The present study was an attempt to analyze organizational service climate on job satisfaction and emotional commitment to organization in their relationships with the customers. This study is an applied and correlational study. The target population included all the employees (150) working in Narges Hospital, Iran, out of which 108 were selected randomly using the Krejcie and Morgan table. Content and face validity of the questionnaire was confirmed content analysis of the constructs. Reliability of the measurement was also estimated by Cronbach Alpha and found to be 0.86. The data were collected using a questionnaire and analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics and regression analysis using SPSS software. The results showed that job characteristics and fair treatment with the employees had a higher relationship with overall job satisfaction compared to customers’ satisfaction. On the other hand, customers’ satisfaction did not have a larger effect on emotional commitment to the organization under study compared to overall job satisfaction. In addition, emotional commitment affected the attraction of potential customers but did not influence attraction of employees

Short vase life of orchid flowers due to the phytohormone ethylene is undesirable. To date, improvement of orchid plants with long vase life flowers by field breeding is considered time-consuming and laborious. Conversely, biotechnology to produce orchids resistant to ethylene by introducing an antisense ACC oxidase gene into the orchids is an alternative to overcome the disadvantages of the conventional method. The present study aimed at optimizing the condition for the delivery of an antisense ACC oxidase gene into Dendrobium aphyllum (Roxb.) Fischer mediated by Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain EHA105 (pCAMBIA1304). High transformation efficiency was achieved by cocultivating D. aphyllum protocorms in the bacterial suspension supplemented with 100 µM acetosyringone for 20 min. Cefotaxime and hygromycin concentrations of 300 and 25 mg/l, respectively, were considered effective for eliminating A. tumefaciens and selecting putative transformants. Hygromycin resistant protocorms showed the highest GUS activity of 79.26%. DNA integration was confirmed by PCR analysis and it was found that the sizes of amplified fragments were 180, 118 and 320 bp for the 35S, NOS and antisense ACC oxidase, respectively.

The species Aerides odorata Lour., a wild orchid native to the north and northeastern regions of Thailand, is likely to be to be depopulated due to the destruction and alteration of its natural environments, including over-collection of wild orchids. Even though germplasm conservation through traditional method is vital for maintenance of biodiversity and avoidance of genetic erosion, such method is time-consuming and difficult handle. Conversely, cryopreservation is an alternative to the traditional method to overcome the problem. The present study, therefore, aimed at establishing the protocol for the cryopreservation of A. odorata seeds by encapsulation-dehydration. The seeds were encapsulated in calcium-alginate before preculture in ND liquid medium supplemented with 0.5 M sucrose and maintained on a reciprocal shaker (100 rpm) at 25±2ºC under a long photoperiod (16 h light:8 h dark) with a photon dose of 40 µmol m-2 s-1 for 18 h.. The encapsulated seeds were then dehydrated by incubation in the sterile air flow of a laminar air flow cabinet for 0-6 h, and immediately plunged into liquid nitrogen (LN). After recovery from LN and rapid thawing in a waterbath (40 ºC), the germination rate and genetic alterations measured by flow cytometry were investigated. The highest germination rate (82%) was obtained from encapsulated seeds that were previously precultured in 0.5 M sucrose liquid medium for 18 h and sufficiently dehydrated for 6 h prior to storing in LN. Measured by flow cytometry, cryopreserved seeds did not show any evidence of genetic alterations.

In general, lot of issue arises in hardware based on FPGA implementation. Today Elliptic curve cryptography had become trendier and many researchers concentrate on Elliptic Curve based on Power Analysis attacks, which exploits leakage information from the hardware devices. This paper concentrates on elliptic curve scalar doubling algorithm, which proposes certain rules and countermeasures for improving the performance and resistance against power analysis attack. The algorithms and their parameters were modified and assigned by the File Register Architecture, which is used to allot the registers in proper manner. The designing section uses Booth Multiplier and Carry Save Adder for increasing the efficiency and complexity of the algorithm. The implementation part uses Xilinx tool which belongs to Spartan III family in FPGA platform. The results were compared with the existing Elliptic Curve-Scalar Doubling algorithms, which was described by Yong Ki Lee and Lopez.

Salinity is one of the abiotic stress factors that negatively influence agricultural productivity and thereby affects world economy. It is a complex multigenic trait governed concurrently by many metabolic pathways. Detoxification of excess Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), produced due to salt stress, by antioxidants is one of the strategies followed in living organisms to combat such stress. Manganese-Super Oxide Dismutase (Mn-SOD) is one such antioxidant metallo-enzymes, which plays a major role to scavenge ROS in diverse species. However, it is found that only few important residues of Mn-SOD enzyme neutralize excess ROS. Hence, the aim of this study is to identify the key residues of Mn-SOD that are actively involved in salt stress tolerance mechanism and that too conserved across species, through in silico proteomic analysis. In this study, protein sequences of Mn-SOD enzyme from diverse organisms associated with salt stress tolerance were collected from public domain and the conservancy of residues was studied both at sequence and structural level. The residues thus found to be conserved were reported as the key residues playing a significant role in salt stress tolerance mechanism in terms of contribution to the cofactor and substrate specificity, active site gateway formation and protein stability.

A solar still is viable option when demand of potable water does not exceed more than 3 liters. Enhancement in distillate output from the solar still is a main goal of many researchers in all over the world. In this research work, effect of using the copper and aluminium plates on distillate output is investigated experimentally as well as theoretically at different water depths under same climate conditions. In solar stills, first solar still augmented with copper plate, second with aluminium and third without any plate called passive solar still. An energy balance equations applied to solar still for calculation of theoretical distillate output of solar still with different plates. Three experimental still of 1 m2 each are constructed by locally available materials. In this research work, it is found that the results of experimental and theoretical results are in good agreement. It is also found that, using copper plate in solar still increases distillate output of 20 % (at water depth of 3 cm) and 32 % (at water depth of 6 cm) compared with passive solar still and using aluminium plate in solar still increases distillate output of 10% (at water depth of 3 cm) and 20 % (at water depth of 6 cm)

The theme of value creation, being the source of research, has increased interest in the field of management science, and hence became the new creed of managers. We have proposed the ethical behavior of managers influence the policy of value creation. In particular, we test the four cardinal virtues of the manager, who are the justice, prudence, strength and moderation, influence the development and growth of the company.
This paper attempts to make an inventory of ethical problems in a country sends development and clarify their role in the development of firms. We used a sample of Tunisian companies for a period to 2003-2011
