The present study was designed to evaluate the protective/ameliorative ability of different adsorbing agents like bentonite clay (BC), distillery sludge (DS) and milk thistle (MT) against ochratoxin A (OTA) and aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) induced toxicopathological, serum biochemical, immunological, antioxidant and tissue residual alterations in broilers. For this purpose, a series of experiments were conducted in which OTA was used at the rates of 0.15, 0.3 and 1.0 mg/kg feed while different adsorbing agents were used at the rates of 5, 10 and 20 g/kg (Experiment 1-3). However, AFB1 was used at the rates of 0.1, 0.2 and 0.6 mg/kg feed while different adsorbing agents were used at the rates of 5 and 10 g/kg feed (Experiment 4-6). The parameters studied were toxicopathological parameters (clinical signs and behavioral parameters, mortality, FCR, body weight gain, relative organ weights of liver, kidney, spleen, bursa of Fabricius and thymus, gross lesions and its scoring and histopathological studies of liver, kidney, bursa of Fabricius and thymus, serum biochemical parameters (ALT, Urea, Creatinine, total protein, albumin and globulin), immunological parameters (antibody response to sheep RBCs, lymphoproliferative response to PHA-P and phagocytic index determined by carbon clearance assay), total antioxidant capacity of birds in liver, kidney, muscles and plasma) and tissue residue analysis in liver. Results of these experiments showed that feeding BC with OTA did not cause any amelioration in OTA induced alterations yet some improvement of these parameters was observed when compared with individual OTA groups however, feeding 5 and 10 g/kg DS ameliorated OTA induced alterations at 0.15 and 0.3 mg/kg OTA levels while partial amelioration was observed by DS at 1 mg/kg OTA level. Feeding 5 g/kg MT showed amelioration at 0.15 mg/kg OTA only while 10 and 20 g/kg MT showed ameliorations at all levels of OTA used. Regarding aflatoxicosis feeding 5 and 10 g/kg BC ameliorated 0.1 and 0.2 mg/kg AFB1 induced deleterious effects while partial amelioration was observed when these BC levels were fed alone with 0.6 mg/kg AFB1. Feeding 5 and 10 g/kg DS caused amelioration at 0.1 and 0.2 mg/kg AFB1 while partial amelioration was observed when 0.6 mg/kg AFB1 was used however, feeding 5 g/kg MT caused amelioration at 0.1 and 0.2 mg/kg AFB1 while 10 g/kg MT showed amelioration at all levels of AFB1used.

فیض کی نظم ’’ہم دیکھیں گے‘‘ کا تنقیدی جائزہ

موضوع 6:فیض احمد فیض کی نظم " ہم دیکھیں گے " کا تنقیدی جا ئزہ
ہم دیکھیں گے لازم ہے کہ ہم بھی دیکھیں گے
وہ دن کہ جس کا وعدہ ہے جو لوحِ ازل میں لکھا ہے
جب ظلم و ستم کے کوہ گراں روئی کی طرح اڑ جائیں گے
ہم محکوموں کے پاؤں تلے یہ دھرتی دھڑدھڑدھڑکے گی
اور اہلِ حکم کے سر اوپر جب بجلی کڑ کڑ کڑکے گی
جب ارضِ خدا کے کعبے سے سب بت اٹھوائے جائیں گے
ہم اہلِ صفا، مردودِ حر مسند پہ بٹھائے جائیں گے
سب تاج اچھالے جائیں گے سب تخت گرائے جائیں گے
بس نام رہے گا اللہ کا جو غائب بھی ہے حاضر بھی
جو منظر بھی ہے ناظر بھی اٹھے گا انا الحق کا نعرہ
جو میں بھی ہوں اور تم بھی ہو اور راج کرے گی خلقِ خدا
جو میں بھی ہوں اور تم بھی ہو
تنقیدی جائزہ
نظم کے عنوان کا پس منظر
"ہم دیکھیں گے" فیض احمد فیض کی ایک انتہائی مشہور و مقبول نظم ہے جس کا اصل عنوان "ویبقیٰ وجہ ربک" تھا۔ فیض کی یہ اکیس سطری نظم ان کے ساتویں شعری مجموعہ "میرے دل میرے مسافر" میں شامل ہے۔ فیض نے اس نظم کو پاکستانی آمر جنرل ضیاء الحق کے عہد حکومت کے استبداد کے خلاف احتجاجاً لکھا تھا لیکن جب مشہور مغنیہ اقبال بانو نے 13 فروری 1986ء کو الحمرا آرٹس کونسل کے ایک اجلاس میں سیاہ لباس پہن کر اسے پڑھا تو یہ نظم احتجاج و انقلاب کا استعارہ بن گئی اور ترقی پسندوں اور بائیں بازوکے افراد کی زبانوں پر مزاحمتی گیت کی شکل میں جاری ہو گئی۔اقبال بانو نے اس نظم کو ایسے وقت میں گایا تھا جب فیض کی شاعری پر پابندی عائد تھی اور سامعین میں اس قدر جوش امڈ آیا تھا کہ...

