In this study S.rubroviolaceus form very ancient family group Scorpaenidae with structurally diverse group of subphylum Vertebrata was collected form from parangipettai (MAB06)for species identification with inter specific variation among barcoding region sequenceing cytochrome oxidase subunit I ( COI) gene comparing with Australia (EF609452), Tonga (FJ584082), South Africa (GU805008), Iran (HQ149928). The intraspecific variation analysis in NCBI screend for COI sequence form different geographical regions results 99% to 100% identity. BOLD’s identification engine shows 99.68% to 100% similar of 20 specimens with conformation of COI species database tree that S.rubroviolaceus belongs to order Carangidae. The molar concentration of nucleotides in the COI region profiling barcoding valuates that high in thymine content are similar in all the samples, Cytosine as second predominant and guanine as least molar concentration. A helical wheel is ploted to illustrate the properties of alpha helices in proteins. Multiple sequence alignments for DNA sequences similarities query were analysed with Clustal W from EMBL tools.

Recent advances in remote sensing and geographic information has opened new directions for the development of hyperspectral sensors. Hyperspectral remote sensing, also known as imaging spectroscopy is a new technology. Hyperspectral imaging is currently being investigated by researchers and scientists for the detection and identification of vegetation, minerals, different objects and background. Hyperspectral remote sensing combines imaging and spectroscopy in a single system which often includes large data sets and requires new processing methods. Hyperspectral data sets are generally made of about 100 to 200 spectral bands of relatively narrow bandwidths (5-10 nm), whereas, multispectral data sets are usually composed of about 5 to 10 bands of relatively large bandwidths (70-400 nm). Hyperspectral imagery is collected as a data cube with spatial information collected in the X-Y plane, and spectral information represented in the Z-direction. Hyperspectral remote sensing is applicable in many different disciplines. It was originally developed for mining and geology; it has now spread into fields such as agriculture and forestry, ecology, coastal zone management, geology and mineral exploration. This paper presents an overview of hyperspectral imaging, data exploration and analysis, applications in various disciplines, advantages and disadvantages and future aspects of the technique.

Groundwater samples were collected for physico-chemical analysis during pre-monsoon period (May, 2015) from fluoride affected Bhopalpatnam block, District-Bijapur. The major objective of this study was to locate the vulnerable areas of fluoride contamination. The results reveal that the fluoride concentration in the existing groundwater in Bijapur-District is ranging from 0.1 to 3.58 mg/l. It is found that the study area is affected mostly by high Fluoride concentration and is evident from the 59% of total samples collected showing >1.5 mg/l of Fluoride concentration, which is a maximum permissible limit suggested by Bureau of Indian Standard [9].The evaluation of physico-chemical parameters reflects that weathering of granitic rocks are responsible for major ion chemistry of groundwater in Bhopalpatnam area. This study will be helpful in solving problem related to drinking water in the study area.

This Vertical Flow Constructed Wetland (VFCW) system was evaluated for removal efficiency of Ammonium Nitrogen and Nitrate Nitrogen from Gomutra collected from cowsheds of Ujjain. The VFCW of mesocosm scale had a rectangular size and covered an effective area of 1.88 m 2 with a water retention capacity of 0.206 m 3. Two such units were combined together in series for better treatment performance. The VFCW was fabricated in a Reinforced Concrete Cement (RCC) tank below the ground level. The filter media was composed of coarse river sand supported below by coarse Gravel. Three sets were fabricated out of which – The first set was initially planted with locally available grass Phragmites; Second set was planted with Calamus at the rate of 10-12 plants per sq. m. Third set no plantation was there and considered as control. In all the three sets, inlet and outlet arrangements were placed at top and bottom of the RCC tank respectively. The diluted Gomutra (1:4) was kept in dosing tank and allowed to pass through the VFCW; treated effluent was collected from each outlet. Phragmites bed NH 4 –N and NO 3 -N gets reduced by 71.6% and 51.96% respectively from inlet to outlet. Calamus bed causes a maximum reduction of 75.58% of NH 4 –N from inlet to outlet and for NO 3 –N it shows a reduction of 80.35% from inlet to outlet. The control reduces NH 4 –N by 13.94% and NO 3 –N by 14.28% from inlet to outlet. The VFCW results established that This system is highly efficient for Gomutra treatment. Calamus bed system is most efficient in treatment of Gomutra in comparison to all three systems.

Industrialization and urbanization is considered as, one of major threat to pollution of air, soil and water systems. Among these, water pollution is considered as important one. The addition of various pollutants to water resources is considered as major threat for deterioration of water quality and makes it unsuitable for domestic purposes. Out of many water pollutants, dyes are considered as most hazardous for the plants, animals and human beings. So, it is very important to conserve water due to limited availability. In the present study, almond husk was neutraceutical spent used as adsorbent for the removal of dyes from aqueous solutions in batch mode experiments. Parameters like contact time, pH, adsorbent concentration, adsorbent dose were studied. The results show that, almond husk is a very good adsorbent for the removal of dyes from the aqueous medium. The adsorption isotherms like Freudlich and Langmuir model were calculated and found to be favorable.

Investigations were furnished on the toxic effect of mercuric chloride in foetal weights and weight of dam in mice with remarkable recovery effect of Withania somnifera (Ashwagandha) and Essentiale phospholipids (EPL) were observed. Withania somnifera is popularly known as Indian Ginseng and its withanoid content improves the greater gain in body weight, whereas dilinoleoylphosphatidylcholine content of EPL revealed high affinity with lipid contents of blood which consequently increased adipose tissues of body. The animals were treated with 0.5 ppm aqueous mercuric chloride for a period of 7, 14 and 21 days. For the recovery 175 mg of EPL and 35 mg of ashwagandha were administered to mice (already treated with HgCl 2 ) for a period of 7, 14 and 21 days. Daily treatment of HgCl 2 for 7, 14 and 21 days decreased weight of foetuses and dams. Simultaneous administration of EPL and ashwagandha significantly recovered the weight of foetuses and dams. It appears that the protective effects of EPL and ashwagandha against HgCl 2 induced weight alteration is mediated through antioxidative action of EPL and ashwagandha.

Present research study examines the association of pregnancy anxiety and the risk of hypertensive disorder during pregnancy. It is a cross sectional study spread over a period of one and half year. This research is conducted on 200 pregnant women from different maternity homes of Betul & Bhopal District from Madhya Pradesh, India. Levin Pregnancy anxiety scale and SCL -90R (Dergotis,1994) was used to assess the level of pregnancy anxiety among pregnant women having hypertensive disorder or without hypertensive disorder. One way analysis of variance was used for analysis of data to see a significant relationship between pregnancy anxiety and risk of hypertensive disorder among patient group and normal pregnant women’s. The results of the study revealed a significant relationship of pregnancy anxiety among pregnant women having hypertensive disorder in comparison to normal pregnant women’s.

Lichen planus (LP) is an autoimmune chronic mucocutaneous dermatosis that commonly affects skin, mucous membrane, hair follicles & nails. Skin lesions present as recurrent violaceous, keratotic pruritic patches whereas oral lichen planus presents with various pattern. Oral lesions of LP is approximately of 1- 2% of general population while 10-20% of patients demonstrate oral as well as cutaneous lesions. Females are most commonly affected with age group ranging from 40-70 years and showing prevalence rates varying from 0.5% to 2.6% of the world population. The malignant transformation potential of LP into oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is 0.3-3%. Epithelial dysplasia is considered to be a risk factor for malignant transformation into OSCC. The objective of this paper is to report a case of oral lichen planus showing features of dysplasia in a young male patient.
