ear Sandorians,                                                           

                                                       With the festive days passed by in October, India witnessed  

                                                  demonetization on 8th November, 2016. The anxiety and anguish

                                             will continue for some time. However, the country necessitates a      

                                         corruption free civilization. Achieving a cashless society has enormous

                                     benefits. Usage of plastic money and e­money is a move of disruptive      

                                 innovation , we talked on in the previous Issue. Reduction of transaction      

                           cost, lessenin transactional misconducts and eradication of crimes such as theft

                      and coercion etc. can also be attained.

Coming to the article ‘Team Work’, I would like to accentuate that my dream of building up

this organization is "People". Respect to individual, Development of each employee and

Building up an empowered organization are the values Sandor nurture. Each Sandorian is

instrumental shaping the structure of the Sandor. The force and the dynamism in the Team

is indomitable. We witness the change.

During 19th­21st November 2016, Animal Biogenic Private Limited had participated in a

grand exhibition, GPDFA's 3rd Dairy­Agri Expo 2016 at Anand, Gujarat.

On 24th November, 2016 the Sandor Orhto Private Limited has signed off Exclusive

Marketing Rights with DJO Global for DonJoy and Aircast products in India and SAARC

Countries.

On 30th November, 2016 the first Haemodialysis Centre by Sandor in partnership with

DGHS, Bangladesh was inaugurated at Nikdu, Bangladesh.

Sandor is working on a more aggressive strategic plan for expansion of scale and product

base.

Sandor is propelling and soaring to greater heights. And, unquestionably, the team is the

driving force.

Thanks,

Warm personal regards,

Rajeev Sindhi

The November comes and the November Goes,Unwrapping winter chills and beginning of winter woes.With night coming early, and dawn coming late,To get up from bed, Is really what we hate!!!!

But this November, stepping in slow,With winter dews, nation received a hot blow!!!One decision! Demonetization!!! Our beloved old Rs. 500 and Rs.1000 lost their glow.

Standing in long queues of ATM and Banks,Listening to debates of great think-tanks.All forgot the winter chills,Thoughts pondered, How to pay the bills!!!

We shunned black & we embraced white,To get the pink, there are still lot of fights!!!Some gave applause, some call it social cause,Appreciation or frustration we need to tolerate boss!!!

November comes and the November Goes,Unwrapping winter chills,Compelling the nationto walk uphill !!!!

My model for business is The Beatles. They were four guys who kept each other’s kind of negative tendencies in check.

They balanced each other and the total was greater than the sum of the parts. That’s how I see business: great things in

business are never done by one person. They’re done by a team of people. — Steve Jobs

Group Cohesiveness is a feeling of devotion, trustworthiness and loyalty; that motivates thegroup and enhances the likeliness to stay in the group. Special individual preferences andcompetitions are all barriers in the process of team trust building.

1. Rule “One Team, One Goal” works.2. Identify Task and Term. It may be routine and non­Routine.3. Identify members of with similar aptitude, interest and zeal; and leaders with MaturityLevel.4. Clarify Roles and define what is expected from them.5. Encourage participation of team members.6. Resolve Conflict, build up Harmony and develop Unity.7. Create High Degree of Communication among group members and with other groups.8. Pay attention to social esteems and emotional needs of members and observe withcarefulness.9. Create an ambience filled with Independence, Values and Ethics.10. Create and influence to the amount of belongingness among members.11. Focus on problem solving, accomplishing assigned tasks and concentrate High TaskPerformance.12. On accomplishment of the task, show the members the result of their strongcohesiveness. Greet them and award them.13. Record and publish the Achievement of Teamwork.

Group Cohesiveness

Build up a Team, Right Team

Team players feel cheerful on execution and down for ensuing loss of association, since in thecourse of time they develop the sense of interdependence, belonging, friendship and affection.

Last but not the least, it is pertinent to mention that the Operational Efficiency is proportional toteam competence, its functioning and delivery. 

Team Spirit and Cohesiveness, this is where the Kauravas lacked entirely. Group Goals overIndividual Goals.  Kauravas fought individual fights with carrying their motive not aligned to group motive. Whether itwas Bheesma, Drona, Shalva or Karna, they had their individual vengeance against Pandavas andit was not in synchronized with Group objective. Whereas, all Pandavas were completely unitedfrom decision making to commitment and operation.

The triumph follows discipline.

HIVTHE SCOURGE OF THE MILLENNIUM

AN ARTICLE BY DR.SHIVAJI

The whole medical fraternity was shocked and surprisedTo see that they were immune- compromised The root cause analysis pointing to HIV Virus About which at that point we had little to discuss

They had unusual critically low CD4 Cell CountThere being no medical cause for it to account Had their immune system distortedSubsequently their life span prematurely aborted

The scenario set a pitch of stigma and discriminationsWhich has soon became tainted hall mark of HIV infectionsEntrusting on HIV victims disrespects and hateThat unfortunately prevails till date

HIV/AIDS is a disease for differentto which many of us show indifferencePointing fingers to the victims as if uncleanBut tomorrow it could be your kith or kin.

