CONSIDERATION OF TOBACCO DUST AS ORGANIC AMENDMENT FOR SOIL; A SOIL WASTE MANAGEMENT APPROACH Journal of Biological ,Pharmaceutical And Chemical ResearchJournal of Biological ,Pharmaceutical And Chemical Research2394-3076201411 Sarah Shakeel Page No. 1-6 1 Soil is non-renewable reserve that has high frequency of contamination and very low rate of replenishment in this environment. Immense food requirements have evolved the compelled usage of chemical fertilizers to have optimum crop leaf area in minimum time scale that have devastating impacts on biological, physical and chemical properties of the soil. Organic farming is an ultimate solution for the soil management. Tobacco dust an agro-industrial waste can be applied to the soil to recycle those nutrients that plant has taken up. Tobacco dust rich in nitrogen (N) (2.35%), potassium (K) (1.95%) and phosphorous (P) (937 ug/g) provide essential nutrients to the soil and plant. It has abundant quantity of organic content that exceeds the micro macro-organism movement in soil that increase the porosity of soil, increase the infiltration of the oxygen. The tobacco dust increases the pH of the soil, maintain the electrical conductivity (EC) that does not leads to the salinity of the soil. Increase the nitrogen (N) content to various vegetable, house-plants and wheat straws. Increases the biomass content and average survival rate of the tomatoes. Its a good insecticide; prevent the insects and other viruses such as Tobacco mosaic virus that are detrimental for the crops. Furthermore its an eco-friendly management strategy for soil, environment and for human health that does not generates pollution but reduce the organic waste into very useful manner.

A Study of Species Composition of the Derived Savanna Vegetation at Agbeji, Kogi State, Nigeria. Journal of Biological ,Pharmaceutical And Chemical ResearchJournal of Biological ,Pharmaceutical And Chemical Research2394-3076201411 Essien, B.C. [1], Idachaba, S.O. [2], Alege, G.O.[3], Amodu, D.E. [4], Usman, S.S.[5] Page No. 7-16 1 The phytoecological study of the Derived Savanna vegetation at Agbeji, Kogi State, Nigeria, was carried out to determine its species composition. A total of 50 plant species belonging to 23 families (6 Monocotyledons and 17 Dicotyledons) were encountered. The dominant families included those of Poaceae, Asteraceaae, Cyperaceae, Mimosoideae, Apocynaceae, Euphorbiaceae, Caesalpinoideae, Meliaceae and Rubiaceae. All these are characteristics species of forest- savanna ecozones.The dominance of plant species belonging to the grass (Poaceae) family is a valid evidence for confirming the Derived Savanna status of the vegetation of the study area. The presence of Alstonia boonei which is a typical rainforest species reflect the relics of rainforest vegetation. The presence and relative abundance of Prosopis africana, Parkia biglobosa, Dialium guineense and Daniella oliveri reflect fire tolerant and sensitive trees of Savanna vegetation. The co-existence of the various phytoecological indicator species shows the rich floristic diversity and heterogeneity of the vegetation of the study area which could provide a template and baseline information on the sustainable utilization and exploitation of the rich and abundant resources of the Nigerian savanna vegetation.

A Case Study of Wetlands in Pakistan with Special Reference to Balloki wetland Journal of Biological ,Pharmaceutical And Chemical ResearchJournal of Biological ,Pharmaceutical And Chemical Research2394-3076201411 Sarah Shakeel[1], MerajAhsanQureshi[2] Page No. 17-31 1 This study is mainly focused on investigation of threats responsible for the exploitation of wetlands adjacent to Balloki barrage and provides suggestions for conservation so that theyre safe, wise and sustainable use could be ensured. The study showed that management and conservation of wetlands is weak due to lack of awareness both amongst local communities and management authority. Economic benefits are being drawn from Balloki wetlands by local communities and local government at the expense of important resources or values. The water quality of some areas of wetlands is being affected by toxic industrial and municipal wastewater contamination from nearby Ravi River and also as a result of contamination from agricultural runoff from privately owned surrounding land. Water contamination is causing disturbance to waterfowl and aquatic life in the wetlands. Acres of vegetation are harvested annually without paying any regret for ecosystem needs. Use of pastures or surrounding wetland areas as a food source for domestic livestock grazing is posing a threat to site vegetation to some extent. Fishing and hunting of waterfowl are a source of income for local government and local communities. It was suggested to adopt some proposed conservation measures in order to promote the wise and sustainable use of Balloki wetlands.

