Evaluation of nuclear reaction cross section data was performed for the production of radionuclides of yttrium i.e. 86,87,88Y for medical applications via charhged particle induced reactions on different targets of 86.87,88Sr, 85Rb and natZr. Nuclear reaction cross sections for the production of these radionuclides were also measured experimentally via deuteron induced reaction on natural zirconium target up to 50 MeV beam energy by stack foil activation technique followed by gamma ray spectroscopy at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab, USA. A comprehensive analysis of all the experimental data obtained during actual experiment, EXFOR database and literature was done. The nuclear model calculations were performed by using nuclear model codes i.e. ALICE-IPPE, TALYS 1.6 and EMPIRE to check the reliability and consistency of experimental data. The recommended cross sections were generated based on our evaluation methodology. Yield of each radionuclide was calculated from the recommended cross sections. Medical applications of these radionuclides demand that they should be in a pure form, free from any radionuclidic impurity. So analysis of radionuclidic impurities associated with each reaction was performed based on our recommended cross sections and TALYS calculations. The recommended cross sections, yield and accompanying impurities are used for optimization of different charged particle induced reactions for the production of 86,87,88Y.

غلام احمد فرقت اردو زبان کے بڑے اچھے نثرنگار اورشاعر تھے۔انہوں نے طنز نگاری کاایک دلکش اسلوب پیدا کیا تھا۔جس میں قومی اوروطنی معاملات و مسائل پربہت دلچسپ اورمعنی خیز تبصرہ کرجاتے تھے۔اس اعتبار سے اگران کو اردو نثر کا اکبرالٰہ آبادی کہاجائے توبجا ہے۔ان کے نگارشات کے متعدد مجموعے شائع ہوچکے ہیں۔ان کی موت بڑی حسرت ناک ہوئی، ریل میں سفرکررہے تھے کہ دل کادورہ پڑا اوروہ وہیں ختم ہوگئے۔اﷲ تعالیٰ ان سب مرحومین کومغفرت و بخشش کی نعمتوں سے نوازے۔ [فروری۱۹۷۳ء]

قذف اور پاکستانی معاشرہ: اسلامی حوالے سے تنقیدی جائزہ

Arbitrariness, unpredictability and instability of the present society are the consequences of alleging and accusing each other, absurdly and misleadingly. It is crucial to stop such felony to rescue standards of living in the society and, to prevent the society from the destroyer blazing of this evil deed. Islam is a perfect religion and helps circumventing all the problems of the society. Therefore Islam is the only religion which punishes with eighty stripes for false accusation. The chastisement is ruled to prevent people from such delinquencies and to keep morality in the society. This article articulates such theme.

Establishment, Screening and Characterization of Salt Stress Tolerance in Glycine Max L.

Glycine max (L.) Merr.production is affected by a number of biotic and abiotic stresses. In order to overcome these challenges, development of transgenic plants, production of high-quality varieties and secondary metabolites, preservation of rare plants and protection of germplasms is of prime importance. In this regard, proper regeneration system for plant growth is needed to overcome dormancy and low germination issues by using appropriate growth hormones. In the proposed study, Glycine max (Variety Swat84) was assessed to investigate salt tolerance on the basis of growth, yield, physiological and biochemical responses. Seeds were germinated on MS medium with different concentrations of hormones for plantlet formation. Excellent callus was formed using 2, 4-D (2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid) at 4.0 mg L-1 concentration. Significant induction and elongation of shoot were recorded using a combination of BAP (6Benzylaminopurine) +KIN (Kinetin) at 2.0 mg L-1 + 1.0 mg L-1 respectively while maximum root induction and elongation were recorded using IBA (Indole-3-butryic acid) at 0.5 mg L-1 concentration. For the salt tolerance experiment, 0.10 g of callus was shifted to MS medium supplemented with NaCl (sodium chloride) at concentrations of 0, 50, 100, 150 and 200 mM.Callus formation showed considerable decrease at all salt concentrations as compared to control. Under saline conditions, stunted shoot growth, leaf chlorosis and defoliation occurred with increasing salt stress. The root length also decreased significantly at all salt treatments from 50 mM NaCl to 200 mM NaCl.The screening of selected clones were performed by using growth rate in term of fresh and dry weight as well as fresh and dry weight ratio of callus, shoot and root. Membrane thermo stability (EC), lipid peroxidation (MDA) and Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) assays were performed to assess the stress induced damages. Salt stress significantly showed high electrolyte leakage of membranes and MDA contents both in callus and shoot. While, H2O2 intensity in callus showed an increase at 100 mM concentration and in shoot, an increase in H2O2 intensity was observed at 50 mM.Whereas, maximum proline was found at 100 mM NaCl concentration in both callus and shoot. Regarding total soluble protein, an increase at 200 mM concentration was observed in callus while an increase was observed at 100 mM NaCl in shoot.Furthetmore,SDS-PAGE analysis revealed that in both callus and shoot, the band intensity decreased with increasing salt stress level, but at 100 mM concentration, a 75kDa band was differentially expressed and all bands showed almost lowest level of intensity at NaCl 200 mM. From the results of present analysis, it can be concluded that salt stress has a destructive effecton the plants development, growth, physiology and yield.The intense effects of salinity can be overcome by using salt tolerant cell lines and maintain sustained growth on medium supplemented with NaCl when compared to salt sensitive cell lines. The significance of this study was to identify the optimal concentration of MS medium with growth hormones for improving the regeneration of Glycine max to reduce the period of regeneration using cotyledonary node.Transgenic crops can be developed which can be used not only for expression of different biochemical functions, but also for stress signal transduction that increase stress effects in plants. For cell protection, higher amount of proline and protein play an important role against oxidative stresses. Collectively, all these mechanisms allow plants to stay alive under extreme salt stress thereby leading to higher yield production of Glycine max.
