Profitability Analysis of Selected Private Sector Banks

The fundamental objective of this study is to acquire an understanding of the profitability of the many private sector banks that were selected for the purpose of investigation. A lottery was used as the fundamental method of random sampling for the purpose of this inquiry. The sample unit for this investigation will consist of five banks that were chosen by the researcher. The investigation will take place over the course of a period of five calendar years, commencing in 2017 and concluding in 2021. The researcher made use of a variety of accounting techniques, such as profitability ratios, as well as statistical methods, such as one-way analysis of variance; the findings are discussed further down in this section

Pepsin digested oat bran proteins: Separation, antioxidant activity, and identification of new peptides

The aim of this study was to determine pepsin hydrolysis conditions to produce digested oat bran proteins with higher radical scavenging activities and separate and identify peptides. Isolated proteins were then digested with different concentrations of pepsin and incubation times. Hydrolysates produced with 1: 30 enzyme substrate (E/S) ratio and 2 h possessed the highest peroxyl radical scavenging activity, 608 ± 17 μM TE/g (compared to 456-474 μM TE/g for other digests), and was therefore subsequently fractionated into eight fractions (F1-F8) by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). F1 and F2 had little activity because of their low protein contents. Activities of F3-F8 were 447-874 μM TE/g, 20-36%, and 10-14% in the peroxyl, superoxide anion, and hydroxyl radical tests, respectively. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was used to identify a total of fifty peptides that may have contributed to the activity of F3, a fraction that better scavenged radicals

On the recent cyclone lashed across Gujarat coast and its effect on marine flsheries sector

A heavy cyclonic wind crossed the coastal Gujarat on 9-6-'98 resulting in the destruction of life and property besides total disruptions of communication, electricity and water supply systems. The present report summarises the effect of this cyclone on the marine fishery sector of coastal Gujarat

Unusual landings of flying fish Cheilopogon furcatus(Mitchill, 1815) in Veraval, Mangrol and Chorwad

Flying fish, locally called "Zeri" or Kunga" have been occassionally reported from different fish landing centres in Gujarat. They are tropical oceanic pelagic fish which migrate and aggregate in the near shore areas for spawning

Impact of in vitro gastrointestinal digestion on peptide profile and bioactivity of cooked and non-cooked oat protein concentrates

Oat (Avena sativa) is one of the most cultivated and consumed cereals worldwide. Recognized among cereals for its high protein content (12% to 24%), it makes it an excellent source of bioactive peptides, which could be modified during processes such as heating and gastrointestinal digestion (GID). This work aims to evaluate the impact of heat treatment on the proteolysis of oat proteins and on the evolution of antioxidant peptide release during in vitro static GID, in terms of comparative analysis between cooked oat protein concentrate (COPC) and non-heated oat protein concentrate (OPC) samples. The protein extraction method and cooking procedure used showed no detrimental effects on protein quality. After GID, the proportion of free amino acids/dipeptides (40% for both samples (OPC and COPC), thus producing peptides with low molecular weight and enhanced bioactivity. Furthermore, during GID, the amino acid profile showed an increase in essential, positively-charged, hydrophobic and aromatic amino acids. At the end of GID, the reducing power of OPC and COPC increased >0.3 and 8-fold, respectively, in comparison to the non-digested samples; while ABTS•+ and DPPH• showed a >20-fold increase. Fe2+ chelating capacity of OPC and COPC was enhanced >4 times; similarly, Cu2+ chelation showed a >19-fold enhancement for OPC and >10 for COPC. β-carotene bleaching activity was improved 0.8 times in OPC and >9 times in COPC; the oxygen radical antioxidant capacity assay increased 2 times in OPC and >4.7 times in COPC, respectively. This study suggests that OPC after cooking and GID positively influenced the nutritional and bioactive properties of oat peptides. Thus, COPC could be used as a functional food ingredient with health-promoting effects, as hydrothermal treatment is frequently used for this type of cereals
