In this work we have studied the electronic properties of VO2 by employing the density functional theory (DFT). The CASTEP module was used for the simulation. 2x2x1 lattice of VO2 was used for study of the band structure and density of state. The electronic properties change significantly on doping the sample with Ag. Also, when Ag is doped in different quantities in VO2 , the bad gap is not the same as that of pure VO2 and the conductivity and dielectric constant also changes.

The principal constituent of tea, which is responsible for all the properties, is the alkaloid caffeine. Theanine is an amino acid found only in tea leaves, which imparts a pleasantly sweet taste to tea. It is degraded to glutamic acid and has relaxation effects in humans. Caffeine is a bitter, white crystalline xanthine alkaloid and a stimulant drug. It is found in varying quantities in the seeds, leaves, and fruit of some plants, where it acts as a natural pesticide that paralyses and kills certain insects feeding on the plants, as well as enhancing the reward memory of pollinators. It is also found in coffee, tea, cola, guarana, mate, and other products. Caffeine - containing products have been consumed for hundreds of years for their pleasant flavour and stimulating effects. Caffeine is one of the most commonly used stimulants among athletes. In this paper we have discuss the extraction of caffeine from our local tea leaves, Namar Jongphi and Nalari Gold tea leaves available in the market. The liquid-liquid extraction method was followed for the extraction of caffeine and the estimation of the amount of caffeine was calculated and estimated by iodometric method.
茶的主要成分是生物碱咖啡因,它决定了茶的所有特性。茶氨酸是一种只存在于茶叶中的氨基酸,它给茶带来一种宜人的甜味。它被分解为谷氨酸,对人体有放松作用。咖啡因是一种苦味的白色晶体黄嘌呤生物碱,也是一种兴奋剂。在一些植物的种子、叶子和果实中发现了不同数量的双酚a,它作为一种天然杀虫剂,可以麻痹和杀死以植物为食的某些昆虫,同时增强传粉者的奖励记忆。它也存在于咖啡、茶、可乐、瓜拉那、马黛茶和其他产品中。含咖啡因的产品因其令人愉悦的味道和刺激的效果而被食用了数百年。咖啡因是运动员中最常用的兴奋剂之一。本文讨论了从市场上销售的纳玛琼披和纳拉里金茶叶中提取咖啡因的方法。采用液液萃取法提取咖啡因,用碘量法计算估算咖啡因的含量。

The human brain is more engaged by viewing images than by reading lists of facts. Whenever we try to view, edit, or create an image, we actually have our own interaction with the visual expression in the image. Although everyone has a unique editing style, it is a common practice in the photography industry. Photo editing enables users to enhance and stylize images in ways that would be impossible in-camera. It is much more difficult without image editing application. This paper presents an approach for the development of Windows application that can be a full-scale photo editing tool. Our application is easy to use and it also helps to store images via different extensions. The various image editing libraries used to develop this application are explained here. Different image editing features such as cropping, drawing, etc. help all type of users to use the application efficiently. The detailed explanation of these features are provided. This paper shows how image processing can be used to edit images by using various computer vision algorithms to perform several operations on an image. However, there are certain image editing applications available, but photosav is a simple and comprehensive windows application in which maximum features are clubbed together for the users
人类的大脑更专注于观看图像,而不是阅读事实列表。每当我们试图查看、编辑或创建图像时,我们实际上都与图像中的视觉表达有自己的互动。虽然每个人都有自己独特的编辑风格,但这在摄影行业是一种普遍的做法。照片编辑使用户能够以在相机中无法实现的方式增强和个性化图像。如果没有图像编辑应用程序,则困难得多。本文提出了一种开发Windows应用程序的方法,该应用程序可以成为一个全面的照片编辑工具。我们的应用程序易于使用,它也有助于通过不同的扩展存储图像。这里解释了用于开发此应用程序的各种图像编辑库。不同的图像编辑功能,如裁剪,绘图等,帮助所有类型的用户有效地使用该应用程序。对这些特性进行了详细的解释。本文展示了如何使用各种计算机视觉算法对图像执行几种操作来使用图像处理来编辑图像。然而,有一些图像编辑应用程序是可用的,但是photosav是一个简单而全面的windows应用程序,它为用户提供了最大的功能

Paris polyphylla Smith is an erect and herbaceous plant. It has rich chemical constituents such steroidal saponins, phytosterols, flavonoids, and alkaloids that possess antimicrobial and anticancer activities. In the current investigation, we examined the effect of different solvents in the extraction yield and further purification via column chromatography. The ground powdered rhizomes of P. polyphylla was extracted with 100% hexane, 100% ethyl acetate, 70% ethanol, and 70% methanol. The extracts were filtered, evaporated using a rotary evaporator, concentrated, and measured. Subsequently, the solvent with high extraction yield was further purified using column chromatography. Ethanol produced the highest extraction yield as compared to the other solvents. About 30 fractions were eluted which was pooled into four fractions based on the Rf values and bands observed through thin layer chromatography (TLC) analysis.

