Abstract: The objective of this study was to compare positive mental health of physically active and sedentary elderly females of Jammu and Kashmir. To conduct the study 250 physically active elderly women (Ave. age 64.11 yrs) and 250 elderly women with sedentary lifestyle (Ave. age 63.23 yrs.) were selected as sample. Physical activity comprise of regular walking, cycling, light exercise etc. Positive mental health of selected subjects was assessed by PMHI prepared by Agashe and Helode (1998). This inventory is based on dimensions such as self acceptance, ego strength and philosophy of life for overall assessment of positive mental health. Data analysis with the help of independent sample 't' test reveal that positive mental health of elderly females engaged in regular physical activity was found to be significantly higher as compared to elderly females with sedentary lifestyle. It was concluded that elderly females engaged in regular physical activity possesses more magnitude of positive mental health as compared to sedentary elderly females.

Abstract: This study has been conducted to assess the impact of motor educability on academic achievement of adolescent boys of Jammu and Kashmir. To conduct the study, 250 adolescent boys studying in various schools operational in the State of Jammu and Kashmir were selected as sample. In all 50 adolescent boys from age group 13+ years age, 14+ years age, 15+ years age, 16+ years age and 17+ years age were selected randomly. Motor educability of selected subjects was assessed with the help of modified version of Johnson’s test of motor educability (1932) consisting of items such as front roll, back roll, jumping half turns and jumping full terms. Academic achievement of selected subjects was assessed with the help of previous year marks. In order to distribute adolescent boys in high, average and low level of motor educability, quartile methods was used. One Way ANOVA showed significantly superior academic achievement in adolescent boys exhibitinghigher magnitude ofmotor educability as compared to adolescent boys exhibiting average and low level of motor educability. It was concluded that motor educability is strongly associated with academic achievement of adolescent boys.

Abstract: Maturation date, yield / vine, berries colouration % berries, shattering %, cluster weight, total anthocyanins and both physical and chemical characteristics of grapevine cv., Flame seedless, grown under Minia region conditions in response to treating the clusters with protone (10% ABA) at 500ppm, ethrel at 250 ppm and amino acids at 1 % either applied alone or in different combinations were investigated during 2017 and 2018 seasons. Single and combined applications of protone at 500ppm, ethrel at 250 ppm and amino acids at 1% once at veraison stage when approximately 10% of the berries on 50% of the clusters had softened resulted in measurable advancement in maturation date and promotion on berries colouration and berries quality compared to the control. In ascending order the best materials in this respect were amino acids, protone and Ethrel. Combined application were favourable than using each material alone in hastening fruit maturation and improving berries quality. Yield as well as weights of cluster and berries were unaffected by the present treatments. For solving the problem of uneven colouration of the berries in the clusters of Flame seedless, grapevines grown under Middle Egypt region conditions, it is suggested to subject the clusters once at veraison stage when approximately 10% of the berries on 50% of the clusters on each vine had softened with a mixture of ethrel at 250 ppm, protone at 500 ppm and amino acids at 1%.

Abstract: Gum Arabic as Prebiotic is food ingredients that stimulate the growth of useful bacteria which lives in the large intestine of the human being or animal since birth and beneficial to the digestive system, body's immunity, disposal of poisons, fats and excreta. Besides it negates the effects of harmful bacteria thus protecting from the diseases, cancer, diabetes and obesity. Present study aimed to investigate the in vitro and in vivo the effect of Arabic gum as exudates and different parts of the tree extracts; Aqueous, ethanol and Hexsane extracts of exudates, leaf, fruits and Bark of Arabic Gum tree as potential antibacterial against different several strains of pathogenic bacteria it was concluded that There was a strong inhibitory effect of aqueous, ethanol and hexane extracts of Arabic Gum exudates, leaf, fruit and bark on most of the gram positive and gram negative bacteria. The largest inhibition zones of bacterial strains were for Staphylococcus aureus, followed by Streptococcus pyogenes and Salmonella typhimurium while the smallest inhibition zones were for Yersinia pestis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus epidermidis. The three tested strains greatly inhibited due to the presence of Arabic Gum in diet of mice but with different degrees, make us noticed that the most bacterial strain affected was Streptococcus pyogenes followed by Staphylococcus aureus followed by Salmonella typhimurium.

