Modified Double-Diffusive Convection in Viscoelastic Fluid
Abstract: Normal 0 false false false EN-IN X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Modified double-diffusive convection in viscoelastic fluid of the Veronis’ and Stern’s type configurations is considered in the present paper. Semi-circle theorems that prescribe upper limits for the complex growth rate of oscillatory motions of neutral or growing amplitude are derived. The limits so derived naturally culminate in sufficient conditions which precludes the non-existence of such motions. The results obtained herein significantly …

UV Induced Increase in Activity of Subtilisin from Bacillus subtilis MTCC441
Abstract: Microorganisms are constantly exposed to varying physical, chemical and biological conditions which induce morphological, biochemical and genetic changes in them. These changes may be deleterious to some organisms whereas others develop mechanisms to overcome such stresses. This study was conducted to understand the microbiological and biochemical changes in bacteria under conditions of UV stress. Bacillus subtilis MTCC441, a ubiquitous, spore forming bacterium was chosen as the model organism for this …
