Contribution of Muslim Women in Writing Field: A Survey Based on the Noorul Ain Najmul Husain Works
M.N.F. Farhana, M.N.P. Rifasha, P.M.A. Aleeshan, Mohamed Haniffa Mohamed Nairoos- April 2023 Page No.: 11-16
In the 21st century, the media is an instrument of vigilance. Historically, women’s contribution to the media has been marginal. In the 21st century, women’s contributions in the media industry began to increase after various struggles. As a result women are participating in various media activities. And although women have contributed massively to the success of modern media, men’s contribution to the media industry is greater than that of women. Moreover, many studies show that the contribution of women has not reached a significant level compared to the contribution of men. Nevertheless, the contributions of women can be particularly observed in the media industry in Sri Lanka. In this background, Kalapusanam Nurul Ain Najmul Husain is seen as one of the Muslim women writers in Sri Lanka not only in the field of poetry, but can also her contribution be seen in various fields like novels, short stories, magazines and newspapers. In this way, this research is a review with the main objective to identify the writing personalities of Kalapusanam Nurul Ain Najmul Husain. And, the study is qualitative and secondary data were used to achieve the task. Particularly the data has been reviewed through books, magazines, journals, internet articles, videos and presented through the narrative method. The study reveals that the personality is a famous writer in various fields such as newspapers, articles, magazines, poetry and short stories. Therefore, we hope that our study will identify the literary contribution of Kalapusanam Nurul Ain Najmul (Husain) and by reading such literary contribution, Muslim women in Sri Lanka will inspire future generations to follow the knowledge of the literary field.

Influence of Physico-functional Characteristics and Germination Effect on Gelation Property of Flour/Isolates from Two Varieties (DAS & BS) of Nigerian Cultivated Solojo Cowpea (Vigna Unguiculata L. Walp)
Olubamike A. ADEYOJU, Henry O. CHIBUDIKE, Bolanle O. OLUWOLE, Kayode O. ADEBOWALE and Chinedum E. CHIBUDIKE- April 2023 Page No.: 17-28
Influence of Physico-functional Characteristics and Germination Effect on Gelation Property of the floor and isolates from the two varieties (DAS & BS) of Nigeria cultivated solojo cowpeas were investigated. Results show that germination improved the gelation capacity of the FFDAS as it brought the Least Gelation Concentration (LGC) from 4%w/v to 2%w/v except for 6 h and 72 h germination; likewise, FFBS had its LGC improve with germination from 4%w/v to 2%w/v, except for 6 h. The protein isolates of DAS and BS also had improved LGC with germination, going from 14%w/v to 6%w/v and 16%w/v to 8%w/v respectively. Gelation property of raw (native/ control) and germinated Dark-ash Solojo Cowpea (FFDAS, DFDAS, FFBS and DFBS flours; DAS and BS protein isolate) was influenced by germination and physico-functional characteristics. The four flour samples, FFDAS, DFDAS, FFBS and DFBS as well as the two protein isolates exhibited some variations in gelation property. The protein isolates gave stiff paste instead of regular gel, going from, DAS, 18 – 4% and BS, 18 – 6%. Disparity in gelling properties observed, may be as a result of the proportion of diverse components for example proteins, fat and carbohydrate in the various legume flours. The prevalent charges on the exterior of the proteins, which is affected by pH, causes variation in the balance between the polar and non-polar residues, thereby bringing about differences in gelation.

Mathematical Model and Simulation of Blood Flow Dynamics in Renal Interlobar Artery of Patients with Human immunodeficiency Virus
Abubakar, U., Ugwu, A. C., Tivde, T. and Mbah, GCE- April 2023 Page No.: 40-54
Mathematical models were developed considering wall movement, blood pulsation and flow dynamics of the blood in the interlobar artery. The formulated models were based on the fact that the motion of blood vessel wall is not only influenced by pulsation, but also other physiological processes like heartbeat, breathing, and body posture. The Newton’s second Law of motion was employed in assembling the forces acting on the interlobar artery. The wall shear stress (WSS) was studied alongside, arterial walls to study the actual flow dynamics and investigate the blood flow behaviour. The results of the study were presented on both two – dimensional (2D) and three (3D) – dimensional graphs showing a more realistic interaction between the arterial wall and the blood flow in patients with HIV/AIDS. It was deduced that the blood flow velocity decreased with time across the varying frequency from 0.20Hz to 0.50Hz in the interlobar arterial channel.

