The effluent from textile dyeing industry have negative impact on environment pollution. Most of the industry use reactive dye and this dye produce effluent after dyeing. In this work, the dye bath of reactive dyeing used again without draining them. Because of the hydrolysis of residual reactive dyes due to the fixation conditions and because of relatively large amounts of dyes and salts left in the effluent. Two reactive dyes are Reactive Red & Reactive Yellow and Two materials: Nylon, Silk as well as Silk fiber & Nylon Yarn, were examined. It is shown that when using suitable dyeing conditions such that by controlling pH and temperature hydrolyzed reactive dye baths could be reused for silk and nylon dyeing with very good wash and moderate colorfastness.

The management process of the Marunda STIP Meteor journal is still conducted conventionally. The process of publishing journals is done separately, takes a long time and makes it difficult in the coordination process. In addition, the article published by the Marunda STIP Meteor Journal cannot be accessed online. The e journal application is an application that is able to accommodate the needs mentioned above. In this study about the design of the e-journal Meteor STIP Marunda using Open Journal Systems (OJS). The purpose of this study is the implementation of the Marunda STIP Meteor e-Journal using Open Journal Systems (OJS). The stages in this study refer to web development methods which include: (1) Analysis, (2) Design, (3) Generation, (4) Implementation. From the research results obtained management of Marunda STIP Meteor e-Journal by using the Open Journal System can serve every business process in publishing a journal starting from receipt of manuscripts from authors, manuscript distribution, manuscript editing, manuscript editing to journal publishing.

Organizations and societies of this century encounter with significant level of increasing threats due to the complexities resulting from integration of industries and cultures and momentary changes. Wherever that there is a name of threat, the defense category, whether it is a kind of operating defense or a kind of passive one, is given to the human mind. Defense in its own form is effective in preventing the actualization of threats in the first place, and then is effective in reducing the level of disasters (crisis management) after actualization. Therefore, passive defense and crisis management are two related issues that must necessarily be considered in the form of a new model and pattern in strategic planning of organizations. In this research, a hybrid model has been designed and presented for this purpose that it has described the integration of these two issues with consideration of the issue of change management with an analytical-descriptive method. The presented model has been developed in 8 levels (District) consists of 4 main District and 4 sub-District, 4 dimensions and 1 direction. Each District has its own unique qualitative and strategic features and requires management methods and organizational and cultural measures related to the specific circumstances placed in it. It is identified by examining all Districts that District 3 has an acceptable level of infrastructure reliability due to the intrinsic coherence and coordination with the constant changes in the perimeter and interior environment and keeping preparedness against existing threats and the likelihood of crisis growth has been reduced in it.

Objective This study was carried out to determine the prevalence of P. aeruginosa as well as to assess their antibiotic susceptibility pattern in a tertiary hospital.

Material and Methods P. aeruginosa isolated from various clinical samples were tested for antibiotic susceptibitlity with Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) by E-test strips. Imipenem resistant isolates were tested for production of metallo-β-lactamase by imipenem-EDTA disk method.

Results Eleven imipenem-resistant isolates were positive for MBL production by imipenem EDTA disk diffusion test. Compared with non-MBL-producing imipenem-resistant P. aeruginosa, MBL-producing isolates were more likely to be resistant to other antibiotics. Conclusion There exists high percentage of MBL producers among imipenem resistant isolates. The necessity of screening all imipenem-resistant isolates for MBL production and implementation of infection control programs to prevent spread of such organisms.

Effect of chemical reaction on MHD free convection flow past an exponentially accelerate porous plate in the slip flow regime with porous medium has been studied. The dimensionless governing equations are solved using Series solution technique .The velocity near the plate with slip flow regime is assumed to vary with respect to time. The influences of the various parameters on the flow field, skin friction, rate of heat transfer, rate of mass transfer and Temperature field are extensively discussed from graphs.

Introduction: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic condition characterized by high blood glucose concentration resulting from insufficient insulin production and/ or ineffective insulin action. Proinsulin was synthesized and secreted as a insulin precursor and marker predictor of type 2 DM. Adiponectin has a contributory role in insulin sensitivity through decrease of hepatic gluconeogenesis and increased glucose transport in muscles.

 Method: An experimental study, conducted from April to August 2018 at unit of research laboratory of Faculty of medicine in Padjadjaran University, Bandung. The samples were Rat Wistar Strain of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) model was divided into

Result: This study did for 48 Rat Wistar Strain of T2DM model divided into2 groups: control group and experimental group. Experimental group was given Puguntano extract. Correlation between proinsulin/ insulin ratio and adiponectin receptor after giving Puguntano leaf extract was analysed with using Spearman correlation. Changes that occurred were assessed with p value of 0,05). 

Conclusion: There is no significant correlation between proinsulin/ insulin ratio and adiponectin receptor after giving the Puguntano leaf extract (Curanga fel-terrae Merr.) in type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Wistar rat.

With selective and volumetric heating, microwave (MW) heating and dewatering can improve efficiency and considerably reduce the time needed to complete the dewatering process and thereby save energy. On this basis, MW heating has great potential in terms of the accelerated-curing of cement-based materials. In this paper, the investigation focuses on the use of MW-accelerated heating and dewatering for the early-age compressive strength development of Type-I cement paste (CP) under the low-pressure conditions of 30 kPa (29.6% of ambient atmospheric pressure (101.325 kPa)). CP specimens prepared at water–cement (w/c) ratios of 0.25, 0.35, and 0.45 associated with compensating for water in the admixture used are considered. The investigation focuses on the temperature increase and moisture content of CP specimens in relation to compressive strength development during MW heating and dewatering. For this purpose, a prototype is used: specifically, a combined unsymmetrical 2-magnetron-double-fed MW and a vacuum system that constantly generates 780 ± 10 W with one magnetron installed symmetrically perpendicular to the horizontal position of the specimens (magnetron 1) and the other asymmetrically perpendicular to the horizontal position of the specimens (magnetron 2). The results show that at an early stage of MW heating and dewatering, the temperature increases continuously at a high rate. The results also show that after this early stage, strength development continues but at a slightly lower rate consistent with a change in the moisture content of the CP. Further, this change in moisture content results in the temperature of the CP increases continuously at a high rate while simultaneously causing a slight decrease in the moisture content of the CP. The results show that greater strength development accrues when CP specimens are cured in quantities of 12 per batch in the cavity (3.95% of the volume of the MW cavity) than when CP specimens are cured in quantities of 24 per batch (7.90% of the volume of MW cavity). When both magnetron 1 and magnetron 2 are used, MW heating is less efficient than when only magnetron 2 is used (780 ± 10 W). Moreover at 28 days, compared with the conventional water-cured CP (i.e., with lime saturated water)), the MW-cured CP develops more compressive strength throughout the first Volume 29, No: 3, 2024 41 https://kaupia.boston/.
