Assessment criteria was adopted on the basis of House Brackmann�s grading for Facial Paralysis. Patient had 100% relief in wide palpebral aperture, smiling sign, nasolabial folds, dribbling of saliva, forehead frowning and trapping of food between cheeks and teeth. No side-effects of medicines or procedure were observed during and after the treatment.

 Abstract

Nowadays information is available to our electronic gadgets. The one thing that concerns us is how to make tasks faster and easier. The product is similar to a regular mirror that can display weather reports, temperature, time and daily news. Raspberry pi stays at the back scene and controls the data displayed on the mirror while the LED display that is placed behind the two way mirror can serve various applications. Our proposed system allows us to build such mirrors that allow for mirrors to receive news online and display it on the mirror screen along with other details including current temperature from an open weather platform for a futuristic and modern lifestyle. Our system uses a raspberry pi based processor board along with displays that are interfaced together. We use a precisely modelled panel to construct the outer frame. Then we use specialized glass with a back frame to encase the system. The frame cavity is now fitted with precisely positioned mounts for the display housing to be fitted in the mirror. This is necessary to achieve the desired effect. Now we use raspberry pi to connect with the internet using an IOT circuit through the use of a Wi-Fi module. This allows us to receive data through the IOT platform.

Abstract In Ethiopia, Pastoralists represent approximately 10% percent of the country population, and approximately 40% of the land area of Ethiopia is considered to be under pastoral production system. Consequently, Pastoralists contribute a significant amount to the national economy. However, the pastoral production system and in particular the food security and livelihood situation is highly threatened due to various factors. This review is, therefore, shows the definition and concepts of food security and livelihood diversification. Besides, it elaborate factors affecting food security and effect of livelihood diversification on food security in pastoral area of Ethiopia. Methodologically, this manuscript is based on intensive literature review of published materials such as books, articles and extra scholar materials. It was displayed that household head sex, family size, age of household head, educational level of household head, crop production and agricultural technology (use of chemical fertilizer and pesticides, improved seeds), livestock ownership and number, dependency ratio, distance from market center, access to credit and developmental agents visit had found to be significant in determining household food security. Livelihood diversification basically influenced by push and pull factors. In general, higher the level of the household livelihood diversification, results with, the more food secure of the households. In the future, concerned agents should focus on boosting educational level, family planning and awareness creation to reduce dependency ratio, credit serves and visit by development agents for livelihood diversification and thereby food security.

Upper respiratory infections are the one of the most common infectious diseases in children. Streptococcal pharyngitis is the most common bacterial infections in children. The widespread use of penicillin VK has been limited in some countries due to increasing percentage of therapeutic failures. Tolerance to the penicillin or the presence of lactamase producing copathogens may be the reasons for this. Very less studies have been performed in children regarding best drug used for upper respiratory infections. Clarithromycin and azithromycin have been compared in the treatment of upper respiratory infection like pharyngitis and tonsillitis in children between 5yr to 15 yr. in the study involving 60 patients.

 Abstract

The article aims to predict a level of stress by assessing the individual's activities. This is done through the use of a sensor that is mounted on a glove. The motion sensor selected for this project was chosen as compared to a physiological signal, due to its low cost and the fact that it is least affected by environmental factors. The main cause of accidents nowadays is the increased level of stress on the crew members. The physiological signal measurements using the sensors are mandatory for measuring the stresses of the crew member. This paper presents the concept of predicting the stress level of the crew members based on heart beat rate and body temperature. This is achieved through the use of temperature sensor, IR sensor and heartbeat sensor, which is placed in the gloves worn by the crew members. The GSM module transmits the total readings to the mobile unit. The crew members 'self-reports are used as the basis for estimating the crew members' stress levels. Infrared sensor is used for accident prevention. If there is an irregular condition in the pilot's heartbeat the flight is switched to automatic mode. Then the person's current status is sent out using GSM. The readings of the sensors used above revealed that exact values could be obtained. This shows the need to include the temperature sensor, IR sensor, pulse sensor for tracking the stress level of the crew members.

Since the development of urbanization in the world. The construction has increased rapidly. The increase in demand of construction leads to the production of Co2 in the environment. About 7% of the environmental pollution is due to cement manufacturing industries. Thus to lower the amount of objective to do this in concrete is as the dumping of rice husk has been a problem where it leads to problem in land cover and its nature of light weight made this to produce the polluted particles into environment. Also, the husk ash contains silicon which is a major constrain that material strong and fineness equal to cement. Here in, we had a problem as rice husk don�t have the properties of the binding when mixed with water. So, as a concern there placement is limited to 5%, 10% and 15%. Thus mixed concrete is allowed to curing after passing its fresh stage tests. After curing the major mechanical property, compression, tensile and flexure test, where as these are the major test that defines the quality of the concrete. The final aim of the project is produce a concrete that is environmentally free and structurally strengthen concrete.

The role of ion channels in the development of different cancer has become a novel area of research. There are so many ion channels which are responsible for cancer like phenotype. Among all chloride ion channel is considered to be one of the most active channels along with potassium in case of tumor genesis. High rates of proliferation, active migration, and invasiveness are all hallmarks of cancer which are caused due to channelopathy. It is known that all this action requires action of chloride channel activity as well as the action of ANOCTAMIN genes, which controls the expression of chloride channels in cancer. As the chloride channels involvement is very essential for cancer cell, and as it is known that the abnormal activity of chloride channels can promote the cancer so they can be used as possible aims to cure cancer. Here in this reviewthe chloride channels how they can acts as biomarkers of cancer and specifically which channels are responsible for cancer and ways of linking it for developing anti-tumor drugs will be discussed.