A Study of The Hole Barrier of Kanthal on Silicon Using Current – Voltage Characteristics
S. P. Kashinje- April 2023 Page No.: 55-61
We report fabrication of a kanthal pSi diode and a study of its hole barrier by Current – Voltage characteristics. The diode fabrication was done by sputter-depositing a kanthal film on a single crystalline p – type Si in the <111> orientation. Kanthal is a metal alloy consisting of 70.6% Iron, 24.1% Chromium, 4.8% Aluminum and 0. 5% Co. The hole barrier on kanthal was determined by I – V characteristics to be ФBh=0.66±0.03 eV. The Rutherford Back Scattering Analysis shows that the composition of the sputtered kanthal films and the parent target are the same.

Linear models for Predicting body weight in crossbred chickens
U.C. Isaac, A. I. Adeolu- April 2023 Page No.: 62-70
Prediction of body weight with linear body measurements of 531day-old crossbred chickens was determined by stepwise regression analysis for mixed sexes at 4 and 8 weeks and separate sexes at 12, 16 and 20 weeks. Shank length was the best single predictor of body weight in Isa Brown x naked neck (IBxNa) at 4 weeks (coefficient of determination, R2 = 65%) and in feathered x Isa Brown (FxIB) at 8 weeks (R2 = 96%). In males, body weight was best predicted by drumstick length (DL) in IBxNa (R2 = 90%) at 12 weeks and in Isa Brown x frizzle feathered (IBxF) at 16 (R2 = 85%) and 20 (R2 = 81%) weeks. The best single predictors of body weight in females were body length (BL) (R2 = 91%), body girth (BG) (R2 = 90%) and body width (BW) (R2 = 90%) in naked neck x Isa Brown (NaxIB) at 12, 16 and 20 weeks, respectively. The best partial predictors of body weight were BG and wing length at 4 weeks (R2 =97%) and BG, BL and keel length (KL) at 8 weeks (R2 =97%) in IBxF; BW and DL (R2 =76%) in normal feathered x Isa Brown (NxIB) males at 16 weeks and BW and DL (R2 =97%) in NxIB females at 20 weeks. The higher R2 values obtained in the models for females made prediction of their body weight more accurate than that of the males. In general, the R2 of mixed sexes ranged from 50-97% and 62-97% at 4 and 8 weeks and for males and females, it ranged from 50-90% and 57-91%; 51-85% and 53-90%; 49-81% and 51-90% at 12, 16 and 20 weeks, respectively. Body weight was best predicted at 8 weeks, and irrespective of genotype, sex and age, the best predictors in single or partial state were BG, BL, KL, BW and DL.

Combined Effect of Doses of Fertilizer and Different Densities on Agronomic Parameters of Rice (Oryza sativa (L.)) Adapted in Humid Area in The Valley of Benoué, Cameroon
Philémon Kaouvon; Dikko Haicha; Bertrand Wang-Bara; Cyrille Woulbo Biyack; Yvonne Djeoufo- April 2023 Page No.: 83-91
The study was conducted on July 2021, at the Institute of Agricultural Research for Development (IRAD). The main objective of the study was to determine the dose of mineral fertilizers and densities which respond well to the rice culture, variety Nerica L36 in a humid area of the valley of Benoué. Fertilizers doses were: T1 (0 kg NPKSB+100 Kg Urea/ha); T2 (150 kg NPKSB+100 Kg Urea/ha); T3 (200 kg NPKSB+100 Kg Urea/ha; T4 (250 kg NPKSB+100 Kg Urea/ha). Three densities were considered: De1= 20 cm x 20 cm; De2= 25cm x 25cm; De3= 30 cm x 30 cm. The experimental design was a split-plot, with two factors in three replications: Factor 1 concerning fertilizers doses and Factor 2 relating to densities. Evaluation parameters were: the height of plant, the number of tillers, the number of panicle/plants, length of panicles, heading date at 80 % and maturity date. Harvest data collected were: the number of grains/panicles, weight of 1000 grains, potential yields. The results showed that the effect of different amounts especially doses 2, 3 and 4 were highly significant (P≤0.05) in influencing the height of plant, number of tillers, number of panicles/plants, length of panicles for all densities. These densities were considered suitable for growing aspect of rice. On the other hand, the densities 1 and 2 were suitable for the element of heading date at 80 % for the doses 1 and 2, maturity date with dose 1. However, yield aspects were most significant (P≤0.05) with the dose 2, 3 and 4 on a number of grains/panicles and potential yield especially, which permit us to deduce that densities 1, 2 and 3 were suitable for these yield parameters

