The focus of this work was on experimental measurements and numerical computations of Pimelic acid solubility in water, ethanol, and their binary combination. At temperatures ranging from (293.15 to 303.15) K, the solubility of Pimelic acid in pure solvents and their binary mixtures was evaluated using the equilibrium measurement method. To evaluate the data quality, the experimental results were correlated to the Apelblat equation. The Apelblat model's solubility correlations were in good accord with experimental data.

A study was conducted to investigate the effect of leaf litterfall of shelterbelt, Azadirachta indica, Ailanthus excels and Prosopis cineraria and control (devoid of trees) on available nutrients and organic carbon pools of soil from 3 distances (2, 5 and 10m) The total litterfall during the study period ranged between 1712 and 4126kg/ha and it was found maximum in the month of January and it was minimum in February in different plantations. Annual litterfall showed considerable variation among different plantations. Litter accumulation under the different plantations canopy was highest in the shelterbelt followed by Prosopis cineraria and lowest in the Azadirachta indica. There was improvement in soil organic carbon, dissolved organic carbon, microbial biomass carbon, available macro (N, P and K) and micronutrients (Zn, Fe, Mn and Cu) tree species when compared to field without trees. Significant improvement in soil organic carbon (0.14 to 0.26 %), available N (55.9 to 116.6kg/ha) P (9.6 to 13.6kg/ha) and K (188.9 to 248.3kg/ha) was observed under these tree species compared to field without trees. The content of Zn, Cu, Fe and Mn and was 15, 25, 40 and 51 percent, respectively higher under these tree species than the control field. The amount of nutrients returned to the soils through litter was significantly highest at 2m distance under different plantations. The present study indicated that these available nutrients and organic carbon pools improved significantly across the different land use system. Due to intensive cultivation and monocropping, the fertility of soil is deteriorating day by day. Simultaneously it is creating a pressure on the natural resources like soil because the population is increasing day by day. Therefore, it is wise to use degraded and problematic soil for cultivation. Agroforestry systems have been recognized as an alternative for the rehabilitation of degraded areas and it provides ecosystem services and reduces human impacts on natural forests (Nair et al., 2009). Tree based land use systems have special role in reclamation of wastelands, use of poor-quality waters, organic carbon build up and moderating climate change related risks. In areas of Haryana and Rajasthan trees like Prosopis cineraria, Azadirachta indica and Ailanthus excels are more beneficial under adverse environments due to their drought hardiness, resistance to inhospitable climate and assured economic returns. These tree species can be grown on soils having poor fertility, moisture deficit and high soil temperature.

The medicinal plants are important source for pharmaceutical manufacturing. Medicinal plants & herbal medicines account for a significant percentage of the pharmaceutical market. There is increasing awareness and general acceptability of the use of herbal drugs in today’s medical practice although most of these applications are not scientific. Herbal medicines are not a simple task since many factors influence the biological efficacy and Reproducible therapeutic effect. So it is necessary to improve safety of herbal drugs by developing certain quality control parameters and by following the WHO guidelines for herbal medicine WHO specific criteria for assessing the safety, efficacy, and quality of herbal medicines are critical for global harmonisation. The term “standardisation” refers to the assurance of a drug’s identification, quality, and purity at all stages of its life cycle. This study examines the need for and breadth of herbal medicine standardisation techniques for optimal quality assurance.To provide a platform for the quality control of traditional herbal medicines and to discover novel therapeutics composed of multiple chemical compounds, it is necessary to combine chemistry, pharmacology, medicine, and even statistics.

Nursing is dynamic by its own way and this dynamism give rise to various trends. Sound empirical knowledge is the base of nursing as in any other profession. This knowledge is the base for all the innovations which in turn evolve as trends in nursing. The trends in nursing education are the cornerstone for the dynamic nature of nursing profession. The article outlines various trends in nursing education with reference to India. Thus, the software can be seen as part of an abstract rationality, whereas how it is deployed by nurses is based on a practical rationality that places practice and experience first and sees the technology and protocols as tools.

Many childhood diseases are diagnosed a couple of years after birth. This article presents a similar condition resulting in regression and slowing down of brain growth after a normal course of development during neonatal period. Rett syndrome is such a condition that presents itself after some months of apparently normal development. This disease is usually manifested with deceleration of head growth, loss of purposeful hand movements which are replaced by hand wringing or handwashing stereotypes. This is also followed by marked mental retardation with severe impairment in expressive and receptive language skills. The child presented in this case report had a normal development till 18 months of age after which she developed delay in gross motor development and further in other areas of development. The child is now on symptomatic treatment and presents with recurrent respiratory tract infections which require hospitalization.

Gymnema sylvestre (Gs) is a well proven anti diabetic plant and used in Indian system of medicine for long period. A new variant of Gs was identified having hairy leaf. This Gs hairy variant species was subjected for pharmacognostical studies and screened for phytochemical analysis and correlated with the previous work done normal non hairy species. The leaves were analyzed for macroscopic and microscopic characteristics by taking microtome sectioning and stained for viewing in slides. The dried powdered leaf was subjected to fluorescent study using chemical reagents and viewed under visible and UV light to study the coloring pattern of the powdered particles interacting with the reagents. The powder was subjected for physicochemical studies using Indian Ayurvedic Pharamacopoeia procedure. The different extractions were done by using 100%, 50% ethanol and water. These extracts were subjected for preliminary qualitative analysis, quantitative estimation of terpenoides, alkaloids and marker compound Glycemnic acid.

The establishment and development of new pathogenic races is a constant problem, because chemical pest control is both expensive and ineffectual. Nanomaterials have lately been proposed as a potential alternative for reducing plant diseases and crop protection. Agricultural methods usually include the systematic administration of a variety of active chemicals at varied dosages and frequency, resulting in a variety of selective regimes. Crop protection is critical in the production of food all over the world. Nanotechnologies are being employed more and more to maintain traditional crops and to develop novel crops with superior qualities. Pollen magnetofection and gene nanocarriers are two nanobiotechnologies that are now being used to improve pest, weed, and disease management, as well as agricultural genetic modification. Traditional crop pest, weed, and disease management has been greatly enhanced thanks to a better understanding of the synthesis of nanomaterials with extraordinary capabilities. Plant germination, growth, and crop protection have all been proved to benefit from nanoparticles in agriculture. The enhanced specific surface area of nanomaterials benefits fertilisers and insecticides. Nanomaterials have also been developed for a variety of applications such as medical, medication delivery, electronics, fuel cells, solar cells, food, space, and so on. This chapter outlines recent attempts the use of nanotechnologies in agriculture in novel ways that could assist meet rising food demand while also ensuring environmental sustainability.