Day by day thousands suffer,For them we have pragmatically little to offerMedical and social issues are many,Clear cut solutions at hand are hardly any

Everyone should be careful about this monsterAlways follow these three ABC Rules for prevention in futureAvoiding AIDS as easy as…A -Abstinence B- Be faithful C- Condomise"Make your life fearless and cheerful in this infectious world

n early eighties California discovered the HIV ShootsOf this Scourge, that Africa supposedly supported the rootsManifesting as rare infections in young apparently healthy male individualsWith Sexual orientation that labeled them as homosexuals

The virus stretched far and wide along the global dimensionsSurpassing all political, Geographic or cultural limitationsWith no therapeutic weapon in handNot even a valid advice to lend

AbstractThe risk that a cow develops mastitis largely depends on pathogen load at the teat end and it is

the cow's ability to prevent bacterial infection in the mammary gland. Conversely, nutrition can

have significant effect on the immune system, thereby affecting infection rate and severity of

mastitis. Early lactation is also the time when most cows experience short­term malnutrition or

intake of nutrients therefore, do not meet nutrient requirements. The immune system, as any

physiological system, does not function optimally during periods of malnutrition. In addition, the

immune system has high requirements for specific nutrients and when these nutrients are not

provided in adequate amounts, immune function may suffer. This mini review explains the role

of nutrition on mastitis during the periparturient (period immediately before and after calving)

period.

IntroductionMastitis in dairy animals is considered as one

of the most important economic diseases

resulting into huge economic loss to the

country. Globally, the losses due to mastitis,

accounts for about 38 per cent of the total

direct costs of the common production

diseases (Kossaibati and Esslemont, 1997). In

India, the economic losses due to mastitis

have increased about 115 folds in last five

decades (Dua, 2001). In fact, the most

expensive disease on dairy farms is mastitis.

As per 2006 estimates referred in ICAR's

National Agricultural Innovation Project, the

estimated annual loss due to mastitis alone is

nearly Rs16,702 millions. Mastitis is

multietiological and defined as inflammation of

mammary glands and is characterized by

physical, chemical and usually acteriological

changes in milk and pathological changes in

glandular tissues (Radostits, et al., 2000). It is

also a matter of concern as presence

of antibiotic residues in the milk is undesirable

due to its public health concern. Traditionally,the mastitis control programmes are focusedat use of chemical disinfectants, antiseptic orherbal teat dips (Maitiet al., 2004) andantibiotic therapy. Various studies revealedthat both clinical and sub­clinical mastitisaffect the reproductive efficiency of animalsat several levels. Mastitis delays thepostpartum ovarian function and alters someof the key reproductive functions likeovulation, fertilization, implantation, andpregnancy maintenance, calving interval,number of services per conception etc.(Hansen et al., 2004) However, antibioticswere introduced long back for its control butthe problem in dairy animals remained.Antibiotic treatment minimizes the losses buteventually leads to drug resistance.Therefore, attention is being paid to findalternative approaches. These approachesare confined to enhance udder defensemechanism and antibacterial system in milkby using immune regulatory micronutrients.

1. Trisodium CitrateIt has been widely demonstrated that citrate isthe “harbinger of lactogenesis” (Peaker andLinzel, 1975). They reported that the amountsof citrate (130–160 mg per 100 ml) occur in themilk of cows and goats and the level of citratein udder of cows, goats and women shoots up46 times around parturition. These findingselucidate that citrate is apparently playing avital role in milk synthesis and therefore, mightbe associated with mastitis in dairy animals. Ithas been reported extensively that mastiticmilk is significantly low in citrate (Oshima andFuse 1981). Investigations have also revealedthat citrate levels are very low in milk ofquarters affected with mastitis (33.71mg/100ml)(www.agranco.com/pdf/Mast­Ex_Catatlog.pdf). A certain minimumconcentration of citrate is essential for thenormal synthesis of milk in the alveoli in theudder. Therefore, inconsistency in the citratecontent would result in faulty synthesis of milkin a particular quarter(s) of the udder. It hasbeen observed that the affected quarters hadvery low concentration of citrate as comparedwith healthy quarters of the same animal(Dhillon et al., 1989). The deficiency of citratein a particular quarter may be due tonutritional, metabolic or some other intrinsicunknown factors which need furtherinvestigation. Citrate, indeed, is the mainconstituent of the buffer system responsible forthe maintenance of pH (~6.50) in the udderand regulates the homeostasis between Caand H ions which maintains fluidity of milk(Faulkner and Peaker, 1982; Shennan andPeaker 2000). Hence, deficiency of citrate inudder would lead to the “clumping” of Ca ionswhich manifest as flakes in the mastitic milk.These flakes of Ca ions act like lime andprobably injure the parenchymatous tissue inthe udder alveoli due to reduced moderatoreffect of citrate. The recent studies (Rai et al.,2013) support the role of citrate in feedsupplement. Sarfaraz et al. (2009) revealedthat oral administration of tri­sodium citrate

