for aqueous and acetone seed extracts ranged from 20–80 mg/ml and 5–15 mg/ml respectively. Viable cell count studies revealed the bactericidal nature of the seed extracts. Statistical analysis proved the better/equal efficacy of some of these seed extracts as compared to standard antibiotics. Phytochemical analysis showed the presence of 2.80 – 4.23% alkaloids‚ 8.58 – 15.06% flavonoids‚ 19.71 – 27.77% tannins‚ 0.55–0.70% saponins and cardiac glycosides. Conclusion Antibacterial efficacy shown

4. The Medium Access Sub Layer Broadcast channels [or multi-access channels] are a category of networks and the key issue is how to determine who gets to use the channel when there is competition for it. The protocols which define these factors belong to a sub layer of data link layer called the MAC(medium access control)sub layer. ALOHA: Norman Abramson devised a new and elegant method to solve the channel allocation problem called the “ALOHA” system which used ground-based Radio broad

Ecosystems Components SCI/256 A region that receives fewer than 10 inches of rain annually is considered a desert. This lack of precipitation loosely illustrates what encompasses the desert ecosystem. Although there are many cold deserts around the globe‚ for the purpose of analysis‚ the focus of this paper will be hot desert ecosystems. The extreme heat of the day in some deserts can reach above 120 degrees and drop down below 32 degrees (National Geographic‚ 1996-2013). These temperature extremes

It is tri atomic oxygen (03) and is a gas found in the troposphere as well as in the stratosphere. Tropospheric ozone is undesirable since it is a pollutant these‚ causing photochemical smog and greenhouse effect. In the stratosphere‚ it acts as a protectant since‚ (i) It absorbs the dangerous UV-radiations (ii) It helps to trap the weather pattern within the troposphere‚ by generating a temperative inversion in the stratosphere. Tropospheric ozone is increasing due to human activities‚ while
