Objective: To preparation of vermicompost from paper industry waste for recycling the nutrients using earthworm Eudrilus eugeniae kingberg. To analyze the physico chemical parameters of vermicompost, vermiwash and vermicompost extract, enumeration of microorganism from vermicompost, growth parameters and biochemical characteristics of Cluster bean (Cymopsis tetragonoloba) were studied.Methods: The paper industry wastes washed for two times with preparing the predecompost and it kept in 30 days. For preparing the vermicompost, the predecomposition was directly mixed with cowdung in the ratio of 1:2 on dry weight basis in same tank. Seventy number of healthy, clitellate Eudrilus eugeniae kingberg were introduced in the same tank. After 45 days the trial tank compost were sieved and collected for paper industry waste vermicompost.Results: The physico chemical parameters of vermicompost vermiwash and vermicompost extract were studied, the growth parameters and biochemical characteristics were higher in treatments 5 and 6 of Cluster bean were using various concentration of vermicompost, vermiwash and vermicompost extract.Conclusion: Present study was concluded that the Eudrilus eugeniae kingberg is more efficient in bioconversion of paper industry waste vermicompost, vermiwash and vermicompost extract were using various concentration of pot culture study of brinjal was higher growth and high yield and vermicompost act as an excellent biofertilizer of crop plants.

Abstract Nephelometry of serum acute-phase glycoproteins by binding to concanavalin A (con-A) was compared with assays for haptoglobin and alpha 1-acid glycoprotein, and for C-reactive protein. The cutoff points for positive reactions were determined on the basis of results for a random sample (n = 130) from a middle-aged population. The sensitivity of the con-A binding assay compared favorably with that of individual acute-phase glycoproteins in a follow-up cohort of 198 patients with inflammatory joint diseases. Unlike the case in many individual acute-phase glycoprotein assays, the distribution of con-A binding values in healthy subjects is remarkably symmetrical, allowing an easy distinction between abnormal and normal values.

A three year field and investigative study carried out on 33 individual sanitation systems showed that the frequency of septic tank emptying could be at least 5 years, corresponding to a sludge accumulation rate of 0.21/user.day. This value should be included in the calculation of septic tank sizing. Other data showed within a septic tank the methanogenesis is only effective after 2 years of operation. Thereby a septic tank should not be desludged before this period of time. At last, among all the physico-chemical parameters monitored to study the sludge quality, the best indicators of system failures were both the solids (TS and VS) and soluble matter (COD and some VFA). Then, biochemical study of septic tank sludge showed that the main hydrolytic enzymes (cellulase, phosphatase, protease, lipase and urease) are present in septic tank sludges and linked to the insoluble particles. Their solubilization with different solvents (buffers, surfactants…) showed each enzyme was linked in a different way.
