A Study on Increasing Sensitivity of Microcantilever Biosensor of Different Geometries
Abstract: In this paper, the authors present the activities within their research group on increasing the sensitivity of microcantilever of SU-8/2050. They believe that SU-8 is an interesting polymer for fabrication of cantilevers for biosensing due to its simple processing and low Young’s modulus. They show that the SU-8 cantilever surface can be functionalized directly with receptor molecules for analyte detection, thereby avoiding gold layer. To increase the overall sensitivity of …

Impact of Fertigation on Soil Nutrient Dynamics in Dalbergia sissoo tree plantations
Abstract: Fertigation allows the controlled placement of nutrients reducing fertilizer losses through leaching and minimize groundwater pollution. In fertigation Nutrient Use Efficiency (NUE) could be as high as 90% compared to 40-60% in conventional method of fertilizer application. Standardizing nutrient management with micro-irrigation system would require consideration to be contributed to soil nutrient dynamics. A field trial was conducted in Forest College and Research Institute, Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Mettupalayam, Tamil …

Versatile Uses of Young Bamboo Shoots in India: An Appraisal
Abstract: Bamboos are popularly recognized as ‘Bio-Steel, ‘Green Gold’ or appropriately termed as ‘the poor man’s timber’ due to its availability, resourcefulness, and invariable uses. Bambusoid grasses are much talked about for their contribution to the environment. Nevertheless, the food potentiality of the bamboo shoots remained unexploited and investigations on their nutritional, pharmaceutical, and medicinal potentiality is also scarce. The present paper attempts to provide an assessment of its versatile properties, …