دراسة مقارنة في تعيين الزمان والمكان والأعلام عند شراح البخاري (الكرماني وابن حجر نموذجاً)

Sahih al-Bukhari by Imam Abu Abdullah Mohammad al-Bukhari comes second to the Holy Quran as a fundamental source of Islam. It is a most authentic collection of sayings and deeds of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH), which covers almost all aspects of life in providing proper guidance from the Messenger of Allah. The Muslim scholars of past and present time gave great importance to this book by making their efforts to extract the hidden treasures from this book and to present the different approaches and benefits of this book. “Al Kawakib Ad Durari” by Imam Alkirmani is an old explanation of Sahih Bukhari. During studying “Fath al Bari” I found that Alhafiz Ibne Hajar has consulted “Al Kawakib Ad Durari” and quoted Imam Alkirmani’s commentary and added it. Alhafiz Ibn e Hajar differs at many times with the opinions of Imam Alkirmani about specific time, place, different tribes and personalities mentioned in the text of traditions. I wanted to study such analysis to check the right opinion after comparing statements of both Imams and by consulting with the statements of other scholars of this field. This article approves that judgments of Ibn e Hajar about specific time, place, different tribes and personalities are more authentic than opinions of imam Alkirmani.

Effect of Biocides on Biofilm Bacteria from Dental Plaque

The oral diseases (dental caries and periodontal diseases) are major public health problems and are found the most prevalent diseases of mankind. Accumulation and adherence of bacterial biofilm on tooth surfaces as dental plaque mainly cause for two human diseases like inflammatory periodontal disease and dental caries. The defensive immune systems and resident microbial flora are responsible for balance in oral health. Disruption of balance favours the colonisation of transient bacteria and commensal that may lead to localised infections e.g. periodontal, endodontic, and gingival infections. Oral cavity may provide suitable environment for the exchange and store of genetic material. Bacteria from the oral cavity have acquired resistance against antibiotics and/or biocides due to inadequate or extensive use of biocides and antibiotics in the field of dentistry and medicine. In this study five dental plaque samples were collected from five healthy individual for isolation, characterization and to check the efficacy of biocides on growth and biofilm formation of oral microbes. Susceptibility pattern of oral isolates were observed against different concentrations (0.1, 1, 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 μg/ml) of four biocides/ commercially available mouth-washes by culture dependent method. These include Chlorhexidine (CHX) 0.2%, Benzidamine hydrochloride (BZD) 0.15%, Sodium fluoride 0.05% and potassium chloride 0.05%, and Benzidamine hydrochloride 0.15% and Chlorhexidine 0.2%). Thirty four (70%), 9 (18%), 2 (04%), 2 (04%) and 2 (04%) out of total 58 oral isolates were found with common biocides resistance pattern and showed reduce susceptibility against different concentrations 0.1, 1.0, 10, 20, 30 μgml-1of all four biocides respectively. All the 58 isolates were found sensitive at concentrations (40 and 50 μgml-1) of four biocides. Overall, 9 (15%) out of total fifty eight (58) plaque isolates were selected on different morphological basis and common resistance (1.0 μgml-1) against four biocides. Dental plaque bacteria were characterized morphologically, biochemically, physiologically and genetically; phylogenic analysis was also performed. The molecular characterization reveals that isolates