CfP:: 13th International Society of Scientometrics and Informetrics Conference 2011 (ISSI 2011), South Africa
by Puna Das 30 Jul '10

13th International Society of Scientometrics and Informetrics Conference 2011 (ISSI 2011) 4-8 July 2011, Durban, South Africa Scope Although the generic term informetrics has become increasingly popular, scientometrics, bibliometrics and webometrics are all closely related or interlinked sub-disciplines. They belong to the general field of Information Science and are all employed for the quantitative analysis or measurement of all forms of recorded information by studying their distribution, circulation and use pattern largely within or among individuals, disciplines, organisations or countries. The informetric disciplines thus contribute to evidence-based and informed knowledge about scientific research and provide input to research and innovation policy making worldwide. Evidently, a conference of this magnitude always encourages the growth of research and increased national and international collaboration. We are convinced that by organising the conference on African soil, we will be able to popularise research in the areas of informetrics, scientometrics and webometrics within the country and on the continent. The ISSI 2011 Conference will provide an international open forum for scientists, research managers and authorities, information and communication related professionals to debate the current status and advancements of informetric and scientometric theory and applications, with emphasis on the progress of scientometrics and science in developing countries. The conference is organized under the auspices of ISSI – the International Society for Informetrics and Scientometrics. The conference language is English. Call for Papers ISSI 2001 invites researchers worldwide to submit original full research papers, research-in-progress papers or posters within the area of informetrics. Major conference themes are listed below. A Doctoral Forum and dedicated tutorials will be held the day prior to the formal conference start. Topics of interest include, but not limited to: * Theory, Methods and techniques * Citation and co-citation analysis * Indicators * Webometrics * Mapping & visualization * Research policy * Productivity & publications * Journals, databases and electronic publications * Collaboration * Country level studies * Patent analysis Important Dates: * Full Papers, Research-in-Progress and Workshop/Tutorial paper submission deadline 15-01-2011 * Paper/Workshop/Tutorial notification of acceptance/rejection 15-02-2011 * Poster submission deadline 18-02-2011 * Doctoral Forum submission deadline 01-03-2011 * Poster notification of acceptance/rejection 14-03-2011 * Paper in camera ready form sent to system (at least one author must register) 17-03-2011 * Doctoral Forum result announcement 01-04-2011 Download Call for Papers: http://www.issi2011.uzulu.ac.za/13th%20ISSI%202011%20announcement.pdf Further Details: http://www.issi2011.uzulu.ac.za/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dr. Anup Kumar Das New Delhi, India http://anupkumardas.blogspot.com/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Regards, J.Kasinathan Librarian #12, Poonamallee Road, Ekkattuthangal, Chennai 600 032 Email : jkasi1963(a)yahoo.co.in ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Journal Name : Journal of pharmaceutical science Title : Simutaneous determination of nitrate and nitrite in toothpaste by HPLC. Author : Lulla, H & Chen SS Vol/ Issue/ Year: V73/ 7/ Pages 1004 - 1006/ 1984 Publisher : Wiley Interscience Keywords Nitrate - simultaneous determination with nitrite, toothpastes, HPLC • Nitrite - simultaneous determination with nitrate, toothpastes, HPLC • Dentifrices - simultaneous determination of nitrate and nitrite, HPLC Abstract A stability-indicating analytical method is described for the simultaneous determination of nitrate, and if present, its reductive degradation product, nitrite, in toothpastes. Nitrate and nitrite were extracted from the toothpaste using distilled water and separated from other water-soluble excipients by two RP-8 columns (250 mm × 4 mm i.d.) using a mobile phase containing 0.2% (w/v) sodium acetate and 2.5% (v/v) glacial acetic acid in distilled water. A UV detector set at 313 nm was used for quantitation. The method was applied to commercial toothpastes containing 5% potassium nitrate and yielded an average recovery of 100.1% with a relative standard deviation of 1.43%. Average recovery of nitrate and nitrite from spiked samples were 100.6% and 96.4%, respectively. The minimum detectable concentration for nitrite was 50 g/g of toothpaste. . -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

by Premaraj Mishra 28 Jul '10

28 Jul '10

Dear Friends, I would like to know the functional drawbacks of E-Granthalaya, Integrated Library Management Software (ILMS) designed by NIC. Drawbacks like you have used this ILMS and found certain problems, whether it is fit for academic library like engineering colleges and so on. Version 3 of this ILMS is already uploaded and multilingual support facilities has been updated. Minimum things like barcode generation and User ID cards facilities is already available like any other commercial software.
