To develop throughout the country of courses, needs to fulfil the electricity requirements for cities as well as country sides or villages. Consequently, Micro hydropower is cost effective, environmentally friendly and manufactured locally. This research has studied on the hydropower generating system and mainly emphasized on the design of synchronous generator for used in Micro hydropower project Loi Unn village . In this paper, fixed blade axial flow propeller turbine is suiTABLEfor this Mico hydropower project and the design data of 1 phase, 6 pole, 1000 r.p.m, 50 Hz, 3 kVA synchronous generator is mentioned. The calculated results are checked based on the design limits and these are regarded as appropriate values.

    Familial defective apolipoprotein B-100 (FDB) is an autosomal dominant genetic disorder associated with hypercholesterolaemia and premature coronary heart disease. FDB is caused by mutations in and around the codon 3500 of the apolipoprotein B (apo B) gene. Apo B R3500Q mutation is the first apo B mutation known to be associated with FDB and it is the most frequently reported apo B mutation in several different populations. The objective of the present study was to determine the association of apo B R3500Q mutation with elevated plasma cholesterol concentration in Kelantanese population in which both hypercholesterolaemia and coronary heart disease are common. Sixty-two Malay subjects with hyperlipidaemia, attending the lipid clinic at Hospital Universiti Sains Malaysia, Kelantan, were selected for this study. The DNA samples were analysed for the presence of apo B R3500Q mutation by polymerase chain reaction-based restriction fragment analysis method using mutagenic primers. This mutation was not detected in the subjects selected for this study. Apo B R3500Q mutation does not appear to be a common cause of hypercholesterolaemia in Kelantanese Malays
