This study involves a survey method. The sample size of the study was 200 high school students who were selected through random sampling technique. The main hypotheses of the study are the level of socio-economic status among high school students in relation to their academic achievement. There is no significant difference between the mean score on the level of socio-economic status in relation to their academic achievement among high school students with respect to their demographic variables such as gender, school location, family types and birth order. The statistical procedures used in this study were; Mean, standard deviation, t test and F-test to analyze the data. Major findings of the study: i). The level of socio-economic status and academic achievement among high school students is above average. ii). Male high school students are significantly higher than female students in terms of socio-economic status and academic achievement. iii). Rural and urban high school students were found to be similar in level of socio-economic status in relation to their academic achievement. iv). Individual families of high school students have significantly higher socio-economic status relative to their academic achievement than joint families. v).

Traditionally, individuals engaging in fund transfers are compelled to either visit a physical banking institution or seek out a computer with internet connectivity to avail themselves of the services proffered by online banking, ensuring a dependable monetary exchange. This system stands as a paragon of efficacy, offering a fortified layer of security to safeguard these financial transactions.\u0000The web portal, accessible to a broad spectrum of end users, allows registration by furnishing requisite contact particulars and account information. The preservation of such information is executed meticulously, with the entirety of data subjected to encryption through the application of the DES Algorithm, thus fortifying the impregnability of the stored details. In contrast to numerous insecure websites, where susceptibility to data breaches looms large, this platform assuages such concerns by encrypting all pertinent information prior to its storage in the database, employing a clandestine key and cryptographic algorithm.\u0000Facilitating a payment entails a visit to the Electronic Fund Transfer (EFT) center, utilizing a singular portable card. Subsequent to the cards scanning, the user is furnished with an OTP (One Time Password), a crucial requisite for advancing through subsequent stages. The introduction of this OTP, culled from a singular usage, serves as a pivotal augmentation of security, validating the users authorization. Post successful OTP verification, the user is mandated to input account particulars and execute the fund transfer, thereby fortifying the entire process and culminating in a secure electronic fund transfer predicated on the DES Algorithm.\u0000In contemporary times, individuals find themselves frequently necessitating the transfer of financial resources between accounts. In such instances, they are compelled to either traverse to a banking institution or seek out a computing apparatus tethered to the internet to avail themselves of the services proffered by online banking, thereby ensuring a reliable conduit for fund transfers. The efficacy of this system is manifestly advantageous, streamlining the user experience to the mere input of account details. The confluence of security measures, including the application of the AES algorithm, immediate verification protocols, and consistency checks, coalesce to fortify the framework of secure electronic fund transfers.\u0000To effectuate a secure transaction, an individual need only visit an Electronic Fund Transfer (EFT) center, employing a singular portable card to facilitate an instantaneous transfer. The utilization of the DES algorithm in this mechanism assures the user of a secure transaction, swiftly executed.

The understanding of the moisture sorption properties, nutrient composition and sensory properties of the oven dried and fried cheese can help quality, shelf-life prediction and overall acceptance. The experimental methodology for this study followed a standard procedure to determine the sorption isotherm of oven-dried and fried cheese samples. First, the raw milk samples were obtained from white Fulani cows at the Teaching and Research Farm, Ekiti State, University, Ado-Ekiti, Nigeria and processed into cheese. The cheese was divided into two portions: one group was oven-dried at 50 0C for 16 hours, while the other group was fried in pre-heated edible canola to internal temperature of 68oC. Sorption parameters, proximate and sensory characteristics were carried out according to standard methods. This study revealed that the monolayer moisture was higher in fried cheese than oven dried cheese. Oven-dried cheese had 0.299 water activity and 21.26 monolayer moisture while fried cheese had higher water activity of 0.32 and monolayer moisture of 29.67. Fitness of curve (R2) of 0.731 0.903 were computed for oven-dried and fried cheese. The results of proximate composition and sensory characteristics showed that processing methods influenced the sensorial properties and nutritional composition of oven-dried and fried cheese. In conclusion, oven-dried cheese can be predicted to be more stable than fried cheese.\u0000KEYWORDS: Adsorption, Equilibrium, GAB Equation, Monolayer, Salts.","PeriodicalId":114964,"journal":{"name":"EPRA International Journal of Research & Development (IJRD)","volume":"21 25","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140257794","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
