Milk sterilized by the use of UHT temperature tends to be unstable during storage. This instability is a critical aspect of quality of UHT milk which limits its use. Age gelation and sedimentation of UHT milk are serious problem in milk processing plants in Pakistan, which lead to decreased profit margin and hinder the commercial exploitation of UHT milk. The research work was carried out to evaluate the effect of milk quality (commercial and improved quality milk), UHT processing temperature (135 o C, 138 o C, 141 o C and 144 o C), storage temperature (25 o C, 40 o C) on physicochemical characteristics, protein and protein fractions, proteolysis, age gelation (viscosity), sedimentation and sensory evaluation during storage of 90 days. Raw milk quality of was assessed through sensory parameters, adulteration and microbiological examination showed that commercial milk was found positive for some adulterants and possessed higher number of TPC and SCC than IQ milk. The pH of commercial and IQ milk samples were in the range 6.61-6.63. Commercial milk possessed lower fat, protein, solids not fat, lactose and total solids than the IQ milk, except ash content which was found higher in commercial milk. The commercial milk also contained lower concentration of calcium and phosphorus as compared to the IQ milk. IQ milk possessed more content of casein than commercial milk which was found significantly higher in non casein nitrogen and non protein nitrogen, respectively. The viscosity was higher in case of commercial milk than the IQ milk. It was found from the physicochemical analysis that the IQ milk had significantly the highest pH value and lower acidity than the commercial milk after UHT processing. However the acidity was higher and pH was lower in the UHT milk when stored at 40 o C than at 25 o C (6.59). Significantly the lowest (6.55) pH at144 o C and highest (0.132%) acidity at 135 o C was observed. Lactose content of different UHT processed milk indicated the commercial milk contained significantly the lowest content of lactose (3.79%) as compared to IQ milk (4.04%). Lower lactose content was observed in milk stored at 40 o C the lactose content decline in UHT milk, processed at a temperature 135 o C was lower than milk processed at 144 o C temperature. Commercial milk contained significantly lower (2.64%) casein content and high NCN and NPN content 0.63% and 0.25%, respectively than of IQ milk which contained higher casein and lower NCN and NPN content. The influence of storage temperature indicated highest casein content and the lowest NCN and NPN in milk stored at 25 o C and the lowest casein and significantly the highest NCN and NPN at 40 o C temperature. The processing of milk at 144 o C contained higher casein content and the lowest NCN and NPN content at 144 o C temperature. Less proteolysis was observed in IQ milk processed at 144 o C and stored at25 o C temperature which may not be directly related to age gelation but may directly or indirectly related to sedimentation. The viscosity of milk processed at 144 o C showed the lowest viscosity the highest viscosity was found at 135 o C temperature. The occurrence of sedimentation was significantly higher in commercial milk while lower sedimentation (4.15g) was exhibited by the IQ milk. Higher storage temperature (40 o C) yielded higher sedimentation and increasing trend was also found with the increasing UHT temperature. Sensory parameters based on scores assigned by the panelists are higher in IQ milk than commercial milk. The study further concluded that milk subjected to 141 o C UHT temperature was ranked at top based on the sensory scores.

Accounting Guidelines Implementation: A Study on Economic Development of Islamic Boarding Schools

The development of Islamic boarding schools is one of the targets for sharia economic development which is based on the understanding of the halal value chain where the development of Islamic economics and finance summarizes various initiative programs including the development of Islamic boarding schools. The purpose of this study is to describe how the implementation of the Islamic Boarding School Accounting Guidelines at Al Huda Islamic Boarding School which is more focused on the readiness of HR at Al Huda Islamic Boarding School in applying the Islamic Boarding School Accounting Guidelines. The Al Huda Islamic boarding school was chosen as the research locus because the Al Huda Islamic Boarding School was appointed by Bank Indonesia Gorontalo Representative Office as a pilot project for the Pesantren (Islamic Boarding School) which applies the Islamic Boarding School Accounting Guidelines. The stages of the research method began with observations and results of interviews with informants from the board of the Al-Huda Islamic Boarding School. The results showed that there was a desire to apply these guidelines in the Al-Huda Islamic boarding school. Even though treasurers, secretaries and operators do not have a basic knowledge of the Economics of Accounting, the existing human resources are ready to apply the Pesantren accounting guidelines, of course, adjusting to the needs of the Al-Huda Islamic boarding school. The author sees that there is no urgency in implementing Islamic boarding school accounting guidelines at the Al-Huda Islamic boarding school because the reporting entity is the foundation that houses the Al-Huda Islamic boarding school, the Al Huda Islamic Education and Da'wah Foundation, Gorontalo. The foundation is fully responsible for the donors or the community.

