Paddysamples (~10 kg each) were cleaned, sun-dried to bring the moisture content to about 13-14%, shelled and then milled to obtain brown (unpolished) rice and milled (white/polished) rice, respectively. Milling-, physical-, cooking-, eating-, and nutritional properties of the rices were studied. The data generated were statistically analyzed using Genstat®version 12.1 for two-way ANOVA, and MS-Excel version 2019 for the Jarque-Bera test of homogeneity, correlation, and to generate graphical presentations. Bhotangehad better brown rice recovery (BRR=76.70%) and milled rice recovery (MRR=58.91%). Anadiand KaloNuniyahad poorer BRR (71.11%) and MRR (49.97%), respectively. Classifying rice samples based on the ‘grain type’, Anadi-, Bhotange-, and KaloNuniya-white were found to be of Medium-, Long-and Medium-'grain type'. Similarly, Anadi-, Bhotange-,and KaloNuniya-brown were found to be of Medium-, Medium-and Small-'grain type', respectively. In terms of size (1000-kernel weight, TKW), Anadi, Bhotangeand KaloNuniya(all white/polished) were found to be 'Small', 'Small' and 'Tiny'. Equilibrium moisture content during soaking (EMC-S) negatively (moderate degree) correlated with apparent amylose content (AAC) for both milled-(R2=0.73) and brown rices (R2=0.70). In white-rices, apparent water uptake ratio (AWUR) showed moderate degree of positive correlation (R2=0.367) with length/breadth (l/b) ratio. But for brown rices, AWUR showed high degree of positive correlation (R2=0.793) with l/b ratio. Volume expansion ratio (VER) positively (moderate degree) correlated (R2=0.63) with AAC for milled rices. This simple correlation established between 2 parameters (assuming other factors to be the same) with few data points cannot be generalized and further investigations are needed to establish solid correlations. Both Bhotangewhite and Bhotangebrown, respectively, had better cooking properties with lower solid loss (both 1.36 ± 0.11%), cooking times (17.67±1.52 and 25.33±2.51 min), higher VER (2.78±0.03 and 2.70±0.04), and l/b ratios after cooking (3.03±0.03 and 2.59±0.03). Anadiwhite had a sticky texture shown by the least VER (2.63 ± 0.13) and the lowest AAC (15.70±1.03%). Classifying rice samples based on the ‘AAC’, Anadi-, Bhotange-,and KaloNuniya-white had Low-, Low-, and Intermediate AAC. Anadi-, Bhotange-, and KaloNuniya-brown had very Low-, Low-, and Low AAC, respectively. Classifying rice samples based on the GT, Anadi-, Bhotange-, and KaloNuniya-white had Low-, Low-, and Intermediate GT.

A cross-sectional quantitative study was performed on 202 females of reproductive age (15–49 years) with a structured questionnaire. Measurements like weight, height, and waist and hip circumference were used to determine indicators of overweight and obesity. General obesity was analyzed using the WHO BMI classification, while Waist Circumference (WC) and Waist to Hip Ratio (WHR) analyzed abdominal obesity based on International Diabetes Federation – IDF, and WHO criteria, respectively. Microsoft Office 16 and SPSS Statistics version 20 were used to analyze data. The Chi-square test was used to establish an association between the variables under study. The study revealed that 31.7% of respondents were overweight, 8.4% were obese, 63.4% were abdominally obese by WC, and 71.8% by WHR. Here, the mean BMI was 25.36±4.56 kg/m2, and the mean WC was 89.69±12.47 cm, with a mean WHR of 0.91±0.09. Age, marital status, family size, parity, sleeping hours, eating pattern, protein intake, and consumption of dairy, eggs, and whole cereals were significantly associated (p<0.05) with overweight and obesity; while age, marital status, education, occupation, family size, parity, and contraceptive use were common factors associated with abdominal obesity (WC and WHR). However, family history, protein intake, and consumption of wheat and eggs were associated (p<0.05) only with WC. The study showed a high prevalence of increased weight among reproductive-aged females in Damak. Thus, being overweight or obese should be viewed as a critical issue. The population should be made aware of the risk factors of obesity.","PeriodicalId":12935,"journal":{"name":"Himalayan Journal of Science and Technology","volume":"120 22","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139133158","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}

