Acquired Bartter syndrome following gentamicin therapy
(Medknow Publications, 2016) J. Singh; M.L. Patel; K.K. Gupta; S.A. Pandey; A. Dinkar
Aminoglycoside nephrotoxicity may manifest as nonoliguric renal failure or tubular dysfunction, such as Fanconi-like syndrome, Bartter-like syndrome (BS), or distal renal tubular acidosis. We report a case who developed severe renal tubular dysfunction on the the 7 th day of gentamicin therapy, resulting in metabolic alkalosis, refractory hypokalemia, hypocalcemia, hypomagnesemia, and polyuria. The patient was diagnosed as a case of transient BS associated with gentamicin exposure. The patient recovered with conservative management. © 2016 Indian Journal of Nephrology | Published by Wolters Kluwer - Medknow.
Acute myocardial infarction associated with severe Plasmodium vivax malaria
(Wolters Kluwer Medknow Publications, 2020) A. Dinkar; J. Singh; S. Singh
Malaria is still a major public health problem, even after many preventive strategies. Plasmodium vivax is also a major health concern now due to the addition of new unusual manifestations day by day in its clinical profile. Herewith, we report a case of a 15-yr-old male of severe P. vivax malaria (complicated with thrombocytopenia, hepatitis, acute lung injury, and shock), who developed chest pain. Later, he was confirmed to have acute myocardial infarction based on electrocardiography, cardiac enzymes, and echocardiography. PubMed and Google-based literature search found that it was the first confirmed case of this type. Fortunately, timely diagnosis and appropriate management saved his life. © 2020 Wolters Kluwer Medknow Publications. All rights reserved.
Biology and chemical control of carmine spider mite, Tetranychus cinnabarinus (Boisd.) (acarina: tetranychidae) on Ashwagandha, Withania somnifera
(1996) S.N. Rai; J. Singh
The biology and chemical control of carmine spider mite, Tetranychus cinnabarinus were studied on a medicinal plant, Withania somnifera in the autumn season (September-October) of 1992. The life cycle of female comprised eight developmental stages, while male had six stages in their life span. Female survived for a longer period due to two extra stages (deutonymph and teliocrysalis) as compared to male. The sex ratio was 4 : 1 in laboratory culture. Further, some morphometric parameters were recorded and the female was found to be longer in size than the male. Field experiments were also conducted to study the efficacy of some insecticides/acaricides against the infestation of carmine spider mite on Ashwagandha. Triazophos (0.05%) was least effective and dicofol (0.03%) was found to be the best among all the tested chemicals.
Biomonitoring of air pollution around urban and industrial sites
(Triveni Enterprises, 1991) M. Argrawal; S.K. Singh; J. Singh; D.N. Rao
Plants act as a sink for air pollutants and can be used as a bioindicator for monitoring pollution load in different areas. In the present study air pollution tolerance index (APTI) of plant species growing in the field conditions were determined by using levels of total chlorophyll, ascorbic acid, leaf extract, pH and relative water content. To identify plant parameters and plant species suitable for bioindication purpose, selected plants were exposed to 0,15 ppm SO2 in dynamic exposure chambers for 2h daily for 30 days. Different physiological, biochemical and growth parameters were measured in plants for their biomonitoring potential. It is found that M. Sativa, V. faba, V. seneusis, M. indica and E. hybrid plants can be used as indicator species in SO2 polluted area and P. guajava and C. arietinum may be used as bioaccumulator of gaseous SO2 in the environment. Further the field studies conducted around Shaktinagar thermal power plant showed that E. hybrid may be a reliable bioaccumulator of S and M. indica may be conveniently used for bioindication and also it is a good bioaccumulator. Lastly, the usefullness of the floristic composition as an indicator to the level of air pollution was suggested.
Chemical effects of56Mn-recoils in mixed crystals of potassium permanganate with perchlorates
(Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1986) S.P. Mishra; J. Singh
The chemical effects of56Mn-recoils following neutron capture produced in mixed crystals /KMnO4-LiClO4, KMnO4-NaClO4 and KMnO4-KClO4/ have been investigated. A linear increase of initial retention with the mol fraction of perchlorate was observed which is tentatively ascribed to the tendency to form species having structures similar to that of the host matrix. The ultimate chemical fate of the manganese atom also depends on the conditions of the immediate chemical environment of the atoms /e.g. Li, Na, K/ at rest in the crystal. The results are discussed in terms of retention and non-retention reactions invoking a mechanistic model involving metal and ligand-vacancy exchange, substitution and transfer reactions. © 1986 Akadémiai Kiadó.
Chilling stress during postharvest storage of fruits and vegetables
(Springer Singapore, 2020) Swati Sharma; Kalyan Barman; R.N. Prasad; J. Singh
The commercial practice to extend postharvest life of freshly harvested horticultural commodities is storing them at low temperature. However, tropical and subtropical origin fruits and vegetables develop injury when stored at a very low temperature. The chilling stress causes damage to the susceptible fruits and vegetables during postharvest supply chain and is a major limitation for harnessing the beneficial effects of cold storage for extending their marketability. Different physiological and biochemical alterations cause cellular dysfunctions leading to the development of various symptoms in the produce affected by chilling stress. Several postharvest management strategies can be adopted to alleviate the harmful effects of chilling stress like modulating temperature and storage conditions, pre-storage physical or chemical treatments, etc. In this chapter, the response of commodities to chilling stress, its symptoms, alleviation strategies, and their mechanism have been discussed. © Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2020.

