Emissions of pollutants from the atmosphere, whether from artificial or natural sources, fixed or mobile, should be reduced and controlled to ensure satisfactory air quality for population well-being and ecological balance (Semarnat, 2014). Work on the diagnosis of air pollution is of prime importance for the selection and implementation of measures to ensure an adequate harmony between the various activities carried out in a territory in such a way that the environment is not harmed and be compatible the different Socio-economic activities (Cuesta et al., 2006).

Pigmented bacterial isolates was isolated from various environmental samples. Vitek identification analysis and PCR analysis of 16SrRNA amplifying gene showed that this bacteria was related to Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Pigments was extracted with 1N HCl and ethanol.After extraction, pigment was subjected to various chemical analysis including thin layer chromatography, spectrophotometric analysis and gas chromatography –Mass spectrophotometric analysis.

Productivity improvement is inevitable to any firm in order to remain competitive in market place. It enables the firm to meet its obligations to workers and share holders. Various techniques have been proposed for productivity improvement which focus at the core level on the improvement of the process by research and development and physical means of productivity. However, such techniques demand substantial investment in highly trained technical staff and need infrastructures such as plant and equipment.

Snuhi (E. neriifolia Linn.) is an herb extensively used in the Indian system of medicine, is a small deciduous tree of the family Euphorbiaceae.

The world wild prevalence and the number of patients on antihypertensive treatment with diabetes complication is increasing. Present drug utilization study was aimed at finding the trend use of aspirin and lipid lowering agents in hypertensive patients. Hypertensive patients of all age group consenting to contribute their data were enrolled. No personally identifiable information was collected about the patient/prescriber. Data about drug prescribe for hypertension and aspirin and lipid lowering agent was copied.

In this study, total reflection through a slab of vacuum and mercury nano-particle is achieved with negative and near zero magnetic permeability. It is shown that this new design of metamaterial act as an excellent reflector which could be used in many applications. This paper also shows that this optical mirror has negative values for magnetic permeability in the blue range of the visible light and total reflection in this range is achieved.

The field experiment was conducted during 2016 off season using irrigation at Dingam village in Gurumpawo district of Ganye Local Government of Adamawa State, Dingam, Northern Guinea Savannah zone of Nigeria. It was conducted using manure (organic matter) to determine the yield of rice (Oryza sativa). Cianjust pandanwangi (CP) a dwarf cultivar with short grain which is commonly grown in the area. Rainfall range in the area is 757 – 1100mm/annum and temperature ranges from 15.20C – 36.70C.

In recent era, as the energy crisis is going on increasing day by day and high global emission of polluting gases all over the world, it is inevitable to find the new energy resources. The need of energy of primitive man were limited in the form of food which he derived by eating plants and animals. But after the industrial revolution human need more and more energy for multiple tasks. After 1700 AD, the man started using the coal in large quantities along with oil and natural gas after 1870 AD.

This paper tries to address the parameter that affect the temperature in the building canyons of residential neighborhood of Nagpur city. The literature study shows that temperature in building canyon is influenced by neighbourhood geometry and aspect ratio. Experimental investigation by onsite measurements is used to find out the effect of aspect ratio on temperature. The findings reveal that due consideration is required while planning neighbourhoods and designing buildings to minimize the heat gain.
