    International Journal of Scientific & Engineering Research Volume 9, Issue 4, April-2018 149 ISSN 2229-5518 Estimation of elemental concentrations of Ethiopia Coffee Arabica on different coffee bean Varieties (Subspecies) Using Energy Dispersive X-ray Florescence H. Masresha Feleke1*, Srinivasulu A1, K. Surendra1, B. Aruna1, Jaganmoy Biswas2, M. Sudershan2, A. D. P. Rao1, P. V. Lakshmi Narayana1 1. Dept. of Nuclear Physics, Andhra University, Visakhapatnam -530003, INDIA. 2. UGC-DAE Consortium for Scientific Research, Trace element lab, Salt Lake, Kolkata 700 098, India Abstract: Using Energy Dispersive X-ray Florescence (EDXRF) Elemental analysis, Coffee cherry of Arabica subspecies produced in crop years of 2015/2016 in nine different parts of coffee growing Area in Ethiopa were analyzed and has been found four major elements P, K, Ca, S and eight minor elements Mn, Fe, Cu, Zn, Se, Sr, Rb, Br from Twenty coffee Arabica subspecies. The Samples were washed; dried; Grinding with mortar and finally pelletized. EDXRF analysis were carried the energies of the X-rays emitted by the sample are measured using a Si- semiconductor detector and are processed by a pulse height analyzer. Computer analysis of this data yields an energy spectrum which defines the elemental composition of the sample. The system detection calibration and accuracy check was performed through different countries reported values and analysis of NIST certified reference materials SRM 1515 (Apple leaves). Most of coffee beans sample were found to be a good agreements towards NIST standards and different countries reported values. Meanwhile discussed the elemental concentration and their biological effects on human physiology. Keywords: Coffee Cherry,IJSER Subspecies coffee, Elemental Concentration and EDXRF 1.

  • Genocide Against the Oromo People of Ethiopia?
    Page 1 of 14 Genocide against the Oromo people of Ethiopia? Western influence Dr Trevor Trueman. Oromia Support Group 2 Viewfield, Como Rd Malvern, Worcs, WR14 2TH, UK Tel (44) 1684 573722 Email [email protected] Abstract The Ethiopian government, using its extensive and sophisticated security apparatus, is deliberately and systematically destroying all serious political opposition. The Oromo and other southern peoples believe themselves to have been colonised and oppressed since the incorporation of their territory into Ethiopia at the end of the 19th century. They were initially represented in the transitional administration, established at the downfall of the Derg military dictatorship in 1991, by their nationality-based liberation fronts. Since 1991, Oromo nationalists have been targeted for human rights violations. Oromo peasants, academics and businesspeople who are suspected of supporting the nationalist movement have been killed, disappeared, tortured and detained. The Oromo region is being impoverished and its environment degraded. The Oromo people, who number 25-30 million and constitute at least 40% of the population of Ethiopia, have been further persecuted by famine, fire and forced conscription. According to criteria included in the 1951 UN Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of Genocide, the Ethiopian government is committing genocide against the Oromo and other oppressed southern peoples of Ethiopia. International financial institutions and foreign aid, on which Ethiopia depends, are complicit in this genocide. Biography Dr Trueman is a medical practitioner and has been chair of the Oromia Support Group (OSG), since it was established in 1994. OSG receives information on human rights abuses from informants within Ethiopia and from refugees who have fled to neighbouring countries and the West.
