    Bacteria are exceptionally adept at acquiring resistance to antibiotics and antiseptic agents, hence new antibiotics and strategies are therefore needed to deal with this threat. Several authors have reported the inhibitory effect of anti microbial peptides of animal origin on bacteria and research is on the rise about insect antimicrobial peptides. An attempt has been made to have a comprehensive review of the research work carried out on antimicrobial peptides from insects

    ABSTRACT Detergent is an aggregation of surfactants, builders, fillers by enabling the solution to wet a surface quickly and effectively. It also emulsifies oily soils and keep them, bleaches, dyes, enzymes and several other ingredients. Surfactants cleanses suspended and dispersed so they do not settle back on the surface. To achieve superior cleaning performance, other compounds like builders and fillers are added to surfactants. Sodium dodecyl sulphate is an anionic surfactant, primary ingredient added to detergents and cleaning products. In the present investigation, the molecular interactions of SDS are studied through the addition of fillers sodium chloride and sodium sulphate. The important usage of NaCl and Na 2 SO 4 are in the manufacture of detergents. Sodium sulphate is a very cheap material, consuming approximately about 50% of world production. It helps in "leveling", reducing negative charges on fibers so that dyes can penetrate evenly on fabrics. Similarly sodium chloride also serves as effective filler when added to SDS. The efficiency of these SDS and fillers in detergent action can be analyzed by the thermo dynamical study using ultrasonic method with the measurement of ultrasonic velocity, viscosity and density. Using the measured values, thermo dynamical parameters like internal pressure, free volume, osmotic pressure, ∆πi, Gibb's free energy, molar cohesive energy were evaluated for aqueous SDS with fillers at different temperatures. Ultrasonic study of the aqueous solutions reveals some information regarding internal pressure which is a single factor appears to vary due to the internal cohesive forces resultant from attractive and repulsive forces between the molecules. It measures the molecular cohesion and instantaneous volume derivative of cohesive energy associated with an isothermal expansion of solutions. The internal pressure of hydrogen bonded liquids (water) is large as compared to nonhydrogen bonded liquids. Hence it can be used for studying molecular association of hydrogen bonding. Similarly free volume is one of significant factor in explaining the free space and its dependent properties have close connection with molecular structure and it may show features about various interactions. It seems to be conditioned by repulsive forces whereas internal pressure is sensitive to attractive forces. Gibb's free energy is the energy associated with a chemical reaction that can be used to do work. Molar cohesive energy is arising due to the mutual attractiveness of molecules. Osmotic pressure is the minimum pressure which needs to be applied to a solution to prevent the inward flow of solvent molecules across a semipermeable membrane. Various interactions of SDS with fillers are explained in terms of above parameters and also the relationships π i= π 0+ Am 2+ Bm for internal pressure and V f= V f0+ Cm 2+ Dm for free volume were also verified.

    ABSTRACT: In many researches they have created one environment with multiple clouds for scalable capabilities. The demand for scalable resources in some applications has been rapidly increased. By understanding the mutual dependencies between resources, utilization of users, user preferences a collaborative cloud computing has been introduced, It can be achieve emphasized efficient management of resources and user satisfaction between distributed resources in Collaborative cloud computing. These which do collaboratively supported by many organizations (Google, Microsoft, Amazon). Collaborative cloud computing (CCC) is next logical step in evolution of cloud and service grid technologies. Here mainly discussing about how resource selection done in collaborative cloud, resource selection based on user preferences, which mostly user preferred resources. This environment is to point out the suitable resources, ability and capability of resources, user requirements, and availability of resources. So that users can choose credible cloud platform

    Abstract: In an era of the digital world, carrying of ATM cards should no more be a restriction to withdraw the money. A simple SIM card would do the needful replacing the necessity of a physical ATM card to access an ATM. When the ATM card holder is out of station or unable to locate his ATM card and if any cash payments are to be done urgently, then he can withdraw the cash himself or by sending any executive on his behalf to the nearest ATM, can insert their SIM card in the machine, type the password and the requisite amount and then the money can be withdrawn without using the ATM card. In short, this project will deliver faster and easier cash withdrawal from the ATM without the use of ATM card
