A suitable host-guest inclusion complex has beenmade with a guest molecule, 1-methyl-3- octylimidazolium chloride ([MOIm]Cl) and a host molecule, α-cyclodextrin in aqueous medium. Formation of the host-guest inclusion complex has been established by Surface tension and conductivity readings while1H NMR and ultraviolet spectroscopy readingconfirms1:1 host-guest stoichiometry. These results have implications for the formation of host-guest inclusion complex of studied ionic liquid as guest in aqueous α–cyclodextrin media.

Information on combining abilities and gene action parameters remain critical in oil palm selection/breeding for high yield commercial tenera hybrid. In this study, female families (DA2356D, DA787D, DA507D, and LM7899D) and male families (LM9175T, LM9287T, and LM9927T) were crossed and their progenies planted at Specialized Centre for Oil Palm Research of Cameroon. After 10 years, the resulting progeny test was evaluated in a randomized complete block design with three replications. Oil yield and selected oil palm traits were estimated.

From time immemorial traditional medicines have been utilized by human society for improving the health care. In this study, anti hyperlipidemic effect of flaxseed was studied. The present study was conducted on white albino rats. The rats were fed with high fat diet for the induction of hypercholesterolemia for 30 days. The hypercholesterolemic rats were administered with roasted Flaxseed powder of 250 gm (low dose) and 500 grams (high dose).

In this paper we discusses some relationship between Elzaki transform and the newintegral transform called ZZ transform, we solve first and second order ordinarydifferential equations with constant and non-constant coefficients, using both transforms,and showing ZZ transform is closely connected with Elzaki transform.
