Classifications of evidentiality all include at least one ‘reported’, ‘quotative’ or ‘hearsay’ category. This category is found in many language groups that are attested to have evidentiality, including the Tibeto-Burman family. Although attested, reported often under-described both descriptive grammars specific languages, and typologies across survey family mention descriptions 88 130 language...

BACKGROUND Gorkhas, a sub-mountainous population of the Himalayan region, are known for strength and bravery. In the present study when "Gorkha" is used without brackets, we are mentioning Gorkhas of Tibeto-Burman origin. Physical capability, strength and endurance are important components of fitness associated with genetic traits. The aim of this study was to examine the endurance potential of...

background and objectives: nowadays corn flakes are the most common form of breakfast cereals however, their vitamins are declined during the baking process. in this research, production of fortified corn flakes by lactobacillus plantarum and l. reuteri, as well as incorporation of oat and malt fiber as prebiotics have been studied. materials and methods: plackett-burman statistical design was ...

To optimize the production conditions for exopolysaccharides with higher antioxidant activities from Xerocomus badius cultured in shrimp byproduct medium, Plackett-Burman design, path of steepest ascent, and response surface methodology were explored. Based on the results of Plackett-Burman design and path of steepest ascent, a Box-Behnken design was applied to optimization and the regression m...

A total of 6 isolates of Bacillus subtilis were isolated from oil mill waste collected in Namakkal district, Tamilnadu, India. The isolated bacteria were screened using lipase screening medium containing Tween 80. BS-3 isolate exhibited a greater clear zone than the others, indicating higher lipase activity. Therefore, this isolate was selected for media optimization studies. Ten process variab...

Receptors encoded within the Natural Killer Cell (NKC) complex and Killer Immunoglobulin like (KIRs) genomic regions have been suggested to influence malaria pathogenesis and infection susceptibility. We have examined KIR locus in relation to risk of infection and disease in Tea tribes (TT) of Austro Asiatic affinity and Tibeto-Burman (TB) populations from malaria endemic regions of Assam. Cons...