The Shillong Plateau is characterised by multiple phases of deformation and number of prominent sets joints/fracture system. The Southern Shillong Plateau unlike the northern part is highly dissected by the scarp faces which are mostly erosional. The area is characterised by deep incising river networks which cuts across many lithological units. To understand the factors influencing the drainage characteristic of the area and landscape development, the present study has been done in context of morphometry, geomorphology and geology of the drainage basin. Fifteen sub basins of 4th order have been selected from the Um Sohrynkew River basin. Drainage morphometry, indices of active tectonism, geology and tectonics and landform features have been worked out for better evaluation of drainage characteristics. The study area forms part of the Meghalaya Precambrian province of upper Proterozoic age. The southern border of the Shillong Plateau is demarcated by Dauki (Also known as Dawki) fault which is a prominent structural lineament. It consists of at least four E-W trending normal faults with occasional reversal. The segment of the Dauki fault in the study area is believed to be active. The present study focuses on the drainage network and the landscape development of the study area where a very strong relationship has been observed between the lithology and structure together with the tectonic activity influencing the drainage pattern in the area.
石龙高原具有多期变形和多套突出的节理断裂系统的特点。与北部不同,南西隆高原被以侵蚀为主的陡坡面高度分割。该地区的特点是深切割的河流网络,穿过许多岩性单元。为了解影响该地区排水特征和景观发展的因素,本研究在流域形态、地貌和地质背景下进行了研究。从乌姆索林克河流域中选取了15个4级子盆地。为更好地评价流域特征,制定了流域形态计量学、活动构造指标、地质构造和地貌特征。研究区是上元古代梅加拉亚前寒武纪省的一部分。石龙高原南部边界以道基断裂(又称道基断裂)为界,是一个突出的构造剖面。它由至少四条东西向正断层组成,偶有反转。研究区内的道基断裂段被认为是活动性断裂。本研究的重点是研究区域的水系网络和景观发展,研究区域的岩性和构造以及影响该区域水系格局的构造活动之间存在很强的关系。

This paper addresses the different methods of estimation of the unknown parameter of one parameter A(α) distribution from the frequentist point of view. We briefly describe different approaches, namely, maximum likelihood estimator, least square and weighted least square estimators, maximum product spacing estimators, Cram´er-von Mises estimator and compare those using extensive numerical simulations. Next, we obtain parametric bootstrap confidence interval of the parameter using frequentist approaches. Finally, one real data set has been analysed for illustrative purposes.

Protein kinases are key regulators of cell function that constitute one of the largest and most functionally diverse gene families. By adding phosphate groups to substrate proteins, they direct the activity, localization and overall function of many proteins, and serve to orchestrate the activity of almost all cellular processes. The main protein kinases consist of protein kinase A (PKA), protein kinase B (PKB), and protein kinase C (PKC) and are distinguished from each other by the different intracellular second messengers involved in their regulation and by the selective substrates they use. They all have a binding site for Mg2+-ATP (phosphate donor) and for substrate protein as well as various regulatory sites. We formulated to compare the binding capacity of protein kinases at the active site to allosteric sites. By comparing the active site and allosteric site of the protein kinases – A, B and C, using molecular docking it was found that in most of the cases the binding energy is high when an inhibitor binds to an active site as compared to the allosteric site. This comparison gave us an understanding of the interaction and inhibition of compounds to protein kinases in order to inhibit the activity of protein kinase A, B and C. It was concluded that for inhibiting the protein kinase function such as cell division and proliferation, binding of inhibitor to the allosteric site will be more effective.
蛋白激酶是细胞功能的关键调节因子,构成了最大和功能最多样化的基因家族之一。通过在底物蛋白上添加磷酸基团,它们指导许多蛋白的活性、定位和整体功能,并协调几乎所有细胞过程的活性。主要的蛋白激酶包括蛋白激酶A (PKA)、蛋白激酶B (PKB)和蛋白激酶C (PKC),通过参与它们调控的不同细胞内第二信使和它们所使用的选择性底物来区分它们。它们都有Mg2+-ATP(磷酸供体)和底物蛋白的结合位点以及各种调节位点。我们制定了比较蛋白激酶在活性位点和变构位点的结合能力。通过比较蛋白激酶A、B和C的活性位点和变构位点,利用分子对接发现,在大多数情况下,抑制剂与活性位点的结合能比与变构位点的结合能高。通过比较,我们了解了化合物与蛋白激酶的相互作用和抑制作用,从而抑制蛋白激酶A, B和c的活性。我们得出结论,对于抑制蛋白激酶的功能,如细胞分裂和增殖,抑制剂与变构位点的结合将更有效。

The present communication is the result of the analysis of drinking water of Lapalang village in Pynursla Block, East Khasi Hills District of Meghalaya performed in order to rule out the unscientific claims by villagers that the village drinking water is likely to have high concentration of lime. Water samples collected from the source (spring), storage tank and tap are analysed. The study shows that spring water is fit for consumption, however the same water supply collected from storage tank and tap is highly contaminated with coliform bacteria.

Clitoria ternatea L. of the family Fabaceae is an economical, ornamental as well as medicinal important species. Chromosome characterization of C. ternatea, encompassing karyomorphological as well as fluorochrome binding was carried out in the present investigation. Karyomorphological studies showed the presence of 2n = 16 somatic chromosome number with three pairs of metacentric chromosomes and five pairs of submedian chromosomes. The analysis also revealed the present of one pair of nucleolar organizing region or satellite. Fluorochrome binding using chromomycin A3 (CMA) and 4-6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) showed the presence of GC- and AT- rich heterochromatic region. Further analysis revealed the percentage of GC-rich was comparatively higher than AT-rich heterochromatic region. This is the first report on heterochromatin characterization in C. ternatea.
蚕豆科阴蒂是一种经济、观赏、药用的重要植物。本研究对三叶草的染色体特征进行了研究,包括核形态和荧光结合。核形态研究表明,其体细胞染色体数目为2n = 16,染色体数目为3对异心染色体和5对亚中位染色体。分析还发现存在一对核仁组织区或卫星。用色霉素A3 (CMA)和4-6-二氨基-2-苯基吲哚(DAPI)结合的荧光染料显示出富含GC和AT的异色区。进一步分析表明,富gc的比例相对高于富at的异色区。本文首次报道了南芥的异染色质特征。
