Performance of Structure with Fixed Base and Lead Rubber Bearing: Review
Abstract: Base Isolation approach is the most normally used method to defend a shape from earthquake. The thinking in the back of this approach is to detach the superstructure from floor with the aid of introducing bendy isolators between basis and superstructure. These isolators soak up electricity or vibrations and shield shape from an earthquake. Since the last fifteen years, the base isolation technique has been regarded as one of the …

Detection and Identification of Fungal Pathogens by Multiplex PCR in Pulmonary Tuberculosis Patients in Kancheepuram
Abstract: Tuberculosis is a common infection in developing countries. Pulmonary tuberculosis is the most commonly associated disease in cases of secondary aspergilloma. Fungus infection is gradually becoming commoner and has been difficult to evaluate since diagnoses were seldom confirmed. Multiplex PCR method provides a rapid, simple, and reliable alternative to conventional methods to identify common clinical fungal isolates. Hence, this study was taken up to find the fungal co-infections among TB …
