Background Hemophilia B (HB) is an X-linked bleeding disorder resulting from coagulation factor IX defects. Over 3,000 pathogenic, HB-associated mutations in the F9 gene have been identified. We aimed to investigate the role of F9 variants in 150 HB patients using sequencing technology. Methods F9 gene sequences were amplified from peripheral blood-derived DNA and sequenced on an Applied Biosystems (ABI) 3500 Sanger sequencing platform. Functional and structural predictions of mutant FIX were analyzed. Results Among 150 HB patients, 102 (68%), 30 (20%), and 18 (12%) suffered from severe, moderate, and mild HB, respectively. Genetic analysis identified 16 mutations, including 3 novel mutations. Nine mutations (7 missense and 2 stop-gain) were found to be pathogenic. Only 3 mutations (c.127C>T, c.470G>A, and c.1070G>A) were associated with different severities. While 2 mutations were associated with mild HB cases (c.304C>T and c.580A>G), 2 (c.195G>A and c.1385A>G) and 3 mutations (c.223C>T, c.1187G>A, and c.1232G>A) resulted in moderate and severe disease, respectively. Additionally, 1 mutation each was associated with mild-moderate (c.*1110A>G) and mild-severe HB disease (c.197A>T), 4 mutations were associated with moderate-severe HB cases (c.314A>G, c.198A>T, c.676C>T, and c.1094C>A). FIX concentrations were lower in the mutated group (5.5±2.5% vs. 8.0±2.5%). Novel p.E66D and p.S365 mutations were predicted to be pathogenic based on changes in FIX structure and function. Conclusion Novel single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) largely contributed to the pathogenesis of HB. Our study strongly suggests that population-based genetic screening will be particularly helpful to identify risk prediction and carrier detection tools for Indian HB patients.
Bioremediation of imidacloprid using Azospirillium biofertilizer and Rhizobium biofertilizer

Imidacloprid is a pesticide used for agricultural purposes. Residue of pesticide in water and soil will affect the water and soil quality. Seepage out of imidacloprid to the ecological system could affect aquatic life as well as human. The toxic pollutants would affect the quality of agriculture run off, in turn contaminating water bodies acting as sink for these runoffs. Hence, there is need for reparation of these pollutants. Azospirillium biofertilizer and Rhizobium biofertilizer were used as adsorbent for the removal of imidacloprid. These biofertilizers have capability to reduce the harmful component as well as be useful for plant growth. Azospirillium bacteria and Rhizobium bacteria are competent for the removal of organic pollutant from wastewater. These biofertilizers maintain biological activity without any adverse effect. The adsorptive removal of imidacloprid by using Azospirillium biofertilizer and Rhizobium biofertilizer was investigated at different conditions using batch experimentation. Optimization of parameters, such as dosage, time, temperature, pH, and agitation speed, was carried out. Equilibrium adsorption was illustrated by Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms. The kinetic data was best described by intraparticle diffusion and pseudo-second-order model. Reusability study showed good removal efficiency of imidacloprid after fourth use also. The investigations show that these materials have potential to be an excellent alternative for removal of pesticides while supporting plant growth.

Magnetite nanoparticles were prepared by co-precipitation method and then silica was coated onto the surface of $Fe_3O_4$ by hydrolysis of TEOS. The silica coated magnetite nanoparticles were characterized for its structural, microstructural, optical, vibrational and magnetic properties by X-ray diffraction analysis, Scanning electron microscopy, UV-visible spectroscopy, Infrared spectroscopy and Vibration sample magnetometer, respectively. XRD study confirmed the presence of $SiO_2$ on the surface of magnetite nanoparticles. SEM study indicated that with increase in TEOS content the particles become bigger and mono-disperse. It was also found that the silica coating prevents magnetic particles from aggregation and imparts excellent stability.

Functionally graded materials (FGMs) are becoming very popular in various industries due to their effectiveness of the utilization of their constituent elements. However, the modelling of these materials is difficult due to the complex nature of variation of material properties across the thickness. Many shear deformation theories have been developed and employed for the analysis of such functionally graded plates (FGPs). A recently developed inverse hyperbolic shear deformation theory has been successfully employed by Grover et al. [1] for the analysis of laminated composites and sandwich plates. The objective of the study is to obtain finite element solution for the structural analysis of functionally graded plates using inverse hyperbolic shear deformation theory. Finite element analysis facilitates the analysis of complex problems such as functionally graded plates with different boundary conditions and different loadings.

Design of a High-performance High-pass Generalized Integrator Based Single-phase PLL
Kulkarni, Abhijit,John, Vinod The Korean Institute of Power Electronics 2017 JOURNAL OF POWER ELECTRONICS Vol.17 No.5
Grid-interactive power converters are normally synchronized with the grid using phase-locked loops (PLLs). The performance of the PLLs is affected by the non-ideal conditions in the sensed grid voltage such as harmonics, frequency deviations and the dc offsets in single-phase systems. In this paper, a single-phase PLL is presented to mitigate the effects of these non-idealities. This PLL is based on the popular second order generalized integrator (SOGI) structure. The SOGI structure is modified to eliminate the effects of input dc offsets. The resulting SOGI structure has a high-pass filtering property. Hence, this PLL is termed as a high-pass generalized integrator based PLL (HGI-PLL). It has fixed parameters which reduces the implementation complexity and aids in the implementation in low-end digital controllers. The HGI-PLL is shown to have the lowest resource utilization among the SOGI based PLLs with dc cancelling capability. Systematic design methods are evolved leading to a design that limits the unit vector THD to within 1% for given non-ideal input conditions in terms of frequency deviation and harmonic distortion. The proposed designs achieve the fastest transient response. The performance of this PLL has been verified experimentally. The results agree with the theoretical prediction.
EXPERIMENTAL CHARACTERISATION OF VLSI INTERCONNECTS USED IN HIGH-SPEED MULTICHIP MODULES
Kulkarni,S. Y.,Murthy,K. V. V. 대한전자공학회 1995 ICVC : International Conference on VLSI and CAD Vol.4 No.1
The cross-talk voltage generated by on-chip and off chip circuitry is one of the major considerations in IC design and package for high-speed systems. These crosstalk effects increase as a result of shorter rise times, larger chip currents, greater die dimensions and smaller spacing between the circuit components on the chips and boards. As a consequence of this the system-performance is mainly governed by the performance of interconnection system-performance. Considerable amount of work has been done theoretically to characterize such interconnection performance. However, the experimental characterisation aspects of such high-speed interconnects has received very less attention. In this paper, an effort has been made to characterise such interconnects experimentally. The results obtained from such characterisation are used to validate the theoretical results.
