Environmental Differentiation Strategy of PatagoniaJohannes Mahlich
As producer of outdoor cloth Patagonia considers the environment as their most important stakeholder in their decision-making. Their environmental efforts go far beyond required law and impose extra costs on their customers. As to basic economic logic providing environmental quality beyond required law will put a company in a competitive disadvantage.
Patagonia’s vision is environmental conservation and restoration. They consider their purpose of being in building the best product, cause no unnecessary harm, and use business to inspire and implement solutions to the environmental crisis. Patagonia wants to compete in the market by pursuing an environmental differentiation strategy.
Patagonia’s key tactics in providing value for their stakeholders are summarized under the so-called ‘Product Lifecycle Initiative’. This initiative is a holistic commitment to lengthen the product lifecycle and reduce landfill waste. Those tactics can be categorized into what Patagonia refers to as: Reduce, repair, reuse and recycle. To reduce their customers consumption Patagonia heavily invests into R&D to produce the most durable garments. In addition, they only use organic and recycled garments to reduce the footprint of their products. Patagonia offers a free repair service for all of their products for the whole product life. Furthermore, they offer a second market where consumers can resell their used products. Patagonia encourages their customers to return Patagonia products instead of throwing them away so that they can recycle them correctly.
Patagonia provides a lot of value to the environment. This value needs to be captured via the consumers. Hence, the environmental quality they provide needs to find a willingness to pay among the customers. Some, but few people buy Patagonia products for altruistic reasons because they know that buying Patagonia products will do good to the environment. Patagonia bundles the public good of environmental quality, which is difficult to charge the customer for, with the private good being product quality. They do this by constantly communicating environment friendliness together with quality. Hence, consumer value environmental friendliness for the implicit quality Patagonia offers. Another aspect to buy their products is environmental prestige. Most importantly, however, environmentalism resonates with their customer values as Patagonia’s customers, as buyers of outdoor wear, usually love the nature. The fact that environmentalism is deeply integrated into their business model makes their engagement credible and difficult to imitate by competitors.
As the case of Patagonia shows basic economic logic has its limits when it comes to environmental differentiation strategies. A company can serve the environment as main stakeholder as long as it is able to capture those values perceived by the environment by finding willingness at the consumer to pay for those environmental qualities.

DNA Ligase.pptx biotechnology notes for studentsRakesh Barik
DNA ligase is an enzyme that catalyzes the joining of DNA fragments by forming phosphodiester bonds between the terminal 5'-phosphate of one DNA fragment and the 3'-hydroxyl group of another. It plays a critical role in repairing, replicating, and recombining DNA. There are several types of DNA ligases that differ in their origin and function, including those from bacteria, phages, and humans that participate in various DNA repair and recombination pathways.
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a method to rapidly amplify a specific DNA sample, allowing scientists to study very small amounts of DNA. PCR uses the enzyme DNA polymerase to assemble copies of DNA by denaturing and separating the DNA strands, annealing primers to the strands, and extending the primers to make new copies of DNA. This cycling process can produce millions of copies of DNA. PCR is used in applications like disease diagnosis, forensics, genetic testing, and evolutionary studies.
Essentials of blood group.pptx remedial biologyRakesh Barik
Blood types are classified based on the presence or absence of antigens on red blood cells. The ABO system categorizes blood as type O, A, B, or AB depending on whether the RBCs have A antigens, B antigens, both, or neither. Babies are not born with ABO antibodies but develop them by age 3-4 months due exposure to environmental antigens. Cross-matching tests determine blood compatibility between donors and recipients to prevent hemolytic transfusion reactions. The Rh system further distinguishes blood as Rh+ or Rh- based on the presence of the D antigen. Rh- mothers can develop anti-D antibodies during pregnancy or transfusion which can cause hemolytic disease in subsequent Rh+ babies. This disease is prevented
A cloning vector is a small piece of DNA, such as a plasmid, virus, or artificial chromosome, that can accept foreign DNA and be used to clone that DNA and replicate it in a host cell.

They are produced by binding herbal extracts to phospholipids, which shields the extracts and allows better absorption. Phytosomes have several advantages, including increased bioavailability, protection of active compounds, reduced dosage needs, and improved stability. They are evaluated based on properties like transition temperature, entrapment efficiency, and vesicle size. Common herbal extracts that are made into phytosomes include silymarin, green tea, and grape seed for benefits like liver protection, antioxidant effects, and anti

