ICP-MS and ICP-OES – A Review
The most important aspect of pharmaceuticals is its safety and efficacy which determines the fundamental aspect of its drug therapy. Therefore controlling the levels of impurities in drugs is important. There are many different types of impurities that are present in pharmaceuticals, in this study the focus is on inorganic impurities and the analytical techniques used for its detection mainly ICP-MS, ICP-OES. These new methods address the limitations of the current methods like ‘heavy metal tests’, extending the list of analytes, reducing maximum permitted exposure limits and taking account of the route of exposure. In this study, we found that ICP-MS is an effective tool in impurity profiling of Single, Multi and speciation analysis of different element's present in bulk drugs and formulations. In recent scenario, many of the pharmaceutical industries are adopting these hyphenated techniques.

Comparative study of handwash and sanitizer on the removal of faecal bacteria
This study was carried out to check the effect of different hand wash products on faecal bacteria, it is a fact that hand hygiene prevents diarrhea infection. But compliance with recommended instruction is poor. In this experiment, we picked up faecal bacteria from hands by swabbing method they were then allocated randomly to 1.swab of beforehand washing 2-handwash with|Dettol liquid hand wash and Patanjali with hot water and cold water and with Sanitizer( DETTOL) and other products such as savlon and lifebuoy. In this experiment we used 40 swabs, bacteria of potentialfeacal origin mostly enterococcus and enterobacteria spp were found after no hand washing in of sample. PATANJALI didn't inhibit faecal bacteria while DETTOL inhibits faecal bacteria and itis effective product than PATANJALI hand wash. Hand washing with DETTOL is more effective for the removal of faecal bacteria as compared to other products like PATANJALI. PATANJALI contain herbal ingredients NEEM-2mg and TULSI- 2mg which has antibacterial properties but concentration was not enough to inhibit faecal bacteria as it was confirmed with MIC and MBC. The concentration should be increased for good result of PATANJALI hand wash, whereas DETTOL showed excellent results against feacal bacteria and SANITIZER showed a moderate effect

Wireless patient health- Care system
Monitoring patients has become the prime concern these days. Wireless Patient Health-Care System is developed for monitoring body temperature and heart rate of a patient constantly. The main objective of this application is real-time monitoring of the patient without being physically present in the doctor’s clinic. In this system, heart sensor and temperature sensor are connected to Arduino MEGA. Arduino MEGA processes the data and uploads the data on the website using ESP 8266. If any irregularities are noticed by the microcontroller, then it sends an alarm as an SMS to the doctor and the patients relative giving a warning that the patient needs immediate care. With this, the doctor can also view the patient’s history with the help of the data uploaded on the website for treating him later or to change the treatment if the earlier treatment doesn’t work on the patient.

Course selection process among prospective graduates – data mining techniques
This paper is very unique in the sense that it studies the inner pulse for higher secondary students and on what reasons and basis to select higher studies. This study is much significant for the reason that it analysis the mentality of the student community and what cares he/she takes in choosing the higher secondary courses. Here various tools like Weka and SPSS have been applied to interpret the results.

Influence of thermal barrier coating on combustion characteristics in a biodiesel fuelled Di diesel engine
There are so many methods are used to improve the efficiency of a diesel engine, reduced fuel consumption. For this purpose, one of the technologies is used that is ceramically coated IC engine. It is also known as Thermal barrier coating (TBC). In the present work, YSZ has used as thermal barrier coating on combustion chamber to increase the thermal efficiency and reduce the fuel consumption. In this experimentation, YSZ – TBC is done by plasma spray coating technique which is the simplest method. Production of biodiesel from algae is a promising option. The present work aims to focus on the performance of a diesel engine with algae oil as fuel. In order to use the oil in an engine, its blends with the petroleum diesel were prepared. It is found that the properties of neat algae oil and its blends are very close to the properties of neat diesel. The investigation was carried out in the single cylinder water cooled, constant speed DI diesel engine with Yttria Stabilized Zirconia as Thermal Barrier Coating with the Diesel fuel and various blends of biodiesel like B20, B40, B60, B80, and B100. Here, the investigation carried out at idle load, part load and full load conditions. The combustion characteristics were analyzed at various load conditions for baseline without coating and YSZ –TBC coated engine. Here, YSZ – TBC coated engine have better combustion characteristics compared with the uncoated engine because of the thermal barrier coating on combustion chamber which gives the high heat release rate due to its high coefficient and low thermal conductivity. The blend of B20 has higher heat release rate characteristics. The addition of fuel additives is one of the possible approaches for increases the combustion characteristics. The present work, DEE is used as additives to improve the combustion characteristics of YSZ – TBC coated engine. Among the various blends tested, B20 + 5% DEE has better combustion characteristics.

Study of unfurlable mechanism for space radars
Unfurlable rim truss antennae are considered to be the most suitable for developing large size aperture structures for space antenna. They have largely deployed to stowed volume ratio, precision, and reliability in its operation. The mechanism is capable of altering its configuration from a stowed to deployed shape to meet specific operational requirements of space-borne radar. The proposed study of unfurlable mechanism for paraboloid reflector antenna is made up number of parallelogram units comprised of links with appropriate hinge joints, which concatenate in a repeatable fashion to form the desired structure. This study include geometric modeling, kinematic simulation and preliminary structural analysis of unfurlable rim truss
