Nutritional Evaluation and Microbiological Analysis of Full Fat Yoghurt processed with biological and chemical preservatives
The production of full fat yoghurt from full cream milk enhanced with ginger extract and sodium benzoate with a view to improve its nutritional quality and shelf life was carried out. The pH of the yoghurt samples were determined, as incubation time increased the pH of the samples reduced. The yoghurt with 5000mg/L of sodium benzoate had the lowest pH of 4.2, while yoghurt with ginger extract had the highest pH of 4.8. The organoleptic evaluation was conducted by ten panel members to assess: appearance, sourness, consistency, aroma, taste and general acceptance; yoghurt with ginger was rated the best and the most acceptable. Proximate analysis was carried out to evaluate nutritional composition such as: crude protein, fiber, fat, moisture and ash contents; yoghurt with ginger extract had the highest protein content of 10.44% while the control sample had the lowest (3.59%). Also, the control sample had the highest fat content of 3.71% while yoghurt with ginger extract had the lowest (1.58%). The shelf life of the four yoghurt samples were monitored and the control had the lowest shelf life of three weeks, followed by yoghurt with 2500mg/L of sodium benzoate had shelf life of eight weeks, while the yoghurt with ginger extract and yoghurt with 5000mg/L of sodium benzoate had the highest shelf life of three months. Lactic acid bacteria and non-lactics isolates were isolated from the yoghurt. The isolates were characterized and identified as Lactobacillus brevis, Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus lactis, Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Bacillus cereus, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Proteus mirabilis, Pseudomonas chlororaphis, Bacillus subtilis. The total bacteria colony count of each of the samples was monitored for four weeks and the control sample had the microbial load of 2.0 x 104 in the first week after production and increased to >6.0 x 107 in the fourth week. The ginger preserved cheese had the lowest microbial load of 2.0 x 102 in the first week and increased to 5.0 x105 in the fourth week. Therefore, the high cost and side effect of chemical preservatives could be overcome by the application of biological preservatives particularly ginger extract which added to the nutritional value of the yoghurt, it also demonstrated a good preservative property.

On the effect of topological fixed point theory
The article presents the concept of fixed point theorem with the Banach contraction principle which is the main source of fixed point theory. We give definitions, theories and examples of Banach contraction principles, complete lattice, homeomorphism between spaces. The metric fixed point theory is given more importance due to its simplicity of application. To ensure existence of the fixed point, continuity property is not a necessary condition , however some order – monotonic conditions must be satisfied by a given mapping.

One Point Determining and Two Point Distinguishing Graphs
A point determining graph is defined to be a graph in which distinct non adjacent points have distinct neighborhoods. If in addition any two distinct points have distinct closed neighborhoods, it is called point distinguishing graph. A graph G is said to be one point determining, if for any two distinct vertices v_1 and v_2 ?N(v?_1)and? N(v?_2) have at most one vertex in common. A graph G is said to be two point distinguishing if for any two distinct vertices v_1 and? v?_2, the closed neighborhood ? N[v?_1] and ? N[v?_2] , have at most two vertices in common. Here we focus on some properties of one point determining and two point distinguish- ing graphs.

Parallel and successive interference cancellation in a digital front end of SDR receiver
Software Defined Radio (SDR) is a radio technique that has the capability of replacing several receivers with a single universal receiver. It includes a Digital Front-End (DFE) with the ultimate goal to implement all processing in digital domain. As the receiver has to adapt to various communication standards with different characteristics, the objective is to develop an optimum detection algorithm to combat Multiple Access Interference (MAI). Subtractive Interference Cancellation (IC) detectors like SIC and PIC are proposed and are employed in both uplink and downlink transmissions. Suitability of linear detectors like MRC and MMSE based MUD is being analyzed in multistage receiver.

Peroral administration of peptides and proteins
In recent studies, parental product remains the most crucial means for administering of the therapeutic agent with proteins and peptide due to its poor bioavailability. Therapeutic proteins are becoming more important in an ever-increasing part of the healthcare system. The structural and therapeutic property of these molecules makes them more dependable on drug delivery technology so that they can achieve their maximum effectiveness. However, formulating proteins such that they maintain their stability and that they are delivered within their efficacious and safe target doses remains a challenge. The protein delivery systems reviewed in this article have been divided in to three groups, the oral, intestinal and colonic deliver

Professional Ethics and Code of conduct – A perfect norms for Registered Valuers
Each and every individual living in this world follow certain rules and principles which influence and determine their behavior while performing his day to day activities which are called as Ethics like ‘stealing is wrong’ , ‘one should help the person in need’ and so on. Just like that there are certain rules and guidelines which governs the behavior of a person and a group in their workplace which are known as professional ethics and code of conduct. Every professional persons, have different ethics and code of conduct like lawyer and chartered accountant, both’s ethics and conduct will differ from each other. In this research paper we will be studying who is Registered Valuer and the professional ethics and code of conduct of the registered valuers, who are responsible for valuation of the different assets like plant and machinery, land and building and securities and financial assets which they need to follow while valuing these assets.

Promoting students’ creativity through leadership styles
In today’s competitive world, the only thing that is constant is change. As a result, creative capacity is the key. Creativity has become a topic of ever-increasing interest in educational settings. Like it or not, teachers serve as the metronome in the classroom. The meter and behavior established by them set the patterns and establish the models for students’ behavior as individuals and as a group. Thus, there is a need to identify the role of teacher leadership behaviors for students’ creativity. The purpose of this article is to propose possible approaches to facilitate creativity in the classroom, especially with the emphasis on leadership perspective. First, the definition of creativity is discussed. Then based on the literature, several strategies and ideas of promoting creativity are reviewed. Next, a possible model is proposed, including knowledge, creative thinking, motivation and self-efficacy, goal setting and work group, transformational leadership, and supportive leadership. Finally, the implication of this model is described.

Quality assessment of Victoria 1500 and 2000 capsules a herbal drug product
This study was designed to investigate the quality of Victoria 1500 and 2000 capsules a herbal medication that contain ginseng (major components Rg1&Rb1), royal jelly (marker component is 10-hydroxydec-2-enoic acid (10-HDA)) and yohimbine. The study include determination of major components content, long term stability, determination of elements , studying the microbiological contamination, detection of pesticides residues and mycotoxins. The drugs were stored under different simulated climatic conditions. The reaction rate constant (K), the half-life (t1/2) and the activation energies were calculated for ginsenosides Rg1 &Rb1. The activation energies were found to be 10.99 and 10.2( k.cal.mol-1 ) for Rg1 &Rb1respectively. The % content of Rg1, Rb1 and 10-HDA of Victoria1500 &2000 capsules after six months storage were found at the lower specifications limit (80-120% of stated amount). For yohimbine were found within allowable limit(90-110%). Studies on the elemental composition confirmed absence of toxic heavy metals. The capsules were found to be free from Microbiological contamination and any pesticide residues. The mycotoxins content were found to be within the allowable limits(800-4300ng/kg). Victoria 1500&2000 capsules were found to comply with the given specifications up to six months storage, thereafter, the samples showed physical &chemical instability with a decrease in Rg1,Rb1 and 10-HDA contents but without effect on yohimbine content.
