The nanoparticles of Co Mn Fe O (0 x 0.5) ferrite system are synthesized by solid-state reaction route using planetary ball milling technique to investigate structural, electrical and magnetic properties. The X-ray diffraction patterns confirm the inverse spinel structure with residual oxide phases....

Visual identities are arguably the most prominent manifestation of a brand, and with universities around the world are behaving increasingly as corporations, there creative efforts towards rebranding and changes in their logo are recognised. Using the African higher education sector as an example, t...

Introduction: Despite substantial progress made in the field of acupuncture research, the existence and specificity of acupoints remain controversial. In recent years, the concept of acupoint sensitization has emerged as a theoretical framework for understanding acupoints as dynamic functional entit...

Abstract The presence of arsenic in tubewell water has been identified as a major health problem in Bangladesh. The Bangladesh Government, with international assistance, is attempting to mitigate the effects of arsenic by a major programme of tubewell water testing and education about arsenic and ho...

Introduction There has been growing concern about the widespread exposure of the Bangladeshi population to arsenic in tube well water. Many interventions and alternative water sources have been advocated as being appropriate solutions, on the grounds that they are effective in eliminating or reducin...

The novel polycrystalline Bi0.85Gd0.15CuxFe1-xO3 (x = 0, 0.025, 0.05, 0.075, 0.10) multiferroics are synthesized by the usual solid-state reaction route. The synthesis of the desired phase has been verified by the X-ray Diffraction (XRD) patterns. With major structural phases, few traces of secondar...

The authors assessed the contribution of food irrigated with arsenic-contaminated water to human exposure to arsenic in Bangladesh. An intervention trial was conducted in a village in the Jessore District of Bangladesh, where irrigation water had been field-tested in March 2000 and was found to cont...

We are discussing Tobias Wolffs story Say Yes in a writing class at Wayne State University, an urban, commuter school in Detroit. In this story a white wife and her husband confront assumptions about identity, race, and love. The story's revelationor lack of onegrows out of a conversation in which t...

There have been significant advances in noninsecticidal pest management. Insecticides, however, are still indispensable to rice farmers because they are effective, easy to use, and provide immediate results. Synthetic organic insecticides provide effective insect control, but their widespread use ha...

Formal population education is designed to teach children in school about basic population issues and, in many cases, to encourage them eventually to have smaller families. Some programs include specific units on human reproduction and family planning, while others do not. National population educat...

Alien species can have massive impacts on native biodiversity, ecosystem functioning, and human livelihoods. Assessing which species from currently cultivated alien floras may escape into the wild and naturalize is essential for efficient and proactive ecosystem management and biodiversity conservat...

This paper investigates the predictability with the banking sector data of the Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE) by using the Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) process. Through different formal tests on the data set, the best-fitted model selected was ARIMA (0,2,1) for the data series. This ...

Taro (Colocasia esculenta [L.] Schott) is a root crop widely grown in tropical and subtropical countries (Banjaw 2017). It makes up about 80% of the aroids (family Araceae) cultivated in Bangladesh (Bhuiyan et al. 2011). Dasheen mosaic virus (DsMV) is a potyvirus transmitted by aphids to many aroids...