Reduction of Active and Reactive Power Losses on Transmission Lines using SSSC
J.I Uzor, D. C. Oyiogu, C.O. Ikaraoha- April 2023 Page No.: 92-108
This paper discusses a comprehensive study on reduction of power (active and reactive) losses in transmission lines using a second generation FACTS device, Static Synchronons Series Compensator (SSSC). Modern restructured power systems sometimes operate with heavily loaded lines resulting in power losses and higher voltage deviations, which may lead to mal-operation of power system and eventual collapse of the system. This is mainly due to continuous and uncertain growth in demand for electrical power. The paper presents a methodology to solve the problem of power losses in the Nigerian 28 – bus power system by incorporating Static Synchronons Series Compensator in the network using Newton-Rahson power flow algorithm. Simulation of power flow solution without and with the FACTS device was done using a Matlab software. The results showed that the maximum power (active and reactive) loss in the system without SSSC occurred in the transmission line connecting bus 17 (Jebba) to bus 23(Shiroro) and a 19.32% loss reduction was obtained on the line after the incorporation of the SSSC FACTS device giving a power saving of 80.68%. The total system active and reactive power losses before the application of SSSC was 205.183MW and 1594.683MVAR respectively. However, when the FACTS device was applied at the weak buses the total system active and reactive power losses reduced to 144.571MW and 1136.863MVAR respectively giving a percentage loss reduction in active and reactive power of 29.54% and 28.71% respectively resulting in a power saving of 70.46% and 71.29%. Hence, more power was available in the network when compared to the base case due to the installation of SSSC. Also an improvement in the voltage magnitude at the weak buses and other buses were noticed as they were all maintained at 1.0 PU.

Incidences and Trend of Marine Accident Fatalities in Various River Routes Connecting the Major Sea Ports of Nigeria
Ogboeli, Goodluck, Prince, Iyama, William Azuka and Onuegbu, Williams- April 2023 Page No.: 109-122
The study investigated the incidences and trends of marine accident fatalities in various river routes connecting the major sea ports in Nigeria. This was necessitated by the various cases of deaths, drop in government revenue and presence of wrecks from abandoned boats and ships in the coastal waters. The cross-sectional survey research design was adopted relying on both primary, secondary data and the use hypothesis to draw conclusions. Primary data was got through acquisition from satellite imageries from the loading and exit point of various river routes and designed questionnaires distributed while secondary data such as accident and disaster occurrence was collected several marine sector regulatory agencies in charge of the marine sector for a period of thirty (30) years (1989 to 2018). The study showed that river route incidence is dependent primarily on the population of the destination route and its frequency of usage. Although, other factors such as poor visibility, channel width and sharp bends, inaccurate meanders and over speeding increased its probability of occurrences. Study also found that areas without alternative transport route experienced high incidences of boat accidents compared to areas with road transport exits that suffer exorbitant fair and proximity challenges. There was no statistically significant relationship between the length of the water route and the frequency of incidence (r=0.006; p>0.05). Hence study recommends that Security agencies in charge of maritime routes should be equipped with modern surveillance gadgets, combatant firearm, and warships to enhance maritime security and other response operations.

Experimental Analysis of Gaseous Emission in 2-Stroke Single Cylinder Engine Using Ethanol Gasoline Blends
Nwafor Uzoma and Mohammed Moore Ojapah- April 2023 Page No.: 123-136
The emission of Unburnt Hydrocarbon (UHC), Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx), Carbon Monoxide (CO), and Carbon Dioxide (CO2) from internal combustion engine have been seen to cause negative environmental impact and a major source of greenhouse effect. This paper provides a better understanding and strategies for use of biofuel ethanol as a blend with gasoline to reduce emissions in 2-stroke engine small power generaor. An experimental study on a single cylinder domestic portable power generating set of fixed speed has been used with gasoline ethanol blends in ratio of 100% gasoline (E0), 50% gasoline ethanol blends (E50) and 100% ethanol (E100) under varying engine loads. The results showed that the CO and HC emission decreases as a result of the leaning effect caused by the ethanol addition. The CO2 emission was also observed to increase because of the improved combustion as a result of leaning effect of ethanol addition, in particular the E100. The NOx emission for E100 shows the most interesting result of decreasing from idle load to zero at the maximum load.

