Garlic and Onion Extracts Enhance the Yield of T2 Bacteriophage in E. coli
Abstract: It has been demonstrated that garlic and some of its components have anti-bacterial and/or anti-viral activity for viruses of humans in vitro. Increasing concentrations of garlic extract have no effect on the replication of E. coli cultured in nutrient broth. Increasing concentrations of garlic extract inhibit the replication of T4 Bacteriophage in E. coli but, surprisingly, E. coli cells treated with garlic extract produced a yield of T2 Bacteriophage up …

Diet Management of Cancer Patients Who Undergo Chemotherapy—An Experimental Study
Abstract: Background: Chemotherapy is the one major treatment module for cancer patients, but it has so many side effects, including nausea, vomiting, fatigue, and pain. These side effects reduce the adherence towards chemotherapy and reduce the interest to have foods. This, in turn, affects the normal tissue metabolism and disturbs the functions of cell and tissue regeneration. Food is very important for patients who receive chemotherapy. The cyclic administration of chemotherapy …

Nanoparticle-Based Early Diagnostic Tools for Tuberculosis and Malaria in Rural India
Abstract: Malaria and Tuberculosis continue to be two major public health challenges in rural India. The interplay between an inefficient health care system, late diagnosis, and under-identification of cases contributes to the high morbidity and mortality associated with TB and Malaria. Conventional methods, such as sputum microscopy for TB, microscopy and rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) for malaria, have a higher benchmark of sensitivity that requires a certain amount of time, skilled …
