Manganese nodules have been studied under the microscope with the use of reflected light and scanning electron microscope. Around the nucleus accretion of the diagenetically derived material is seen to take place giving rise to columnar or dendritic texture. Away from the nucleus textural variation and abrupt discontinuity in the nodule growth is observed indicating changes in depositional characteristics of ferromanganese oxides as the nodule grew. The intermingling of manganese oxides and silicate minerals, and sometimes iron oxides is common, generating discontinuities within the nodule texture. Scanning electron microscopic observations indicate that the material deposited on the surface is crystalline, non-crystalline, inorganic. organic or detrital in nature giving rise to different surface features such as botryoidal, consolidated compact layering or unconsolidated porous surface appearance.- In-Situ growth of Authigenic Minerals and Micronodules in Some Pelagic Sediments from the Central Pacific

Sediment samples from NS Transect in the Central Pecific Ocean, comprising the Areas C. D. F and G investigated with the help of scanning electron microscopy reveal in-situ formation of several authigenic minerals within pelagic sediments, which affect their surface texture and morphology. Zeolite crystals developed in-situ are noted in the siliceous ooze in the north equatorial Pacific (Area C). Micronodules with well developed initial growth lines, formed authigenically are commonly observed in the siliceous debris-rich calcareous ooze of south equatorial Peciflc (Area F). Quartz and feldspars of detrital origin are also found in the sediment. Dissolution of biogenic debris is noted in them. However. undissolved radiolarian oozes are common particularly in the sediments from south Pacific. Authigenic phillipsite needles are identified in the sediments from Area G which falls within the Marquesas Fracture Zone.- A Study on the Impact of Demonetization on Utilisation of Private Health Care Services in a South Indian City

Background: Private sector plays a key role in India’s healthcare system. The demonetization of Rs.500 and Rs.2000 currency notes on 8th November 2016 had a great effect on the Indian economy as well as day-to day lives. Hence this study was aimed at assessing the impact of demonetization on utilization of private healthcare services in Eluru, Andhra Pradesh.
Material and Method: This was a health-facility based cross-sectional study. Ten health facilities were involved and 200 study subjects from these facilities were interviewed using a pre-designed and validated questionnaire. The respondents’ characteristics, their utilization of health services and overall experience with regard to healthcare was included in the questionnaire.
Results: When asked about the overall experience, 27pc of respondents said they were not affected, 49.5pc said they were affected but felt it tolerable, and 23pc said they were severely affected and suffered. 33.5pc of the respondents have postponed their visits to the health facility due to cash shortage. This was mostly seen in low income groups. Only 35pc of the respondents were willing to use credit/debit cards for cashless transactions.
Conclusion: Majority of respondents felt their healthcare was affected by demonetization but it was tolerable. The low income groups had highest impact. The penetration of cashless payments in private healthcare was very poor.