Background: Malaria deaths in the world have remained worrisome for many decades to centuries now. The issue of its prevention pre pregnancy, during pregnancy and post pregnancy periods needs continuous emphasis especially in our endemic areas. This will help us achieve the desired goals of eliminating malaria menace in Sub-Saharan Africa. The benefits of malaria prevention in helping to reduce the problems of malaria in pregnancy though proven needs continuous emphasis. The problems of prolonged maternal malaria illnesses especially if left untreated during pregnancy may include but not limited to preterm labours / births, pregnancy anaemias, small for date babies, high rates of admissions into special care baby units (SCBU) and intrauterine deaths. The above have been greatly reduced by concurrent practice of preventive measures like the now in use, Intermittent Preventive Treatment with Sulphadoxine Pyrimethamine (IPT-SP). It has also been noted that optimal levels of antioxidant status like Ascorbic acid (Vitamin C), Superoxide Dismutase, Glutathione Peroxidase have shown great promises in assisting our pregnant women enjoy uneventful pregnancies as well as avert most other pregnancy associated problems. Top on the list of which are maternal and neonatal anaemias, preterm labours and births, intrauterine growth restrictions (IUGR), increased admissions into special care baby units and even neonatal deaths to mention but a few.
Objectives: This study made a comparative assessment of the plasma Ascorbic acid levels in parturients who judiciously received IPT-SP during their current confinements and their controls.
Method: We carried out this study at the Federal Medical Centre (FMC) which is located in Owerri, the state capital of Imo state Nigeria. Owerri is noted to have a typical malaria endemic setting as with most parts of our African sub rejoin. Ethical certification was sought for and obtained from the ethics committee of the hospital enabling the commencement of a longitudinal participant recruitment after adequate counseling and informed consent. This involved both groups. The study was a laboratory based, cross-sectional descriptive study that involving 296 participants that satisfied set out inclusion criteria for one of the groups as allotted. Participants were followed up following recruitment throughout their antenatal course till delivery. This enabled a dutiful collection of blood samples for the estimation of Ascorbic acid. Vitamin C estimation was done using the Omaye, Turabull & Sanberlish method, 1979. The methodology principle is based on the fact that Ascorbic acid is oxidized by copper to form dehydroascorbic acid. The product when treated with 2, 4 dinitrophenyl hydrazine forms tris 2, 4 dinitrophenyl hydrazone which undergoes rearrangement to form a product with the absorption maximum at 520 nm in spectrophotometer.
Data analysis: Computer Software Package for Social Science (SPSS) version 20.0 (SPSS, Chicago) was used to analyze obtained data. The descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation, range, percentages etc) were determined for continuous variables, while a P-value less than (<0.05) at 95% confidence interval was considered statistically significant.
Result: The mean ascorbic acid value was lower among the study group than the control. Mean ascorbic acid value for the study group was 1.75 ± 0.67 while the minimum and maximum serum ascorbic acid levels were 0.064 and 3.29 respectively. From the control group, the mean ascorbic acid level was 2.03 ± 0.68 while the minimum and maximum serum ascorbic acid levels were 0.056 and 3.75 respectively. From the results above, the mean difference of 0.28 was found to be statistically significant with (p value= 0.001) with an odds ratio of 0.54 (95% CI =0.380 – 0.771).

Background: The issue of malaria prevention in endemic areas during antenatal periods needs continuous emphasis so as to achieve its desired goals. Its roles in reducing the problems of malaria in pregnancy has been proven. The problems of anaemia in pregnancy, preterm labours, small for gestational age babies have been greatly reduced by adequate practice of Intermittent Preventive Treatment with Sulphadoxine Pyrimethamine (IPT-SP). It is also advocated that optimal levels of antioxidants like Total Antioxidant status (TAC/TAS) is necessary to assist pregnant women enjoy uneventful pregnancies as well as avert other problems associated with pregnancy. Such problems may include preterm births, neonatal anaemias, intrauterine growth retardations (IUGR), increased admissions into special care baby units and even neonatal deaths.
Objectives: We have comparatively studied the plasma Total Antioxidant Capacity / Status levels in parturients who received intermittent preventive treatment with sulphadoxine pyrimethamine (IPT-SP), and their controls during current confinements.
Method: This study was carried out at the Federal Medical Centre (FMC), Owerri Nigeria. Owerri, the capital of Imo state Nigeria and has a typical malaria endemic setting as seen in most parts of Sub-Saharan Africa. Ethical clearance and subsequent certification were obtained from the ethics committee of FMC Owerri enabling the commencement of the longitudinal recruitment of participants. This was after an adequate counseling and informed consent involving both groups. As a laboratory based, cross-sectional descriptive study, it involved 296 participants who clearly satisfied the inclusion criteria for either the study or control groups as allotted longitudinal. Participants were followed up after recruitment through their entire antenatal course till delivery to enable collection of blood samples for the estimation of Total Antioxidant Status/Capacity which was done using the Ferric Reducing Ability of Plasma, FRAP; by (Benzie and Strain, 1996). The methodology principle is based on the fact that at low pH, antioxidant power causes the reduction of ferric tripyridyl triazine (Fe III TPTZ) complex to ferrous form (which has an intense blue colour) that can be monitored by measuring the change in absorption at 593nm. FRAP values are obtained by comparing the absorbance change at 593 nm in mixture (test), with those containing ferrous ion in known concentration (Standard).
Data analysis: The data obtained was analysis using the computer Software Package for Social Science (SPSS) version 20.0 (SPSS, Inc, 2007, Chicago) while the descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation, range, percentages etc) were determined for continuous variables. P-value less than (<0.05) at 95% confidence interval was considered statistically significant.
Result: The mean serum level of total antioxidant status (TAS) in the study group was 846.55 umol/l while the minimum and maximum serum Total antioxidant status were 706 and 991 umol/l respectively. For their controls, the mean serum level of Total antioxidant status was 833.70 umol/l. However, the minimum and maximum serum Total antioxidant statuses were 291 and 1065 umol/l respectively. The difference was not statistically significant (p= 0.167) with odds ratio 1.00 (CI of 95% 0.997-1.006).

