    Vegetative propagation of Eucalyptus species through polyglobule

    Get PDF
    Macro-propagation of Eucalypyus species is possible on large scale through relatively cheaper technique with polyglobule than automatic and low cost chambers. Further it also gives an added advantage in controlling diseases and their spread as it is confined to the specific polyglobule. The spread of the humidity and temperature in the polyglobule are uniform unlike other large mist chambers

    295-296The branch of mechanics that has been subjected to most intensive attack from the nonlinear view point is the theory of vibration of mechanical and electrical systems. Other branches of mechanics such as income pressible and compressible fluid flow, elasticity plasticity wave propagation, etc., also have been studied as nonlinear problems, but the greatest progress has been made in treating vibration of nonlinear systems.</span

    Glacial Lake Outburst Floods (GLOFs) in a deglaciating environment, representing significant threat to downstream people and infrastructure, increasing the necessity of prioritization and assessment of potentially critical glacial lakes (PCGLs). In this current study, a comprehensive updated inventory of glacial lakes for the Indus River basin has been prepared, resulting in 5335 lakes (≥ 0.0025 ± 0.0006 km2), covering a total area of 173.95 ± 10.13 km2. Parameters have been derived using satellite data for two purposes, ‘preliminary screening’ and ‘quantitative assessment’. Using 4 parameters, 367 lakes were preliminary screened-in for further analysis, and 6 quantitative parameters were analysed using Equal Weights (EW) and Unequal Weights methods (UEW). These both methods were applied for two scenarios, scenario-1 which considers 73 lakes (≥ 0.1 km2), and scenario-2 which considers all 367 preliminary screened-in lakes (≥ 0.02 km2). UEW outperformed EW analysis and identified 20 and 48 high potential lakes for scenario-1 and scenario-2 respectively, where all 20 lakes of scenario-1 have been found in common with those of scenario-2, with a difference in their rank. But only 10 of them have storage volume ≥ 10 MCM and has been flagged as high-risk lakes, of which 6 are end-moraine dammed lakes and have been considered as PCGLs, due to their high bursting potential and self-destructive nature. Rest 4 high risk lakes along with remaining 38 lakes with volume < 10 MCM, are considered as critical lakes in case of dynamic mode of failure, caused due to mass movement of avalanche, landslide, heavy precipitation, etc. Highlights 152 historic GLOF events has been reported from 28 sites that occurred in Indus River basin Updated glacial lake inventory of Indus River basin using high resolution IRS satellite data Total of 5335 GL’s were mapped, and 48 of them are identified as high potential lakes UEW outperformed EW method to evaluate weighted integrated index for potentiality assessment 6 lakes are found to be as potentially critical glacial lakes (PCGLs) in the Indus River basi

    Iodine efficiently catalyzes the glycosidation of glycals with allyltrimethylsilane, trimethylsilyl cyanide and trimethylsilyl azide in dichloromethane at ambient temperature to afford the corresponding 2,3-unsaturated allyl glycosides, glycosyl cyanides and glycosyl azides in excellent yields with high α-selectivity

    Effects of Carbon Fiber Hybridization on Mechanical, Structural, and Thermal Properties of Cordia dichotoma fiber-reinforced epoxy composite

    In this study, an attempt is made to check whether a hybrid composite made up of both synthetic and natural fibers (Carbon and Cordia Dichotoma respectively) can be made bio-degradable, at least to some extent, without much compromising on the mechanical properties. Hybrid composites were prepared by reinforcing alkali treated Cordia dichotoma and carbon fibers into epoxy resin using hand lay-up method. By varying the number of layers of fibers in the composite specimen and fixing 20% fiber weight for all composites, nine distinct combinations of specimens were prepared. The maximum tensile strength of 386.68 MPa, flexural strength of 647.08 MPa, and impact energy of 4.82 J were obtained for composites produced with pure carbon fiber, whereas hybrid composite exhibit tensile strength of 367.76 MPa, flexural strength of 646.41MPa and impact energy of 4.74 J. The interfacial bonding between the fibers and matrix of tested specimens was studied using a scanning electron microscope (SEM), as well as the arrangement of fibers within the matrix for the manufactured composite. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) was used to investigate thermal stability, and it was found that it was thermally stable up to 415°C. 9. Crystallinity value increases from 20% carbon fiber to 20% alkali fiber

    The purpose of this research study was to establish ziprasidone HCl NR 40 mg and trihexyphenidyl HCl SR 4mg in the form of bi-layer sustained release floating tablets. The tablets were prepared using sodium HPMC K4M / HPMC K15M as bio-adhesive polymers and sodium bicarbonate acting as a floating layer. Tablets were evaluated based on different parameters such as thickness, hardness, friability, weight variation, in vitro dissolution studies, content of active ingredient and IR studies. The physico-chemical properties of the finished product complied with the specifications. In vitro release from the formulation was studied as per the USP XXIII dissolution procedure. The formulations gave a normal release effect followed by sustained release for 12 h which indicates bimodal release of ziprasidone HCl from the matrix tablets. The data obtained was fitted to Peppas models. Analysis of n values of the Korsmeyer equation indicated that the drug release involved non-diffusional mechanisms. By the present study, it can be concluded that bi-layer tablets of ziprasidone HCl and trihexyphenidyl HCl will be a useful strategy for extending the metabolism and improving the bioavailability of Ziprasidone HCl and Trihexyphenidyl HCl.<br>O propósito deste trabalho foi preparar ziprasidona. HCl NR 40 mg e triexifenidila.HCl SR 4 mg na forma de comprimidos efervescentes bicamada de liberação controlada. Os comprimidos foram preparados utilizando HPMC K4M / HPMC K15M sódico como polímero bioadesivo e bicarbonato como camada efervescente. Os comprimidos foram avaliados quanto a diferentes parâmetros, como espessura, dureza, friabilidade, variação de peso, dissolução in vitro, conteúdo do ingrediente ativo e estudos de IV. As propriedades físico-químicas dos produtos finais cumprem as especificações. A liberação in vitro da formulação foi estudada de acordo com o procedimento de dissolução da USP XXIII. As formulações resultaram em liberação normal, seguida por liberação controlada por 12 h, o que indica a liberação bimodal de cloridrato de ziprasidona dos comprimidos matriz. Os dados obtidos se adequaram aos modelos de Peppas. A análise de valores de n da equação de Korsmeyer indicou que a liberação do fármaco envolveu mecanismos não difusionais. Por este estudo, pode-se concluir que os comprimidos bicamada de ziprasidona.HCl e de triexifenidila.HCl serão um bom caminho para estender o metabolismo e para melhorar a biodisponibilidade de ziprasidona.HCl e de triexifenidila.HCl
