The present work was aimed towards the evaluation of effects of the physical and chemical factors on laccase production by white rot fungus, Resinicium bicolor ATCC 64897 under submerged condition in shake flask using PlackettBurman design. R.bicolor potentially detoxifies ground tire rubber (GTR) and facilitates growth of Thiobacillus ferrooxidans

A glass plate was subjected to impact by spherical copper and steel projectiles at low velocities. The glass failure features consisted of a central Hertzian cone made up of comminuted glass and a spider web like cracking pattern around the cone with circumferential and radial cracks. The objective of the investigation was to determine if the damag

Islam is one of thevarious religions on the face of this earth which has categorized the type of foods suitable for human consumption. Thus, the integral concept of Islam that governs the quality and sanctity of food is halalantayyaban i.e; lawful and pure.Gelatin, an animal by-product owing to its gelling property finds immense application in the

In the initial phase of the research work quasi-static compression tests were conducted on the expanded polystyrene (EPS) crushable foam for material characterisation at low strain rates (8.3x10-3~8.3x10-2 s-1) to obtain the stress strain curves. The resulting stress strain curves compared well with the ones found in the literature. Numerical analy

According to the Islamic slaughtering guidelines, swift slaughtering is one of the criteria for good slaughter. In this study, stunning effectiveness in halal poultry meat production was analysed in response to the time needed for the chickens to become insensible upon neck cutting (Td) and the induction of myofiber apoptosis. Td was recorded using

Objectives: To compare patients’ perception of their diabetic control, their knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) of their diabetic management, HbA1C and other metabolic parameters in patients seen at a primary care centre (PCC) and tertiary hospital (TH). Methods: This was a cross sectional study involving age and sex-matched 146 patients from

With the growing demands of Industrial Control Systems (ICS) in all over the world, the industries such as water, electric and gas are using real time infrastructures for communication between filed devices connected within "networks such as using Local Area Network (LAN). Wide Area Networks (WAN)" or/and over internet to fulfill the requir

This paper investigates the feasibility of using photoplethysmographic (PPG) signal for heart rate variability (HRV) using different physiological conditions. In this paper, we have analyzed four physiological conditions i.e.; sitting, standing, laying and jogging. The Easy Pulse sensor module was used to pass the signal sensed by the optical senso

Illumination variation that span globally and locally across the facial surface is one of the most important aspect in designing a robust face recognition system. The illumination variations due to changes in lighting conditions could produce different shape of shading on the face thus deforming the facial features. The effect of these variations i