A REVIEW OF THE SIGNIFICANCE OF ICT IN PHARMACEUTICAL AND HEALTHCARE SYSTEMS Journal of Biological ,Pharmaceutical And Chemical ResearchJournal of Biological ,Pharmaceutical And Chemical Research2394-3076201411 [1]N. B. Okelo, [2]Mollen Akinyi Odero Page No. 32-38 1 Information and communication technology (ICT) is becoming a natural part in both pharmaceutical and healthcare system for delivering and giving accessibility to healthcare. The ICT for Health systems is aimed at raising the acceptance of ICT among medical professionals, decision makers, and citizens. One of the activities to help foster this development has been the documentation of ICT strategies in the partner regions an example is the eHealth system. An eHealth system is a new umbrella field in healthcare, medical informatics and management intended to improve healthcare services and to ensure rapid data exchange through the Internet and other similar ICT means, which are necessary for the provision of healthcare services. The mission of eHealth system implementation in focuses on better accessibility, quality, and continuity of healthcare services for country residents through implementation of information and communication systems. It is expected that these processes would lead to higher level of citizens awareness and involvement in protecting their health; as well as more effective use of available resources for provision and expansion of healthcare services, based on modern IT technologies. For instance, the creation of a common, user-friendly health information service for residents, patients, physicians, and healthcare administrators is the main focus of the vision of the National eHealth system development strategy in Kenya. The strategy is based on experience of good practices in the health system. But direct transferability of these practices is complicated due to laws, politics, financing of the health care sector, computer equipment, competences of medical staff, and, of course, language and cultural differences. This paper presents the applications, advantages and disadvantages of ICT in healthcare systems. Moreover, the ethical and legal practices involving in healthcare systems are also discussed. Finally, the recommendations on the importance of the use of ICT in healthcare system are outlined. Key words: Pharmaceutical, Healthcare, ICT. http://www.jobpcr.com/archive-abs.php?arc=222http://www.jobpcr.com/archive/JOBPCR-2014-1-1-004-33-39.pdf

It causes adverse effects on various body tissues by inducing oxidative stress. Mistletoe leaf extract is been used to treat various aliment in folk medicine till present day. This leaf extract contains antioxidants like flavonoids, vitamin C and E. This study was carried out to investigate effects of mistletoe leaf extract on the microanatomy of prefrontal cortex of Wistar rats exposed to cadmium. Twenty-four adult Wistar rats weighing 150-200g were randomly grouped into four, Groups A, B, C and D each containing six animals. Group A animals were not given any injection. Groups B and C animals were injected intraperitoneally with 14mg of cadmium per kg body weight of animals, while group D were not injected also. Groups C and D were administered orally with 40mg of mistletoe aqueous extract per kg body weight of the animals. Whereas Groups A and B were administered orally equivalent volume of distilled water. After four weeks, the prefrontal cortices were excised for HE and cresyl fast violet staining. Histological section of Group B animals shows the population of both granular and pyramidal cells appeared reduced with dead cell and sparsely stained Nissl substance. Groups A and D histological section shows almost similar cytoarchitecture, the granular and pyramidal cells appeared normal with round and triangular shaped structured respectively whereas Group C shows little densely stained cells with reduced dead cell and the Nissl substance almost similar to Group A.The above findings showed that aqueous extract of mistletoe reduced the adverse effects caused by cadmium on the rat prefrontal cortex.

