Maize is third important cereal crop in Pakistan and is used for both feed and fodder purpose. It is a good source of protein which is not only important in the human body but also widely used in the industry. Zein is a valuable maize protein that is hydrophobic in nature. It has potential use in different industries. The objective of research was to extract and explore potential of zein as an antimicrobial agent, moisture barrier and as an encapsulating material. In present study, zein was extracted from five different indigenous maize varieties by using three different concentration of ethanol (60%, 75% and 90%). The extracted zein was characterized to check its functional properties, antioxidant activity and antimicrobial activity. Zein is used for encapsulation of bioactive compounds and essential oils. Ginger oil was encapsulated in zein and zein/gum Arabic combination. Ginger oil has been used for many times as medicine. Its compounds are important for curing different diseases especially gastrointestinal diseases. The encapsulated material was then characterized by different analysis for structural properties and morphological properties.Controlled release of oil from nanocapsules was also determined. The encapsulated material was used in product development to evaluate its availability. The product was analyzed for different parameters and its dough rheology was also checked. It was stored for two months. All the data obtained was statistically analyzed. Agaiti-2002 was found best among these five varieties as it has higher protein and fibre content. In mineral profile zinc was found higher in this variety and zein extraction was also found maximum in this variety at all three levels of ethanol percentage and it may be due to high protein percent in this variety. The zein extracted from this variety was also higher in antioxidant potential and functional properties which included foaming properties and emulsifying properties. So Agaiti-2002 was selected for zein extraction and further analyses of zein. Zein/ ginger oil nanoparticles were produced in size 200-500nm and no structural change occur in encapsulating material during production of nanoparticles. After reconstituting lyophilized nanoparticles powder dispersions prepared at different pH which presented the steady release of ginger oil at a lower pH in minimum time. Zein and zein/gum Arabic combination used in production of bread by supplementing flour and significant improvement in physical dough characteristics and internal characteristics of bread was seen.

a. Alif. Lam. Mim.

29:02
a. Do the people think they can get away with just uttering the word:
b. ‘We believe,’
c. and they will not be tested?

29:03
a. And certainly, WE did put to the test those before them,
b. and will be putting people to the test now and always, too.
c. So Allah will surely make known those who are sincere believers,
d. and, HE will also make known those who are liars.

a. Or, do those who do sinful deeds reckon that they can escape US?
b. No. Never!
c. How wrong do they judge!

29:05
a. As for those who look forward with hope and awe to the meeting with Allah should hold
firm -
b. for the appointed time by Allah is definitely coming.
c. And, HE is The All-Listening, The All-Knowing.

STANDAR PENILAIAN ASPEK PSIKOMOTORIK PENDIDIKAN AGAMA ISLAM

Psychomotor assessment is characterized by the presence of physical activity and performance skills by students. Unlike the students 'cognitive assessment, psychomotor assessment is based on the actualization and implementation of students' understanding of the various subject matter that has been obtained in the classroom. In some of the subject matter, psychomotor assessment determines the success of a lesson. This article is a literature research. This article aims to find students' psychomotor assessment format in Islamic Religious Education subject matter. The results of this study conclude that the assessment of the success of learners is not only determined from the cognitive aspects, but also from the affective and psychomotor aspects. Standard psychomotor assessment is made different from the cognitive assessment, that is by way of describing the test scores. Psychomotor assessment should be held by direct observation of learners, can not only practiced by written tests.  

Nonlinear Coherent Structures in Multi-Component Degenerate Plasmas

The propagation characteristics of nonlinear coherent structures involving the solitons, shocks and rogons (rogue waves) are studied in a degenerate dense plasma, which has strong relevance not only to compact astrophysical bodies such as white dwarfs, magnetars, neu tron stars, etc., but also in high density laser-induced plasmas. In superdense plasmas, the quantum corrections due to quantum degeneracy, quantum diffraction, relativistic degener acy and degenerate particle trapping strongly modify the nonlinear properties of the waves and instabilities. In Chapter 3, a multi-dimensional propagation and stability for ion-acoustic (IA) soli tary waves are discussed in a magnetoplasma, containing degenerate relativistic trapped electrons and classical anisotropic ions. By using the Chew Goldberger and Low (CGL) the ory alongwith quantum magnetohydrodynamic (QMHD) equations, a Zakharov-Kuznetsov (ZK) equation is obtained, which admits a solitary solution in the form of potential pulse. The stability parameter Si is analyzed by a k-expansion method, which reveals the stable and unstable solitons in the domains Si < 0 and Si > 0, respectively. Numerically, it is found that trapped electrons and ionic pressure anisotropy support the formation of taller and wider solitons in a degenerate relativistic anisotropic plasma. Chapter 4 presents the linear and nonlinear analyses of magnetosonic (MS) solitary and shock waves in a degen erate relativistic magnetoplasma. For this, we have solved the QMHD equations with the aid of reductive perturbation technique to study a Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) solitons and Korteweg-de Vries-Burger (KdVB) shocks. For linear study, a plane wave solution is used to obtain a linear dispersion relation for MS waves. It is revealed that relativistic electrons reduce the rapid variations in the wave frequency due to intensification of external mag netic field. In nonlinear analysis, the relativistic electrons strongly favor to excite taller and narrower localized solitons and amplify the shock strength. In Chapter 5, one-fluid QMHD model is utilized to investigate the characteristics of low frequency MS envelope solitons in a dense magnetized plasma. By using a multiscale reductive perturbation technique, the nonlinear Schro¨dinger (NLS) equation is derived to account for degenerate relativistic electrons and associated quantum diffraction effects. It is examined that these effects play a vital role to excite modulationally stable excitations, such as the dark and grey solitons in dense magnetoplasma. These solitons only exist under the condition PQ > 0, where P and Q are the dispersion and nonlinearity coefficients, respectively. These results are useful for analyzing the propagation characteristics of MS excitations in dense astrophysical plasmas, where quantum and relativistic effects modify the wave properties and stability. Chapter 6 describes the evolution of weakly nonlinear dust-ion-acoustic (DIA) bright solitons and rogons in a degenerate dusty plasma containing degenerate relativistic electrons, and dynamical degenerate ions with static dust. To examine numerically the modulational instability (MI) and unstable modes on ion-timescales, the effects of relativistic electrons and degenerate ions are examined on the profiles of MI and localized DIA excitations (bright solitons and rogons). It is found that the instability domain becomes widen for varying the relativistic parameter and ionic degeneracy. Finally, in Chapter 7, we have extended our work to nonlinear evolution of extremely low frequency dust-acoustic (DA) solitons and rogons in a nonplanar cylindrical plasma accounting for Thomas-Fermi distributed electrons and ions. The fluid equations are evolved into the cylindrical Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (CKP) and cylindrical nonlinear Schro¨dinger (CNLS) equations for studying the formation of solitary and rogue excitations. It is found that cylindrical plasma leads to radial deviation of solitons and modification of the growth rate associated with modulationally unstable wavepackets. The results are important to understand the nonlinear DIA and DA potential excitations in dense dusty plasmas where dust particulates modify the characteristics scales and affect the properties of stable and unstable wave modes.
