Significance of the Malondialdehyde (MDA) Bioassay Methods in Lipid Peroxidation
Abstract: Along with all the metabolic reactions, the cell cytoplasm is engaged in the process of production of the free radicals and reactive oxygen species (ROS). The overproduction of reactive oxygen species in cell cytoplasm leads into the condition of the oxidative stress. This situation may also be the results of the combination of excessive formation of radicals derived from oxygen or nitrogen or both. Cellular components may be attacked in …

Pitaya Cactus Endophytic Bacteria a Sustainable Option to Reduce and Optimize NH4NO3 in Phaseolus vulgaris
Abstract: The Phaseolus vulgaris crop demands nitrogen fertilizer as NH4NO3 for healthy growth. However, the application of NH4NO3 not uptaken by plant roots, generates N2O, a gas that contributes to the greenhouse effect besides loss of soil fertility; a sustainable option is to reduce up to 50% and to optimize it by inoculating P. vulgaris seeds with genera and species of plant growth promoting endophytic bacteria isolated from a desert xerophyte …

Several Phases of Binary Liquid Mixture
Abstract: The system’s overall composition, heat, and stress can all be changed independently. Instead of using parameters like the coordinates of a three-dimensional phase diagram, we often generate a twodimensional phase transformation that is either a thermal diagram at a specified pressure or its composition graph at a fixed temperature. The location of the system points on one of these diagrams correlates to a certain heat, stress, and normal phenomenon. As …

MODAL ANALYSIS OF CONVENTIONAL RCC STRUCTURE WITH STEEL BRACING
Abstract: It is a well-known fact that high rise reinforced structures are vulnerable to lateral loadings from things like earthquake and wind stresses. Bracing systems have the excellent benefit of adding just a tiny amount of bulk to the structure while significantly enhancing its performance. Building modelling is done both with and without a bracing system in this study. Analysis that is both linear and dynamic is being done. The structure …
