Tens of thousands of Sāncipāt manuscripts still exist in the state, some of them centuries old, without fading ink and min-iature painting despite its harsh hot and humid climate. Traditionally, Sāncipāt was made from the bark of the Sānci tree using an arduous procedure. In this study, we analysed the physico-chemical proper ties of the traditionally prepared model and old Sāncipāt folios at different stages of preparation using FT-IR, XRD and SEM-EDX spectra, weight loss during degumming, tensile strength, gloss index and antifungal properties. A comparison of data with freshly prepared Sāncipāt folios showed intact internal structure and str ength in the old ones. The antifungal property obser ved in Sāncipāt is attributed to Tutia used during degumming of the bark, and two pigments, viz., Hengul and Hāitāl applied as thin coating and border respectively. Partial degumming, coating with fatty pulse, application of Hāitāl and Hengul, and repeated pressing, smoothening and drying together impart strength and glossiness to Sāncipāt manuscripts.","PeriodicalId":11194,"journal":{"name":"Current Science","volume":"201 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84308661","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The location of this site in a desolate corner of Khadir Island in Kachchh, Gujarat, India, speaks well of the planning and ingenuity showed by the Harappans for making it an urban and adminis-trative centre. Excavations at this site between 1989 and 2005 brought to light a long and continuous occupation of nearly 1500 years ( c . 3000–1500 BCE ), which records the rise, culmination and fall of the Harappan Civilization. Evidences for various craft activities are found from the earliest levels onwards and the Harappans exploited various lithic raw materials for both utilitarian purposes and making ornaments. Kachhch and the Gujarat mainland are rich in raw material resources in general and agate–carnelian, limestone, various types of clay, copper–lead–silver and steatite, in particular. Dholavira contains both raw materials and finished artefacts, thus presents an ideal scenario to study. In the present study, we interpret the mineralogical characterization and probable provenance of the raw materials from different spatio-temporal contexts at the Dholavira site using techniques like XRD and SEM-EDS analysis. Samples of clay, stone raw materials and a few artefacts were selected from among the innumerable resources available at the site.","PeriodicalId":11194,"journal":{"name":"Current Science","volume":"57 8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77568744","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Limb regeneration has an impact on different life traits of organisms. In the present study, we found that limb regeneration of two ladybird species of different body size affected their life attributes. The fourth instar of Propylea dissecta and ladybird Coccinella septempunctata were taken from laboratory stock and ablated. Larvae were observed until adult emergence. Emerged adults were kept in different mating treatments. Unregenerated adults of ladybirds took more time to commence mating with shorter copulation and reduced fecundity and per cent viability. Thus, it can be concluded that regeneration ability modulates life attributes of ladybirds, irrespective of body size.","PeriodicalId":11194,"journal":{"name":"Current Science","volume":"6 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83043272","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Studies have reported several ill effects of crop-residue burning on soil organic carbon and fertility, including reduction in productivity in the long term, environmental pollution and human health. It also produces greenhouse gases causing global warming. Rice and wheat produce large amounts of residue in India. Non-availability of labour, the high cost of residue removal from the field and the increasing use of combines in harvesting the crops are the main reasons for burning crop residues in the fields. Rice straw is unsuitable animal feed due to its high silica content and wheat straw for due to its hard stem and diffi-culty chewing in unchopped form. Using supplements like urea and is feeding straw sprayed with urea improves its nutritive value and intake. We have developed a mechanized baler equipped with a urea spraying system for spraying urea during baling operations on crop residues (paddy or wheat straw) to enhance their nutritional value. The developed system was evaluated in combine a harvested wheat residue field and nutritional analysis was performed. The crude protein in untreated wheat straw increased from 3.68% to 10.10% after urea treatment. The metabolizable energy was also found to improve by 3% compared to untreated straw. Thus, urea-treated bales have potential use in dairy farming.","PeriodicalId":11194,"journal":{"name":"Current Science","volume":"21 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74115510","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
