Brazil stands out in animal husbandry with great influence on the export market of meat. However, this activity is causing high soil degradation in pastureland. The aim of this work was to assess the effects of animal trampling in the physical and chemical soil attributes in grazing areas and environmental reserves. For this, an experiment was conducted in the IFPB Campus Sousa, carried out in a block design with 5 treatments and 3 replicates each.

Objectives: To investigate the levels of C- reactive protein, liver enzymes and TBARS levels in the women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and controls divided according to body mass index (BMI) and their association with features of this syndrome. Methods: Twenty one PCOS women and 10 healthy women were studied. Patients and controls were subdivided into three groups, Group 1 Healthy women with BMI 18.5- 24.99(n=10), Group 2 PCOS with BMI 25-29.9(n=11) and Group 3 PCOS with BMI >29.9(n=10).Clinical history, height and weight were obtained from the participants.

The study was conducted in district Auraiya during 2014-15 to benefit cost analysis of per hac paddy production. Primary data was collected through structured questionnaire. Ten villages from three tehsil namely Auraiya, Bidhuna and Ajitmal were randomly selected. A sample size of 100 farmers was used and the respondents were randomly selected. Overall cropping intensity was ranged 277.03-298.85 among farm categories. Per hectare cost of paddy cultivation was observed Rs. 44429.94 whereas; gross income and net income were recorded Rs. 63990.82 and 12126.98, respectively.

Was carried out on 23 adult individuals with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, enrolled in a Family Health Unit - Brazil. The data collected through a semi structured interview and processed and analyzed using the Collective Subject Discourse technique.

Among the vertebrate pests, the rodents are quite important as they have a direct interactions with the human beings and the locality. Most of the rodents are prolific breeder and breed throughout the year. This study is concerned with one serious rodent species, the Rattus sp. (Rattus sikkimensis) usually found in some portions of the District Nadia and North 24-Parganas, West Bengal, INDIA.

However the recent researches have focussed on other pathogens in the etiopathogenesis of periodontal diseases. Several studies have proved the association between viruses and periodontal diseases especially human herpes virus (HHV).The main aim of this review is to summarizes the evidence that link various herpes viruses to periodontitis, and to explain the possible mechanisms behind this process.

Traditionally, vegetables and fruits are dried outdoors in the sun without any protection against external pollutants or in direct dryers, causing very significant (nutritional and quantitative) losses. The objective of this work is to conduct a numerical simulation of a solar dryer in natural convection. For simulation, we use COMSOL software. The numerical resolution generated the heat flows in the system, the temperature field, the air velocity field and the pressure variation in the system.

This study reports the effect of waste water on biodegradation of drilling fluid contamination in brackish water environment. The experimental set ups include; Control 1(Brackish water with Water base drilling fluid) (BW+WB), Control 2 (Brackish water with Oil base drilling fluid) (BW+OB), Brackish water with Water base drilling fluid with Waste water (BW+WB+WW) and Brackish water with Oil base drilling fluid with Waste water (BW+OB+WW). Biodegradability was monitored for 28days.
