  • Study of Weed Flora in Dibrugarh District, Assam, Ne India
    European Journal of Molecular & Clinical Medicine ISSN 2515-8260 Volume 07, Issue 10, 2020 STUDY OF WEED FLORA IN DIBRUGARH DISTRICT, ASSAM, NE INDIA Suman Gogoi Department of botany, DHSK College, Dibrugarh, Assam. Abstract: The present study was undertaken to document the diversity of weed flora in different regions of Dibrugarh district, Assam. Data was collected through observation during the months of spring, summer and winter in the year 2020. In this investigation 62 plant species belonging to 36 families were found to exist as weeds in the fields, by the side of the roads and also in the household gardens. INTRODUCTION Weeds are the unwanted wild plants that have little or no economic and aesthetic value. These species grow uncontrollably in the fields and gardens etc. and cause inconvenience. They can grow almost anywhere and in large numbers. In crop fields they grow and affect the crops by taking up space and nutrition and thereby harming the crops. Dibrugarh is a city in the state of Assam in the North-eastern region of India. The region is a biological hotspot with many rare and endemic plant and animal species in the fertile river valleys surrounded by mountains and hills. The favorable growth conditions also encourage the growth of a large variety of weed species, which find their way through any surface like all types of soil, water bodies, grasslands, roadsides, walls, roofs of houses etc. The present study reports the commonly occurring weed species in different regions of Dibrugarh, Assam. Materials and methods The present study was conducted mainly in the villages of Nauholia (tengakhat), Tiloi nagar (khowang) and Borpather (barbaruah block) in Dibrugarh district.

  • Assessment of Fluoride, Arsenic and Other Heavy Metals in the Ground Water of Tea Gardens Belt of Sonitpur District, Assam, India
    International Journal of ChemTech Research CODEN (USA): IJCRGG ISSN: 0974-4290 Vol.9, No.02 pp 71-79, 2016 Assessment of Fluoride, Arsenic and Other Heavy Metals in the Ground Water of Tea Gardens Belt of Sonitpur District, Assam, India Joydev Dutta Department of Chemistry, Chaiduar College, Gohpur, Sonitpur, Assam, India Abstract: The Sonitpur district is one of the most important tea growing district of Assam. There are big tea estates (under multinational companies) as well as a large number of small tea gardens growing which is like a green revolution. In these gardens heavy amount of artificial agrochemicals are used which contaminates soil as well as drinking water sources. Ground water is an essential and vital component of our life support system. The groundwater resources are being utilized for drinking, irrigation and industrial purposes. There is growing concern on deterioration of groundwater quality due to geogenic and anthropogenic activities. Groundwater, being a fragile must be carefully managed to maintain its purity within standard limits. In tea gardens belt the agro-chemicals affect the quality of groundwater so this investigation has been carried out to assessment the quality of water in this area. Now the Fluoride and Arsenic are major problems in ground water in India and Bangladesh, the heavy metals also effect the chronic health hazards of the people in this area so it is very important to investigation of ground drinking water sources. The ground water of this area is of high iron, manganese, fluoride and arsenic concentration is observed. Finally, stress zones in the study area were delineated using Arc GIS spatial analysis.

  • Assessment of Groundwater Quality with Reference to Fluoride, Arsenic and Iron in Tea Garden Belt of Lakhimpur District, Assam, India
    Available online a t www.pelagiaresearchlibrary.com Pelagia Research Library Advances in Applied Science Research, 2013, 4(2):93-97 ISSN: 0976-8610 CODEN (USA): AASRFC Assessment of groundwater quality with reference to fluoride, arsenic and iron in tea garden belt of Lakhimpur district, Assam, India Sikharani Hazarika 1 and Bhabajit Bhuyan*2 1Department of Chemistry, North Bank College, Ghilamara, Lakhimpur, Assam, India 2Department of Chemistry, North Lakhimpur College, Lakhimpur, Assam, India _____________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT Ground water quality with respect to pH, iron, fluoride and arsenic has been carried out in six selected tea gardens of Lakhimpur district of Assam, India. Forty eight different sampling stations were selected for the study. Statistical analysis of the data is presented to find out the distribution pattern, localisation of data, and other related information. The study revealed that the water sources in the area are contaminated with iron and arsenic. The contamination of groundwater by arsenic and iron are attributed to geogenic origin. Statistical observations imply non uniform distribution of the studied parameters with a long asymmetric tail on the right side of the median. Thus, suitable protective measure for drinking water sources in the area is recommended. Key words: Arsenic, Iron, Skewness, NDA, Kurtosis etc. _____________________________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION Water is a precious and finite resource on Earth. Presently both water quantity and quality are subjects of ongoing concern in many countries. As water sources are limited, it is of supreme importance to keep its quality at the highest level possible. Ground water is an important resource for drinking purpose which contains over 90% of the fresh water resources [1].

The study aimed to assess the effect of consumed arsenic contaminated ground water on the developmental aspects of children in Jorhat, Assam. In this case-control study, 225 primary school children from 20 schools of Jorhat, Assam, India, participated who consumed expected moderate and low levels of arsenic contaminated groundwater getting from tube well both inside and outside the school campus. The amount of arsenic present in the sample was determined through spectrophotometer and arsenic assessment kits. The complex relationship among the latent constructs and their behaviour influenced due to the effect of arsenic in the groundwater level was analyzed through path analysis by using AMOS version 21. It was resulted that there was a significant positive relationship between arsenic and the developmental phenomena of primary school children. Key words : Arsenic contaminated ground water, Cognitive developmental phenomena, Latent constructs, Neuroscience Introduction ied through brain imaging and mental chronometry (Houdé and Borst, 2014).

An outbreak of hepatitis A virus took place in Kopakchapori village under Boginodi block in lakhimpur district during the month of October, 2013. Blood samples were collected from suspected viral hepatitis patients to determine the aetiological agent of hepatitis virus. 57.14% of the collected samples confirmed HAV IgM Elisa positive. No HEV IgM positive cases were detected. Some typhoid positive patients were also detected in the locality, but no co-infection found. The patients were treated locally by some quack with the use of some herbal thread and herbal bindi (Tikka). Water samples collected from drinking water sources showed presence of higher level of bacilli which is not suitable for domestic purpose. Many unprotected tube wells were observed without brim or platform in all the houses of the locality. Observed poor hygiene as there is no latrine and the people having habit of open air defecation. Water sources used by the community were not only contaminated with HAV but also salmonella species.
