Lactation persistency is a critical economic factor in the dairy cow production system. It refers to a cow's ability to continue producing milk after it has reached its peak. Milk yield is an important trait in dairy industry; thus, information regarding this phenotype is essential to measure the productivity of a farm. This article aims to estimate the persistency of milk yield in lactation first of various grades of ½ Jersey × ½ Red Sindhi, ¼ Jersey × ¾ Red Sindhi, 3/8 Jersey × 5/8 Red Sindhi, 1/8 Jersey ×7/8 Red Sindhi crossbred of cows. Data was collected from pedigree cum history sheet. Milk yield from the first lactations (L1) of 83 cows and 498 observations of various grades of Jersey x Red Sindhi crossbred cows were recorded in kilograms. Samples were collected up to six months. The mean of milk yield for six months in L1were 168.93±6.46 kg of ½ Jersey × ½ Red Sindhi crosses, 176.72±4.73Kg of ¼ Jersey × ¾ Red Sindhi crosses,158.64±10.66 kg of 3/8 Jersey × 5/8 Red Sindhi crosses, 157.63±4.86kg of 1/8 Jersey ×7/8 Red Sindhi crosses, respectively. The peak of milk yields was achieved at the second month of the lactation for L1 were 190.78-274.63 kg of ½ Jersey × ½ Red Sindhi crosses, 162.29-310.71 kg of ¼ Jersey × ¾ Red Sindhi crosses, 155.16-267 kg of 3/8 Jersey × 5/8 Red Sindhi crosses, 142.32-283.99 kg of 1/8 Jersey ×7/8 Red Sindhi crosses, respectively. The persistency of milk yield for L1 were 2.51±0.16 of ½ Jersey × ½ Red Sindhi crosses, 2.30 ± 0.09 of ¼ Jersey × ¾ Red Sindhi crosses, 2.62±0.22 of 3/8 Jersey × 5/8 Red Sindhi crosses, 2.58±0.14 of 1/8 Jersey ×7/8 Red Sindhi crosses respectively. Milk yield persistency is the ability of animal to maintain milk production after reaching its peak yield during lactation period. The more persistent dairy cattle show better performance. The present study concluded that persistency of cows could be useful in selecting those have the higher estimates in order to improve the productivity of the herds.

Crop growth and productivity has for the most part been at risk of varied a-biotic and organic phenomenon stresses that are solely set to be combined thanks to world climate change. So developing improved varieties and planning newer approaches for crop improvement against stress tolerance became a priority now-a-days. Millets have varied nutrition qualities, and have justifiably been known as “nutri-cereals”. The bulk of the world’s millet crop is created by India, Nigeria, Niger, Mali, Burkina Faso, Chad, and China. millet (Eleusine coracana (L.) Gaertn), very little millet (Panicum sumatrense Philip Roth ex Roem. & Schult.), foxtail (Setaria italica (L.) P. Beauvois) and proso millet (Panicum miliaceum L.) are most ordinarily found species among varied millet varieties. In India, finger millet occupy the biggest space below cultivation among the tiny millets. This minor millet includes crucial amino acids viz isoleucine, leucine, methionine and phenyl alanine which can be poor in other starchy meals. It is likewise recognized for numerous fitness advantages inclusive of anti-diabetic, anti-tumerogenic, atherosclerogenic effects, antioxidant, which can be specially attributed due to its polyphenol and nutritional fiber contents. Being indigenous minor millet it's far used within side the instruction of diverse ingredients each in herbal and malted forms. Single colonies have been isolated through enriching in MRS broth and subsequent streaking on MRS agar plate. Total ten isolated micro organism have been diagnosed. All isolated strains have been characterised for probiotic houses consisting of acid and salt tolerance, phenol tolerance, sugar fermentation, lactose fermentation. Acid tolerance check changed into achieved at pH 2, 4, 6, 8 in MRS broth. Salt tolerance check changed into achieved at 2%, 4% 6% and 8% NaCl in MRS broth. Phenol tolerance check changed into achieved in MRS broth with 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3% and 0.4% phenol concentration. Sugars consisting of glucose, fructose, sucrose, xylose and lactose have been used for fermentation tests. Results of fermentation check confirmed that maximum isolates fermented all sugars. This observe indicated that isolated species from finger millet batter have capability probiotic houses. All the isolates fermented glucose and lactose with evolution of gas. 90%, 80% and 70% of isolates fermented xylose, fructose and sucrose respectively. The probiotic bacteria were capable of fermenting different sugars and end product is lactic acid. Selected isolates can survive at low pH as well as in high salt concentrations and low concentrations of phenol. Further study is needed to find specific probiotics with specific benefit from finger millet based fermented batter.