Comprehensive Review on Advanced Adversarial Attack and Defense Strategies in Deep Neural Network
Oliver Smith, Anderson Brown- April 2023 Page No.: 156-166
In adversarial machine learning, attackers add carefully crafted perturbations to input, where the perturbations are almost imperceptible to humans, but can cause models to make wrong predictions. In this paper, we did comprehensive review of some of the most recent research, advancement and discoveries on adversarial attack, adversarial sampling generation, the potency or effectiveness of each of the existing attack methods, we also did comprehensive review on some of the most recent research, advancement and discoveries on adversarial defense strategies, the effectiveness of each defense methods, and finally we did comparison on effectiveness and potency of different adversarial attack and defense methods. We came to conclusion that adversarial attack will mainly be blackbox for the foreseeable future since attacker has limited or no knowledge of gradient use for NN model, we also concluded that as dataset becomes more complex, so will be increase in demand for scalable adversarial defense strategy to mitigate or combat attack, and we strongly recommended that any neural network model with or without defense strategy should regularly be revisited, with the source code continuously updated at regular interval to check for any vulnerability against newer attack.

Understanding Kenyan Politics: The Case of Deputy Presidency from 1963 to 2022
Tinashe Gumbo- April 2023 Page No.: 167-173
According to Kenyan Constitution (2010, Section 147), the duties of the Deputy President (previously Vice President) include assisting the President with administrative tasks, representing the President in international forums, and filling any vacancies that may occur in the event that the current President passes away, is impeached, or is found guilty. The Deputy President is thus the second-highest political official in Kenya. Hence, the Vice President is Kenya’s second-highest elected office. He or she is the President’s assistant. Yet, since independence, there have consistently been disputes in Kenya between the State Presidents who have led the country successively and their deputies. This article attempts at finding the root that defines the disputes. The article also argues that while the Kenyans changed their constitution in 2010, the issue did not improve, instead, it became worse since the Deputy President is now being protected by the constitution from being dismissed by the President. Thus, continued friction has a serious impact on the lives of ordinary people. The article is hinged on desk review and some insights observed by the author as an “outsider” who resided in that country. The article is a modification of the essay developed and shared in public through the author’s blog in 2022 as Kenya prepared for its general elections. The feedback received from the readers further shaped the article in its current form. The article takes a historical approach as it tracks the key events from 1963 to 2022 with regard to the two offices in Kenya. It concludes that the problem emanated from ambitious deputies but was also amplified by the insecurities felt by the successive Presidents. The article recommends a review of the constitution to allow members of the public to decide on the fate of a deputy president in extreme cases.

Cannabis sativa: Botany, Cross Pollination and Plant Breeding Problems
Ravindra B. Malabadi, Kiran P. Kolkar, Raju K. Chalannavar, Lavanya L, Gholamreza Abdi- April 2023 Page No.: 174-190
This review paper highlights about the Cannabis botany, problems of cross pollination, lack of Germplasm collection and absence of Genebank facilities have been discussed. Cannabis is a dioecious species, meaning that male and female flowers are borne on separate plants. The risk of cross-pollination in Cannabis is one of the unique major challenge in Cannabis industry. More research can be conducted to assess the risk of cross-pollination in Cannabis and policy should be created to mitigate that risk. Cannabis research work remains years behind than other crops because of the long legacy of prohibition and stigmatization. However, lack of public germplasm repositories remains an unresolved problem in the Cannabis industry. Therefore, accessible germplasm resources are crucial for long-term economic viability, preserving genetic diversity, breeding, innovation, and long-term sustainability of the Cannabis crop. Germplasm accessions are the building blocks for breeding of new cultivars. However, there are no public seed or Clonal gene banks for Medical Cannabis sativa (marijuana or drug type). On the other hand there are some public hemp collections. Despite its economic, medicinal, and societal importance, Medical Cannabis sativa (marijuana or drug type) is missing from the list of available species in public Genebanks and only exist as private collections. Most of the Cannabis varieties in the market today are hybrids (700 hybrid strains) with both Cannabis sativa and Cannabis indica genetics. Hence there should be a public Cannabis Genebanks to play a fuller and more effective role in conservation, sustainable use, and exchange of Cannabis genetic resources.

