The research work was done to synthesize a series of novel chitosan/Curcumin based water dispersible polyurethanes with potential applications as antibacterial textile finishes. The synthesis were carried out in three steps, in first step the NCO end capped PU-prepolymer was formed through the reaction between Polyethylene glycol (PEG) (Mn=600), Dimethylolpropionic acid (DMPA) and Isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI)/ 4, 4’-dicyclohexyl methane (H12MDI). In second step the neutralization step was carried out by using Triethylamine (TEA) which results the formation of neutralized NCO terminated PUprepolymer, after that the last step chain extention was performed by the addition of chitosan/curcumin and followed the formation of dispersion by adding calculated amount of water. The proposed structure of chitosan/curcumin based WDPUs samples was confirmed by using FTIR technique. Using pad-dry-cure procedures, the synthesized chitosan/curcumin WDPUs samples were applied onto the different qualities of plain weave poly-cotton white, printed and dyed textile swatches. The textile properties of the treated and untreated textile swatches were measured, as color fastness, pilling resistance, tear and tensile strength. The antimicrobial activities of the plain weave poly-cotton printed and dyed textile swatches after application of chitosan/curcumin based WDPUs samples were also evaluated. The results showed that the chitosan/curcumin incorporation into PU backbone has markedly effect on the assets of treated textiles and also enhance the antibacterial activity of WDPUs. These synthesized chitosan/curcumin based WDPUs are ecofriendly antimicrobial finishes (using natural bioactive agents such as chitosan and curcumin) with potential applications on polyester/cotton textiles.

مولوی سید ممتاز علی
اخبارات کی زبانی ناظرین تک یہ خبر پہنچی ہوگی کہ ہماری زبان کے پرانے ادیب و مصنف اور مسلمان لڑکیوں کی تعلیم و تربیت کے مشہور مبلغ مولوی سید ممتاز علی صاحب مہتمم تہذیب نسواں لاہور نے وفات پائی۔ انَّاﷲ، مرحوم کا وطن، دیوبند تھا، عربی کی تعلیم پائی تھی، اور ساتھ ہی جدید تعلیم سے بھی بہرور تھے، اس زمانہ میں سرسید مرحوم کی تحریک کا شباب تھا، اس شمع کے گرد جو پروانے جمع ہوگئے تھے، ان میں ایک یہ بھی تھے، مسلمانوں میں وہ پہلے شخص تھے جس نے تعلیم نسواں کی تبلیغ کی، اور اس تبلیغ میں ان کو کامیابی حاصل ہوئی تھی، وفات کے وقت ان کا سن ستر (۷۰) کے قریب ہوگا ابھی اسی سال کے اخیر جنوری میں لاہور میں ملاقات ہوئی تھی، اسی وقت وہ زار و نزار، اور حبس بول کی شکایت میں مبتلا تھے، آخر وہ اس تکلیف سے جانبر نہ ہوسکے اور چل بسے، اﷲ تعالیٰ ان پر رحمت فرمائے، نہایت خوش خلق متواضع اور مرنج و مرنجان بزرگ تھے۔
(سید سلیمان ندوی،اگست ۱۹۳۵ء)

 

METODE PARTISIPATIF, CERAMAH, DAN DISKUSI PADA AL QURAN SURAT AS-SHAFFAT AYAT 102

This research is motivated by a phenomenon of poor communication between parents and children. In the world of education, there was a lack of approaches and methods used by educators in providing subject matter so that what was delivered by the educator did not achieve the expected goals. The problem in this research is how the participatory methods, lectures and discussions contained in the As-Shaffat letter verse 102. The purpose is to describe the educational methods contained in the As-Shaffat letter verse 102 in the form of participatory methods, lecture methods and discussion methods. This research is a Library Research. The method of interpretation used in this study is the method of interpretation of maudhu 'or thematic methods which interpret verses of the Qur'an based on specific themes. The method used in the explanation of the verse is the method of tahlili or analysis that explains the verses of the Qur'an by examining its aspects and revealing its whole purpose. The results of study and analysis, as well as data processing from various sources, obtained the first result that the educational method contained in the As-Shaffat verse 102 is a participatory method used by educators, which involves all elements in the educational process especially students, with active participation from participants students will facilitate educators in delivering the material to be given. Both lecture methods, in conveying information, especially learning materials can be done with the lecture method. An educator prioritizes good attitudes so that the material can be accepted by students. The third method of discussion is to involve students in giving their opinions. With the discussion in learning, the lessons will become warmer and will train students to be more courageous in opinion.

Phytoremediation Potential of Aquatic Plants Grown in Village Ponds of Rawalpindi Pakistan

Water quality impairment by heavy metals and microbial organisms due to discharge of untreated industrial and/ or municipal effluent to surface water bodies has been a concern worldwide. Phytoremediation is relatively inexpensive and eco-friendly technique, and considered a viable alternative for wastewater purification. Present research work was designed to study the water quality of municipal effluent ponds and to evaluate the phytoremediation potential of native aquatic plants grown in studied ponds. For this purpose, a survey was conducted during the year 2012 and municipal effluent ponds were explored at six rural settings of Rawalpindi/ Islamabad. Water samples were collected from two different points at each pond i.e. inlet and center for analysis of physicochemical and microbiological parameters. Variation in water quality parameters were studied on the basis of size (large/ small), depth (shallow/ deep), sampling point (inlet/ center) and type of plants (emergent/ free floating) growing in ponds. Results showed that water quality of samples collected from center was relatively better than those at the inlet points as reduction was observed in physicochemical and microbiological parameters. The native aquatic plants were collected from each pond and identified as: (i) Typha latifolia L. (ii) Lemna minor L. and, (iii) Lemna gibba L. The Typha latifolia (Typhaceae) plants were growing in three ponds, whereas Lemna species (Lemnaceae) were growing in other three ponds. Typha latifolia, Lemna minor, and Lemna gibba were evaluated for phytoremediation of five heavy metals and three types of coliform bacteria by growing into untreated effluents viz., sewage mixed industrial effluent (collected from I-9 Industrial area, Islamabad) and municipal effluent (collected from Chak Shahzad Islamabad) for a period of 31 days in greenhouse experiments. Both water and plant samples were periodically (3rd, 10th, 17th, 24th, 31stday after transplanting) monitored xiv for heavy metals (Cd, Cu, Pb, Ni, Cr) while, water samples were also analyzed for indicator bacteria (total coliform, fecal coliform and E. coli). The untreated effluent samples were characterized for 24 water quality parameters i.e. physical, chemical and microbiological and compared with permissible limits. Results showed that municipal effluent was relatively highly contaminated with nutrients and organic load, whereas the concentration of heavy metals was relatively higher in sewage mixed industrial effluent. The number of coliform bacteria was same in both untreated effluents. Results of phytoremediation of wastewater effluent showed that there was a large reduction in heavy metals in both effluent during the experiments and a significant difference was observed between initial and final metals concentrations. The percentage metal decrease was relatively higher in sewage mixed industrial effluent and overall decrease for different heavy metals was higher than 55 %. Among plant tissues metal concentration, Pb accumulation was significantly higher than Cd, Cu and Ni. Maximum bio-concentration factors observed for Pb and Cu indicated the experimental plants as moderate accumulators of heavy metals. The reduction in coliform bacteria was higher in sewage mixed industrial effluent than those in municipal effluent and fecal coliform (and E.coli) were not detected in sewage mixed industrial effluent at experiments termination. The results concluded that native aquatic plants can be used for phytoremediation of contaminated water and has great potential for future applications.
