Fraudulent substitution of meat involves replacing conventional meat with inferior or non-conventional sources to decrease costs. Methods to detect meat falsification include physical, chemical, serological, and molecular examinations. Molecular examinations include PCR-based techniques like sequencing conserved genes and mitochondrial DNA, which can detect even small amounts of adulteration. Non-PCR techniques use species-specific DNA probes for identification through dot-blot hybridization. Molecular methods are highly reliable and sensitive for authenticating meat products.
While shopping meat, consumers ask: "What is the origin of the meat I buy and what were the rearing conditions of the animals? Is the meat hormone- and antibiotics-free? Is it organic and from grass-fed and free-range raised animals?"
How can meat processors and retailers assure their customers that the meat they buy is actually the one declared on the packaging? Genomic Meat Sourcing enables full traceability of meat from the point of purchase to the farm of origin, transparency of the supply chain, and analytical verification of the meat.

Microbiome Identification to Characterization: Pathogen Detection Webinar Ser...QIAGEN
The research community has begun correlating the makeup of individual microbiomes with disorders and diseases such as autism, atherosclerosis, obesity and cancer. To accomplish this, researchers must first identify and characterize these microbial communities. This slidedeck will begin with a general introduction of metagenomics and an overview of experimental strategies. Following this, a comprehensive microbiome assay pipeline will be introduced. We conclude with application-based examples that demonstrate how to identify and characterize microbiome profiles.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2. Fraudulent substitution of Meat
Replacement of conventional meat by similar looking
inferior quality or non-conventional sources is known
as fraudulent substitution of meat or falsification of
meat.
It may include
Mixing meat of different animals
Mixing or replacement of inferior/undesirable
meat with superior/costly meat.
Eg. beef with horse flesh
Mutton with chevon
Rabbit meat with cat flesh etc.
3. Methods of Detection
of Meat Falsification
• 1 Physical Examination
• 2 Chemical Examination
• 3 Serological Examination
• 4 Molecular Examination
4.
5. Physical techniques: on the basis of
Colour
Texture
Odour
Presence of other body parts along with meat
7. Anatomical techniques:
•The typical dental formulations
•Identification is on the basis of vertebrae
•Ribs number present on the carcass.
Histological techniques:
•Muscle fiber length
•Diameter
•Density
•Pattern of the muscle fibers
15. PCR Based Techniques
Forensically informative nucleotide sequencing (FINS),
a technique that combines DNA sequencing and
phylogenetic analysis.
It is used to identify samples based on informative
nucleotide sequences.
PCR amplification and sequencing of conserved gene
is one of the first techniques for meat spp.identification.
Mitochondrial DNA is highly conserved, gene on it
Cytochrome-b and 12S-r RNA used for meat
spp.identification.
16. • Advantages of PCR based Techniques-
• We can be detected the wide variety meat
samples.
• Fresh or processed meat can be easily
detected.
• Much reliable.
• Very small amount of adulteration (up to
1%) can be easily identified.
17. Species identification by hybridization
• Dot-blots hybridization technique has been
applied to the detection of species-specific
DNA fragments in the cooked meats of
chicken, pig, goat, sheep, and beef.
• The probes, biotin-labeled chromosomal DNA
fragments, were hybridized to the sample
DNA on nylon membranes.
Non PCR Based Techniques
18. Advantages-
• Simple and quick
• Easy to perform
• Can be perform everywhere
Disadvantages
• Costly
• Heat sensitive
• Species specific probe is required
