Soil characteristic and microbial diversity of Tharangampadi Taluk, Nagapattinam District have been investigated to study the seasonal changes in soil moisture, pH, Organic carbon, available nitrogen and micro nutrient like sodium, Potassium, Calcium and Magnesium during the period of one year (2015-2016). Physico - chemical analysis were performed to study the soil characteristic related to fertility and chemical nature.

Background and Aim: There is a definite relation between irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and celiac disease (CD), also, IBS patients have sensitivity to certain dietary components. This study aimed to reveal the prevalence of celiac disease among Egyptian patients with IBSusing anti[1]endomysial Ab IgA.

The purpose of this study is to examine the influence of online shopping experience on perception of specific types of risks associated with online shopping and how each type of risk perceptions influences online purchase intentions. A conceptual model was proposed to illustrate the relationships between online shopping experience and perceptions of product, financial, and privacy risks associated with online shopping, and how both experience and risk perceptions impact online purchase intentions.

Fractures healed normally independent of dietary calcium for the first few weeks of healing. Adequacy of serum calcium level is important, but unusual high intake does not appear to speed up fracture healing process, rather it could have deleterious effect on the cardiovascular system. Complex multi-nutrient do reduce complications in fracture management whereas Non-steroidal anti- inflammatory drugs and Cox-2 inhibitor drugs impaired fracture healing.

Copper oxide films have direct band gap of about 1.2 to 2.6eV. They could be used in many applications including solar cell, sensor and optoelectronic industry. The aim of this work is to investigate the properties of copper oxide thin films under various deposition methods. The obtained results based on the structure, optical, morphology and electrical properties are discussed. The overall results found that different researchers have reported different properties of copper oxide based on experimental conditions.

Research indicated to find gender difference and correlation on values and satisfaction with life among males and females working in areas which have, so far been dominated by males. A purposive sample of 130 employees (65 males & 65 females, with age ranging from 20 to 40 years, with minimum education S.S.C.) was selected from manufacturing units, State Transport Buses, petrol pumps, Pune, Maharashtra, India. They responded to Comprehensive Value Scale by Agarwal (2013) and Satisfaction with Life Scale by Diener & Pavot (2006).

Now a day life have so many worry & hurry, so every man is always in stress, they have no time to take care of themselves. Person will becomes victim to different diseases. To come out from this stressful life; to live long life without becoming the victim of disease, Ayurveda have two main principles, “swasthasya swasthy rakshanam, & aturasy roga prashamanam cha”. “swassthasy swasthya rakshanam” to prove this principle fruitful we should be aware of, what type of food we are taking?, what is the required quantity?, what is the correct time to take?

A Non-doctor prescribing and self-medication of drugs is common in developing countries. People tend to act on their own for their health. Encouragement of self-care is seen as giving patients every opportunity to take responsibility and build confidence in their ability to manage their own health. Self-medication is defined as the use of medication whether modern or traditional for the purpose of self-treatment.

Chlorhexidine is a chemical antiseptic agent which is used extensively in the field of dentistry. It is effective against both gram positive and gram negative organisms. It has both bacteriostatic and bacteriocidal action in different concentrations. It is available in different forms such as mouth wash, spray, root canal irrigant, gel, lozenges, varnish, tooth brush disinfectant, chewing gum, intracanalmedicament, floss, mucoadhesive tablets, local drug delivery agent, chlorhexidine incorporated GIC, Chlorhexidine coated tooth picks.

Herein we discuss physical properties of 4-(ω-hydroxyalkoxy)-4’-cyanoazoxybenzene homologs.1D and 2D correlation NMR spectroscopy (in particular,¹Н, ¹⁵ N-HMBC experiment) have allowed elucidation of structure of the prepared rod-like supramolecular cyanoazoxybenzenes. Mesomorphic properties of the compounds have been studied by means of polarization thermomicroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. All the studied cyanoazoxybenzenes have revealed enantiotropic nematic mesomorphism over wide temperature range.
