Review on Therapeutic Uses of Mimosa Pudica (Touch-me-not) Plant

The prostrate or semi-erect subshrub Mimosa pudica L. (Mimosacee), referred to as touch me not, live and die, shame plant, and humble plant, is indigenous to North and South America as well as Australia. They are delicate soft grey green leaves that fold and droop at night or when handled and chilled, and they are thickly equipped with recurved thorns in India. Its peculiar bending behaviors have given it the nickname "curiosity plant." According to Ayurveda, the root of this plant is bitter, acrid, cooling, vulnerary, and alexipharmic. Leprosy, dysentery, vaginal and uterine complaints, inflammations, burning sensations, asthma, leucoderma, tiredness, and blood disorders are among the conditions it is used to treat. It appears to be a prospective herbal candidate deserving of further research, as shown by its pharmacological profile Numerous illnesses, including cancer, diabetes, hepatitis, obesity, and urinary infections, are also prevented or treated using mimosa pudica. It predominantly contains pharmacological activities that include antibacterial, antivenom, antitertility, anticonvulsant, depressant, aphrodisiac, and others. The plant has been used to treat urogenital issues for ages

SEROPREVALENCE OF INFECTIOUS BOVINE RHINOTRACHEITIS (IBR) IN NORTH EASTERN (NE) STATES OF INDIA

Infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR) is an infectious disease caused by BoHV-1 and belongs to the Herpesviridae family. IBR is endemic in India including north eastern states of the country. Hence the study was undertaken to understand the seroprevalence of IBR in north eastern parts of the country. A total of 3125 cattle (Holstein Friesian crossbred) serum samples from 35 districts of five north eastern states (Assam, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, and Sikkim) of India were screened for infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR) virus antibodies using Avidin biotin ELISA.  A two-stage random sampling methodology was followed for the collection of samples. Results from the present study revealed that the overall seropositivity was reported around 29.50% while the highest and lowest seropositivity of 43.39% and 16.66% were reported in the states of Sikkim and Assam respectively, followed by Mizoram (42.16%), Manipur (29.86%) and Meghalaya (27.40%). Cattle of higher age groups showed the highest seropositivity compared to younger ones. A higher percent of IBR antibodies in cattle of NE states is a cause of concern and a detailed study on IBR prevalence comprising of a large number of the bovine population need to be undertaken

Review on Calotropis Gigantea as a Topically used Plant

There have been numerous reports of the Asclepiadaceae plant, Calotropis gigantea R.Br, having medicinal and other uses. Plants have been employed as a source of medicinal substances since ancient times. In the indigenous system of medicine, plants are used extensively to treat disease. Traditional medicine makes use of various plant extracts or bioactive substances. This kind of research offers health at a reasonable price. The findings imply that the stem, leaves, and flower's phytochemical qualities can be used to treat a variety of diseases. The nation that produces the most medicinal herbs is India, which is fittingly known as the world's botanical garden. Calotropis gigantea, a member of the Asclepiadaceae/Apocynaceae family, is also referred to as the Crown Flower and has unique therapeutic properties that can be used alone or in conjunction with other medications to treat common disorders. Herbal medicines have a very wide range of medicinal applications. In ayurveda, the entire dried plant is used as a mucus explusor, parasitic worm expeller, and rejuvenator. Leprosy and asthma are treated with its dried root, while vertigo, baldness, hair loss, and rheumatoid arthritis are all treated with its latex. Calotropis is employed for a variety of conventional and homoeopathic treatments. The plant's many parts can be separated and used as medicine to get a variety of benefits

Novel method for concentration of low level radioactive waste

149-151Low level radioactive waste (condensate, regenerant and detergent) is first subjected to electrodialysis for concentration of radioactive cations into very small volume and thus converting major portion of the waste into a dischargeable environment friendly waste. Volume reduction factor of ~<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family: " calibri","sans-serif";mso-ascii-theme-font:minor-latin;mso-fareast-font-family:="" "times="" new="" roman";mso-hansi-theme-font:minor-latin;mso-bidi-font-family:arial;="" color:black;mso-ansi-language:en-us;mso-fareast-language:en-us;mso-bidi-language:="" ar-sa"=""> 10 is achieved. The concentrated waste generated during electrodialysis is then used as feed for electrochemical ion concentrator to concentrate radioactive cations further into very small volume. A volume reduction factor of 35-40 is achieved in this process. Thus the use of electrodialyser coupled with electrochemical ion concentrator gives a total volume reduction factor of about 350-400.Pilot plant scale study has been successfully completed.</span

Exploring the Impact of Climate Variables on Livestock Anthrax Outbreaks: A Machine Learning Approach

Anthrax, a globally significant disease, poses substantial threats to both livestock and human populations. Timely identification of anthrax outbreaks is paramount to mitigate its impact on animal health, human health, and public safety. This study aims to construct a predictive model for livestock anthrax disease occurrence. By leveraging the potential of advanced Machine-Learning techniques, we projected the likelihood of anthrax outbreaks across India, through incorporating a diverse set of meteorological, and remote sensing parameters. The ultimate goal is to establish a spatial risk map that can serve as an early warning system, aiding in the anticipation and management of future anthrax outbreaks in India's livestock population. Our analysis revealed elevated risk zones for anthrax outbreaks in the southern and north-eastern regions of India, contrasting with medium to low-risk areas in the central parts. Notably, Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI), Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), rainfall, soil moisture, and wind speed emerged as pivotal variables driving the model's predictive accuracy. Among the employed models, the random forest, adaptive boosting, and classification tree analysis approaches showcased superior performance in livestock anthrax risk assessment. The risk map was generated using significant variables by exploiting best fitted models. These findings hold profound implications for policymakers, guiding the targeted deployment of control strategies against anthrax outbreaks. The dynamic risk maps generated through this study enhance public awareness, equipping decision-makers with vital insights for informed action. By spotlighting risk management endeavours, these maps further enhance governance and risk mitigation efforts

A report of a novel approach for the management of paediatric mandibular fracture using a prefabricated adaptable surgical splint

Paediatric facial fractures are relatively rare. The inherent elasticity of the bones with more of the cartilage than that of the mineralised bone accounts for this. The principles involved in the management of facial fractures are the same irrespective of the age of the patient; however, in children, the techniques used are necessarily modified by certain anatomical, physiological, psychological and feeding factors related to childhood and the parents. In an attempt to keep the treatment and fixation technique simple, the case, presented here, describes the management of a mandibular parasymphyseal fracture in a 16-month-old child with the use of a prefabricated adaptable surgical splint
