    ISSN: 0975-8585 Research Journal of Pharmaceutical, Biological and Chemical Sciences Screening of Extracellular Keratinase Producing Fungi from Feather Processing Area in Shenbakkam, Vellore District, Tamilnadu, India. Pamela Sinha and Bhaskara Rao KV*. Environmental Biotechnology Division, School of Bio Sciences and Technology, VIT University, Vellore 632014, Tamil Nadu, India. ABSTRACT The aim of the study was to screen the extracellular keratinase producing fungi from the soil collected from feather processing area in Shenbakkam district of Vellore in Tamil Nadu, India. The isolation was performed by serial dilution and plating method of the collected soil sample. A total of two fungi were isolated from the collected soil sample and were considered for further study. The isolates were identified as Mucor spp. and Aspergillus niger by cultural and microscopic observations. The specific activity carried out by Mucor was 0.8 IU/mg in crude extract, 0.9 IU/mg in Ammonium sulfate precipitate and 0.94 IU/mg in dialysis. Similarly, the specific activity carried out for Aspergillus niger was 0.66 IU/mg in crude extract, 0.72 IU/mg in Ammonium sulfate precipitate and 0.85 IU/mg in dialysis. Keywords: Feathers degradation, Keratin, Keratinase, Enzymatic assay, Partial purification *Corresponding author September - October 2014 RJPBCS 5(5) Page No. 616 ISSN: 0975-8585 INTRODUCTION Keratin is a protein derived from a Greek word means “for horn”.

  • Analysis of Groundwater Quality of Some Selected Stations of Palar Riverbed in Vellore District, Tamilnadu, India
    International Journal of Advanced Scientific and Technical Research Issue 5 volume 2, March-April 2015 Available online on http://www.rspublication.com/ijst/index.html ISSN 2249-9954 Analysis of Groundwater Quality of Some Selected Stations of Palar Riverbed in Vellore district, Tamilnadu, India. M.Saravana Kumar1, F.Liakath Ali Khan 2 1 Assistant Professor, Department of Physics, Muthurangam Government Arts College (Autonomous),Vellore, India. 2 Associate Professor, Department of Physics, Islamiah College (Autonomous), Vaniyambadi, India. ABSTRACT River Palar is one of the most contaminated rivers of India due to various industries. An attempt is made to study the groundwater status in its upper bed. Twenty groundwater samples are collected during the post monsoon season spanning over October 2014. Various physicochemical parameters are determined and compared with ISO and WHO standards. Graphical interpretations of hydrochemical evolution such as Piper, Durov, Stiff, USSL, Wilcox, Permeability Index, Ionic balance error and Gibb are studied. Key words: Palar upper river bed, ground water quality, irrigation and potable suitability graphical interpretations. Corresponding Author: M.Saravana Kumar. 1. INTRODUCTION The availability of quality water in good quantities for industrial, agricultural and domestic uses is a key to the development of any nation. Although the river is considered to be a natural source of water, restriction of water flow due to various reasons makes the ground water as an alternative. Also groundwater is believed to be more potable and safer than surface water due to the protective qualities of the soil cover [1]. With about 7 x1012 m3 of water drawn from the world’s aquifers each year, ground water is by weight the most extracted raw material from the east [2].

The river sets as the major water source recharging the ground water nearby areas. The District is now known for its medical tourism and educational excellence. With more migration into the city, it becomes necessary for the corporation to give a good quality drinking water to the people. Vellore is surrounded by many leather tanneries and small scale dying industries and their effluents are discharged into the Palar River causing impact on the quality of the underground water. Hence, it becomes necessary to study the quality of the groundwater of the city as it greatly influenced by the Palar River. Sampling stations were chosen near residential areas, located at a distance of 2-3 Km from the Palar River. The physico-chemical parameters like pH, temperature, total dissolved solids, electrical conductivity, chloride, hardness and salinity of the samples collected from various sampling stations were studied. The determined physico-chemical parameters were compared with the BIS and ICMR standards for the drinking water to know about the quality of the groundwater.