Performance Evaluation of Local Binary Patterns LBP for Copy-Move Forgery Detection in Digital Images: A Comparative Study
Hlaing Htake Khaung Tin- April 2023 Page No.: 195-202
Copy-move forgery is a type of image tampering that involves copying a portion of an image and pasting it to another part of the same image with the intention of deceiving the viewer. In recent years, many approaches have been proposed to detect copy-move forgery, including those based on local binary patterns (LBP). In this paper, we perform a comprehensive evaluation of LBP-based methods for copy-move forgery detection using a dataset of 50 digital images. We compare the performance of four LBP-based methods, namely LBP, SIFT and SURF using metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score. Our results show that LBP outperforms the other methods in terms of accuracy and F1-score, while SIFT has the highest precision and recall. We also investigate the effect of various parameters, such as patch size and threshold values, on the performance of LBP. Our study provides valuable insights into the strengths and weaknesses of LBP-based methods for copy-move forgery detection, which can guide future research in this area. This study evaluates the performance of Local Binary Patterns (LBP) for detecting copy-move forgery in digital images. LBP is a widely used feature extraction technique in image processing and has been applied to various computer vision tasks, including forgery detection. The comparative study involves analyzing the accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score of LBP and other popular forgery detection techniques, including SIFT and SURF, using a dataset of 50 digital images. The results show that LBP performs better than the other techniques, achieving an accuracy of 96.6%, precision of 94.0%, recall of 100%, and F1-score of 96.9%. This study provides useful insights for researchers and practitioners in the field of forgery detection, particularly for those interested in using LBP as a feature extraction technique.

The Beneficial Effect of The Yeast Enriched with Nano Zinc Particles on Mineral Status of Grape Seedlings
Rasha, S. Abdel-Hak, Shimaa, R. Hamed, Saleh, M.M.S., Merwad, M.A.- April 2023 Page No.: 203-211
This investigation included two integrated experiments, the first one is the microbiological experiment that carried out in Microbial Biotechnology Department, NRC, Cairo, Egypt, where multiple incorporation strategies were used for production zinc oxide Nanoparticles by enrichment of yeast with zinc including; (1): In the first procedure, zinc was added to the liquid medium just after the yeast was inoculated (growth phase), (2): For integration, it was added after 24 h of incubation (non-growth phase) in the second procedure. The obtained results showed that the first method (growth phase) was adopted in order to reduce the chance of medium contamination. Zinc sulphate has no passive effect on yeast cell biomass. The second experiment is horticultural one which was done in National Research Centre greenhouse on Flame seedless grape seedlings which included five treatments as follows: control (spraying with water only), frozen yeast enriched with zinc (as foliar spray), active yeast enriched with zinc (as foliar spray), frozen yeast enriched with zinc (as soil application) and active yeast enriched with zinc (as soil application). When zinc content in the grape leaves as ppm was examine after 15 days, the results showed that active fresh yeast enriched with zinc that treated as foliar spray recorded the highest rate of zinc in grape leaves (180 ppm), followed by active fresh yeast enriched with zinc as soil application which recorded 170.8 ppm. On the other hand, the untreated plants (control) showed the lowest value of zinc in the leaves (91.6 ppm) when compared with the other treatments.

Improving Concrete Strength with Bamboo (Bambuseae) Fibers
Rey Avila Mangarin, Rex Normandy Pagas, Keith Cyruz Chua- April 2023 Page No.: 212-216
This research study aims to determine the effectiveness of using the Bamboo (Bambuseae) Fibers as medium for enhancing the durability and strength of the concrete and compare it to the common ones without fibers. This study utilized the experimental approach in quantitative research to ensure the fairness of the result. The study was conducted in Sto. Tomas National High School last September 2018. To test the effectiveness of the fiber to the concrete, the researchers conducted a 6-feet drop test along with the ones without fibers. The data gathered were analyzed using Chi- square test to determine the significant effect of the bamboo fiber in enhancing the concrete cement. It was found out that the concrete with fiber is more durable than the ones without fibers after the Drop test. This study encourages the use of bamboo fibers to enhance the strength and durability of the concrete.

