In-Vitro Anticoagulant Study of Leaf Extract of Couropita Guianensis
No full textAnticoagulant activity of different extract of cannon ball tree was evaluated in-vitro. Medicinal plant acts as a metabolic bio factory, which can be accessed as therapeutic potential with lesser side effects. The phyto constituents of various medicinal plants can be correlated with pharmacological study. In vitro study was carried out with a vision to setup standards that could be beneficial for detecting authenticity of this medicinal plant. Numerical standards reported in this work could be useful for the compilation of suitable monograph of Couropita guianensis. Various phyto constituents such as alkaloids, tannins, saponnins and glycosides are producing a better opportunity for testing various pharmacological activities. The results obtained from this research revealed that that the plant contains bioactive agents which are connected with anticoagulant activity in plants

“THE ECONOMIC CRISIS AND ITS AFTERMATH IN THE NORDIC AND BALTIC COUNTRIES DO AS WE SAY AND NOT AS WE DO”
No full textThe book The Economic Crisis and its Aftermath in the Nordic and Baltic Countries Do As We Say and Not As We Do written by Professor Dr. Hilmar Þór Hilmarsson is unique in many respects. It provides a broad view about the Nordic-Baltic countries, their response to the crisis of 2008/09 and the post-crisis consequences. Both regional and international aspects have been analyzed, namely regional institutions such as the European Union (EU) and global institutions such as the International Monetary Fund (IMF) in the operational sphere where policy choices of these nations get influenced. The author points out that Barry Eichengreen (Professor of Economics and Political Science at UC Berkeley) suggested that the title of this book should include: ‘Do as we say and not as we do’, reflecting author’s view mainly to a comparison between how Nordic countries may want the Baltic States to respond to crisis as compared to how they would respond themselves in comparable situations. In order to support this statement, the author mentions some instances, for example, comparison of how Finland and Sweden responded to the banking crisis they experienced in the early 1990s with how the Baltic States responded to the 2008/09 global economic and financial crisis, arguably under Nordic (mainly Swedish) influence. All those countries are then influenced by regional and global institutions. Thus, the author framed the title of the book as “The Economic Crisis and its Aftermath in the Nordic and Baltic Countries: Do as we say and not as we do”
A Routing Algorithm of Data in Networks of Metro and Mega Cities
No full textData transmission in networks is carried out by either the distance-vector or the link-state routing protocols, using the Bellman-Ford and the Dijkstra’s algorithms re- spectively for the least-cost path from a source to a destination. Inter-network is carried out by the path-vector routing protocol that also uses the Bellman-Ford algorithm. These protocols require dynamically shared maintenance of large charts by the nodal routers of the network. For a large network over the global earth, the author [7] has recently presented algorithms that adopts a near geodesic path connecting the source node to the destination node. However, when the nodes lie in the same city spread over a large area, the algorithm degenerates in to a simpler form. This paper presents an algorithm appro- priate for such cases
Three-dimensional non-linear finite element analysis of laterally loaded piles in clay
No full textBehavior of laterally loaded single piles and pile groups in fine grained soils are investigated using a non-linear finite element methodology. The purpose is to gather behavioral information that would help improve our knowledge of pile behavior and enhance the applicability of some existing methods of analysis.A three-dimensional non-linear finite element program, PILE3D, has been developed. An anisotropically hardening bounding surface plasticity model is used to model soil behavior. Behavior of soil-pile interface is modeled using thin isoparametric elements. Various geotechnical loading and boundary conditions including drained and undrained loading, water table, in-situ stresses, preconsolidation and formation of gap at the soil-pile interface, have been implemented.Two full-scale laterally loaded pile tests are analyzed using two- and three-dimensional idealizations and results are compared with observed pile behavior. Good agreement is obtained between measured and computed bending moment, soil resistance and lateral deflection along the length of the pile, load-deflection response at the pile-head and p-y curves at different depths.Influence on the behavior of the pile-soil system of flexural rigidity and diameter of the pile, shear strength, lateral pressure coefficient, friction angle and preconsolidation of the soil, and gap formation behind the pile at the soil-pile interface are investigated. Results are compared with some existing criteria for the determination of p-y curves.Effect of interaction between the individual piles in a group is studied using three different configurations: (i) an x 1 group, (ii) a 1 x group and (iii) an x group. Influence of spacing between the piles in a group is investigated. Results are compared with some existing theoretical solutions and with results of full-scale and model-scale pile load tests. Interactions factors are developed to adjust single pile p-y curves to account for group interaction.Made available in DSpace on 2011-05-07T13:55:33Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 2

EXPERIMENTAL EVALUATION OF ANTIDEPRESSANT ACTIVITY OF AQUEOUS AND CHLOROFORM LEAF AND SHOOT EXTRACTS OF EICCHORNIA CRASSIPES LINN IN MICE
No full textObjective: To investigate antidepressant activity of aqueous and chloroform extract of Eicchornia crassipes plant leaves and shoots in mice.Methods: The antidepressant activity of aqueous and chloroform extract of Eicchornia crassipes plant leaves and shoots were tested by forced swimtest (FST) and tail suspension test (TST) in albino mice and the results were compared for the both extracts. Imipramine was used as the standardrug for comparison. Results: Phytochemical screening showed presence of carbohydrates, alkaloids, flavanoids, steroids, saponins, amino acids, gums and mucilage.aqueous extract of Eicchornea crassipes (AEEC) and chloroform extract of E. crassipes (CEEC) did not produce any lethal effect even upto 2000 mg/kp.o during acute oral toxicity study. In FST and TST, CEEC showed diminution of duration of immobility time in 200 mg/kg but not in 100 mg/kg. Conclusion: From the above finding concluding that, shortening of immobility time in the FST and TST indicating, CEEC showed more antidepressantactivity acting either by the enhancement of central 5-HT or catecholamine neurotransmission compared to AEEC in mice.Keywords: Eicchornia crassipes, Aqueous extract of Eicchornia crassipes, Chloroform extract of Eicchornia crassipes, Forced swim test,Tail suspension test