Analysis of the Potential of Non-Pathogen Derived Resistance Against Begomoviruses

Cotton leaf curl disease (CLCuD) is the major threat to cotton crop and is transmitted by whitefly (Bemisia tabaci). Whitefly is also a major pest of cotton crop and significantly damages the crop worldwide. Whitefly bears endosymbionts which live inside gut of insect and endosymbionts produces some protein which may be essential for different metabolic processes. There are some primary endosymbionts which are present in almost all whitefly biotypes but the presence of secondary endosymbionts is dependent on its biotype, ecological distribution and some other unknown factors. These endosymbionts produce a protein GroEL which helps in transmission of cotton leaf curl disease which is a begomoviral disease. There may be co-localization of two or more than two secondary endosymbionts in the same whitefly. The presence of endosymbionts such as Hamiltonella, Rickettsia, Wolbachia, Fritschea, Cardinium and Arsenophonus were tested in whiteflies collected from cotton growing areas of Pakistan and several combinations of endosymbionts were found. Similarly, GroEL gene was cloned and its relationship with already known GroEL was established. Two approaches were used here: these are the control of whitefly through RNAi technology and the expression of GroEL in transgenic plants to generate broad-spectrum resistance. Two RNAi target genes trehalase and trehalose transporter were selected on the basis of their involvement in important physiological pathways in whiteflies. The osmotic pressure of the phloem sap is about five times higher as compared to that in the insect gut. The difference in osmotic pressure forces the fluid to move from phloem into the insect’s gut where it also poses major challenge for the phloem feeders to normalize the pressure by degrading the sucrose content of the phloem sap. Trehalase is present in all tissues and is involved in trehalose transporter metabolism that is it hydrolyzes trehalose transporter into two glucose molecules. In insect trehalase is also found to play important role in functions like flight metabolism, chitin synthesis during molting and cold tolerance. Trehalose transporter is a non-reducing sugar also known as α- D-glucopyranosyl α – D glucopyranoside and is a disaccharide of glucose. Phenotypic manifestation of gene knockdown by dsRNA induced RNAi suggested lowered expression of target genes. Real time qPCR was xv performed in order to estimate transcript levels and the results from expression profiling of whiteflies treated with dsRNA to induce RNAi against the specific targets showed significant success in knocking down expression of the target genes. Bioassays conducted for the target genes showed high mortality rates for dsRNA treated whiteflies, suggesting that the gene knockdown could be an effective way for controlling insect pests like whiteflies. Since multiple begomoviruses and associated satellites are involved in CLCuD, approaches based on the concept of broad-spectrum resistance are essential for effective disease control. GroEL and G5 are two proteins from whitefly endosymbiont and M13 bacteriophage origin respectively. GroEL encapsulates the virus particle when it enters the whitefly and protects the virus from immune system of whitefly as well as prevents viral expression in it. This characteristic of GroEL can be exploited to get resistance against viruses if expressed in plants. G5 is a single stranded DNA binding protein, expression of which in transgenic plants will stop viral expression on its binding with ssDNA. Use of tissue specific promoter is more efficient than constitutive promoters. NSP of BBTV is phloem specific promoter using which, GroEL can be expressed only in phloem tissues, the site for viral entry. To attain broad spectrum resistance, pyramiding of both genes was done. Transgenics of Nicotiana benthamiana for GroEL under constitutive promoter, GroEL under phloem specific promoter, gene pyramid of GroEL and G5 both with their constitutive promoters and gene pyramid of GroEL and G5 in which GroEL under phloem specific and G5 under constitutive promoter were made. In comparison to non-transgenic plants, transgenic plants with double cassette of GroEL under NSP promoter and G5 under 35S promoter showed promising results when challenged against Cotton leaf curl Multan virus (CLCuMuV) along with Cotton leaf curl Multan betasatellite (CLCuMB), Cotton leaf curl Khokhran virus (CLCuKoV) along with Cotton leaf curl Multan betasatellite (CLCuMB) and Pedilenthus leaf curl virus (PedLCV) along with Tobacco leaf curl betasatellite (TbLCB). The data presented here shows that RNAi technology can be effectively used for controlling whiteflies while the expression of GroEL under phloem-specific promoter could be an effective way achieve broad-spectrum resistance.
