The present work makes use of experimental ac complex impedance data to obtain the electrical parameters like electrical conductivity and activation energy of ((Bi0.5Na0.5)0.94Ba0.06TiO3+0.2 wt%Nb2O5)– PVDF 0-3 composites with 10, 20 and 30 vol. percentage of ((Bi0.5Na0.5)0.94Ba0.06TiO3+0.2 wt%Nb2O5) in the frequency range 1kHz–1 MHz over a temperature range of 35C-145°C. SEM micrographs exhibi...

A study was conducted to determine how shade (0%, 40%, 80%) reduces high light intensity and temperature to optimize growth of ranunculus (Ranunculus asiaticus L.) under high altitude tropical conditions. The study was set up in a split plot design, replicated three times and repeated once. Ranunculus tuberous roots were preconditioned at 30C, 20C, 10C or 2C for two weeks and thereafter grown u...

Background: Candida albicans, accounts for more than 75% of all Candidal infections. Apart from its growing prevalence, it is also one the most resistant strains against antifungal medication. Homoeopathy an alternative to allopathic medication and has shown inhibiting fungal growth. Objective: This study was determine effectiveness homoeopathic tinctures medications versus Ketoconazole in grow...

The cyanobacterium Trichodesmium is an important link in the global nitrogen cycle due to its significant input of atmospheric nitrogen to the ocean. Attempts to incorporate Trichodesmium in ocean biogeochemical circulation models have, so far, relied on the observed correlation between temperature and Trichodesmium abundance. This correlation may result in part from a direct effect of temperat...

Neuropathic pain and its effective management remains a challenging clinical problem in palliative care of cancer patients. In this study Carcinosinum30c (a homeopathic remedy) is used for relief of severe pain in cancer patients, who were a candidate for nerve block procedure (CEPCA). In this case study to seven cancer patients who were referred to pain clinic for nerve block procedure, after ...