and levamisole HCl are viable alternative toantibiotic therapy for sub­clinical mastitis inbuffaloes. Hence, the citrate ought to besupplemented in animal feed to prevent mastitisin dairy animals.2. Ascorbic acid (Vitamin C)Neutrophil function and the severity andincidence of mastitis in dairy cows are relatedto the intake of many antioxidant nutrients.Because vitamin C is the major water­solubleantioxidant in mammals, Weiss and Hogan,(2007), examined the effect of dietary vitamin Con neutrophil function and responses to intra­mammary infusion of lipopolysaccahride (LPS)in peri­parturient dairy cows. Vitamin Cconcentration in neutrophils isolated from milkwere about 3 times greater than concentrationsin blood neutrophils. The LPS infusion did notalter concentrations of vitamin C in plasma ormilk, suggesting that the LPS model did notproduce the same effects as a bacterialinfection of the mammary gland with respect toantioxidant effects. Supplemental vitamin C hadno effect on neutrophil phagocytosis orbacterial kill. Dietary vitamin C reduced the milksomatic cell count. Chaiyotwittayakun et al.(2002) suggested that ascorbic acid providedsome potential benefit for recovery from acutemammary inflammation in dairy cattle.3. Curcuma longaThe use of turmeric for coloring and flavoringfood, for cosmetic purposes and for medicinalproperties dates back to the ancient Vedicculture of India, used in almost all Indiancurries. Turmeric has almost no calories andzero cholesterol. It is rich in dietary fiber, iron,potassium, magnesium and vitamin B6. Oneactive ingredient in it is curcumin that mayreduce swelling and pain and inflammation.Turmeric is highly therapeutic and is used invarious drugs and pharmaceutics mainlybecause of its immunity boosting and anti­oxidant properties. It is a natural antiseptic andhas antibacterial, antifungal, anti­inflammatory,antiallergic and wound healing properties.Hence feeding turmeric will prevent the

incidence of mastitis in dairy animals.4. Calcium & PhosphorusMilk and blood serum from clinically mastitisinfected, subclinically mastitis infected andhealthy Friesian cows (15 samples from each of3 groups) were evaluated for macrominerals(sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium andphosphorus). The milk from cows infected withsubclinical mastitis revealed a significantdecrease in potassium (P < 0.001) and asignificant increase in sodium and phosphoruscontent (P < 0.01). Similarly, the milk from cowswith the clinical form of the disease showed asignificant increase in sodium (P < 0.001) and asignificant decrease in potassium, magnesium(P< 0.001) and calcium (P < 0.01). Comparisonof healthy cow's milk with that from cows withsubclinical mastitis revealed a highly significantincrease in sodium (P < 0.001). Comparison ofhealthy cow's milk with that of clinically mastiticmilk showed a highly significant decrease inlevels of calcium, magnesium (P < 0.001) andpotassium (P < 0.01). However, sodiumincreased highly significantly (P < 0.001).Comparison of macro­minerals in milk fromcows with subclinical and clinical mastitisrevealed a significant decrease in potassiumcontents (P < 0.05) compared with that ofhealthy cows. Potassium levels were found todecrease significantly (P < 0.05) in subclinicallyinfected cow's blood serum. However, calciumand phosphorus showed a significant decrease(P < 0.01) in blood serum samples from theclinically infected cows (El Zubeir et al., 2005).Mastitis incidence and increased SCC levelreduced calcium and phosphorus contents, ratioof Ca/P and titratable acidity (TA) of raw milkwere found, while pH increased significantly byincreasing SCC level (Raji et al., 2012). Calciumis required for muscle contractions and the teat

sphincter of cows that increases the risk ofbacterial invasion (Curtis et al., 1985). It mightbe concluded that regular availability of calciumand phosphorus to a lactating cow, may preventthe occurrence of mastitis. 5. Zinc and copperCows and heifers fed diets with 20 ppmsupplemental copper had less severe mastitisand fewer natural infections when challengedmammary gland with E. coli (Harmon andTorre,1994; Scaletti et al., 2003). Tomlinson etal. (2002) summarized results of 12 experimentsand reported an overall significant reduction(196,000 vs. 294,000) in Somatic Cell Count(SCC) when Zinc was supplemented (between200 and 380 mg of Zn/d). Role of zinc includestissue or cell growth, cell replication, boneformation, skin integrity, cell­mediated immunity,and generalized host defense (Gropper et al.2005). The mammary gland is an organ that isderived from the skin, thus making zincnecessary to maintain the integrity of the keratinthat lines the streak canal. Zinc has a significanteffect on gene expression and cellular growth.Supplementing zinc resulted in a 33% reductionin somatic cell count (Suan and Robert, 2009).Zinc deficiency has been associated withreduced formation of both T and B lymphocytesand phagocytes (Sherman, 1992). T and B cellsare the major cellular components of theadaptive immune response. Therefore,supplementing copper and zinc is beneficial inpreventing and curing mastitis. ConclusionNutrition is directly related to ability to prevent abacterial infection in the mammary gland in thedairy cows/buffaloes. Nutrient deficient amounthas been shown to be capable of alteringimmune system. The best recommendation atpresent is to provide a feeding program for dairycows which should be balanced for essentialnutrients which can meet the nutritional