Page No. 123-131 1 Evaluation of the radionuclides (238U, 232Th and 40K) content to understand the radiation hazards from the waste dumpsite areas to mankind. Natural radioactivity analysis has been carried out for the samples collected from different points of Eliozu reclaimed dumpsite of rivers state, Nigeria. The determined activity concentrations of some sample sites fall within the typical world values with variation in some showing extreme values. To assess the radiological hazard of soils and water samples, the radiological hazard indices such as absorbed dose rate, annual effective dose equivalent (outdoor and indoor) (AEDE), hazard indices (Hex and Hin), activity utilization index (I) and excess life time cancer risk (ELCR) are calculated. The radiological hazard indices are below the internationally recommended values. The present values of indoor and outdoor AEDE is lower than 70 Sv/y and 450 Sv/y for outdoor and indoor in the world average values (Orgun et al., 2007). Average ELCR for all samples is less than the world average (0.29 x 10-3) (Taskin et al., 2009). This indicates that the Eliozus soils and waters are safe for construction purpose and for utilization.

A [1], Hamid, S. A. [2] Babiker, A. G. T[3] Page No. 141-149 1 Orobanche crenata Forsk, a major constraint to faba bean (Vicia faba L.) production, albeit recently introduced into Sudan, is widely distributed and has become a pest of national importance. The present investigation, undertaken at the College of Agricultural Studies, Khartoum North, was set to investigate the effects of seed placement in soil on the parasite virulence and influence on selected faba bean growth attributes. Seeds buried at a depth of 5 cm resulted in the heaviest infestation and highest emergence of the parasite. Seed placement at 10 and 15 cm soil depths did not impair attachment of the parasite, but curtailed emergence. O. crenata from seeds placed in the surface soil displayed late emergence and produced no seeds, whereas those from seeds buried at 5 and 10 cm depths produced considerable number of capsules (16-29 capsules/plant). O. crenata from seeds placed at 15 cm soil depth remained subterranean and produced no seeds. O. crenata infestation from seeds placed in the surface soil had no adverse effects on faba bean growth attributes. However, those from seeds buried at 5, 10 and 15 cm reduced all measured growth attributes and infestation resulting from seeds placed at 5 cm depth was, invariably, the most damaging. The results suggest that in newly infested areas soil inversion or adoption of no-till curtail replenishment of the parasite seed bank and reduce crop damage.

M. Ali[1], Abdeen M. Omer[2] Page No. 154-169 1 The strategy of price liberalisation and privatisation had been implemented in Sudan over the last decade, and has had a positive result on government deficit. The investment law approved recently has good statements and rules on the above strategy in particular to pharmacy regulations. Under the pressure of the new privatisation policy, the government introduced radical changes in the pharmacy regulations. To improve the effectiveness of the public pharmacy, resources should be switched towards areas of need, reducing inequalities and promoting better health conditions. Medicines are financed either through cost sharing or full private. The role of the private services is significant. A review of reform of financing medicines in Sudan is given in this article. Also, it highlights the current drug supply system in the public sector, which is currently responsibility of the Central Medical Supplies Public Corporation (CMS). In Sudan, the researchers did not identify any rigorous evaluations or quantitative studies about the impact of drug regulations on the quality of medicines and how to protect public health against counterfeit or low quality medicines, although it is practically possible. However, the regulations must be continually evaluated to ensure the public health is protected against by marketing high quality medicines rather than commercial interests, and the drug companies are held accountable for their conducts.

This was done by using cosmic ray intensity counts and average real-time bulk parameters of the solar wind speed data. These data was simplified by partitioning the values recorded into equal range of days intervals for easy interpretations. The total of 57,473,339 counts of cosmic ray and a corresponding solar wind speed of 165,423 was recorded. Statistically, the angles of both events were well calculated and recorded. These were clearly shown on the graphs displayed. From the results, between 22nd 24thof June, the eak solar win seed of 90.840 corresponded with that of cosmic ray intensity of 36.240. Also, between 10th 12th June, minimum solar wind speed of 9.780 corresponded with the cosmic ray intensity of 35.640. Though, most of the range of days did not follow any trend at all. This could be due to the anomalous behavior of geomagnetic effect at that period of time.

These symptoms were arthropaty (62,14%), joint bleed (23,48%), haematoma (5,30%), nosebleeds, bleeding gums (4,54%) and ecchymosis (4,54%).According to the type of haemophilia: The severe forms of haemophilia (FVIII or FIX 1%) are 57,08% (115/198) for haemophilia A and 64,63% (47/65) for haemophilia B. Discussion: The diagnosis and classification of the haemophilia are possible in routine. Through the data of literature we propose a diagnostic strategy which makes it possible to consolidate the analysis of the constitutional haemostasis hemorrhagic diseases in particular of the haemophilia. Conclusion: The assumption of responsibility of the haemophilia starts with this stage. Our hope is to be able to extrapolate this study at the national level to set up a national file.