N4A, B1E, N1D, N2C, N2D, N3C, N3D, N4E, and C2E belong to genera including Acinetobacter schindleri (JF837190), Morexiella acj (JF837191), Chryseobacterium culicis (KR002422), Chryseobacterium indologenes (KR002424), Acinetobacter johnsonii (KR002423), Enterobacter ludwigii (KR002425), Pseudomonas stutzeri (KC817808), Streptococcus salivarius (KC817808) and Bacillus cereus (JF837191) respectively. The isolates were variably resistant to multiple drugs including ampicillin, kanamycin, gentamicin and tetracycline, erythromycin, vancomycin and chloramphenicol. Seven out of nine isolates Summary 2 have shown resistance to ampicillin and tetracycline while erythromycin found the most effective drug with active susceptibility for six oral bacteria. Results indicated that all the plaque isolates were biofilm producers in the absence and presence of CHX within 24, 72 and 120 hours (hrs). High variation in biofilm forming ability of isolates was observed with exhibition of strong biofilm within 120 hrs followed by 72 hrs and 24 hrs. Study results directed that CHX+BZD with 1 μg/ml were found the most effective biocide for biofilm inhibition in 24 hrs. The effect of four biocides CHX, BZD, NaF+KCl and CHX+BZD (1.0 μg/ml stress) against biofilm bacteria in comparison with control (0 μg/ml stress) cells was analyzed statistically. It was found highly significant with P < 0.0001. Exposure of biofilms of these resistant species to undiluted commercial CHX mouthwash for intervals from 5 to 60 s indicated that the mouthwash was unlikely to eliminate them from dental plaque in vivo. Two species, Chryseobacterium indologenes and Chryseobacterium culicis were able to grow planktonically and form biofilms in the presence of 32 μg/ml CHX. Multidrug and CHX resistant C. indologenes demonstrated a 19-fold up-regulation of expression of gene CIN01S_RS05745 that encode the HlyD-like periplasmic adaptor protein of a tripartite efflux pump upon exposure to sub inhibitory concentration 16 μg/ ml of CHX suggesting that multidrug resistance may be mediated by this system. Bioinformatics analysis reveals the homology of this protein with RND family of transporters proteins (NCBI accession # TIGR01730) with e-value 2.08e-49. The signal of gene up regulation were also confirmed with the presence of 1250 bp amplification band of study gene flanking regions using reverse transcriptase PCR (RT-PCR). Northern hybridization reveals ̴6.3kb sized operon that encode for putative tripartite efflux pump. Furthermore, the ability of the selected actinomycetes to control biofilm of plaque bacteria was also accessed and observed that three out of ten Streptomyces strains named as S. erythrogriseus and S. labedae showed good antibacterial activity against Moraxella and Acinetobacter oral strains while S. macrosporeus can only inhibit biofilm formation by Bacillus cereus. Further study is required to show the transcriptomic picture of some CHX resistant genes in C. indologenes. This study has shown the resistance gene in emerging but uncommon pathogen; that will probably attract the researcher’s intension as new resistant bacterial species in dental setting. It has also pointed out the alarming situation with long term use of CHX (antiseptic/ oral care products) may cause resistance and/or may pose threat in the contribution of resistance gene to other dental microbiota. Future plan is to analyze the whole genome sequence data for genome comparison and for searching out CHX resistance efflux protein in newly Summary 3 sequenced C. culicis oral isolate. The whole genome sequencing data processing of C. culicis is going on for annotation using Rapid Annotation Subsystem Technology (RAST) tool.
