Nagaon district of Assam is located in the flood plains of the river Brahmaputra. The physiographic features of Nagaon District makes it ideal home for the growth of different types of economic plants. But these plants are found to be decayed by the association of some macro fungi. Among these macro fungi, different Ganoderma species were found to be associated with the different timber yielding plants and palm species. Ganoderma with great diversity produce large fruitification of different size, shape and colour. During the investigation 7 seven Ganoderma species were collected from 10 different Revenue Circles of Nagaon district. This work revealed that there are great diversity of Ganoderma species in Nagaon district, Assam. Some Ganoderma species have medicinal properties.

A simple, rapid, specific, stability indicating method was developed and validated for the simultaneous estimation of Abacavir sulfate, Lamivudine and Dolutegravir sodium in pharmaceutical dosage form using RP-HPLC. The chromatographic separation was done using BDS column of dimensions 250mm x 4.6mm, 5m particle size with mobile phase consisting of potassium dihydrogen phosphate buffer and acetonitrile in the ratio 45:55%v/v run on an isocratic mode of flow rate 1.0ml/min. The column oven temperature was maintained at 30ºC. The detection was done at a wavelength of 240nm. The developed method was validated in accordance with ICH guidelines, evaluating accuracy, precision, ruggedness, robustness, LOD, LOQ, stability parameters and found to be within the limits. The method obeys Beer’s law in the concentration range of 150mg/ml – 900mg/ml for Abacavir, 75mg/ml – 450mg/ml for Lamivudine and 12.5mg/ml – 75mg/ml for Dolutegravir with correlation coefficients of 0.9999, 0.9996 and 0.9999 for the three drugs respectively. Forced degradation studies were conducted by exposing the standard drug solution to the various stressed conditions such as acidic, basic, oxidative, thermal, neutral and photolytic conditions. The net degradation for the drugs was found to be within the limits

In December of 2015, the 21st Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCC COP21) took place in Paris. UNFCC is an international environmental agreement on climate change, of which there are 195 States Parties. The U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has warned of the consequences of failing to limit global temperature rises to at least 2 degrees Celsius (above pre-industrial times), highlighting that the impacts would pose a threat to humanity and could lead to irreversible climate change. The meeting in Paris was hailed as a make-or-break opportunity to secure an international agreement on approaches to tacking climate change, a commitment to a longer-term goal of near zero net emissions in the second half of the 21st century, and supporting a transition to a clean economy and low carbon society. This paper discusses the issues and solutions of climate change, development and critical views, the UAE environmental regulation, company's environmental responsibility, and the future of the Paris Convention on Climate Change.

The aim of this study was to formulate a novel non-effervescent gastro-floating drug delivery system of metronidazole using non-effervescent (sublimation and sintering) technique. Granules were prepared by wet granulation technique using varying concentration of Grewia mollis gum; 2,4,6,8% w/w admixed with 1%w/w acrylate methacrylate copolymer (Eudragit® RL100) and extra 2%w/w batch without the addition of Eudragit® RL100. Ammonium bicarbonate (30%w/w) was used as the sublimating agent. The granules were characterized for micromeritic properties. Thereafter, the granules were compressed at 30 units on the arbitrary scale load of a single punch tableting machine and the physicotechnical properties were determined. The metronidazole tablet was then sintered at 70oC for 12 h. Drug-excipient compatibility study was done using Fourier Transform Infra-red Spectroscopy (FTIR). All granules were free flowing and compressible. The metronidazole tablets had no floating lag time showing that tablets floated instantaneously. The in vitro buoyancy test of metronidazole tablet formulated using varying concentrations of Grewia mollis gum and Eudragit® RL100 was > 12 hr. The % maximum release (m∞) and time to achieve it i.e. (t∞) for metronidazole tablets were ≥88% and≥10 h respectively. FTIR studies showed that the excipients and the Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) i.e. metronidazole were compatible. Grewia mollis gum has been investigated in the formulation of gastroretentive floating matrix tablet of metronidazole using sublimation and sintering technique (Non-effervescent method) which may find useful application in sustained release drug delivery particularly for drugs with short biological half-life that require frequent administration.

This study examined the watering regime that will enhance best germination and early seedling growth of Tetrapleura tetraptera. Seeds and seedlings of the plant were subjected to five different watering regimes viz: watering once weekly with 50ml, watering twice weekly with 50ml, watering once weekly with 100ml, watering twice weekly with 100ml and watering with 100ml only on the day of planting (as control for the seeds experiment), no watering (as control for the seedling experiments). The results of the experiment showed that watering once weekly with 100ml was the most effective watering regime for enhancing seed germination. This resulted in 85% germination, followed by the seeds watered twice weekly with 50ml (65%) and watering twice weekly with 100ml (50%). Other watering regimes were less or not effective. While watering twice weekly with 100ml was the most effective watering regime for enhancing seedling growth in this plant. This resulted in significantly highest plant height, number of leaves and broadest leaf area (22.00 cm, 15.00 and 27.51cm2 respectively) at the third month of planting. It also resulted in highest seedling stem girth (3.50 cm) though this was not significantly different from seedling treated with other watering regimes except for seedling treated with no watering which gave 0.20 cm. The results of these studies demonstrated that water supply may be a limitation for raising Tetrapleura tetraptera in the nursery as the soil moisture influenced germinability and early growth of this plant.

