Prevalence of vitamin B12 deficiency among individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus in a South Indian rural community
Background: To estimate the prevalence of vitamin B12 deficiency in a rural south Indian community and to evaluate the association between metformin use and prevalent vitamin B12 deficiency in people with T2DM stratified by oral vitamin B12 supplementation.Methods: Using a cross sectional study design, a random sample of people with T2DM (N=438) was recruited from a rural community. Vitamin B12 deficiency was defined as serum B12 ≤200pg/ml. Data on metformin dose, duration of use, oral vitamin B12 supplementation, and diet were collected. Laboratory measurements included complete blood count, tests for hepatic, renal, and thyroid function, as well as serum vitamin B12 levels and HbA1c.Results: The prevalence of vitamin B12 deficiency in people with T2DM was 11.2% (95% Confidence Interval (CI) 8.2%-14.1%). The odds of vitamin B12 deficiency in patients receiving a metformin dose of 2 grams/day were 4 times higher compared to those receiving ≤1 gram/day, after adjusting for oral B12 supplementation (odds ratio 4.2;95% CI 1.5-11.8). The odds of vitamin B12 deficiency in those taking metformin and receiving oral vitamin B12 supplementation were lower compared to those on metformin and not receiving vitamin B12 supplementation (adjusted odds ratio 0.20; 95% CI 0.06-0.70).Conclusions: Vitamin B12 deficiency affects 1 in 10 people with T2DM, is associated with higher dose metformin use, and oral vitamin B12 supplementation mitigates B12 deficiency in this group
Growth analysis and curcumin content of long, medium and short duration turmeric (Curcuma longa L.) genotypes
Six turmeric (Curcuma longa) genotypes, two genotypes each from long (Armoor andDuggirala), medium (CLI-317 and CLI-330) and short (PCT-13 and PCT-14) duration wereevaluated at Jagtial (Andhra Pradesh). Long duration genotypes accumulated more drymatter and maintained leaf area index, chlorophyll content and cumulative growth rate forlonger period up to 210 days, resulting in higher yield and curing percentage over mediumand short duration genotypes. The long duration genotype Duggirala produced highestfresh rhizome yield (168 g plant-1) and Armoor had highest curing percentage (20.26).Curcumin content was higher in short duration genotypes over medium and long durationgenotypes. Maximum curcumin content was recorded in short duration genotype PCT-14(4.06 %).
 
MECHANICAL BEHAVIOR OF BALL BURNISHING ON COMPOSITE MATERIAL
Burnishing is a chip less finishing method which employs a rolling tool pressed against the work piece for achieving of the surface layer. Ball burnishing process is largely considered in industrial cases in order to restructure surface characteristic. Ball burnishing process is employed on 100% aluminum alloy and aluminum (99%, 98%) with zirconium (+1%, +2%) work piece for current study. In this thesis, work the effect of burnishing parameter like speed, and feed and the number of passes is going to be examined on the surface quality and its wearing characteristics of aluminum with zirconium (+1%, +2%). For this experimental work, I utilize Taylor Hobson for measuring surface roughness and Brinell hardness for measuring surface hardness. In this thesis force and number of passes of tool are kept constant. The main aim of this thesis is to compare surface roughness and surface hardness values on 100% aluminum alloy and aluminum (99%, 98%) with zirconium (+1%, +2%) work piec
Genetic divergence in germplasm collections of turmeric (Curcuma longa L.)
Fifty four turmeric (Curcuma longa) cultivars were evaluated at Jagtial (Andhra Pradesh) by subjecting to D2 statistic to assess the genetic diversity available in the cultivars. The D2 analysis showed wide diversity among the cultivars and they were grouped into six clusters. Inter-cluster distance values also showed wide genetic divergence among the cultivars. Based on cluster-mean values, the cultivars PTS-38 and Duggirala in cluster I (high cured yield), PCT-5 and PCT-8 in cluster III (high curcumin, essential oil and oleoresin contents) and PCT-13, PCT-14 and PCT-10 in cluster IV (short duration, medium yield with good curcumin content) were identified as potential parents for future breeding programmes.

Studies on atmospheric gravity wave activity in the troposphere and lower stratosphere over a tropical station at Gadanki
MST radars are powerful tools to study the mesosphere, stratosphere and troposphere and have made considerable contributions to the studies of the dynamics of the upper, middle and lower atmosphere. Atmospheric gravity waves play a significant role in controlling middle and upper atmospheric dynamics. To date, frontal systems, convection, wind shear and topography have been thought to be the sources of gravity waves in the troposphere. All these studies pointed out that it is very essential to understand the generation, propagation and climatology of gravity waves. In this regard, several campaigns using Indian MST Radar observations have been carried out to explore the gravity wave activity over Gadanki in the troposphere and the lower stratosphere. The signatures of the gravity waves in the wind fields have been studied in four seasons viz., summer, monsoon, post-monsoon and winter. The large wind fluctuations were more prominent above 10 km during the summer and monsoon seasons. The wave periods are ranging from 10 min-175 min. The power spectral densities of gravity waves are found to be maximum in the stratospheric region. The vertical wavelength and the propagation direction of gravity waves were determined using hodograph analysis. The results show both down ward and upward propagating waves with a maximum vertical wave length of 3.3 km. The gravity wave associated momentum fluxes show that long period gravity waves carry more momentum flux than the short period waves and this is presented

Heterogeneous microbial oceanographic environments: Application of GIS technology in deciphering of microenvironment scenarios off the central west coast of India
In the vast oceanic microbial environment of 2468.83km 2, GIS modeling techniques involving sixty query steps, enabled the deciphering of Microenvironments as low as 1.19km 2 to 38.6 km 2 for the summer of 2004 and in case of summer 2005 where 84 query steps were involved to decipher Microenvironments of 10.55km 2 to 25.94km 2. Thirtythree sampling stations were established between Betul to Ankola off the central west coast of India accounting for a spatial coverage of 2468.83km 2. GIS query-modeling investigation was carried out using spatial layers of depth, optical parameters (k-Irradiance attenuation Coefficient, c-Beam attenuation coefficient), sediment size parameters (Sediment Mean Size and Sediment Sorting) and Benthic Foraminifera Suborders (Rotaliina, Textulariina, Miliolina, Lagenina). Foraminifera have been used as a surrogate parameter. However, any microbial parameter could proxy for foraminifers providing for the numerical deciphering of microenvironments. This is suggestive of the assimilation of GIS technology for a better appreciation of microbial oceanography
