Experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of inclusion of liquid corn gluten to broiler diet on growth performance, carcass characteristics and blood parameters. In a randomly complete design two hundreds (200) day old broiler chicks (Ross 308) were divided into 20 groups, ten chicks per group, and five experimental diets were formulated and each diet was given to four replicates from 1-42 days of age. Diets were fed to the chickens from 1-14 (starter), 15-28 (grower) and 29-42 (finisher) days of age.

The main objective is to identify the employability skills required by public and private companies and to conduct a comparative evaluation of how the public and private sector employers perceive the employability skills. Fourteen variables that make up employability skills based on past research were examined in this study. Data were collected through questionnaire on online survey mode that intended to gauge employers’ perceptions. The sample respondent had taken employers from public and private sector.

Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is a term that includes any communication device or application, such as radio, television, mobiles, computer and network, hardware and software, satellite systems and so on, as well as the various services and applications associated with them, such as videoconferencing and distance learning.

The Neo-Assamese Muslims or the immigrant Muslims of the char area (or reverine islands) of Brahmaputra Valley of Assam constitute an important segment of the total population of Assam. As a social group of contemporary Assamese society they are often at the centre of many controversial issues mostly with respect to the question of survival of identity of Assamese speaking people of Assam as a majority community. However, very little is known about the socio-cultural and politico-economic life of this community.

The study included 12 Yersinia ruckeri isolates from rainbow trout with symptoms of yersiniosis. Phenotypic and genotypic analysis of the isolates were performed by conventional microbiological, biochemical and molecular methods. Identification was confirmed by PCR using Y. ruckeri-specific primers and antibiotic resistance profiles were determined. Some isolates were found to be resistant to florfenicol, erythromycin, and oxytetracycline, which are licensed for use in fish farms.

Curcumin has a wide spectrum of biological and pharmacological activities such as anti- inflammatory and anti-cancer activities but its main drawbacks (poor bioavailability and rapid metabolism) have restricted its therapeutic applications. The main strategies used to overcome the physicochemical limitations of curcumin in order to improve its bioavailability are based on loading the compound in nanocarriers, such as liposomes, cyclodextrins and solid lipids. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to formulate Solid lipid nanoparticles of curcumin (CSLNs) to overcome its drawbacks.

Background: It is postulated that Tissue Scurvy is a disorder in a genetically susceptible child in whom the cellular uptake of Vitamin C is inhibited following pancreatic β cell destruction causing Insulin deficiency. Insulin is required for the transfer of Vitamin C and Glucose into the cell for efficient cellular function.  Failure of this process causes Tissue Scurvy which is mistaken for Non-accidental Injury (Shaken Baby Syndrome) with serious consequences for the care giver.

Aim: Anemia in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is related to the chronic inflammatory nature of the disease. The discovery of iron deficiency in patients with anemia of chronic disease (ACD) is of clinical importance because it can prevent unnecessary prescribing of preparations containing iron.

A study on zooplankton diversity of Kangsabati Reservoir was conducted to check the reservoir status and emerge new insights which harbors in it. Shannon-Weaver diversity index, Margalef ,s richness index, Pielou evenness index, Index of dominance were evaluated on zooplankton from Kangsabati Reservoir. A total of 78 species were found in this reservoir. Among these, it comprises 33 species of rotifera, 22 species of cladocera, 16 species of copepoda, 4 species of protozoa, 2 species of ostracoda, 1 species of amphipoda.
