Development and Valiation of Stability Indicating Chromatographic Methods for Drugs Used in Bacterial Infection Diseases Applying Experimental Design

This study was motivated by the fact that certain food poisonings and harmful microorganisms in ethanol and water determine roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa), rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis), clove (Syzygium aromaticum), and thyme (Thymus vulgaris). is to exhibit the capacity to eliminate Least inhibitory focuses (MICs) of different plant extricates against Gram-positive microorganisms (Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus aureus), Gram-negative microscopic organisms (Escherichia coli, Enteritidis, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa) and parasites (Candida albicans) and antibacterial impacts were explored. It is dissolved and measured using the agar well dispersion technique. The concentrate showed antimicrobial efficacy against the microorganisms and yeast used in the tests. Both pHint reduction and cell layer hyperpolarization indicated that the plant extract had a profound effect on the membranes of Gram-positive and Gram-negative microorganisms. Overall, plant extracts have significant potential as unique regular food additives due to their antibacterial properties

Ocean Surface Trash Collector

This paper describes the design of a robot for collecting waste floating on the water surface. Three important issues for designing the aquatic robots are a cost-effective solution along with robustness and durability. Due to the nature of the cleaning work, we designed the robot structure with car like mechanism that can provide high stability, good ability in maneuver and can easily collect all the waste flowing on the water. The plastic pipe container works best for this case and fulfils all structural stability criteria. For collection of waste, a motor-driven conveyor belt has been designed for collecting the wastes and deploy it into a plastic box connected to the platform. This design provides simple and effective waste removal and accommodates large amounts of waste within a little space. This light-weight and tough structure support the total weight of the collected waste, conveyor as well as the hardware components used. The rotating arms system based a differential drive mechanism has been designed, which allows the robots to require a 360 turn on the spot and provides high thrust. Electronic circuit and motors have been placed on the platform, in order to protect them from water. The robot is automatically controlled by Arduino, sensors, motor driver, GPS and GSM modules. The testing of the robot prototype proved to be effective in waste collecting and getting back to the way-point. The maximum trash loads that robot can bear is up 5 kg. The main aim of the project is to optimize time, energy and overall process speed

Understanding the Reasons for Variations in Luminescence Sensitivity of Natural Quartz Using Spectroscopic and Chemical Studies

Natural quartz from diverse provenances exhibit variations in their luminescence sensitivity (photon flux/mg.Gy) that span over ten orders of magnitude. A range of factors (such as crystallization/recrystallization process, irradiation, thermal and optical history) that modify luminescence sensitivity have been considered to explain such differences in luminescence sensitivity. However, a clearly definable/identifiable reason is still awaited; such as, these large variations in luminescence sensitivity are related to commonly occurring luminescence quenchers/enhancers in natural quartz lattice. Towards this, quartz mineral grains extracts from different provenances and from varied depositional environments were examined spectroscopically using Fourier Transform infra-red spectroscopy (FTIR), optically stimulated luminescence (OSL), photoluminescence (PL), time resolved PL (TRPL) decay, thermoluminescence (TL) and the trace element analysis. The present study exhibited an anti-correlation between OSL sensitivity and water content in quartz (estimated through integrated intensity of normalized FTIR signal in the wave number region 3000-3600 cm(-1)), such that a sensitivity change of over 5 orders of magnitude corresponded to a change in integrated water absorption signal by 5 times, but in opposite direction. PL and TRPL results enabled further insights
