Isolation, Production and Purification of Antibiotics Isolation from Microbes from Soil
Abstract: A chemical compound acting against life is called antibiotics. The term “antibiotic” literally means “against life”. The term appeared as early as 1928 in the French microbiological literature as antibiosis. The phenomenon of antagonism between living organisms was frequently observed even since 1877, when Pasteur and Joubert noticed that aerobic bacteria antagonized the growth of Bacillus anthracis. However, the world in its present restrictive meaning, “a chemical substance derived from …

Development and Experimental Characterization of Metallic Spring Isolators for Electronic Packages of Air Borne Vehicles
Abstract: During flight, electronic packages in air borne vehicles will experience aerodynamic induced loads like random vibration and shock. PCBs mounted in these packages either malfunction or fail due to high vibration which is due to the stacked mounting of PCBs. Desired gap between any two adjacent PCBs will be maintained with the help of rigid spacers in this mounting. It is understood that the solution for reducing this high vibration …