The main types of solid, liquid, and semi-solid dosage forms are described including tablets, capsules, oral solutions, suspensions, ointments, and others. The document emphasizes that dosage forms are designed to safely and effectively deliver drug molecules to sites of action in the body.
Lignans.pptx Use of microbes in industry. Production of Enzymes- General cons...Rakesh Barik
Lignans are a class of plant polyphenols composed of two linked phenylpropane units. They are found in various plant families and act as antioxidants and defenses against pathogens. The basic lignan structure consists of two phenylpropane units linked by a C-C bond between their central carbons. Major subclasses include furofuran, furan, and dibenzylbutane lignans. Lignans have various biological activities including anticancer, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant effects. They are often present in plants as glycosylated derivatives and some common examples include secoisolariciresinol and podophyllotoxin.
Formulation Of Poly Herbal Ointment all final (2).pptxRakesh Barik
This document summarizes the formulation and evaluation of an antimicrobial polyherbal ointment. Various plants including Piper betle, Tagetes erecta, Carica papaya, Ixora coccinea, and Annona reticulata were collected, dried, and extracted. The extracts were formulated into an ointment base along with cetostearyl alcohol and PEG. The ointment was evaluated for antimicrobial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa using pour plate and disk diffusion methods. Results showed the polyherbal ointment had higher antimicrobial activity than the standard drug in a dose-dependent manner. Phytochemical analysis of plant extracts revealed the presence of compounds like alkaloids, flav
Thin layer chromatography is a technique used to separate mixtures based on differential adsorption of substances on an inert stationary phase immersed in a mobile phase of solvents. It was first introduced in 1938. Separation occurs as substances migrate across the plate at different rates depending on their interaction with the stationary and mobile phases. Detection and evaluation of separated substances on the plate provides qualitative and quantitative analysis of mixtures. Thin layer chromatography has applications in checking purity, identifying compounds, separating ions and amino acids, and monitoring chemical reactions.
The document discusses various extraction methods used to isolate active constituents from plants. It describes extraction as removing active components from a solid or liquid using a solvent. Common extraction methods include maceration, percolation, digestion, decoction, and infusion. Maceration involves placing plant material in a solvent for 3-7 days with agitation. Percolation is continuous downward displacement of solvent through packed plant material. Proper extraction requires considering factors like the plant material, solvent, temperature, and particle size. Modern techniques like supercritical fluid extraction are also used.
This document summarizes the production, estimation, and utilization of three phytochemicals: taxol, vincristine, and vinblastine. Taxol is extracted from the bark of Pacific Yew trees through a multi-step process involving methanol extraction and partitioning with carbon tetrachloride and water. It is estimated using HPTLC and HPLC and used to treat several types of cancer. Vincristine and vinblastine are produced through plant tissue culture of Catharanthus roseus. Their crude extracts are obtained through ethyl acetate extraction and partitioning from culture filtrates. They are estimated using TLC and HPLC and used in chemotherapy for leukemia, as immunosuppressants, and for Hodgkin

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

25. Essential Oil
A volatile oil obtained from a
wide variety of plant, scrub,
and tree species and from
various parts of the plant
anatomy, such as the roots,
rhizomes, wood bark, leaves,
stems, fruit, flowers and seeds.
Usually extracted by hydro or
steam distillation, expression
or effleurage - Hunter 1996
26. Concretes and
Absolutes
Volatiles and waxes
extracted from plant material
with hydrocarbon solvents
(usually benzene and
hexane) through washing
and removal of the volatile
solvent with distillation. A
waxy aromatic substance
remaining is called a
concrete. The concrete is
washed with alcohol to

33. Characteristics of the Flavour &
Fragrance Industry
The flavour and fragrance ingredients trade has its own culture and
business strategies, which can be summarised as follows:
a) Flavour and fragrance ingredients are subject to derived demand,
where demand originates from final flavoured and fragranced end
product demand,
b) Demand for flavour and fragrance ingredients is relatively inelastic in
the short term,
c) Flavour and fragrance ingredients are subject to fluctuating and
cyclic demand,
d) Purchasing and use of flavour and fragrance ingredients is based on
artistic and technical complexity, and
e) The world market is geographically concentrated.

•Change from liquid to gas state
requires energy
•Due to motion of molecules, all
compounds with determinable
boiling points will emit vapours
from their surafaces, if area
closed this will insert pressure
upon the molecule, termed
vapour pressure
•These vapours will saturate the
molecule and take up additional
molecules
•This saturated vapour will
carry other molecules
Amount of heat required to vapourise a unit
mass of liquid, without raising the
temperature of the vapour above that of the
liquid is called LATENT HEAT of
vapourisation
Heat and relative pressures are important in distillation
116. The Gas Laws
Energy can neither be created nor destroyed in any system of constant mass and
that heat is energy
First Law of Themodynamics
Mechanical Equivalent of heat
Energy exerts a force to move a mass against the forces of friction
i.e., 540 kilocalies of latent heat required to vapourise 1 kilogram of
water in one second requires 2268 watts of power
Second Law of Thermodynamics
Heat cannot be transferred from cooler to hotter body
117. The Gas Laws
Fourier’s Law of Heat Conduction
Heat will be conducted from one
plane surface to another at a rate proportional to the area of contact and at the
magnitude of differential temperatures
Boyle’s Law
At constant temperatures, the volume of a given mass of gas is inversely
Proportional to the pressure on the gas
Charles’ Law
Under constant pressure, the volume of a given mass of gas is proportional
To its absolute temperature
118. The Gas Laws
Avogadro’s Law
Equal volumes of ideal gases under equal conditions of temperature and
pressure contain equal numbers of molecules
All the above laws also apply to mixed
vapours
119. Mixed Vapours
If two immiscible liquids are in equilibrium with a common vapur
space, each will contribute equally to any unit volume of that space.
Thus, a mixture of two mutually insoluble liquids will boil when the
temperature attains the point where the sum of the two
characteristic vapour pressures becomes equal to the surrounding
pressure.
This is how distillation vapourises relatively high boiling materials
under normal atmospheric pressure, without approaching the
corresponding boiling temperatures of the essential oil;s
constituents.

