Natural fragrant microcapsule with gelatin and gum as a wall material palmarosa as a core material were prepared by complex cocervation technique. Different variables, including ratio of essential oil, gum, gelatin, temperature and pH were optimized on the basis of comparative analysis through visual assessment under inverted microscope. Result showed that medium sized microcapsules having sharp and thick wall and good uniformity in size and distribution were formed at ratio of 1:2:4 of oil, gum and gelatin, at a temperature of 50°C with initial and final pH 4.5 and 9.0, respectively. Hence, these optimized ratios were selected for preparation of microcapsules.Keywords

The present study was undertaken with specific objectives to assess the anthropometric measurements ofICDS and non-ICDS children and the factors affecting them. The study was conducted in Bhawarna and Sulah blocks of district Kangra of Himachal Pradesh. A total sample of 150(100 ICDS and 50 Non-I CDS) preschoolers in the age group of 3-6 years was randomly selected. The data were collected through self structured interview schedule. The findings indicated that anthropometric measurements of both ICDS&non- ICDS respondent's were less than the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) standards with few exceptions in case offemale ICDS respondents where BMI was higher than National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS). In case of female non-ICDS respondents, ratio of chest/head circumference was higher than the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS). On applying the coefficient of correlation, age and income of the ICDS respondents was significantly correlated with height and weight whereas in case of non-ICDS respondents, age and income was significantly correlated with height and BMI of the respondents.Keywords

In this study woven cotton fabric is treated with geranium oil microcapsules through pad dry cure technique to incorporate aroma finish. Geranium oil microcapsules were prepared by complex cocervation technique. Abrasion resistance and wash durability of aroma finished fabric was tested and analysis for retention of aroma was carried out by olfactory analysis done by 25 respondents. Analysis for presence of microcapsules was done through Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Wash fastness and abrasion resistance of aroma finished fabric by oil microcapsules with pad-dry-cure technique were tested against the fabric finished by direct method. The findings of the present study revealed that wash fastness and abrasion resistance has increased manifold in fabric treated with oil microcapsules as compared to direct method. On the surface of microencapsulated treated fabric numerous microcapsules containing geranium essential oil inside the matrix varying in their size and shapes were found, however in case of direct method some residue of citric acid was observed by SEM.Keywords

Right to education is globally recognized as a fundamental human right adopted by the UN General Assembly on 10 December 1948 and this right came in to effect in India, 1st April, 2010. This study explores the problem of low level learning outcome in government elementary school. The research was conducted in six adopted villages (Jant, Dholi, Bhurjat, Malra, Lawan, & Pali) by Central University of Haryana in Mahendergarh district. Descriptive survey method was used consist a sample of 60 parents selected by purposive sampling and ten parents were selected from each village. Information was collected by Self developed interview schedule. The study found that 47%are illiterate, 78% of parents have Lack of awareness towards their child's education,73% Parents haven't interest to knowing about their child's learning progress or don't like to visit school for any other purposes,70% Parents complain about Remaining vacant period (children tells to parents about Remaining vacant period), 12% Children do not attend school,100%, i.e., All Parents say that PTA meeting not organised in Govt. School since 2 years or there is no information of PTA meeting, 52% Parents tells that there is no good teaching in government school,78% Parents tells that teachers do not give or check homework regularly,58% Parents tells that Teachers remain absent, one or two periods daily vacant. In the Government elementary school there is a need of great leader/ principal/Headmaster to control, to manage or to running a govt, elementary school in a proper way and needs to be maintained with healthy teaching-leaming environment so that students find it to be an inviting environment to coming every day to leam.Keywords

The exploration for beneficial rhizosphere-competent bacteria commenced with screening isolated strains for plant growth-promoting attributes, including secretion of indole-3-acetic acid, gibberellins, 1-aminocyclopropane- 1-carboxylic acid deaminase, solubilization of phosphate and zinc. The secretion of flavonoid-like compounds revealed quantitative as well qualitative variability among the isolates as their culture supernatant exhibited several fluorescent compounds on TLC plates with different mobilities. Inoculation of seeds with effective isolates under axenic condition enhanced plant growth and induced flavanoids secretion from ischolar_mains, although the effect was only quantitative. The prospective bioinoculants exhibited competence in lieu of intrinsic antibiotic resistance, amylase production, biofilm formation, ischolar_main infectivity, salinity tolerance and exopolysaccharide production. Seed bacterization with potential isolates alone and in consortium with rhizobia stimulated growth of chickpea plants under controlled condition.Keywords