Frequency distribution of Bacterial vaginosis in women referred to health centers in Yazd city Journal of Biological ,Pharmaceutical And Chemical ResearchJournal of Biological ,Pharmaceutical And Chemical Research2394-3076201411 Ali Fattahi Bafghi [1], Abolfazl Hoseizadeh [2] , Abbas Ali Jafari[1], Masoumeh Naghshi Jouzsheri[3] Page No. 179-185 1 Introduction: Vaginal discharges constitute a considerable problem for many women causing discomfort, anxiety affecting womens quality of life and consuming considerable resources. Bacterial vaginosis (BV) was recognized as sexual transmitted diseases (STD).The objective present cross-sectional study was undertaken to Frequency Distribution of Bacterial virginalis in women referred to health centers in Yazd city. Materials Methods: Three of vaginal swabs were obtained for pH testing, KOH and wet mount examination, Gram staining and culture at the time of speculum examination.BV. Results: Finally all of 360 women that observed and tested, 55 patients had BV (15.6%). there was not any coincidence of infection in one patient. Measurement of vaginal pH in the clinic was the single most useful clinical finding for directing empirical therapy. No single specimen was found ideal for all pathogens; a vaginal swab is needed for BV. Conclusions: Vaginaitis our finding manifest less infection in Yazd because infection factors do not like to live in hot and dry environment. This study confirmed previous study that vaginal environment is natural place for BV and everything disturbs it. To achieve STD control in this and similar populations, public health programs must target asymptomatic infections.

Assessing the Effect of Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 on the Growth of Mice Teeth by NMR Journal of Biological ,Pharmaceutical And Chemical ResearchJournal of Biological ,Pharmaceutical And Chemical Research2394-3076201411 Qingwen Ni[1,2] , Shuo Chen[3] Page No. 186-197 1 A wide spectrum of mouse and human disorders affecting tooth and bone biomineralization shows that dentin and bone formation are under strict genetic control. Although the controlling mechanisms of dentinogenesis and osteogenesis require further study, a large body of evidence points to the importance of the matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) participate in a wide variety of extracellular matrix degradation. Currently, we attempt to find that in MMP-9 knock out (KO) mice displayed severe attrition on teeth development. In this study a technique of low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spin relaxation (T2) is applied for assessment of MMP-9 KO mice and wild-type (normal). Then, the spin relaxation decay curve is converted into T2 distribution spectrum. Here, we propose an NMR calibration method the ratio of the amount of fluid in pulp component to the amount of fluid in dentin component obtained from NMR T2 distribution spectra. This ratio method can be used to calibrate the age-growth MMP-9 KO structural changes in teeth while eliminating any variations in size of teeth. Five MMP-9 KO groups from 10 days to 147 days were tested in this study. It is found that the ratio of dental pulp chamber to dentin greatly varies on the early age periods (1 month) than on the elder ages suggesting that MMP-9 is more involved in early stages of tooth development and formation.

Theoretical Analysis of the Acceleration of Runaway Electron within the Earths Atmosphere Journal of Biological ,Pharmaceutical And Chemical ResearchJournal of Biological ,Pharmaceutical And Chemical Research2394-3076201411 Akande P. I[1]., UMAHI, A. E.[2] , Nwosibe Patrick O.[3] PAge NO 198-203 1 The acceleration of runaway electron within the Earths atmosphere is the focus of this work. And we based our concentration on the use of mathematical analysis to examine the focus of this work within the non-relativistic region of the earths atmosphere. This is done by using the equation of a cold electron. This equation is examined with consideration to the frictional force which the electrons undergo in the presence of electric field in the atmosphere.The effect of force on these electrons is also examined. The result shows that the rate of collisions of the electrons increases as the velocity decreases. And this could slow down some atmospheric processes within the nonrelativistic region of the atmosphere. Hence, the spontaneous processes may not adiqeutly occur within this region of the Earths atmosphere. http://www.jobpcr.com/archive-abs.php?arc=242http://www.jobpcr.com/archive/JOBPCR-2014-1-1-023-205-210.pdf

