Durian nursery can be done by using source of generative and vegetative material. Both sources of propagation have their own weaknesses and strengths. To obtain quality seeds, the combination of two sources of propagation materials each has complementary advantages. The process of merging can be through grafting or bud buds (grafting). Connection method on durian nursery can use side grafting and bud grafting. The purpose of this research is to know the difference of carbohydrate, protein, lipids, and auxin content in various sources and storage times scion.

Human Papilloma Viruses are members of a large family of viruses known as Papovaviridae. A number of patients infected with the above virus visit Ayurveda hospitals daily. This article is an effort to interpret the HPV infection through Ayurveda.

A study was conducted on watermelon (Citrullusvulgaris) seeds porridge supplemented with the flour of pearl millet (Pennisetumglaucum) variety Dembi. The main objectives of the study were to determine the chemical composition and to improve the quality of processed porridge as well as to improve the nutritional value. The Data were collected on proximate composition, tannins, protein digestibility, minerals contents and sensory evaluation.

Industrial effluents is a threat to the biological species in the aquatic environment. Removal of these heavy metals would make the aquatic world free of pollution and will be a boon. This paper presents the studies carried out on the applicability of microalga namely Spirulina sp. for heavy metal removal from the electroplating industrial effluent. The effects of pH, adsorbent dose, temperature and contact time on the adsorption of chromium by the dry biomass were studied.

The acetogenin containing members of the Annonaceae family Annona squamosa L., Annona reticulata L., and Annona muricata L are known insecticidals. The antifungal potency of these three well studied plants along with a fourth acetogenin containing member, Uvaria narum L. were put to test against the fungus Colletotrichum gloeosporioides that causes post harvest anthracnose disease in many tropical fruits.

In the present study, the leaf powder of Moringa oleifera Lam. was subjected to preliminary phytochemical and invitro antioxidant analysis. The freshly prepared plant leaf extract was subjected to preliminary phytochemical screening, which revealed the presence of alkaloids, tannins, saponins, flavonoids, glycosides, phenolic compounds, terpenoids and steroids. Reducing power, superoxide anion radical, nitric oxide radical and hydroxyl radical scavenging assays were carried out to evaluate the antioxidant potential of the methanolic leaf extract of this plant.

In this study, doum fruit pulp (slices) was used to prepare four types of beverages in addition to the traditional doum drink. Distilled water, gum Arabic, CMC and filtration treatments were separately used to prevent precipitate formation (pulp sedimentation). All products were examined for physicochemical, microbial and organoleptic qualities. The traditional doum drink showed a pH value of 5.1, 153 mg/100ml acidity, 7.3 oBrix total soluble solids and 12.83 cps viscosity.

Arsha (Piles) is an extremely common problem in all anorectal disorders. Arsha is clinically an engorged condition of haemorrhoidal venous plexus characterized by inflamed or prolapsed pile mass, bleeding per rectum. The term haemorrhoids usually resulted by straining during defecation, chronic constipation or diarrhoea, pregnancy etc. Main aetiological factor Mithyaaahar-vihar and sedentary life style.

The aim of this work was contribute to the food safety of Sudanese consumers by studying the physicochemical properties and microbiological evaluation of peanut butter samples .The samples were collected from different area in Khartoum state. The results revealed that some samples were nutritive which had protein values ranged between (27.47-24.31%), oil content values ranged between (50.38-46.28%), energy values ranged between (610.69-600.03kcl/100g) and appear to have positive effects on human health and so could meet the dietary needs of the population.
