Quality Assessment of Oven Dried Fish at Three Different Temperature

Quality Assessment of Oven Dried Fish at Three Different Temperature: The present study was to assess the organoleptic quality and chemical composition of oven dried Puntius sophore at three different temperature during July 2019 to February, 2020 at department of Fisheries, University of Rajshahi, Bangladesh. Puntius sophore, the most available fish species of Bangladesh in dried and fresh condition was selected for the study. The species was collected (fresh condition) from the Chalan beel area, Shingra bazar of Shingra Upazila, Natore and brought into the laboratory of department of fisheries, University of Rajshahi. After collection the fishes were processed and dried in the oven at 50ºC, 60ºC and 65ºC temperature, respectively and time duration of oven drying were 11.30±0.14 (50ºC), 11.33±0.15 (60ºC) and 10.32±0.13 (65ºC) hour, respectively. Organoleptic and chemical test (protein, lipid, ash and moisture) were also done. The appearance, odor, color, taste, texture, flavor and ove...

Ethical Issues in Data Sharing and Privacy for Research Publications

 Ethical Issues in Data Sharing and Privacy for Research Publications .  Data sharing is crucial for the progress of research. Data sharing enables collaborations, result verifications, and connection for future researches. But, Data sharing brings significant ethical challenges, especially in privacy. Today we are going to discuss the key methods to prevent it. 1. Informed Consent Informed consent comes when users concerned about their data as how it will be used and they agreed to it. In informed consent users know which type of data will be collected, how it will be collected and on which purpose their data will be used. Importance of Informed Consent Informed consent builds more ethical and building trust of users. It does with users concern, which safeguards from any legal issues for the owner. 2. Data Anonymization Data anonymization involves removing or changing information that could identify participants, like names and addresses. Importance of Data Anonymization Anon...

Preliminary Study for Gatekeepers Self-Efficacy Scale among Resident Assistants (GSS- RA)

Preliminary Study for Gatekeepers Self-Efficacy Scale among Resident Assistants (GSS- RA): As the importance of promoting college student mental health increases and campuses work to prevent suicide, resident assistants (RAs) are called upon to serve as gatekeepers to facilitate professional help as a part of suicide prevention initiatives on campuses. However, assessing the efficacy of suicide prevention training is lacking. This study develops and validates the Gatekeepers Self-Efficacy Scale among resident assistants (RAs) based on the Question, Persuade, Response suicide prevention model. Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA), Parallel Analysis, and Multidimensional Graded Response model (MGRM) were used with 302 RAs sample. Two factors were found, (1) Communicating about Crisis and (2) Knowledge of Resources, with appropriate item fit and parameter estimates. The response patterns of the two factors and their correlations with objective suicide prevention knowledge were estimated and ...

Development of an Antihypertensive Loaded Solid Lipid Nanoparticle

Solid lipid nanoparticles were prepared by using the solvent evaporation method. The prepared solid lipid nanoparticles of felodipine from different batches were weighed accurately and filled into appropriate-sized capsules for further evaluation. The prepared nanoformulation was tested in vitro for drug entrapment efficiency found to be 97-99% for the formulation with soya lecithin and glyceryl mono-stearate and percentage yield. The results of the in vitro drug release study for all formulations performed at gastric pH 1.2 indicated that the drug was released in an immediate manner within 60 minutes, which could be due to a burst effect or a faster rate of drug release due to smaller particle size SLN13 the concentration of Glycerol Monosterate- 576.522mg and Poloxamer 188. In vitro release data from standardised nanoformulations was fitted to various release kinetics models for the drug release mechanism. The optimised formulation demonstrated improved drug release and entrapment ef...

Carbonate System Seasonal Behavior along a Southeastern Brazilian Estuarine-Lagoon Complex with Different Degrees of Anthropogenic Impacts on its Sectors

Carbonate System Seasonal Behavior along a Southeastern Brazilian Estuarine-Lagoon Complex with Different Degrees of Anthropogenic Impacts on its Sectors. Abstract This study aimed to understand the behavior of the carbonate system in the Cananéia-Iguape Estuarine-Lagoon Complexn (CIELC) to evaluate its potential as a source or sink for atmospheric CO2. This estuarine-lagoon complex is one of the most extensive in Brazil, more than 100 km long and covers protected and sparsely inhabited regions of the state of São Paulo. This system presents, in its southern portion, most preserved areas, and evident anthropogenic impact in the northern portion, where an artificial canal was created in the second half of the 19th century, with the aim of shortening the navigation path link the river to the estuarine system offering a passage to the sea, resulting in several modifications, both from a hydrodynamic and biogeochemical mechanisms. Sampling of salinity (S), temperature (T), total alkalinity...

Effect of Tragacanth Gum on Some Protective Mechanisms of Black Cumin (Nigella sativa L.) Under Drought Stress Conditions

Effect of Tragacanth Gum on Some Protective Mechanisms of Black Cumin (Nigella sativa L.) Under Drought Stress Conditions :  Abstract The production of active oxygen species increases under drought stress conditions, which means that their removal or deactivation is out of plant power. Therefore, most plants in the face of drought stress require solutions adopted by farm managers. In order to investigate the effect of various irrigation regimes and anti-evapotranspiration effect of different concentrations of tragacanth gum on protective mechanisms of Nigella sativa L., a factorial experiment was conducted in a completely randomized design with three replications in the greenhouse of the Faculty of Agriculture, the University of Kurdistan in 2018. The experimental factors included irrigation at three levels of 100 (full irrigation), 70 (mild drought stress), and 40% (severe drought stress) of field capacity of soil and spraying with tragacanth gum at six concentrations of 0, 1.25, ...