Abstract: Salmonellosis is one of the most prevalent food borne diseases worldwide. Food animals have been identified as reservoirs for non-typhoid Salmonella infections. Several measures have been used to prevent and control Salmonella infections in poultry. Vaccination is the most practical measure and effective method to control and prevent Salmonellosis. Salmonella vaccines can decrease public health risk by reducing colonization and organ invasion, including reproductive tissues, and by diminishing fecal shedding and environmental contamination. This presentation discusses Salmonella vaccines and their immune mechanisms of protection.

Abstract: The aim of the present study was to assess the relationship between motor educability and academic achievement of adolescent students of Jammu and Kashmir. This study was carried out on 500 adolescent students studying in various schools operational in the State of Jammu and Kashmir. The sample comprises of 250 adolescent boys and 250 adolescent girls between the age range of 14 to 17 years. From each age group 50 adolescent students were selected. To assess motor educability of selected adolescent subjects Metheny-Johnson motor educability test was used. It is useful for age group 11 to adulthood. It consists of test items such as front roll, back roll, jumping half turns and jumping full terms for overall assessment of motor educability. Academic achievement of the selected subject was assessed by total marks obtained in previous year's examination. The total marks are then converted to have score out of 100 marks. 25th and 75th percentile scores on motor educability test were used to divide cases into high, average and low level of motor educability groups. One Way ANOVA reveals that adolescent students with high level of motor educability showed significantly superior academic performance as compared to adolescent students with average and low level of motor educability. It was also observed that academic achievement of adolescent students with average level of motor educability was significantly superior as compared to adolescent students with low level of motor educability. It was concluded that motor educability is one of the strong contributor towards academic achievement of adolescent students.

Abstract: The common medicinal Aloe had been known for quite a long time, as Aloe barbadensis by most formularies and reference books, until it was reduced to the synonymy of Aloe vera. Despite this, both taxa continued to be used as a matter of choice by different workers, as if they are distinct species, leading to confusion in the literature. The present study investigated aspects of the chemical constituents of young and old plants of the synonymous species, using standard procedures. This was to ascertain whether the findings would lend support to the view that both taxa are one species. Young and old Aloe barbadensis and A. vera leaves tested positive to alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, cardiac glycosides anthraquinones, saponins and negative to phlobatannins. Quantitative mineral assay showed the presence in varying levels, of micronutrients chromium, zinc and manganese and macronutrients calcium, potassium; and magnesium in both taxa. The findings in this study lend support to the view that both taxa are synonymous.

Abstract: Farming as a business is gaining more attention from Government as well as private establishment. The role of fish farming in the entire global development can not be underestimated. As part of vision 20:20:20, Federal Government is taking every predictable step to back her economic development. It was based on this that this research was coined out in other to actually know the effect of three different feeds i.e. copen, vital and local feeds the types of ponds constructed for catfish production. The data used was a primary data collected over a span of some months, the records obtained eventually gave room to the use of complete randomized design and t-test having satisfied all the assumptions and we discover that the three feeds have effects on the weight of catfish while types of pond and interaction between the two independent factors have no significant effect. It was further revealed through multiple comparisons that only copen and local feeds have significant effects on the weight of catfish. T-test analysis made us to realize that the average weight of catfish in both ponds are the same.

Abstract: The present study was carried out the find out the effect of age and physical activity status of elderly females. To conduct the study 250 physically active elderly women (Ave. age 64.11 yrs) and 250 elderly women with sedentary lifestyle (Ave. age 63.23 yrs.) were selected as sample. Mental health of selected subjects was assessed by PMHI prepared by Agashe and Helode (1998). Walking, light exercise, recreational activities and yoga on regular basis were considered as physical activity apart from day-to-day work. Analysis of data in the form 2x2 factorial design reveal significant main effect of physical activity status and age on mental health of elderly females. The main effect of physical activity status reveals that elderly females engaged in regular physical activity possess significantly more magnitude of mental health as compared to sedentary elderly females. The mental health of elderly females of 60-65 years age group was found to be significantly superior as compared to that of elderly females of 65-70 years age group. The two factor interaction effect age and physical activity status was not observed on mental health of elderly females. It was concluded that age and physical activity status alone and not in interaction with each other are significant contributors towards mental health in elderly females.

Abstract: Cancer is the general name for a group of more than 100 diseases. Although there are many kinds of cancer, all cancers start because abnormal cells grow out of control. Untreated cancers can cause serious illness and death. The body is made up of trillions of living cells. Normal body cells grow, divide, and die in an orderly fashion. During the early years of a person’s life, normal cells divide faster to allow the person to grow. After the person becomes an adult, most cells divide only to replace worn-out or dying cells or to repair injuries. This article introduces recent research reports as references in the related studies.
