Nanostructure-Induced Thermoelectric Enhancement in Bi2Te3 Nanorod Design, Analysis, and Performance Evaluation
Abstract: Thermoelectric materials capable of efficient energy conversion near room temperature are critical for waste heat recovery applications. In this work, solution-grown Bi2Te3 nanorods were synthesized via a trioctylphosphine-assisted thermal decomposition route, and the influence of surfactant-induced nanostructuring on their thermoelectric properties was systematically investigated. Structural analysis using X-ray diffraction and Rietveld refinement confirmed the formation of rhombohedral Bi2Te3 with the emergence of Bi2Te3–BiTe nanocomposites at higher surfactant concentrations. Electron microscopy …

A STUDY OF INDIAN FEMALE SUBSTANCE ABUSERS IN TREATMENT DEMOGRAPHIC AND PSYCHOMETRIC VARIABLES
Abstract: THE ADDICTIVE PROCESSThe drug epidemic is several decades old in India. It has moved from culturally accepted recreational phenomena towards the newer drug use of Heroin, ocaine and other designer drugs. Routes of administration have shifted from oral intake and inhalation to chasing and injecting drug use. While this, in a way, represents man’s hedonistic nature, it is also a symptom of the inherent dysfunction in society and its social …

Polymeric Materials in the Anthropocene: Environmental Accumulation, Human Health Concerns, and Cultural Response
Abstract: Polymers made via conventional techniques are very useful because of their strength, adaptability, and cheap. Plastics are not degradable naturally, which creates lots of environmental issues. As plastic products degrade over time, they decompose into microplastics which enter the environment. These microscopic particles called microplastics have been identified in agricultural soils, freshwater and marine environments, and atmospheric dust, enabling their continuous movement through ecosystems and food webs. Recent research shows …

Antipsoriatic Potential of Polyherbal Paste
Abstract: AbstractPsoriasis is a common dermatitis affecting 1-3% of the population. Several attempts have been made in overcoming psoriasis with prolonged treatment duration. The oral anti-psoriatic agents though quite effective are associated with renal, hepatic and hematological toxicities. The topical treatments have also been described in the classical Unani literature. This work aims in evaluating antipsoriatic potential of Barg-e-Neem, Barg-e-Henna, and Kamela that exhibit anti-inflammatory activity and are used in traditional …

AI-Driven Prediction of Mechanical and Thermal Properties in Polymer-Based Functionally Graded Composites
Abstract: The proposed architecture of the current paper is an artificial intelligence (AI)-driven model of forecasting mechanical and thermal aspects of polymer-based functionally-graded composites (FGCs). Traditional micromechanical and finite element models, which are practical in homogeneous composites, might not be able to account in nonlinear interaction that is caused by compositional gradient. To overcome the challenge, machine learning (ML) models like artificial neural network (ANN), support vectors regression (SVR), and gradient-boosted …

Review of the Antifungal Drug Luconazole for the Treatment of Skin Infections
Abstract: Many U.S. researchers are still working on a broad-spectrum imidazole antifungal called Luliconazole to treat dermatophytic skin and nail infections. The in vitro activity of luliconazole against filamentous fungi, including dermatophytes, is among the highest of any antifungal drug tested to date. The unique molecular characteristics of a 10% solution of Luliconazole make it possible for the drug to quickly reach fungicidal concentrations in the nail unit, allowing it to …