Comparative evaluation of different methods for determing nutrient digestibility in buffaloes
(2008) Om Prakash; J. Singh
Ten digestion experiments were conducted in two phases using 6 adult buffaloes (3 fistulated male and 3 female) in each method. In each phase, five methods viz., conventional (a), lignin (b), chromic oxide (Cr2O3) (c), nylon bag (d) and in-vitro (e) were used for the determination of feed digestibility. In phase - I, the animals were fed concentrate mixture alongwith ad libitum feeding of wheat bhusa and in phase - II, concentrate mixture and Lucerne green (Medicago sativa L.) were fed alongwith ad libitum feeding of wheat bhusa. The overall digestibilities of all the feed constituents were slightly higher by conventional method than lignin. In both the methods, the digestibility of dry matter, crude protein, ether extract, crude fibre and neutral detergent fibre were significantly (P<0.01) lower than Cr2O3 method. Nitrogen-free extract and total carbohydrate digestibility were apparently higher in Cr2O3 than other methods. The average digestibility of all the constituents were at per in methods d and e, but were significantly lower (P<0.01) than the values found in rest of the groups.

Results are reported from an improved measurement of νμ→νe transitions by the NOvA experiment. Using an exposure equivalent to 6.05×1020 protons on target, 33 νe candidates are observed with a background of 8.2±0.8 (syst.). Combined with the latest NOvA νμ disappearance data and external constraints from reactor experiments on sin22θ13, the hypothesis of inverted mass hierarchy with θ23 in the lower octant is disfavored at greater than 93% C.L. for all values of δCP. © 2017 American Physical Society.
Continental collision tectonics: Evidence from the Himalaya and the neighbouring regions
(1982) Harsh K. Gupta; V.Divakar Rao; J. Singh
The evolution of the Himalaya and the tectonics of neighbouring regions are generally believed to be due to continent-to-continent collision of the Eurasian and the Indian plates. During the last decade, many new data have been obtained and examined and a suite of models has been developed to explain the evolution of the Himalaya and the neighbouring regions. These models could broadly be classified into three categories. The subdivision of the Himalaya into five main structural units is now well accepted. A tectogenetic diagram of the Himalaya is briefly discussed. Ophiolites are reported to occur all along the Indus-Tsangpo Suture zone. Results of geochemical analysis of an ophiolite sequence from Dras in Kashmir Himalaya are presented. Surface wave dispersion and attenuation investigations have revealed the crustal and upper mantle structure below the Himalaya and Tibet plateau. The finding of low-velocity layers is consistent with the concept that horizontal compression has been responsible for creating these weak zones and the inferred elevated temperatures in the vicinity of the Moho discontinuity below Tibet. Earthquake focal-mechanism solutions and interpretation of Landsat imagery indicate that convergence of the Indian plate with Eurasia continues and is accommodated partly by crustal shortening and partly by lateral mass movement at the northwest and the northeast margins of the Indian plate. Palaeomagnetic data from the Himalaya belt and central Asia can be interpreted in support of Molnar and Tapponnier's model of continental collision. © 1982.