Capacity Building Needed by Retirees in Snail Production for Poverty Alleviation in Benue State, Nigeria
Gbeyongu Frederick Terkimbi, Ngbongha Innocent Okpa, Onu Deborah Ogbene, and Dahiru Daniel Ada- April 2023 Page No.: 217-226
This paper focused on capacity building needed by retirees in snail production in Benue state, Nigeria. Four objectives with corresponding research questions guided the study with hypotheses tested at 0.05 level of significance. The study adopted a descriptive survey research design with a sample of one hundred and twenty (120) respondents for data collection. Instrument titled: Capacity Building for Retirees in Snail Production (CBRSP) was structured by the researcher from the literature reviewed and face validated by three experts. The internal consistency of the instrument was determined using cronbach alpha with a coefficient of 0.82 obtained. The data collected was analyzed using frequency, mean and standard deviation to answer research questions while Chi square was used to test the null hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance. It was observed that twelve (12) capacities in rearing snails, ten (10) in harvesting snail products, seven (7) capacities in poverty alleviation and thirteen (13) constraints faced by retirees were all needed for effective snail production in Benue State. It was recommended amongst others that seminars, symposium and workshops be organized by Government and Non-Governmental Organizations to train their workforce in snail production before proceeding to retire them so that they can have a skill and be useful to themselves and the society after retirement.

Quality of groundwater from five different locations in Badagry Local Government Area of Lagos State, Nigeria
Olusegun Samuel Tunde, Fadimu Oladayo Kehinde, Olokode Hammed Adeyinka, Nwadike Solomon Chukwuka- April 2023 Page No.: 232-235
This study was carried out to investigate the quality of groundwater from five different locations in Badagry Local Government Area of Lagos State, Nigeria. Fifty borehole water samples were collected and analyzed to ensure safe and continuous consumption by residents in the communities. The investigated physico-chemical parameters include: p H, alkalinity, total hardness, and anions (nitrate, sulphate and chloride). The presence of metals such as Cu, Cr, Cd and Pb, were also determined, using Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS).
The highest mean concentrations values for alkalinity, total hardness, calcium, magnesium, chloride, sulphate, nitrate, cadmium, chromium, copper, and lead were: 137.5,155.2,129.00,43.10,42.39,2.68,20.980.0167,0.0145,0.42 and 0.016 mg/L respectively. The highest pH was also observed to be 7.34. Of all the measured parameters, two of the five distinct locations did not fall within the WHO/NAFDAC permissible limits. The Results of this research activity have therefore shown that all the water samples fell within the physicochemical standard limits for drinking water, but are not recommended for drinking purposes, as they all contain one or more of the trace elements.

Medical Cannabis sativa (Marijuana or drug type): Psychoactive molecule, Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9-THC)
Ravindra B. Malabadi, Kiran P. Kolkar, Raju K. Chalannavar, Lavanya L, Gholamreza Abdi- April 2023 Page No.: 236-249
This review paper highlights about Medical Cannabis sativa (Marijuana or drug type) containing psychoactive molecule, Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9-THC) as a part of educational awareness programme in India. Cannabis sativa and Cannabis indica were originally a native of India growing as a wild notorious noxious weed in the Indian Himalayan region. Marijuana (Charas, Ganja and Bhang in India) is a mind-altering (psychoactive) drug, produced by the Cannabis sativa plant. Marijuana (Charas, Ganja or Bhang drink in India) is an illicit drug containing very high levels (25-35%) of narcotic psychoactive molecule, Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9-THC) is banned and prohibited in India. Import, export, local sales and cultivation of Cannabis are illegal and prohibited in India. Phytocannabinoids (Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinol-Δ9-THC, and Cannabidiol- CBD) have attained a global attention recently due to the therapeutic potentials in Parkinson’s disease, Schizophrenia, cancers, pain, anxiety, depression other neurological disorders as well as the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of Epidiolex for Dravet syndrome and Lennox-Gauss Syndrome. Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9-THC) is known as the substance that makes a person feel a “high,” while Cannabidiol (CBD) often promotes a feeling of relaxation. However, the adverse effects of Marijuana (medicinal cannabis) comes from studies of recreational users of marijuana led to the impaired short-term memory; impaired motor coordination; altered judgment; and paranoia or psychosis at high doses. The quality control of Cannabis products, contamination and adulteration of Cannabis products in Cannabis industry is another major issue. Therefore, a detailed study with clinical trials is warranted and this knowledge should be shared and explained to the customers.

The Rise of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in HealthCare Industry
Destiny Ogaga, Haoning Zhao- April 2023 Page No.: 250-253
In this study, we examine some of the recent advancement in health care system as regards the rise of artificial intelligence. We analyzed background knowledge and review many literatures to examine some real world application of artificial intelligence for treatment, diagnoses, and prediction of diseases.
As healthcare industries continues to embrace artificial intelligence to improve the quality of healthcare services, machine learning for prediction and diagnoses of treatment. All together, these create a new window of opportunities as well as challenges to overcome. We dived into how healthcare industry had been affected by the rise of AI technologies, what technologies are used and how they function, the limitations of AI technologies in healthcare, the future prospects of AI technologies in healthcare as it continue to advance and mature, and also the social and ethical implications of AI in healthcare system. There is clear evidence that continuous advancement of AI and machine learning will raise the operational efficiency of healthcare and its allied providers.

