CLINICAL STUDY TO EVALUATE THE EFFICACY OF YAPANA BASTI AND VANARI GUTIKA IN THE MANAGEMENT OF KLAIBYA W.S.R. TO ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION

Successful sexual act is one of the most basic needs for the production of the future generations. Successful sexual act is not possible, if a person is suffering from the Klaibya. Acharya have mentioned different causes of the Klabiya, and Malanashishinta is one among these. Malanshishinta can be compared with the erectile dysfunction on the basis of symptoms. The Sthiradipanchamooladi Yapana Basti (960ml/day for 16days), which is mentioned in the Caraka Samhita for Vajikarana by Caraka and Vanari Gutika (5gm twice daily was given p.o. with milk as Anupana for 30 days) mentioned by Bhavaparkasha in Vajikarana chapter are used in this study. One of the basic aims of this thesis is to evaluate, whether the drugs administered through Basti have any benefit over the drugs administered orally, particularly in reference to the administration of Vajikarana drugs for the treatment. Total 30 patients were selected from the OPD & IPD in the P.G.Department of Panchakarma at National Institute of Ayurveda Jaipur, Rajasthan. The patients were randomly divided into three groups and named as Group A, Group B and Group C, with 10 patients in each group. Highly significant result was found in overall effect the subjective criteria in the group of A, B and group C with 55.55%, 34.78% and 94.44% respectively. In the semen analysis highly significant result was found in group-c with 42.34 % (semen volume), 15.97 % (Sperm count) and in Immotile sperm 45.01% respectively

The Reality of Financing Small Tourism Firms: The Case of Indian Tourism SMEs

mall tourist firms occupy an important place within the Indian tourism industry and make a significant contribution towards gross domestic production. This study investigates access to and finance preferences of SME tourism firms in the Punjab area, India. The study employed a post-positivist research approach depending on semi-structured questionnaires and interviews. The findings confirmed that tourism firms relied on pecking order trajectory, drawing capital from own savings, family and informal lenders, which is consistent with the literature. The study provides a unique insight into issues related to tourism firms and benchmarks findings with SME literature to identify the salient points

Kinetic Studies of Phosphotungstic Acid Catalyzed Oxidation of Some Diols by N-Chloropyarazinamide in Aqueous Acetic Acid Medium Using Spectrophotometer

<p>In aqueous acetic acid media, the kinetics of N-chloropyrazinamide (NCPZA) oxidation of diols has been investigated.</p><p>Reaction exhibits first-order dependence with respect to [NCPZA] and [PTA] and Fractional order kinetically obeys the order</p><p>in the [diol] have been observed.

Not AvailableImproper hardening leads to high field mortality and poor growth of in vitro raised plantlets which poses a major hurdle in utilization of in vitro propagation for pomegranate. In this study four arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) strains namely, Glomus mosseae, Acaulospora laevis, Glomus manihotis and a mixed AMF strain were used as biohardening agents to improve survival and growth of in vitro raised pomegranate plantlets. Plantlets inoculated with G. mosseae gave highest survival (90.40% and 88.00% at 60 and 90 DAI, respectively) and root colonization per cent (47.40 and 87.60 at 60 and 90 DAI, respectively). The predominant effect of G. mosseae was also evident on increased plant height (24.96 and 30.50 cm at 60 and 90 DAI, respectively) and root length (23.42 and 27.68 cm at 60 and 90 DAI, respectively) of the inoculated plantlets.Not Availabl

Not AvailableThe efficacy and effect of tamoxifen and letrozole on sex reversal in common carp and Nile tilapia was studied using free swimming fry of Cyprinus carpio and tilapia Oreochromis niloticus. Treatment of letrozole in the dose of 100 mg kg-1 feed brought about 79.39 ± 1.09% masculinisation in C. carpio and 87.91 ± 1.39% masculinisation in O. niloticus, while larger dose (200 mg kg-1 feed) produced 98.47 ± 1.34% male C. carpio and 99.65 ± 0.72% male O. niloticus. In the control group, there was 48.28% male and 50.78% female C. carpio while 46.38% male and 53.616% female O. niloticus. Letrozole significantly increased serum testosterone (T) level suppressing 17β-estradiol (E2) production and the androgenizing action was more potent when compared with tamoxifen treatment. The histological examination of letrozole treated C. carpio and O. niloticus revealed increased number of irregularly spread spermatids and there was hardly any difference in control testes and letrozole treated gonads. The results showed potent and complete action of letrozole (Cyp19) on sex reversal for monosex male fish production delineating its commercial application in aquaculture.Not Availabl

Not AvailableFarmer's participatory evaluation of varieties employs the active participation of farmers in breeding programmes and will usually involve farmers selecting genotypes form genetically variable material. Field experiments were conducted in participatory mode during 2008-09 to 2012-13 in South Andaman district of Andaman and Nicobar Islands in Randomized Block Design in 5 farmers field(replications) in order to assess the suitability of Green gram and Black gram under residual moisture in rice fallow under island ecosystem. Five varieties of Blackgram viz., T9', PDV1', 'TMV1, 'Naveen' and 'Co 5' and six varieties of Green gram viz.,T44', 'P 105', 'PDM 54', Co 5', 'Narendra Moong' and 'PDM 11' were evaluated. Among the varieties evaluated, 'T9'(0.94 t ha) and 'TMV1'(0.95 t ha) of Blackgram and 'PDM54' (0.86 t ha) and 'T44'(0.85 t ha) of Green gram recorded higher grain yields, net returns, energy efficiency and lower specific energy.Not Availabl

Not AvailableUneven distribution of rainfall and its considerable variation from area to area and time to time , is not be very useful in predicting the time of planting of tree species in an area on the basis of average rainfall. The plantation of tree species will be of much more practical to when planted on the basis of weekly rainfall. In the present study, the weekly rainfall data of 19 years (1985- 2003) of hill campus , Ranichauri was analysed at various probability levels and expected rainfall frequency to estimate and work out the suitable weeks for the plantation of evergreen and deciduous species in mid Himalayan region. In general , the evergreen species are planted during the month of june to first fortnight of September and the deciduous species during December to february but monthly mean of rainfall does not ensure the proper establishment of seedlings planted due to its erratic distribution. Hence, weekly plan for plantation was found to be more suitable to ensure the higher survival of plants. The analysis revealed that survival performance of evergreen species would be higher if planted during 26th to 37th standard meteorological week (SMW). as chance of rainfall occurrence in these weeks is almost 70 percent. On the other hand , 6th to 8th SMW were found more suitable for plantation of deciduous tree species as probability of rainfall occurrence during this period is more than 60 percent.Not Availabl
