Impact of E-resources among the Research Scholars of the Faculty of Social Science and the Department of Education of the University of Jammu, Jammu: A Case Study

This paper throws light on the utilization of e-resources by the research scholars of social sciences and Education departments. A survey method was applied to collect the data and a structured 130 questionnaires were distributed to the research scholars in the particular departments, out of a total, 87 filled questionnaire were received back with giving an overall response rate of 66.92% which were later studied and analysed each and every questionnaire to fulfill the objectives. The paper examined and analysed various use of e-resources among research scholars such as purpose, frequency, types, troubles, benefits and formats which research scholars prefer while accessing the e-resources to fulfill their desired information. After analysis, it has been found that the maximum research scholars are aware of e-resources and uses them as per their need to update their knowledge in their respective subject fields

Assessment of phytochemical screening by Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopic analysis of peach (Prunus persica) seed biomass from Uttarakhand region of India

Prunus persica (Peach) has several medicinal and nutritive properties such as antioxidant, antimalarial, anticoagulant, antifungal, ant-allergic, etc. The present study focuses on the exploratory for phytochemicals constituents screening of seed extracts of  Prunus persica from Uttarakhand region of India by Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis. The extraction of seed was carried out using soxhlet apparatus in different solvents such as petroleum ether, chloroform, ethyl acetate, ethanol, and water. The characteristics of physical parameters of dried seed of P. persica were reported  as total ash (14.250±0.126 %), acid insoluble ash (6.800±0.036 %), water-soluble ash (11.714±0.123 %), and sulphated ash value (2.274±0.025 %); whereas, the extractive values were also recorded as alcohol soluble extractive (1.917±0.011 %), and water-soluble extractive (10.580±0.048 %). The highest values of  nutritive components (366.778±0.257 %) were followed by, carbohydrate (45.500±0.336 %), crude protein (29.360±0.551 %), available carbohydrate content (28.002±0.439 %), moisture content (12.547±0.022 %), crude fibre (11.602±0.123 %), crude fat (7.482±0.068 %), and total nitrogen (4.695±0.032 %). The maximum extraction yield was recorded in the aqueous extract solution (11.15 %), followed by petroleum ether (2.8 %), ethyl acetate (2.1 %), ethanol (1.6 %), and chloroform (0.4 %). Besides, this the most effective chemical bonding groups of FTIR spectra analyzed in a sample of P. persica seed were N-H, O-H (3600-3400 1/cm), C-H (3000-2800 1/cm), N-H, C-C, C=O (1680-1550 1/cm), C-H (1470-1350 1/cm), CO-OR (1400-1000 1/cm), C-H (850-550 1/cm), and C-I (500-400 1/cm), respectively. Therefore, this study provides useful insights into the beneficial properties of P. persica seed biomass from the Uttarakhand region of India, which may be further used for the production of several pharmaceuticals and nutraceutical products

Mapping the Indian Contribution in Pathogen Research during 2008-2017: A Scientometric Analysis

The present study mainly examines the growth rate of publications in the field of Pathogen research in India during the period of 2008-2017. The study based on Scopus databases and using scientometric tools. It reveals that a total 13070 of publications were published from the marked period of study. our analysis includes the year wise publications output, annual growth rate, compound annual growth rate, relative growth rate and doubling time, most productive authors, documents wise distribution of publications etc., and found that the maximum 1925 (14.73%) of research papers were published in the year 2016, followed by 1896 (14.51%) of publication in 2017. The maximum 36.541 annual growth rate was recorded in the year 2011, and 0.1189 CAGR was recorded in the year 2009. The maximum RGR 0.82 was recorded in the year 2009, and the highest doubling time 4.414 was recorded in the year 2017. The highest 69 publications were contributed by Dhama, K. and the maximum 10909 documents were ‘Article’ type

CHALLENGES TO DESIGN A DISTRIBUTED DATABASE USING UML AND MERISE

oai:ojs2.ijact.org:article/1Up-front handling of the prior and specific factors in the design of distributed database is an important factor that can influence the effectiveness of its implementation. In this paper, we aim at highlighting the major and specific constraints of a distributed database in the approaches of the MERISE and UML methods that can have a negative impact on the implementation of their results and thus deserve the attention of a researcher to create a new and appropriate method