Generalized Gradient Approximation (GGA) based exchange correlation functionals are used under software package Quantum ESPRESSO (QE), 6.5 versions. We have reconstructed the optimized unit cell of silicene, which has a face centered cubic (fcc) structure with two silicon atoms having lattice parameters a = b = 3.8 Å. The distance between two nearest silicene monolayers is found to be 20.5 Å which is large enough to neglect the interlayer interactions between 4×4 supercells of silicene monolayers. The atoms in the prepared supercell are fully relaxed under Bloyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno (BFGS) scheme prior to the self-consistent, band structure and density of state (DoS) calculations. The pristine silicene is semi-metallic in nature possessing a Dirac-cone as in graphene. The h-site adsorption is found to be the most stable adsorption site of nickel in silicene with the binding energy of 4.69 eV. The addition of nickel atom completely distorts the hexagonal structure of silicene destroying the Dirac cone and the system becomes slightly insulating from its semi-metallic nature. We then construct a 4×4 nickel dimer silicene which further destroys the hexagonal silicene structure with further opening of the band gap. The charge transfer analysis in the Ni decorated systems shows the charge transfers of 0.163e and 0.294e in Ni adatom silicene and Ni dimer silicene respectively showing that the nickel atoms are adsorbed by weak van der Waals forces in both of the systems. We then proceed to hydrogen molecule adsorption in these prepared 4×4 silicene systems: pristine, Ni adatom and Ni dimer silicene systems. The adsorption energy of hydrogen in the Ni adatom silicene is found to be the largest making it the most effective system for hydrogen storage.","PeriodicalId":12935,"journal":{"name":"Himalayan Journal of Science and Technology","volume":"111 44","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139135187","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}

Over the past 20 years, MRSA infections have become more prevalent worldwide. MRSA was initially only discovered in humans, but later it was discovered in animals as well. Objectives: The study aimed to determine the prevalence of LA-MRSA in domestic livestock of Dharan, Nepal. Methods: Overall, 320 skin swab samples of cattle (cows) were collected by swabbing the skin of cattle aseptically with a sterile cotton swab and the samples were transported to the laboratory in a cold chain. The samples were streaked in Mannitol salt agar(MSA) containing oxacillin concentration of 6mg/L and incubated at 37°C for 24 hours. Staphylococcus aureus colonies were identified based on cultural characteristics on MSA plates (golden yellow colonies), Gram’s reaction, and positive results for coagulase and catalase test. The purified isolates of MRSA were subjected to antibiotic susceptibility tests and Biofilm formation. Results: MRSA was found to be prevalent in 10% of cattle. Antibiotic-resistant tests reported that MRSA was found to be sensitive to chloramphenicol 12(37.5%) followed by ceftriaxone 12 (37.25%), gentamycin 9(28.12%), cefotaxime 4(12.5%), while 100% of MRSA were resistant to penicillin and vancomycin. The moderate biofilm-forming MRSA was 5(15.625%), followed by 3(9.375%) weak biofilm producers and 24(75%) were negative towards biofilm formation. Conclusion: The prevalence of MRSA (10%) and Vancomycin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (100% VRSA) in cattle shows the need for regular surveillance. Chloramphenicol can be a treatment of choice for MRSA infections. However, emerging VRSA is a serious epidemiological issue that needs to be addressed properly. Therefore, Healthcare organizations must adopt precise criteria to control and prevent MRSA infection..","PeriodicalId":12935,"journal":{"name":"Himalayan Journal of Science and Technology","volume":"34 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139131169","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}

The length-weight relationship is expressed by the equation W = aLb, where W represents the total weight of the fish and L denotes the standard length. The LWR equation was transformed into a linear form using logarithmic transformation: LogW = a + bLogL. The biometric data obtained from this study includes information on species, sample numbers (N), standard length range, total weight range, and the length-weight relationship constants (a and b) for each species. In this study, we estimated the length-weight relationship of 16 freshwater fish species from some rivers of Morang district, Eastern Nepal. A total of 1,600 fish specimens, representing 16 different species from 5 families were studied from September 2022 to February 2023. The fishes were captured from the river and preserved in 20% formalin for subsequent biometric measurements in the laboratory. Biometric measurements were taken as follows: for each fish, length measurements were listed as standard length or fork length (SL in cm) from mouth to where the caudal fin is lobate. Length measurements were taken with a regular ruler validated against a Vernier Calliper, with an accuracy of 0.1 cm. Weight measurements were obtained using an electronic digital balance with a precision of 0.01 g. While listing weight, a fish consistency was maintained concerning the degree of wetness of the body to ensure accuracy. Among the species listed in the Morang district, Puntius terio has the smallest range of standard length (2.7 cm - 7.4 cm) and total weight (1.07 g - 7.06 g) while Garra gotyla gotyla has the largest range of standard length (4.3 cm - 18.6 cm) and total weight (4.5 g - 15.6 g). These variations indicate the natural size differences among the species. The analysis of the length-weight relationships revealed that all the studied fish species exhibited a negative allometric growth pattern. This means that as the length of the fish increases, its weight increases at a slower rate. The findings of this study contribute to our understanding of the growth patterns of freshwater fish species in the study area.","PeriodicalId":12935,"journal":{"name":"Himalayan Journal of Science and Technology","volume":"99 25","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139131731","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}

No significant difference (p>0.05) was found in the calcium and protein content of both cheeses. The prepared cheese using ginger protease had significantly (p<0.05) higher spreadability, but lower aftertaste than the rennet cheese. However, non-significant difference (p>0.05) was observed in the flavor and overall acceptance between the two cheeses.