Molecular identification and genetic diversity of apple snail Pila globosa by RAPD assay Journal of Biological ,Pharmaceutical And Chemical ResearchJournal of Biological ,Pharmaceutical And Chemical Research2394-3076201411 A.K.M.Al-Amin Leamon[1],Shad Ebna Rahaman[2], Shamita Mahzabin[1], Abdullah Maruf Rahman Shovo[2] ,Md. Faruque Miah [1] Page No. 207-217 1 This study was carried out for molecular identification and genetic diversity of freshwater snail Pila globosa in Bangladesh. Traditional taxonomy of different species of the genus Pila has always been obscured and unreliable due to their morphological ambiguity. A rapid and cost effective molecular marker, mitochondrial COI gene was used to establish molecular standards for identification while similar bands were seen in all individuals of Pila globosa at the level of 700 bp of lengths. In addition, genetic diversity of freshwater snail Pila globosa was measured on the basis of PCRRAPD assay. Three arbitrary primers were screened and 12 polymorphic loci were found in 7 individuals of this experimental species. The percentage of average values of polymorphic loci and polymorphism information content found 21.23 and 0.875 respectively. Highest and lowest Nei genetic similarity was found 0.500 and 0.105 respectively whereas genetic distance was recorded between 0.667 and 0.9444. Furthermore, the highest and lowest linkage distance was observed 17.0 and 9.0 respectively. A distant relationship among individuals was found by studying phylogenetic dendrogram. Though higher genetic diversity was observed in Pila globosa, however, the population of this species in the nature of Bangladesh is not confirm with good genetic status while only seven individuals were investigated.

CYTOMEGALOVIRUS AND PREGNANCY: CONTRIBUTION OF VIROLOGY LABORATORY Journal of Biological ,Pharmaceutical And Chemical ResearchJournal of Biological ,Pharmaceutical And Chemical Research2394-3076201411 T.Doblali [1], R.Roukhsi[2] Page No. 223-229 1 Cytomegalovirus infection is the most common viral infection reaching the fetus. The infection can be transmitted in utero from maternal primary infection or during reactivation of infection in an HIV-positive mother before pregnancy, which is a situation with high fetal and neonatal risk. The frequency and severity of congenital infection are very different depending on the case and it is therefore essential to make the differential diagnosis between primary infection and reactivation. In this context, there is no gold standard test and the presence of IgM is still too often seen as a test for recent infection. Various techniques have been developed to improve the diagnosis. Among these new approaches, the most used is the measurement of IgGavidity which may exclude a recent infection in many cases. Evidence of fetal infection is provided by the research CMV in amniotic fluid culture and / or PCR; performance of these two techniques in terms of sensitivity and specificity are comparable. However, please keep in mind that if the detection of virus in the amniotic fluid sign congenital infection, it is not possible to assess the severity. Despite this multitude of test there is no legislation in Morocco as well as in developed countries in a systematic search for CMV during pregnancy status.

FREE ENERGY OF MIXING OF THE BINARY LIQUID ALLOYS OF POTASSIUM Journal of Biological ,Pharmaceutical And Chemical ResearchJournal of Biological ,Pharmaceutical And Chemical Research2394-3076201411 L. P. Jaiswal1 , S. K. Chakrabarti2 Page No. 230-235 1 There are a large number of binary liquid alloys which exhibit interesting behaviour as a function of concentration as regards the thermodynamic and electrical properties. The thermodynamic properties of mixing, especially in case of complex forming alloys, are not symmetrical about the equi-atomic compositiondeviating considerably from that of an ideal alloy. Here we have considered two such molten alloys of potassiumpotassium-lead and potassium amalgamand tried to calculate their free energy of mixing at different concentrations of the ingredients by using Florys model. It is a statistical mechanical model based on the size factor of the constituent species of binary alloys. Our results explain the observed asymmetry in the free energy of mixing of the said binary liquid alloys around equi-atomic composition.
