Biopolymer-Based Flocculation for Microplastic Removal: Fenugreek and Okra as Sustainable Alternatives to Synthetic Flocculants
Abstract: Microplastic pollution has emerged as a persistent global environmental concern due to its widespread presence in aquatic ecosystems and potential implications for food chains and human health. Conventional removal approaches, particularly the use of synthetic flocculants such as polyacrylamide (PAM), have demonstrated high removal efficiencies in water treatment applications. However, their use is often associated with environmental concerns including toxicity, non-biodegradable residues, and energy-intensive production processes. In this context, the …

Jaundice: Etiology, Clinical Manifestations, Diagnosis, Management, Nursing Care, and Prevention
Abstract: Jaundice is a significant clinical condition marked by a yellow discoloration of the skin, sclera, and mucous membranes resulting from increased bilirubin levels in the bloodstream. Rather than being a disease itself, jaundice represents an underlying disorder involving the liver, biliary system, or hematological processes. Hyperbilirubinemia develops when there is excessive bilirubin production, impaired hepatic uptake, defective conjugation, or obstruction in bile excretion. Jaundice remains a major global health concern …

Exploring Abrasive Flow Finishing of 3D Printed Mesoscale Passage
Abstract: 3-D printed parts and components have gained wide applicability which continues to increase day by day. However, due to the very nature of 3-D printing process, i.e. layer additions, outer surfaces are subject to poor finishing. Finishing 3-D printed parts is thus a necessity if they are to be used for prototyping or functional purpose. But, finishing remains a challenge, especially if the part contains passages that lie within and …
