The present study is intended to assess gymnosperms pollen flora of Pakistan using Light Microscope (LM) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) for its taxonomic significance in identification of gymnosperms. Pollens of 35 gymnosperm species (12 genera and five families) were collected from its various distributional sites of gymnosperms in Pakistan. LM and SEM were used to investigate different palyno‐morphological characteristics. Five pollen types (i.e., Inaperturate, Monolete, Monoporate, Vesiculate‐bisaccate and Polyplicate) were observed. Six In equatorial view seven types of pollens were observed, in which ten species were sub‐angular, nine species were Traingular, six species were Perprolate, three species were Rhomboidal, three species were semi‐angular, two species were rectangular and two species were prolate. While five types of pollen were observed in polar view, in which ten species were Spheroidal, nine species were Angular, eight were Interlobate, six species were Circular, two species were Elliptic. Eighteen species has rugulate and 17 species has faveolate ornamentation. Eighteen species has verrucate and 17 have gemmate type sculpturing. The data was analysed through cluster analysis. The study showed that these palyno‐morphological features have significance value in classification and identification of gymnosperms. Based on these different palyno‐morphological features, a taxonomic key was proposed for the accurate and fast identifications of gymnosperms from Pakistan. 相似文献

Porous γ-alumina with well arranged secondary mesopores has been contrived using nanosized templating units. The pore size
of templated mesopores is precisely controlled as the pore shrinkage is insignificant. The primary pore diameter is ca. 4 nm
and the secondary pore diameter is ca. 50 nm. The porous material was characterized using N2 adsorption/desorption, TEM, XRD and FT-IR. γ-alumina with bimodal pore size distribution shows improved intra-particle diffusion
compared to γ-alumina with unimodal pore size distribution in a simple dye adsorption test. γ-alumina with different porous
structures were then impregnated with vanadium oxide for catalytic effect comparison. It was perceived that secondary pores
improve the styrene oxidation rate after the conversion of styrene reaches 30%. 相似文献

In order to produce sufficient food supply for the ever-increasing human population, pesticides usage is indispensable in the agriculture sector to control crop losses. However, the effect of pesticides on the environment is very complex as undesirable transfers occur continually among different environmental sections. This eventually leads to contamination of drinking water source especially for rivers located near active agriculture practices. This paper studied the application of nanofiltration membrane in the removal of dimethoate and atrazine in aqueous solution. Dimethoate was selected as the subject of study since it is being listed as one of the pesticides in guidelines for drinking water by World Health Organization. Nevertheless, data on effectiveness of dimethoate rejection using membranes has not been found so far. Meanwhile, atrazine is classified as one of the most commonly used pesticides in Malaysia. Separation was done using a small batch-type membrane separation cell with integrated magnetic stirrer while concentration of dimethoate and atrazine in aqueous solution was analyzed using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Four nanofiltration membranes NF90, NF200, NF270 and DK were tested for their respective performance to separate dimethoate and atrazine. Of all four membranes, NF90 showed the best performance in retention of dimethoate and atrazine in water. 相似文献

Traditionally, design and manufacturing activities have taken place sequentially rather than simultaneously leading to inefficient and time consuming iterations between design and manufacturing stages. In order to expedite these iterations, manufacturability analysis systems (MASs) have been developed to allow the evaluation of various manufacturability aspects during the design stage and consequently to reduce the costs and time to market of the designed products. The definition, concepts, advantages of the MAS and its current state of development and applicability in the industrial environment are discussed in the introduction of the paper. Then, key issues and technologies related to the construction of a MAS such as methodologies applied in data input mechanisms, techniques for manufacturability reasoning and formats of the outputs generated by MASs are analysed. Furthermore, applicability of a MAS to various manufacturing processes and aspects such as manufacturability and fixturability indices that can be analysed and produced through a MAS are also commented. Disadvantages and limitations emerged from utilisation of MASs are critically analysed and presented. Finally, the paper concludes with discussion and suggestions for some prospective research trends and challenges in building and exploiting MASs. Particular attention is paid to the application of a MAS to micro-manufacturing processes on which, nowadays, both academics and industry are focusing their attentions for identifying future research and technological challenges and opportunities. 相似文献

