    SCHEME FOR AFFILIATION OF PRIVATE HOSPITALITY INSTITUTES OFFERING PROGRAMS RELATED TO HOSPITALITY EDUCATION & TRAINING NATIONAL COUNCIL FOR HOTEL MANAGEMENT & CATERING TECHNOLOGY (NCHMCT) A-34, Sector 62, NOIDA – 201 309 (UP) SCHEME FOR AFFILIATION OF HOSPITALITY PRIVATE INSTITUTES OFFERING PROGRAMS RELATED TO HOSPITALITY EDUCATION AND TRAINING NEED FOR PRIVATE SECTOR PARTICIPATION: The training capacity available in the Government Institutes of Hotel Management/Food Craft Institutes is being augmented continually to maximize the delivery of trained personnel to the industry. The demand of trained manpower leaves enough scope for delivery of quality trained manpower by the institutes set up in private sector. It has therefore become necessary that existing private institutions imparting hospitality education and training assume a significant role in meeting the expanding demand for quality trained personnel. In this context, participation of educational institutes in the private sector through scheme of affiliation with NCHMCT has been launched to bridge gap between demand and supply of quality professionals to the expanding Industry. Existing hospitality programs ranging from Certificate level to Degree level offered by National Council for Hotel Management has enabled candidates from private institutes qualify for a proficiency that is in line with the quality of students turned out by the best of affiliated Institutes in the government sector. The scheme of affiliation launched in year 2006 culminated in affiliation of 4 private Institutes. Subsequently, Council invited applications from private Institutes and affiliated 10 more Institutes of Hotel Management in private sector. As on date, total 14 private Institutes are affiliated to this Council. Original scheme of affiliation has been revised in present form which brings out clarity in requirements and assessment thereof by experts Committee in a transparent manner.

The fact is the markings that are stamped, painted or impressed on the underside of most antique items can help you tell a great deal about a piece other than just who made it. The name of the pottery manufacturer and an approximate date of manufacture can be discovered if the piece of pottery has a backstamp or the silver item has a hallmark. A makers mark that they have learned over many years spent researching and studying antique marks. Dating an antique is a little like detective work. The company name itself only gives the appraiser a rough timeline of when the company was known to operate. Famous companies such as Wedgwood , Meissen , Doulton , Minton , Derby and Worcester all use a variety of numerical or symbolic china marks that can, with just a little knowledge and analysis, give you the exact date of production. However, few collectors, buyers or sellers have the ability to memorise all china marka, signatures or number codes used on antiques. Even the experts that deal in antiques for a living, still need good sources of information to refer too. People who viewed this item also viewed.

    “Organochlorine pesticide residues in Mothers’ milk; evaluation of possible Drug interaction in humans” A THESIS PREPARED BY ORDIAS CHIKUNI SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR A DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY DEGREE 2005 Department of Clinical Pharmacology College of Health Sciences UNIVERSITY OF ZIMBABWE DEDICATION To my dearest wife Perpetua and children, Tinoashira, Sakhile and Rujeko; special thanks for their enduring patience. In memory of my father, and plenty of gratitude to my loving mother for moral and spiritual support. ii ABSTRACT The aim of the study was to investigate exposure levels of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) in mother’s milk and in selected staple foods. The study also aimed to evaluated effects of 1,1,1- trochloro-2-bis-(4-chlorophenyl)ethane (DDT) on paracetamol half-life in highly exposed and least exposed breast-feeding mothers as a way of investigating possible drug interaction. This was an experimental study where milk and food samples from Esigodini, Harare, Kadoma Kariba Nyanga and Mudzi were collected and analysed for OCPs levels using GC-ECD. Evaluation of induction of the hepatic cytochrome P450 enzymes by DDT was carried out by pre-treatment of female rats with a single intraperitoneal dose of DDT (0.3 mg/g) body weight. Cytochrome P450 enzyme was quantified by potassium phosphate buffering the microsomal fraction followed by spectral determination of the reduction of cytochrome P450. Blood samples from selected mothers in areas showing results of higher exposure levels to DDT and selected mothers with low exposure levels to DDT (controls) were evaluated for paracetamol drug interaction. Concentration levels of paracetamol in rats were measured using UV-Visible spectrophotometry.