121. The Principal of Essential oil Hydro
Distillation
The principal of all hydro distillation for the recovery of essential oils consists
In bringing together two mutually insoluble liquids, water and oil, at a temperature close
To the boiling point of the more volatile of the two, the water, so that the addition
Of a small extra vapour pressure from the oil, will cause the mixture’s total pressure
To equalise to the surrounding pressure.
Dalton’s Law
122. Releasing Oil from Plant Materials
In steam distillation water condenses of plant surfaces and
latent heat surrounds the material and raises volatile
materials to boiling point

Different methods of distillation will be used
according to:
a) Structure of leaves and other plant materials
b) “potential modification” of plant’s chemical
constituents to heat
c) Some resinous materials not volatile and wont
react to distillation

Classes, Characteristics
and Uses of Essential Oils
Adapted from Naf (1989) and
Petrzilka (1991) in Hunter
(1995)
217. A new material must have the following
characteristics to have commercial potential
a) The novelty of the new essential oil
b) The perceived potential uses and applications of the
new essential oil
c) The closeness of any substitutes to the new essential
oil
d) The stability of the new essential oil
e) The cost/price performance ratio of the new essential
oil
f) The toxicity aspects of the new essential oil
g) The general consistency of supply and quality
h) The prevailing market/product trends, and
i) The current level of technology
Kastner (1991) modified by Hunter (1995)
218. Evaluating the Characteristic Strengths and Weaknesses of Essential Oils
The novelty of a new essential oil
The major factor determining the novelty is the perceived uniqueness
of the essential oil’s organoleptic profile. Thus, the degree of novelty
is limited by the closeness of potential substitutes. The concept of novelty
extends to essential oils that are more cost effective sources of natural
aroma chemicals. New natural sources of aroma chemicals would also
fit into this criteria of novelty.
219. The potential uses and applications of a new essential oil
Without perfumers and flavourists perceiving applications potential, a new
essential oil will remain in the realm of curiosity. Time, effort and imagination
on the part of perfumers and flavourists is required to discover useful
applications for new essential oils. It is under this criteria that most new
essential oils will struggle to find acceptance as a new aromatic material.
220. The closeness of any substitutes
It is difficult to find essential oils that cannot be duplicated by reconstitutions.
New essential oils with close substitutes are of little value to the flavour
and fragrance industry, unless they can offer a significant cost or stability
advantage. The only exception is when a new essential oil is a source of
a natural aroma material.
221. The Toxicity
The cost of proving a new material is safe to use in flavours and
fragrances is a major obstacle to the development of new aromatic
materials. The industry has an impeccable reputation for self
regulation and added EU regulations increases the cost of preparing
dossiers on new materials even more. In markets outside the EU,
most international flavour and fragrance houses would not consider
using a new essential oil unless it meets IFRA safety and toxicity
recommendations and is included on the GRAS list.
222. The Cost Price/Performance Ratio of the
New Essential Oil
Important in the application potential of the
new essential oil. New material must offer
a perceptible odour/flavour at low
concentrations
223. The Stability of the New essential Oil
Stability as an essential oil and stability in
end products.
224. The general consistency of quality and supply
Natural material will vary in quality according to geographic origin,
type of soil, level of nutrients in the soil, climate and weather,
rainfall, time of harvest, season, method of extraction, altitude
and the incidence of pests and diseases. Likewise there are
risks with continual supply of natural materials because of
adverse weather conditions, changes in climate, floods and
other natural disasters, wars, political upheavels and the
inexperience of new producers. Launching new consumer
products require large investments on the part of the end
product manufacturer. Flavour and fragrance houses do
not want to be placed in a position of being unable to supply
a manufacturer with a flavour or fragrance compound because
of the unavailability of a raw material.
225. The prevailing market/product trends
Market and product trends slowly evolve. Changes in market trends
are the result of complex forces, including technology, which makes
new trends possible, advertising, and cultural influences upon
consumer tastes and preferences. A particular essential oil may
become more or less important to the flavour and fragrance industry,
depending upon these trends.
226. The current level of technology
New technology advances influence the value of existing aromatic
materials to the flavour and fragrance industry. The development
of new essential oil reconstitutions are aimed at eliminating some
of the potential toxicity and solubility problems of existing essential
oils. Reconstitutions are generally more stable and cheaper than
their more expensive natural counterparts. As better and more cost
effective reconstitutions are developed in the future, the use of some
essential oils will decline. Since the advent of more sophisticated
analytical techniques, like GC-MS, headspace analysis, electronic
noses, aroma chemical and specialty product manufacturers have
been better able to isolate powerful aromatic molecules from essential
oils and synthesise these compounds. The discovery of new aroma
chemicals in essential oils due to increased equipment sensitivity
is more likely to lead to synthesis rather than cultivation.
