ThesisItem Open Access EFFECT OF DYEING ON PHYSICAL PROPERTIES AND COLOUR FASTNESS OF UAS SHEEP BREED WOOL(University of Agricultural Science, Dharwad, 1999) Neelima, G Mahale,; Geeta"The present investigation was carried out during the period 1998-99. The main objectives of the study were, to determine the effectiveness of acid and reactive dyes on UAS sheep breed wool fibre and yam, to assess the physical parameters of UAS sheep breed wool sample before and after dyeing and to find out the colour fastness properties of the dyed sample for different parameters like sunlight, washing, perspiration, crocking and hot pressing. The triple cross bred UAS sheep breed wool was selected from Poultry, Sheep and Goat Department, Main Research Station, University of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad. Wool sample collected was of mixed lot from two different shearing seasons namely Spring clip (March) and Autumn clip (September). The wool sample was cleaned, carded and spun into a yam with the help of Medleri charaka. Later it was scoured and dyed with acid and reactive dyes. The effect of scouring and dyeing on wool was found out by assessing the physical parameters of wool fibre and yam before scouring, after scouring and after dyeing. Colour fastness tests to washing, crocking, perspiration, hot pressing and sunlight were carried out ^and was assessed with the help of gray scale. The results obtained were statistically analysed using completely randomized design and correlation test. Results revealed that scouring had more adverse effect on wool than dyemg. Higher absorption was exhibited by acid dyes. Acid dyes were safer on wool than reactive dyes. They had least effect on the physical parameters of UAS sheep breed wool fibre and yam after dyeing. The colour fastness of acid and reactive dyes to washing was very good, to crocking was good, to perspiration was fair, to hot pressing was excellent and colour fastness to sunlight was found to be good."ThesisItem Open Access Evaluation of functional aattributes of chicken sausages fermented with Lactobacillus plantarum(IVRI, Izatnagar, 2016) Geeta; A.

Out of the selected blocks two villages namely Lohachab and Pillukhera were selected at random. A sample of 100 respondents i.e. 50 from each village was drawn and 15 women respondents from each selected village were selected randomly who were interested to undertake training on fruit plant nursery. Various socio-personal, economic, psychological and communication variables constituted the independent variables and knowledge, attitude, skill and acceptability constituted the dependent variables for the study. Data were collected with the help of pre-tested structured interview schedule. The inferences were drawn on the basis of frequency, percentages, paired ‘t’ test mean score and correlation. The study revealed that most of the respondents were of younger and lower middle age group, illiterate, married and having medium family education status, joint family having members (5-6). Farming was their main occupation. The annual income was between Rs. 40,000 to Rs. 60,000 belonging to middle caste with negligible social participation, marginal sized land holding, owning mixed house and having small herd size. Change proneness, risk orientation and economic motivation were of medium level. Most of the decisions in intra family as well as in entrepreneurial activities were taken by husbands followed by joint decisions. Most of the respondents were having low mass media exposure and medium localite source of information and low cosmopolite sources of information were utilized. The general awareness of most of the respondents regarding fruit plant nursery was of moderate level, however, awareness was high at post-exposure level. Maximum number of the respondents of pooled sample found the fruit plant nursery technology culturally compatible, observable, simplicity/complexity, relatively advantageous and triable. Respondents succeeded in acquiring knowledge at post exposure level in all the components of fruit plant nursery viz. uses and nutritive value, bed/soil requirement, varieties, nursery bed preparation, marketing and economic value. The respondents succeeded in change their attitude at post exposure. The respondents acquired skill of medium level after exposure of training for fruit plant nursery. Impact of fruit plant nursery was found to be moderately high. It is moderately high symbolic adoption for income generation. Overall acceptability of fruit plant nursery was of moderate level. Personal and economic constraints were perceived as the main constraints than social, educational and physical constraints in adoption of nursery raising of fruit plants. Knowledge was significantly correlated with land holding, income and risk orientation while attitude was found significantly and positively correlated with age, education, land holding and risk orientation.