This study pursues to determine the accuracy of the groundwater level fluctuations forecasted at the Kanpur district of India using artificial neural networks (ANNs). The results indicated that performance of multilayer perceptron (MLP) based neural network (M-3, architecture 4-18-1) is satisfactory in the groundwater level fluctuations forecasting. The performance assessment shows that the MLP model performs significantly better. The uncertainty analysis shows that, input of Absent- RF and Absent- ERF, Absent- GWt-1, and Absent- GWt-5 were found more sensitive for GWFs forecasting and can’t ignore as input combination & input of Absent- WS and RH were found less sensitive for GWFs forecasting and may be discarded as input combination for GWFs forecasting.

The study was conducted in Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 8 treatments with three replication each. The treatments were T1 Molvom Pineapple juice (700ml) + Sugar (200g) + Wine yeast (1.5g)+ 2.5ml Ginger extract, T2 Molvom Pineapple juice (700ml) + Sugar (200g) + Wine yeast (1.5g)+ 5ml Ginger extract, T3 Molvom Pineapple juice (700ml) + Sugar (200g) + Wine yeast (1.5g) + 7.5ml Ginger extract, T4 Molvom Pineapple juice (700ml) + Sugar (200g) + Wine yeast (1.5g) + 10ml Ginger extract, T5 Molvom Pineapple juice (700ml) + Sugar (200g) + Wine yeast (1.5g) + 12.5ml Ginger extract, T6 Molvom Pineapple juice (700ml) + Sugar (200g) + Wine yeast (1.5g) + 15ml Ginger extract, T7 Molvom Pineapple juice (700ml) + Sugar (200g) + Wine yeast (1.5g) + 17.5ml Ginger extract, T8 Molvom Pineapple juice (700ml) + Sugar (200g) + Wine yeast (1.5g)+ 20ml Ginger extract. Total soluble solids, pH and Specific Gravity decreased while the alcohol content, Acidity and the Sensory Qualities increased with increasing length of fermentation. From the above treatments, it is concluded that treatment T8 was found superior in respect of the parameters like Total Soluble Solids, Alcohol content, Specific gravity. In terms of Acidity, pH the best was found in treatment T7. In terms of Colour and Appearance the best was found to be treatment T7. And in terms of Taste, Aroma and Overall acceptability was found best in T8.Since pineapple fruit is rich in sugars, minerals, and polyphenols, hence production of wine or cider may serve as a viable method to preserve the nutritional and antioxidant properties of the fruit. The production of wine or cider from this fruit can also help increase wine and cider variety and reduce post-harvest losses. This study showed that acceptable cider can be produced from pineapple and extract of ginger using yeast especially Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