Assessment of Knowledge, Attitude and Practices of Prevention of Mother to Child Transmission of HIV/AIDS among Student Nurses in Bauchi State College of Nursing and Midwifery, Nigeria
Dr Mahmood Danasabe, Mrs Rakiya Saleh, Mr. Bappah Baba Waziri, Muhammad Adamu- April 2023 Page No.: 254-268
Women with pregnancy that are having human immuno-deficiency virus (HIV) infection have a greater chance of transmitting the virus to their children. Majority of the transmission happens during pregnancy, labour and delivery and during lactation. The health workers, especially, nurse/midwife play a crucial part in prevention of mother to child transmission. The adequate knowledge, attitude and practices of the student nurses assumed to predict effective and efficient prevention of the transmission of the virus. This research assessed the knowledge, attitude and practice of student nurses/midwives in the State college of nursing and midwifery Bauchi towards the prevention of mother-to-child-transmission (PMTCT) of HIV/AIDS. The study is a descriptive cross-sectional survey with a sample of fifty students’ nurses’/midwives participated in the study analysis. Data was collected through a self-modified questionnaire that measured knowledge, attitude and practices based on percentage. Analysis was done using descriptive statistics of frequency count and percentages in answering the research questions. The mean age of respondents was 26 ± 2 years. The result of the study shows that many students nurses have low information on PMTCT. However, many sources of information did not indicate significantly to improved knowledge of the participants as shown by their low knowledge on PMTCT of HIV (66.7%). The study further reveals a general negativism in the attitudes (41.8%) of respondents towards prevention of mother to child transmission of HIV. Greater percentage of the respondents showed a negative attitude towards pregnant women living with HIV/AIDS. The practice of PMTCT was generally very low (56.6%). This study demonstrates that nurses in State college are insufficiently informed on practical issues in the prevention of MTCT of HIV. Hence, are weak to play an effective role in this important aspect of prevention of HIV. Sensitization, capacity building and appropriate clinical settings remain essential for significant outcomes.

Molecular Characterization of Lactic Acid Producing Bacteria Isolated from Tiger nut (Cyperus esculentus L) tuber and Soybean (Glycine max L) seeds
Abu, M. A., Amakoromo, E. R. and Eruteya, O. C.- April 2023 Page No.: 269-275
Lactic acid-producing bacteria (LAB) are a diverse group of bacteria which play a crucial role in fermentation processes. They produce lactic acid a primary product of fermentation, by exploiting food substances like carbohydrates proteins and lipids, leading to the production of secondary metabolites such as alcohols, aldehydes, acids, esters and Sulphur. The aim of this study was to characterize lactic acid bacterial isolated from tiger nut tubers (Cyperus esculentus L) and soybean seeds (Glycine max L), using 16S rRNA gene. Lactic acid production was determined by titrimetric method from 0 to 48h. Four of the ten isolates, identified as: Lactobacillus plantarum strain AMA2A, L. fermentum strain AMA5, L. buchneri strain AMA11 and L. plantarum strain AMA14 produced percentage lactic acid of 1.27, 0.93, 0.86 and 0.92 respectively after 48h. This study has demonstrated that the lactic acid producing bacteria namely: Lactobacillus plantarum AMA2A, Lactobacillus fermentum AMA5, Lactobacillus buchneri AMA11 and Lactobacillus plantarum AMA14 could be isolated from tiger nut and soybean since these substrates contain sufficient ingredients or nutrients which serve as enabling environments for their proliferation

Dr. V. Kumar, Dr. Partha Sarathi Chakraborty, Dr. Dulal Krishna Mandal, Dr. Nallusamy- April 2023 Page No.: 276-301
The transportation segment is the single biggest customer of oil determined vitality. Generally, fluid hydrocarbons have developed as the essential transportation fuel in light of their high vitality content per unit volume and as a result of the effortlessness of fluid fuel dealing with and conveyance frameworks rather than those required for strong or vaporous energizes. Thus, our present day transportation control plants have been intended to utilize fluid powers and oil refiners have, through a transformative procedure, been fitting to meet the prerequisites of cylinder motors. This fitting of the fuel to meet motor necessities must be reevaluated. As a transitional procedure, other vitality sources must be looked for which can be utilized as a part of altered cylinder motors. This transitional procedure could most recent a very long while as new but unclear, transportation frameworks are produced.
