Formulation, development and sensory acceptability of high calorie snack bars

Background: The demand for consumption of healthy, innovative, processed and convenience foods are increasing rapidly due to increasing in awareness about health and lack of time to cook has led to the development of cereal bars. Study focused on developing high calorie snack bars to be used as a complementary food for malnutrition. Objectives: To develop high calorie millet-based snack bar as a complementary food for malnutrition. Materials and methods: Snack bars were made with millets, nuts and oil seeds, sweeteners and gum. The optimized composite mix formulation was enriched with inulin. The developed bars were evaluated for sensory acceptability using 9-point hedonic scale. Physical characteristics and nutrient content were estimated. Results: The high calorie bar was prepared with locally available ingredients. The sensorial attributes of bars made with jaggery scored higher in comparison with other sweeteners. The developed bars had calorific value of 402-430 kcal/100gm with protein content in the range of 11%, fat 13-14%, fibre 2-3% and carbohydrates 57- 64%. Calcium content ranged from 44.1 -70.9 mg, iron 2-3mg, whereas zinc 50.41mg and magnesium 2.04mg/100g was constant in all samples. Conclusion: Incorporation of millets enhanced the functional and nutrient content of snack bars and could be used as a functional ingredient for better health.

Identification of public realm aspects in connection to the trends of urbanization in Indian cities

If the population keeps growing and lands are desired, there is always a need to explore the numerous directions of how the city immediately emerges. The new trend for future development and urbanization is higher density development. The barrier between advocacy of higher density environment and social sustainability asks for a descriptive and systematic interpretation for inclusive growth. The paper discusses the dynamics of urbanization trends and the immediate attention that has to be considered to ensure quality public life through understanding and finding the aspects of public realm. This work investigates several ways of how the public spaces are manifested and understood. The intent of the paper is to identify the aspects of public realm which could contribute to a resourceful organization of public spaces.

The SIR Model: Spread of Disease (COVID-19) in Ethiopia

The recent emergence of COVID-19 a pandemic is the top of the issues in the Globe. The spread of disease is more and there are several phases of Outbreaks and propagandas to aware their people by the Government and various public interested organizations. Even the daily reports on this Pandemic increased with respect to times or days. In Ethiopia, the Government announced State of Emergency (SOE) to protect the people. After observing these situations, the thrust of analysis of Spread of disease leads this article. Based on the daily reports from the authorized concern bodies that is Ministry of Health (MOH) , Ethiopia providing daily reports and it was recorded by the authors and the data were made. Conclusion: There is no any special significance of spread of diseases (COVID-19) in Ethiopia; it has the same pattern in spread of diseases as like the overall world. By maintain the practice of Hygiene and social distance the spread may reduce in Ethiopia.

Challenges in the development of a new obturation device: A questionnaire survey

Dental anatomy plays a crucial role in human body as it helps in survival. The after treatment protocol in the root canal treatment (RCT) for improper functioning of the anatomy is major challenge for dentists. RCT deals with repairing and saving the tooth that is badly decayed or becomes infected. The RCT, if analyzed mechanically; various factors governs efficacy of the treatment out of which incomplete filling and sealing of 3D root canal space with suitable biomaterial against bacterial growth is major parameter. Today, thanks to modern technologies satisfactory results are obtained, but the cost of treatment is substantially increased which is unaffordable. Thus, a survey was carried by visiting doctors practicing for more than 25 years in conservative dentistry to recent students admitted to dental surgery in various colleges to understand tools/aids used during RCT with hypothesis of developing low cost obturation device for augmenting the dental device feasibility. The success rate of obturation device is high over hand pluggers; but the cost parameter limits the usage of same. The survey also coveys that complete sealing is also not possible with hand pluggers as well as existing available aids, and thus there is a need to develop a low cost obturation device using dual energy (low operating frequency and heat) source for increasing efficacy of treatment. To test feasibility of the collected data, it’s being analyzed through p-test (p>0.05) for selected parameters and correlation was found to be statistically significant.

Black hole attack detection and prevention by Grey Wolf Optimization

In this work, a detailed description of attacks in wireless sensor networks is presented and after this detailed literature review on the related approaches is resented. The review of different approaches and their methodology helps to improve the methodology of the work and helps to enhance the knowledge related to different types of attacks and their solution on WSN. This work presented the work on the optimization of energy and reduction in delay and packet loss during the communication on network. The optimization performed by using the grey wolf optimization algorithm which is a global optimizer that optimizes the results for effective and efficient outcomes. It improves the packet delivery rate, throughput, and reduces energy consumption and delay.

Thesis

Use of cotton, curcumin smoke as a potential treatment of COVID-19

COVID-19 pandemic is rapidly spreading at an increased rate. Various medicines are at various stages of testing or live usage, but none is proven to effectively reduce either the recovery time or the fatality rate. Current treatments focus on treating the symptoms or the complications which arise from the virus. Curcumin as traditionally used in India and as per various researches conducted is proven to act as antiviral, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, anti-fibrotic, antioxidant, anti-fungal, antithrombotic agent when consumed orally. Studies have also suggested curcumin to be explored as cure or remedy for COVID-19. In this thesis, we suggest why and how Cotton, Curcumin smoke inhalation may help to cure or remedy COVID-19 so that this may be used as an effective treatment to reduce recovery time and fatality rate.