India has a strong judicial framework to safeguard people‟s rights, however it is still has a lot of problems of infringement and enforcement of Intellectual Property Rights (IPR). IPR exists in every innovation, but if it gets infringed, can result into infinite business loss for the original creator considering the loss of revenue and human intellect. Hence, it is important for businesses to know and understand the value of IPR, manage them appropriately, protect them adequately to safeguard their investments and efforts and reap the deserved benefits for their own work. Though concern has always been expressed about losses and unfair practices, the recent years have witnessed the lax in protection of IPR. It is advised that by adopting right policies and strategies, IPR can be effectively protected with the help of law enforcement. Be it an individual organization, an industry or even as a nation, IPR as a strategic marketing tool has the potential to create the future where brand, technology, service, people everything can together and become a force for development and market leadership. The scope of IPR is expanding very fast and attempts are being made by original creators to seek protection for their intellectual work. It is also important to understand the enforcement measures available for protecting one‟s business or individual creations. This paper discusses the mode of acquisition, nature of rights, commercial exploitation, enforcement of those rights and protection available against infringement of IPR in India with relevant suggestions for organizations to implement and practice.

There is dearth of information on the gene frequencies of ABO and Rhesus blood groups, secretor status, PTC taste perception and haemoglobin variants in Osun State, Nigeria and previous studies have been based on heterogeneous population. We wanted to have information on the frequency distributions of these traits in Osun State and among a homogeneous population. A total of 555 individuals comprising 308 male and 247 female indigenes of Ore community participated in this study. Participants’ blood samples were typed for ABO, Rhesus blood groups and haemoglobin genotype, saliva samples were analysed for ABH secretory status and PTC taste perception was determined using PTC strips. The frequencies of O, A, B and AB individuals were 41.6%, 30.8%, 21.6% and 6.0% respectively, those of Rh positive and Rh negative were 89.9% and 10.1%, those of secretors and non-secretors were 69.2% and 30.8% respectively while those of tasters and non-tasters were 56.6% and 43.4% respectively. The observed ABO blood group, Rhesus factor, secretor status, PTC taste perception distributions did not differ significantly (p = 0.986, p = 0.943, p = 0.926, p = 0.864 respectively) from those expected under the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The allelic frequencies for ABO were p(A) 0.205, p(B) 0.149 p(r) 0.645, those for Rhesus factor were D(0.682) and d(0.318), those for secretion and non-secretion were Se (0.445) and se(0.555) respectively while those of tasting and non-tasting were T(0.341) and t(0.659) respectively. Four haemoglobin genotypes in the order AA (68.6%) > AS (26.7%) > AC (3.8%) > SS (0.9%) were observed with allelic frequencies A(0.839), S(0.142) and C(0.019). This study has provided information on the frequency distributions of the studied genetic indices in Osun State.

No parent is born a parent rather parenting is a process wherein a parent grows from an individual state to being a parent. Parents shape a child’s whole childhood and in the process of shaping ‘play’ occupies a major role and it fosters the parent child relationship. Play in childhood doesn’t just reflect the current level of development in the child but rather it seems to take forward its effect throughout the life of the child and helps parents understand the child’s perspective easily. For a child, play is not just a play but it is a way of self expression. Playing with the child gives child a sense of being important to the parent this later facilitates a sense of optimism in the child. Being a parent is never an easy role to go about, it calls for a lot of effort often parents are torn between the parenting roles and professional role. Especially in the Indian scenario parents playing with their kids are often valued less and it is not considered as an important element in child development. The advent of technology too has a very important role to contribute to the devaluing of play in today’s world.

Epidermoid cysts of the floor of the mouth are rare lesions thought to be caused by entrapment of epithelial remnants during embryonic fusion. We present the case of large epidermoid cyst with an oral and a submental component in a 71-year-old male who presented with complaints of a mass in the oral cavity and difficulty in chewing and swallowing solid foods for about 2 years. C.T. Scan shows a 110x55x70mm well-circumscribed cystic mass extending from the sublingual area to the mylohyoid muscle. Extra oral approach was used as the tumor was bulky, whole cyst was removed in toto. We are presenting this case because of the giant size of the cyst and the dilemma in surgical approach to the cyst.

Semi-structured questionnaire matrix was used to assess the discernment of participants of sandwich education programs on the programs in five of Nigerian universities. Results revealed that the sandwich system was readily accepted. Participants were of diverse socio-economic classes thus suggesting that the program is accessible to all. Employment was the dominant factor that deprived respondents from regular studentship. The mode of operations and quality of lecture delivery in the programs were comparable to those of the regular programs. The same entry requirements, curricula and personnel, assessment methods, disciplinary measures, welfare services and certificates were awarded. Same recognitions were accorded to the degrees awarded. The tuition fees paid by the sandwich students were higher than those of the regular programs, learning was more stressful and hostel accommodations were indecent and costly. Interactions with other students were poor due to gross lack of time. However, the program constitutes an avenue for self improvement as it offers opportunity to combine work with study. It also offers opportunity for provision of fund to finance the study and enhance participant personal traits such as time management skills, goals setting and hard working abilities.
