Apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) is a highly nutritious fruit with a variety of bioactive health promoting components. In the first experiment, among the tested varieties, Habi extracted with 80% methanol maintained the higher total phenolic contents, flavonoid contents, radicle scavenging activity and were equally good in regards to antibacterial potential against Escherichia coli, Salmonella entritidis, Pseudomonas flourescens and Helicobacter pylori. These collected extracts were then examined against different solvents. Similar trend was also observed in TPC, TFC, DPPH activity and antimicrobial activities against tested bacteria with butanol extracts of the Habi variety. In the second experiment, comparatively a higher TPC, TFC and DPPH activity was recorded in 4 hrs of extraction time with 40oC temperature at deep orange stage. Similar trend was also recorded in regards to antibacterial activities against tested pathogen respectively. The results also confirmed the higher potential of butanol then other counterparts indicating the maximum values of TPC, TFC and DPPH activity and antibacterial activities against four tested pathogens. In the third experiment, the spectrum of FTIR spectroscopy confirmed the presence of polyphenolic compounds in these extracts. HPLC analysis revealed presence of various bioactive compounds especially chlorogenic acid in butanol extract. These fractions also showed a significant antibacterial activity against four pathogens. This organism showed sensitivity to a dose of 20 μg/ml. It was further found that about 8.4 and 3.8 μg/ml of CA was present in one fruit on fresh and dry weight basis. Finally, H. pylori positive patients were identified followed by a dose of fresh and dried Habi variety to male and female patients for the period of 20 days. Later on, the results suggested that three dried apricots showed promising effects in the urease (up to 37.5%) and IgG (15.8%) of positive patients. So, three dried apricots (approx. 15 gm) are recommended for eradication of infection.

مو لانا محب ﷲ لاری ندوی

مولانا محب ﷲ لاری ندوی
افسوس ہے کہ مولانا محب اﷲ ندوی مہتمم دارالعلوم ندوۃ العلماء لکھنؤ، ۳۰؍ نومبر ۹۳؁ء کو رحلت فرماگئے، ان کی عمر ۸۸ برس تھی اور وہ نحیف و کمزور بھی ہوگئے تھے لیکن ندوۃ العلماء کے دور کمال کی ایک یادگار تھے اور ان کا وجود ندوۃ العلماء خصوصاً اس کے ناظم مولانا سید ابوالحسن علی ندوی مدظلہ کے لیے باعث تقویت تھا جن کے مرحوم ہم سبق تھے۔
ان کا وطن لارتھا، یہیں ابتدائی تعلیم حاصل کی۔ عربی تعلیم ندوۃ العلماء لکھنو اور انگریزی تعلیم علی گڑھ مسلم یونیورسٹی میں پائی اس کے بعد وہ چاہتے تو اچھی سی اچھی ملازمت مل جاتی مگر انھوں نے فراغت کے بعد کانپور میں اپنی انڈسٹری کرلی۔
کاروبار میں لگ جانے کے بعد بھی انھوں نے ندوۃ العلماء اور اس کے فضلا سے اپنا تعلق باقی رکھا اور اس کی مجلس انتظامیہ کے برابر رکن رہے۔ ۶۹؁ء میں بعض خاص حالات کی بناء پر انہیں دارالعلوم کے اہتمام کی ذمہ داری سپرد کی گئی جس کو کم و بیش ۲۵ برس تک وہ انجام دیتے رہے اور وفات کے بعد ہی اس سے سبکدوش ہوئے۔
دینداری، تقویٰ اور خشیتِ الٰہی ان کا شعار تھا، طبیعت میں اعتدال، سلامت روی سادگی اور انکسار تھا۔ اپنے اخلاص، مروت، شرافت اور حسن خلق کی بناء پر طلبہ، اساتذہ اور منتظمین کے حلقے میں مقبول رہے۔ اﷲ تعالیٰ اپنے اس نیک بندے کی مغفرت فرمائے، آمین۔
اب مولانا سید محمد رابع ندوی صاحب نے دارالعلوم ندوۃ العلماء کے اہتمام کی ذمہ داری سنبھال لی ہے، جن کا انتخاب ان کے طویل تجربہ اور دیرینہ خدمات کی بنا پر بہت مناسب ہوا ہے۔ (ضیاء الدین اصلاحی۔ جنوری ۱۹۹۴ء)

 

Analyzing the Impact of Lady Health Worker Program on Utilization of Maternal Health Services in Community With a Lady Health Worker in Sindh Province

The study aims to analyze impact of Lady Health Worker program on use of maternal health services in community with a lady health worker. The main focus was the rural districts of Sindh for this case study. The maternal health service is determined by at least four Antenatal care (ANC) visits provided to mother and receipt of at least two Tetanus Toxoid (TT) injections to mother during pregnancy. These have direct impact on maternal mortality rate and infant mortality rate. Secondary data pertaining to all districts of Sind for three years (2017-2019) was collected from the Sindh Lady Health Worker program office Hyderabad for analysis purpose. Further secondary data of Pakistan Demographic and Health Survey (2017-18) was also used to see the impact of intervention of LHW program implemented by Ministry of Health Pakistan in 1994 and then devolved to provinces after the implementation of 18th Constitutional Amendment in 2010. The study found that the services provided by the lady health workers in communities in these districts has positively influenced the uptake of maternal health services as determined by the variables like antenatal visits by pregnant mothers to nearest health facilities and receipt of Tetanus Toxoid injection during pregnancy.

Institutional Discrimination: A study of Family Institution in Their Eyes were Watching God and Passing

Institutional Discrimination: A study of Family Institution in Their Eyes were Watching God and Passing This study brings to light the effects of institutional discrimination on African American families depicted in Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston and Passing by Nella Larsen. African Americans try to use institution of marriage as a lever to uplift their social, moral and political status but American laws i.e. the Law of Legalization of Marriage, Naturalization (1855) , Jim Crow Laws (Florida law) and other established political, economic, social and marriage institutions framed discriminatory rules and created hurdles in their way. Under the aggravation of these rules, African American families are depicted insecure, weak, pathetic and loosely built. The issues of wretched Black American families have been analyzed in the selected novels in the backdrop of Critical Race theory. The theory deals with the issues of law, race and racial problems and works for the emancipation of victims. Textual analysis technique has been used in this study. The study concludes that racism is engrained in the fabric of American society resulting into devastating outcomes for African American family institutions which are no more institutionalized love affairs based on respect and mutual reciprocity. This ultimately has become the cause of poverty, suppression, split personalities, discrimination, sexual objectification, terrible hardships and stereotyping.
