Bacterial resistance to
pharmaceutical drugs is on rise, which emphasizes the need for screening of new drugs from
natural resources. Seaweeds from the marine ecosystem are important source of
bioactive compounds making them one of the major subjects for screening of various
pharmaceutical drugs. So here, we assessed the bacterial growth inhibitory functions of four seaweeds Sargassum wightii ...

In this article, we
proposed a method for describing the evolution of quantum physical systems. We define
the action integral on the functional space and the entropy of distribution of
observable values on the set of quantum states. Dynamic of quantum system in
this article is described as dynamical system represented by one parametric semi
group which is extremal of this action integral. Evol ...

The crankshaft is the part of an engine which
translates reciprocating linear piston motion into rotation. Automobile
crankshaft failure, apart from poor maintenance culture, is caused by age and
distance covered. These attributes which caused crankshaft failure were
investigated using questionnaire administration and oral interviews of the
maintenance expert and experienced personnel
in the three selected ...
