Using London as the backdrop, this book entails the journey of budding detectives who embark on a journey to unveil the heist of a precious stone by the most notorious criminals of London. Interestingly, all the characters are animals and birds, portrayed as if the story treats them as human beings.
The objective of the book is to document best practices in managing the major irrigation canal systems to maximise the benefits to farmers in terms of increase in utilization of irrigation potential created under the major irrigation projects. The main emphasis on how best we can manage local canal systems to increase farmers incomes in a sustainable way in a multi-stakeholder perspectives which include farmers, water users associations, irrigation department officials, agricultural officers and local non-governmental organisations involved in farmers welfare.
When Vikram moved into the big city, he expected to hate it and be miserable. He desperately wanted to go back to his home town. But what he didn't expect, was to make new friends, meet interesting people, get into trouble, fall headlong into an unexpected adventure and love every minute of it.
Nanoparticles have received much attention recently due to their use in cancer therapy. Studies have shown that different metal oxide nanoparticles induce cytototoxicity in cancer cells. Drug delivery systems are designed to achieve drug therapeutic index and enhance the efficacy of controlled drug release targeting with specificity and selectivity by successful delivery of therapeutic agents at the desired sites without affecting the non-diseased neighbouring cells or tissues. In this work, nano-titanium dioxide, as anatase phase, was obtained by the sol-gel method with a cleaner technology a bio-extract obtained from the plant Artemisia pallens containing poly alcohols- used as a solvent, the structural, optical, particle size and the morphological properties of TiO2 nanoparticles were analyzed using x-ray diffraction data, scanning electron microscope. The green TiO2 nanoparticles had a bandgap of 3.2 eV. The fourier transformer infra red spectroscopy (FT-IR) shows a single band attributed to TiO2 using the simple aqueous based organic solvent free approach is further used as nano carriers for drug delivery system. Also we have developed and demonstrated a bio-based titanium dioxide that can be loaded with anticancer drug and selectively deliver it to cancer cells with high specificity by achieving the effective cervical cancer cell death without inducing specific toxicity. The study showed that the DOX loaded TiO2 nanocrystals has promising applications in delivery of anticancer drugs.
The book contains thirty-four poems with various themes. It mainly focuses on various global issues like water scarcity, poverty, male chauvinism, environmental issues, and oppressed groups. It talks about Indian issues like casteism, exploitation, love, donation of organs, river-linking project issues, animal killing, female infanticide, etc.
Trisha knows she isn't a kid anymore. Maybe she isn't exactly an adult woman yet but she is really ready to move on. She often worries that she isn't getting breasts like most of her friends. She is worried lest she should be the first one in the whole class to get periods or maybe the last one or…what if she got her first period right in the middle of the class and bleed right through her pants and everyone saw it…what if her pad someday fell out of her bag? OMG! This was the day. 'Mom, what if I get it in the class?' she had expressed her deep most concern to her Mum one day. 'If you get cramps in the class, tell the teacher you have a headache and ask to go to the nurse's office.' 'And what am I to tell the nurse?' Trisha had asked foolishly. 'Tell the nurse the truth of-course, but you don't have to announce to the whole class that you have menstrual cramps.' … Periods. Acne. Body-odour. Unwanted hair. And…much more. Those are the biggies every girl in the class is wondering about.Learn more about this book at:www.firefliesmk.com