The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is an international, world-class experiment aimed at exploring fundamental questions about the universe that are at the forefront of astrophysics and particle physics research. DUNE will study questions pertaining to the preponderance of matter over antimatter in the early universe, the dynamics of supernovae, the subtleties of neutrino interaction physics, and a number of beyond the Standard Model topics accessible in a powerful neutrino beam. A critical component of the DUNE physics program involves the study of changes in a powerful beam of neutrinos, i.e., neutrino oscillations, as the neutrinos propagate a long distance. The experiment consists of a near detector, sited close to the source of the beam, and a far detector, sited along the beam at a large distance. This document, the DUNE Near Detector Conceptual Design Report (CDR), describes the design of the DUNE near detector and the science program that drives the design and technology choices. The goals and requirements underlying the design, along with projected performance are given. It serves as a starting point for a more detailed design that will be described in future documents. © 2021 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.

The ProtoDUNE-SP detector is a single-phase liquid argon time projection chamber (LArTPC) that was constructed and operated in the CERN North Area at the end of the H4 beamline. This detector is a prototype for the first far detector module of the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE), which will be constructed at the Sandford Underground Research Facility (SURF) in Lead, South Dakota, U.S.A. The ProtoDUNE-SP detector incorporates full-size components as designed for DUNE and has an active volume of 7 × 6 × 7.2 m3. The H4 beam delivers incident particles with well-measured momenta and high-purity particle identification.

