Study of Magnetic Susceptibility of Ge4+ Doped Cu-Zn Ferrite

Polycrystalline spinel ferrite Cu_(0.7+x) Zn_0.3 Ge_x Fe_(2-2x) O_4 where x= 0.0, 0.1 to 0.6 prepared by standard double sintered ceramic method. The a. c. susceptibility measurements on powdered samples were made using double coil set up. A specimen is kept in the center of a balanced double coil which itself is at the center of a Helmholtz coil system producing an alternating magnetic field behaves like an alternating dipole and induces a differential emf in the double coil. cT/cRT does not vary with temperature. As composition of Ge4+ is increased the Curie temperature (Tc) decreases. Near the Curie temperature there is sharp decrease of cT/cRT suggesting the single-phase formation of material

The Effect of Different Storage Conditions for Refilled Plastic Drink Bottles on the Concentration of Microplastic Release in Water

The demand for water consumption in plastic bottles has increased in recent years. Most consumers of this type of water think that it is well sterilized. This is due to the high level of propaganda that accompanies its production regarding the extent of its validity. It is also common to reuse these bottles for several times by filling it frequently for different uses, and their use for preserving and storing different types of liquids. This study is conducted for the purpose of detecting and evaluating the pollution caused by microplastics in plastic bottles filled with water for one time, as well as water bottles reused more than once. Moreover, it evaluates the effect of storage period and conditions on the abundance of microplastics when bottles are stored for different times and under the influence of different conditions (shade, cooling and freezing). The results of the study show the presence of fine microplastics in open bottled water exposed to different storage conditions. The highest concentration of microplastics is obtained in storage conditions under the influence of shade with a limit of (1050) microplastics / liter, while the lowest concentration is obtained at around (20) microplastics / liter. The highest concentration of microplastics is obtained in storage conditions under the influence of cooling, with a limit of (850) microplastics / liter, whereas, the lowest concentration is obtained in the range of (16) microplastics / liter. Under the influence of freezing, the highest concentration of microplastics is obtained in the range of (648) microplasics / liter, while the lowest concentration Is obtained in the range of (20) microplastics / liter. Through the results, it is noted that there is a noticeable gradient in the concentration of microplastics for the samples that have been studied. It is also noted that there is an increase in the concentration of microplastics with repeated reuse during continuous periods of time. It is recommended that more studies and research be conducted indicating the extent of the impact of microplastics on human health in addition to other environmental components with emphasis on finding treatment means to get rid of microplastics

Bioethanol Production from Ammonia Pretreated Rice Straw

Rice straw is produced in large quantity throughout the world. Rice straw is a leading feedstock for bioethanol production. Diluted ammonia pretreatment for one week at room temperature was found to be effective pretreatment. This pretreated rice straw was acid hydrolyzed and subsequently fermented with Saccharomyces cerevisiae CP11 strain. 1.5% ammonia pretreatment at room temperature for one week resulted 82.4% delignification and 78.49% of acid hydrolysis. Acid hydrolysate was fermented with maximum ethanol concentration 5.70 % with an ethanol yield of 0.46g/g and fermentation efficiency of 90.6%. Diluted ammonia pretreatment at higher temperature has reduced delignification, saccharification and fermentation efficiency with more phenols and furfurals

A Comprehensive Review on Anti-Cancer Properties of Amaranthus viridis

Amaranthus Viridis L. belongs to the Family (Amaranthaceae) commonly known as “Chowlai” which a common name. A. Viridis contains several compounds like Quercetin, Kaempferol, Hydroxycinnamic acids (HCs) (coumaric acid, ferulic acid, sinapic acid, caffeic acid, chlorogenic acid, rosmarinic acid), Syringic acid (SA), Rutin, Vitexin, Vanillic acid, etc . In search of new activities and chemical entities, phytochemical screening of the extract from leaves of A. Viridis L. indicates the presence of biologically active constituents saponins, tannins, phenols, flavonoids, alkaloids, cardiac glycoside, steroids, and triterpenoids. Quercetin is the aglycone form of several other flavonoid glycosides, Kaempferol (3,4′,5,7- tetrahydroxyflavone) is a natural flavonol, a type of flavonoid, Syringic acid (SA) is a phenolic compound of natural origin. Syringic acid (SA) is a phenolic compound which obtained from natural origin. SA is an excellent compound to be used as a therapeutic agent in various diseases (diabetes, CVDs, cancer, cerebral ischemia, neuro and liver damage) and possesses anti-oxidant, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antiendotoxic activities.

To Identify Drug-Drug Interaction in Cardiac Patients in Tertiary Care Hospitals

The potential for drug-drug interactions (pDDIs) is higher with cardiac medications, and reports of pDDIs in cardiovascular patients are more common. Multimorbidity, a greater number of drugs prescribed, longer hospital stays, complexity of disease, physiological changes with advancing age or conditions like renal failure, shock, hepatic disease like cirrhosis or acute viral hepatitis, stages of disease, and the influence of heart disease on drug metabolism make patients with CVD especially susceptible to DDIs. Our research found that pDDIs occurred at a much higher rate than expected in the Cardiology Division. Incidence of pDDIs was observed to rise with age, polypharmacy, and duration of hospital stay; pDDIs were also more common in males than females. Most of the interactions were of a pharmacodynamic character and were considered to be quite serious. Most pDDIs involved aspirin and clopidogrel, then aspirin and enalapril, and finally enalapril and enalapril. The surveillance of pDDIs in cardiac inpatients may benefit from the creation of such a database in hospitals