The treatments were T1 Molvom Pineapple juice (700ml) + Sugar (200g) + Wine yeast (1.5g)+ 2.5ml Ginger extract, T2 Molvom Pineapple juice (700ml) + Sugar (200g) + Wine yeast (1.5g)+ 5ml Ginger extract, T3 Molvom Pineapple juice (700ml) + Sugar (200g) + Wine yeast (1.5g) + 7.5ml Ginger extract, T4 Molvom Pineapple juice (700ml) + Sugar (200g) + Wine yeast (1.5g) + 10ml Ginger extract, T5 Molvom Pineapple juice (700ml) + Sugar (200g) + Wine yeast (1.5g) + 12.5ml Ginger extract, T6 Molvom Pineapple juice (700ml) + Sugar (200g) + Wine yeast (1.5g) + 15ml Ginger extract, T7 Molvom Pineapple juice (700ml) + Sugar (200g) + Wine yeast (1.5g) + 17.5ml Ginger extract, T8 Molvom Pineapple juice (700ml) + Sugar (200g) + Wine yeast (1.5g)+ 20ml Ginger extract. Total soluble solids, pH and Specific Gravity decreased while the alcohol content, Acidity and the Sensory Qualities increased with increasing length of fermentation. From the above treatments, it is concluded that treatment T8 was found superior in respect of the parameters like Total Soluble Solids, Alcohol content, Specific gravity. In terms of Acidity, pH the best was found in treatment T7. In terms of Colour and Appearance the best was found to be treatment T7. And in terms of Taste, Aroma and Overall acceptability was found best in T8.Since pineapple fruit is rich in sugars, minerals, and polyphenols, hence production of wine or cider may serve as a viable method to preserve the nutritional and antioxidant properties of the fruit. The production of wine or cider from this fruit can also help increase wine and cider variety and reduce post-harvest losses. This study showed that acceptable cider can be produced from pineapple and extract of ginger using yeast especially Saccharomyces cerevisiae.","PeriodicalId":13777,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences","volume":"24 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74053803","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The biological activity shown by fungal pigments is of significance for broadening their applications. In the current research, both cellular and secretory pigments produced by Aspergillus nidulans were separated by thin-layer chromatography (TLC) and detected by UV-Visible spectroscopy. The fractions were examined for their biological functions in terms of antimicrobial and antioxidant activities. The findings revealed that the crude cellular pigments had absorption maxima at 458 nm and 521 nm, corresponding to orange and red pigments respectively. The crude secretory pigments showed absorption maxima at 464 nm, representing orange pigments. In TLC, eight pigment fractions were separated in cellular pigment extract whereas nine pigment fractions were observed in secretory pigment extract. The crude cellular pigment extract was exclusively effective against Bacillus subtilis. The crude secretory pigment extract presented antibacterial activity on B. subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus. The crude cellular pigment extract had slight inhibition of Candida albicans whereas the crude secretory pigment extract showed inhibition against both Candida albicans and Cryptococcus sp. In the bioautography, the crude secretory pigment displayed inhibition activity on all the tested fungi whereas the crude cellular pigment extract revealed inhibition activity only against Curvularia lunata. Both cellular and secretory pigments showed antioxidant activity in a dose-dependent manner. The potential pigments with biological activity are promising candidates in the food and pharmaceutical industry.

Successful surgical management of a combined case of flail chest and humerus fracture in an 8 month old female pomeranian dog is described. The patient was presented at Multi Speciality Veterinary Hospital Kudappanakkunnu with a history of wild boar attack an hour previously. On physical examination a lacerated wound with paradoxical movement on breathing was seen over the distal third of 3rd to 5th ribs on the left chest wall making it a case of flail chest. On radiographic examination complete fracture on distal third of 3rd and 4th ribs were observed along with pneumothorax beneath the region of wound. There was also a complete mid-shaft transverse fracture on the left humerus which was confirmed by radiography. Under general anaesthesia the fractured edges of the ribs were apposed using sutures and the pneumothorax was eliminated. The complete mid-shaft transverse fracture was corrected using retrograde intramedullary pinning. The patient made a dramatic recovery from the very next day after the surgery itself and complete healing of wound took by 18 days post surgery. This case point towards the need of immediate surgical intervention for a case of flail chest and proper care of the patient post operatively.
