Social Interaction and Class Struggles in Noughts & Crosses by Malorie Blackman

This research employs a sociological approach to literature, drawing on Georg Simmel's social interaction theory and Karl Marx's class struggle concepts, to analyze the dynamics between the upper-class Crosses and the lower-class Noughts in the novel Noughts & Crosses. The study identifies five forms and six types of social interactions, encompassing superordination and subordination, exchange, conflict, prostitution, and sociability, along with character-based classifications such as the miser, the spendthrift, the stranger, the adventurer, the nobility, and the poor. The central focus lies in understanding the struggles of the Noughts in their pursuit of social equality within a deeply divided society. Despite collective and individual efforts, fueled by class consciousness and the formation of the Liberation Militia, the research concludes that achieving equality remains elusive. The powerful Crosses, driven by hidden manipulations and a desire to maintain the existing system, thwart the Noughts' endeavors, underscoring the persistent challenges faced by the lower class in a society marked by reverse racism

In-Vivo Analgesic And Anti-Inflammatory Effects Of Eel (Anguilla bicolor bicolor) Oil

Analgesic and anti-inflammatory tests of eel (Anguilla bicolor bicolor) oil on animal models have been performed. Previous studies have proven that oral administration of EPA and DHA exhibits analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects. Gas Chromatography analysis shows that eel contains EPA and DHA. In this research, the analgesic activity was evaluated with the acetic acid-induced writhing test and hot plate test, while the anti-inflammatory properties were identified using carrageenan-induced inflammation. In the writhing test, 25 male Swiss Webster mice were divided into five groups. Group I was given 0.5% CMC-Na as a negative control, group II was given 65 mg/kg b.w. of Acetosal as a positive control, group III-V was given eel oil at different doses, namely 2400, 4800, and 9600 mg/kg b.w. of the mouse. For the hot plate test, 6.5 mg/kg b.w. of tramadol acted as the positive control. Similar to the analgesic effect analysis, the anti-inflammatory test also divided 25 male Wistar rats into five groups. Group I as a negative control was given 0.5% CMC-Na,  group II was given 9 mg/kg b.w. of diclofenac potassium as a positive control, and group III-V were given eel oil at different doses, namely 1500, 3000, and 6000 mg/kg b.w. of the rat. The results of the acetic acid-induced writhing test and hot plate test showed that when compared with the positive and negative controls, eel oil had a potential analgesic activity with a significance value of p< 0.05. The analgesic effects were noticeable at doses of 2400, 4800 and 9600 mg/kg b.w. in the writhing test and at 4800 and 9600 mg/kg b.w. in the hot plate test. The anti-inflammatory test showed that eel oil was efficacious when administered at the doses of 1500, 3000, and 6000 mg/kg b.w. with percentage inhibition of 34.35%, 35.132%, and 40.28%, respectively.