Dissociation Energies of S2, SO, Te2, SeO and P2 Molecules
(1971) B. Rai; J. Singh; D.K. Rai
The ground state dissociation energies of S2, SO, Te2, SeO and P2 molecules have been estimated by fitting the Szöke and Baitz electronegativity potential energy curves to the experimental RKRV curves. The estimates of dissociation energies obtained have been compared with earlier calculations. Copyright © 1971 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim
Divergent gene pools in rice improvement
(Springer-Verlag, 1983) K.S. Kanwal; R.M. Singh; J. Singh
The objective of the present study was to investigate the genetic architecture of yield in diverse populations of rice. Multivariate analysis by Mahalanobis's D2 statistic and canonical (vector) analysis revealed that panicle weight, days to maturity, plant height and seed size were the important forces contributing towards divergence. One hundred rice strains were grouped into nine clusters with the help of D2 and canonical analysis. The grouping pattern of the varieties were quite at random indicating that the geographical and genetic diversity were not related. © 1983 Springer-Verlag.
Effect of blending soymilk with buffalo milk on the quality of Paneer
(2010) J. Singh; Tanveer Alam; P. Srivastava; R.K. Yadav
Research experiments were carried out for the production of Paneer (Indian Cheese) by utilizing soymilk admixed with buffalo milk to evaluate its quality. Four different combinations of soymilk (0%:T0, 15%:T1 25%:T2 and 35 %:T3) in buffalo milk were taken to prepare soy-Paneer during experimentation. Three coagulation temperatures of 70, 80 and 90 °C were studied using citric and lactic acids as coagulants. The yield of soy-Paneer and their yield, fat and protein contents were increased (P< 0.05) in citric acid groups at 90°C than the Paneer prepare from lactic acid at 70 and 80°C. The yield of Paneer and their fat content decreased (P<0.05) as soymilk increased in the mixture.
Effect of insecticides on germination, early growth and cytogenetic behavior of barley (Hordeum vulgare)
(1979) B.D. Singh; R.B. Singh; R.M. Singh; Y. Singh; J. Singh
Seeds of barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv. "Ratna") were treated for 3 hr with 0.1% solutions of the active ingredients of commercial formulas of six systemic (Dimecron, Citrolane, Thimet, Counter, Furadon and Disyston) and three nonsystemic (Endrin, Cythion and Ambithion) insecticides, and ethylmethane sulphonate (EMS). In general, insecticide treatments did not reduce germination (except for Ambithion), but did reduce seedling height, pollen fertility and chiasma frequency. Different cytological aberrations, viz., chromosome fragments at mitotic metaphase; chromatin bridges, fragments, laggards, bridges with fragments and/or laggards at mitotic anaphase; univalents, precocious separation and nonorientation of bivalents at meiotic metaphase I; and laggards, bridges, bridges with laggards, tripolar divisions and unequal separation of chromosomes at anaphase I, were observed in the treated populations in frequencies significantly higher than those in the control. Some insecticides induced significantly greater cytological aberrations and other detrimental effects, such as reduction in germination, seedling height and pollen fertility, than EMS. © 1979.
Estimation of Variance of a Normal Population
(1981) M. Pandey; J. Singh
In this paper we have suggested two estimators of variance of a normal population developed from the estimators of μ2suggested by Govindarajulu and Sahai (1972) and Das (1975). These 2 have been shown to be more efficient than the usual estimator s2. © 1981 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC. All rights reserved.
Evaluation of cotyledonary node of Clitoria ternatea L. for high frequency in vitro axillary shoot proliferation
(Asian Network for Scientific Information, 2010) J. Singh; K.N. Tiwari
The objective of this study was to establish mass multiplication protocol for Clitoria ternatea. An efficient protocol for in vitro propagation of the valuable medicinal and forage plant aparajita (Clitoria ternatea L.) was developed through axillary shoot proliferation. Cotyledonary node having cotyledons or devoid of cotyledons were evaluated for axillary shoot development. The effect of cytokinins, sucrose concentrations and light-dark condition on axillary shoot regeneration was investigated. Cotyledonary node with cotyledons cultured on MS medium supplemented with 1.5 mg L-1 BAP yielded the maximum number (10.8) of shoots per explant. All media supplemented with 3% sucrose and incubated under 16 h light condition found most suitable for high frequency axillary shoot proliferation. Elongated shoots produced profuse rooting after transfer to half-strength MS medium supplemented with 0.2 mg L-1 IBA. The rooted plantlets were successfully acclimatized and exhibited 95% survival after transfer into the field. This protocol is suitable for large scale production of plantlets of C. ternatea. © 2010 Asian Network for Scientific Information.
Fine structure in the B-X system of SiCl
(1974) S.B. Rai; J. Singh; K.N. Upadhya; D.K. Rai
Rotational structure in five bands, viz (0,0)1/2, (0,1) 1/2, (0,1)3/2, (1,0)3/2 and (0,2)3/2 of the B-X system of the silicon monochloride molecule has been analysed by photographing the spectra in the third order of a 10.6 m concave grating spectrograph (dispersion 0.22 A/mm). The rotational constants of the states participating in the transition are obtained as follows: Be'=0. 2791+or-0.0003 cm-1; De'=1.8*10-7 cm -1; alpha e'=0.0020 cm-1; Be"= 0.2561+or-0.0001 cm-1; De"=2.30*10-7 cm-1; alpha e"=0.0015 cm-1; lambda -type doubling in the 2 Pi 1/2 component=0.006 cm-1. The spin splitting in the excited state is found to be of negligible magnitude. The weak isotopic lines due to 37Cl have also been detected.

We report results from the first search for νμ→νe transitions by the NOvA experiment. In an exposure equivalent to 2.74×1020 protons on target in the upgraded NuMI beam at Fermilab, we observe 6 events in the Far Detector, compared to a background expectation of 0.99±0.11(syst) events based on the Near Detector measurement. A secondary analysis observes 11 events with a background of 1.07±0.14(syst). The 3.3σ excess of events observed in the primary analysis disfavors 0.1π<δCP<0.5π in the inverted mass hierarchy at the 90% C.L. © 2016 American Physical Society.

This paper reports the first measurement using the NOvA detectors of νμ disappearance in a νμ beam. The analysis uses a 14 kton-equivalent exposure of 2.74×1020 protons-on-target from the Fermilab NuMI beam. Assuming the normal neutrino mass hierarchy, we measure Δm322=(2.52-0.18+0.20)×10-3 eV2 and sin2θ23 in the range 0.38-0.65, both at the 68% confidence level, with two statistically degenerate best-fit points at sin2θ23=0.43 and 0.60. Results for the inverted mass hierarchy are also presented. © 2016 American Physical Society.
