| Abstract: | Even though continental margins cover only about 7–9% of the world ocean area, they are important sites for organic carbon accumulation and hence play a major role in biogeochemical carbon cycling. Surface sediments from the western and eastern continental shelves of India were studied for their total organic matter content and the labile constituents such as total carbohydrates and proteins to get a better understanding of the hydrological and biogeochemical differences of the two regions on the nature of organic matter reaching the surface sediments. The sampling along the west coast was done during September–October 2003, when upwelling signatures were found to be still persisting along the shelf as evidenced by the low-oxygenated, nutrient-rich surface waters. The eastern shelf was sampled during November–December 2002. The shelf was found to be oxygen saturated and oligotrophic during the season. The surface sediments of the west coast contained a greater quantity of total organic matter when compared to the east coast, but the percentages of labile constituents of total organic matter in the sediments were found to be higher in the east coast by a factor of three as compared to the west coast. The differences in the productivity patterns and the hydrographical conditions were found to exert a major influence on the quantity and composition of organic matter in the surface sediments of the western and eastern continental shelves of India. |

| Abstract: | Budidaya menghasilkan sejumlah besar limbah, terdiri dari metabolisme oleh-produk, makanan sisa, materi feses dan residu dari masukan profilaksis dan terapeutik, mengarah pada penurunan kualitas air dan wabah penyakit. Bioremediasi, aplikasi mikroba / enzim untuk tambak, adalah metode yang sedang digunakan untuk meningkatkan kualitas air dan menjaga kesehatan dan stabilitas sistem akuakultur. Bioremediasi melibatkan mineralisasi bahan organik menjadi karbon dioksida, memaksimalkan produktivitas primer yang merangsang produksi udang, nitrifikasi dan denitrifikasi untuk (1) menghilangkan kelebihan nitrogen dari tambak dan (2) mempertahankan beragam dan stabil masyarakat kolam dimana patogen dikeluarkan dari sistem dan spesies diinginkan mendapatkan didirikan. Selain dari bahan organik merendahkan (detritivorous) bakteri heterotrofik, nitrifikasi, bakteri denitrifikasi dan fotosintesis umumnya digunakan dalam bioremediasi. |

| Abstract: | 5-HT2A receptor binding parameters were studied in the cerebral cortex and brain stem of control, diabetic, insulin, insulin + tryptophan and tr3yptophan treated streptozotocin diabetic rats. Scatchard analysis using selective antagonist, [-H](±)2,3-dimethoxyphenyl-l-[2-(4-piperidine)- methanol] ([3H]MDL100907) in cerebral cortex of diabetic rats showed a significant decrease in dissociation constant (Kd) without any change in maximal binding (Bm). Competition binding studies in cerebral cortex using ketanserin against [3H]MDL100907 showed the appearance of an additional site in the low affinity region during diabetes. In the brain stem, Scatchard analysis showed a significant increase in Bmax and Kd. Displacement studies showed a shift in the receptor affinity towards a low affinity state. All these altered parameters in diabetes were reversed to control level by insulin, insulin + tryptophan and tryptophan treatments. Tryptophan treatment is suggested to reverse the altered 5-HT2Abinding and blood glucose level to control status by increasing the brain 5-HT content. |

| Abstract: | Kinetic parameters of brain glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) were compared in the brain stem, cerebellum and cerebral cortex of three weeks and one year old streptozotocin (STZ) induced four day diabetic rats with respective controls. A single intrafemoral dose of STZ (60mg/Kg body weight) was administered to induce diabetes in both age groups. After four days the blood glucose levels showed a significant increase in the diabetic animals of both age groups compared with the respective controls. The increase in blood glucose was significant in one year old compared to the three weeks old diabetic rats. The Vmm of the enzyme was decreased in all the brain regions studied, of the three weeks old diabetic rats without any significant change in the Km. In the adult the Vmax of GDH was increased in cerebellum and brain stem but was unchanged in the cerebral cortex. The K. was unchanged in cerebellum and cerebral cortex but was increased in the brain stem. These results suggest there may be an important regulatory role of the glutamate pathway in brain neural network disturbances and neuronal degeneration in diabetes as a function of age. |

| Abstract: | A novel cavity perturbation technique using coaxial cavity resonators for the measurement of complex permittivity of liquids is presented. The method employs two types of resonators (Resonator I and Resonator II). Resonator I operates in the frequency range 600 MHz-7 GHz and resonator II operates in the frequency range 4 GHz-14 GHz. The introduction of the capillary tube filled with the sample liquid into the coaxial resonator causes shifts in the resonance frequency and loaded Q-factor of the resonator. The shifts in the resonance frequency and loaded Q-factor are used to determine the real and imaginary parts of the complex permittivity of the sample liquid, respectively. Using this technique, the dielectric parameters of water and nitrobenzene are measured. The results are compared with those obtained using other standard methods. The sources of errors are analyzed. |

| Abstract: | The detection of buried objects using time-domain freespace measurements was carried out in the near field. The location of a hidden object was determined from an analysis of the reflected signal. This method can be extended to detect any number of objects. Measurements were carried out in the X- and Ku-bands using ordinary rectangular pyramidal horn antennas of gain 15 dB. The same antenna was used as the transmitter and recei er. The experimental results were compared with simulated results by applying the two-dimensional finite-difference time-domain(FDTD)method, and agree well with each other. The dispersi e nature of the dielectric medium was considered for the simulation. |