Xanthine oxidase (XO) plays an important role in the regulation of uric acid and prevents it from being overproduced as in hyperuricemia disease. The combined effects of antioxidant and xanthine oxidase inhibitor would become a promising approach for hyperuricemia treatment. In this research, the antioxidant and xanthine oxidase inhibitory activities of Pandanus amaryllifolius leaf were evaluated. The leaf water extract (PA‐W) showed highest total phenols, and petroleum ether extract (PA‐PE) showed highest total flavonoids contents. The antioxidant activity of DPPH, metal chelating and hydrogen peroxide was highest in PA‐W extract. The treatment of PA‐W extract at 1000 mg kg?1 body weight in potassium oxonate‐induced hyperuricemic rats showed significant (P < 0.001) decrease in serum uric acid level by 85% and XO activity by 64%, respectively, as compared to the hyperuricemic rats. In conclusion, the P. amaryllifolius possess the dual effect of antioxidant and XO inhibition as potential therapeutic agents in the hyperuricemia treatment. 相似文献

Water pipes are considered to be one of responsible sources for the water pollution. Among these sources of water supply, the water pipes are the only source of carrying out fresh or processed water into lakes, ponds and streams etc. In Pakistan, knowledge on the condition of water pipes is scarce as deterioration of water pipes are hardly inspected due to high cost. The aim of the current research was to examine the quality of water pipelines of eight districts of South-Punjab, namely, Mianwali, Khushab, Layyah, Bhakkar, Dera Ghazi Khan, Muzaffargarh, Rajanpur and Rahim Yar Khan. Selected sampling stations were analyzed for physio-chemical parameters such as pH, Total Dissolve Solids (TDS), Sulfate (SO4), Chlorine (Cl), Calcium (Ca), Magnesium (Mg), Hardness, Nitrate (NO3), Fluoride (F) and Iron (Fe). The data pertaining water monitoring contain different parameters and seem difficult work for the interpretation of water quality by managing different parameters separately. For this purpose, National Sanitation Foundation Water Quality Index (NSF-WQI) was determined to communicate the quality of water in a simple form. Besides this, groups comprising of similar sampling sites based on water quality characteristics were identified using unsupervised technique. Factor Analysis (FA) has been performed for extracting the latent pollution sources that may cause the more variance in large and complex data. The calculated values of WQI from 1600 sampling stations ranging from 20.73 to 223.74 are divided into five groups; Excellent to Unsuitable class of waters with the average value 62.09 described as good limit for drinking water. Further sampling stations are divided into five optimal clusters selected with suitable k value obtained from Silhouette coefficient. Results of k-means clustering are also verified with natural groups made by WQI. Analysis of multivariate techniques showed several factors to be responsible for the water quality deterioration. It is found out from the FA that three latent factors such as organic pollution, agriculture run-off and urban land use caused 83.30 % of the total variation. Hence, water quality management and control of these latent factors are strongly recommended. 相似文献

Clustering has been used as one of energy-efficient mechanisms for data routing in wireless sensor networks. In hierarchical routing approaches, cluster heads are responsible for management (e.g. data aggregation, queries dispatch) and transmission of the collected data in the region controlled by them. For efficient data delivery, several researches have proposed various mechanisms for cluster organization and cluster head selection. However, less focus is given in the area of data transmission associated with Base Station (BS). In such a situation, any failure or packet loss may lead to considerable packet loss. For solving this problem, we propose an efficient data routing scheme for controlling data delivery from nodes to BS. In our proposed approach every node is aware about the link quality of all nodes and is able to deliver data to the BS through the most reliable and energy-efficient route. 相似文献
