Isolation and Partial Characterization of a Lectin from Seeds of Pongamia Glabra
Abstract: Lectins are non-immunogenic proteins that selectively bind carbohydrates without processing them enzymatically.They have wide range of applications in agricultural and biomedical research and it is useful in the antidotal treatment of snake bite. Seed lectins can be attributed to the importance of legume seeds as a rich source of dietary protein. The Pongamia glabra were homogenized by using distilled acetone. The defatted dried seed meal was mixed with 20mm Phosphate …

Influence of wall friction on Active Earth Pressure in Model Test
Abstract: Earth pressure theories occupy a paramount position in the field of geotechnical engineering. The knowledge of active earth pressure under static condition is essential in designing a retaining wall as the damage to such retaining structures may lead to disastrous failure. A retaining wall helps in maintaining the ground surface at different elevations on either side of it. Without such a structure, the soil at higher elevation would tend to …

Stress Perception among School-age Children
Abstract: Introduction: Prosody is the inflection embedded in speech. The perception of prosody is necessary to understand a spoken utterance, especially to appreciate the intricacies of languages. The influence of prosody is also beyond the boundaries of a sentence and provides speech its emotional tone. Prosody or the supra-segmental is made of stress (accent), intonation (pitch patterns) and the rhythmic (timing) pattern of language. Acoustically, it is described in terms of …

Automatic annotation of reading using Speech Recognition: A pilot study
Abstract: Speech is a time-varying continuous stimulus. Analyzing a speech sample is generally done by transcribing it which can be considered to be a time-consuming process. A time annotated transcription is required for a detailed evaluation of the speech sample to study the language and prosodic features. The focus of this paper is to develop a tool to automatically segment audio recordings into silences and chunks of speech corpus and further …
