The effects of PVK as fillers on the characteristics and properties of sagu starch solution and films, the antimicrobial, water vapour permeability and UV-VIS transmission of the sagu stach were investigated in this work. The sagu starch filled with PVK was homogenized and incorporated into sagu starch solutions at different concentrations. Introduction of PVK fillers to sagu starch solutions significant increased the viscosity of the solution and significantly decreased the permeability of the films to water vapour. Solubility to different solvents, moisture content was decreased. The sagu starch solutions filled with PVK nanoparticles had 30% UV transmittance. The sago starch films filled with PVK exhibited excellent antimicrobial activities against S.aureus and E. coli. These properties suggest that the prepared biocomposites has the potential as filler in starch based products for use as active materials in packaging and in pharmaceutical and textile industries.
RECYCLING OF WASTE: A TOOL FOR ENVIRONMENTAL AND SUSTAINABLE NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT PRODUCTION OF ALUM [2KAl(SO4)2.12H2O(S)] FROM ALUMINIUM CANS.
Modern beverage containers are usually composed of either aluminium, in the form of aluminium cans, or polyethylene terephthalate (PETE), the clear plastic beverage bottles. Aluminium is one of the most indestructible materials used in metal containers. The average "life" of an aluminium can is about one hundred years. Although aluminium is the third most abundant element in the earth's crust, the expense of extracting it from common soils is too expensive and the major source is the ore bauxite, the hydrated form of aluminium oxide, Al2O3⋅2H2O. Aluminium metal is not consumed rapidly by corrosion; the amount of scrap aluminium grows rapidly while the available supply of raw materials for the manufacture of aluminium decreases. Environmental problems thus created are typical of those of several different metals. One obvious solution to the problem is to recycle the used fabricated aluminium can into other useful products or into aluminium compounds. This research illustrate a chemical process was used that transforms scrap aluminium into a useful chemical compound, potassium aluminium sulfate dodecahydrate, KAl(S04)2•12H20, commonly called "alum". The percentage yield of 46.7% was obtained using 2g of the aluminium waste cans.. Alum is widely used in the dyeing of fabrics, in the manufacture of pickles, in canning some foods, as a coagulant in water purification and waste-water treatment plants, and in the paper industry. The study also provides an interesting energy saving method of reducing environmental pollution via conversion of waste to wealth.
This study investigated six apparently healthy female dogs as experimental animals for the cardiovascular response and the changes in the hematological parameters subjected to ovariohysterectomy. The animals were examined prior to surgery through heart rate evaluation and complete blood count examination. Heart rate evaluation and Complete Blood Count (CBC) examination were performed before, during and after ovariohysterectomy. A non-parametric test (averages and percentages) were used to compare the variation of heart rate and blood parameters. Results of the study showed that there was a slight reduction of the heart rate during the surgical operation and a significant numerical difference in the values were observed in the blood parameters (RBC, WBC, PCV, MCV, Platelets, Lympocytes and Segmented neutrophils) throughout the experimental period. Red Blood Cell (RBC) count was affected during the intra-operative period slightly below the normal range. Packed Cell Volume (PCV) was also reduced during surgery, but the reduction is still within the normal range. Reduction in the Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV) was also observed, however, not exceeding beyond the normal range. White Blood Cell (WBC) count however, was observed to be elevated during the surgery but the values of segmented neutrophils were within the normal range. The results of the study revealed that ovariohysterectomy really trigger intra-operative stress. Therefore, a careful evaluation of the patient prior to the surgical operation should be given utmost consideration. Surgical patients with abnormal blood parameters should be stabilized first before proceeding with the said surgical operation. During the intra-operative period, it is highly recommended that the patient should be under intravenous fluid infusion to maintain its homeostasis and acid-base balance.
The objective of the present study was to associate blood glucose level with the parrot as pet. 130 subjects were take part in this study. All were the students of Bahauddin Zakariya University, Multan, Pakistan. Average blood glucose level for non- diabetic's strong person should be between 3.9 and 7.1mmol/L. When level of glucose in our blood is increased it is also called the hyperglycemia. Some parrots are omnivores. About 21 different species of cockatoo parrots are present in all over the world. It was concluded from present study that normal blood glucose level have no scientific impact to parrot as pet.
