Molecular Docking of Abroma augusta Phytocompounds Against Estrogen Receptor Alpha (Er-Α) for the Treatment of Menstrual Disorders
Abstract: Menstrual disorders, including dysmenorrhea (painful menstruation), amenorrhea (absence of menstruation), and irregular menstrual cycles, significantly impact women’s reproductive health and overall well-being. These conditions often arise from hormonal imbalances, inflammation, and uterine dysfunction, necessitating effective therapeutic interventions. Current treatments, such as hormonal therapies (oral contraceptives, progestin-only pills), NSAIDs, and surgical procedures (endometrial ablation, hysterectomy), provide relief but often target symptoms rather than addressing the underlying causes. Consequently, there is a …

Removal of Thiophene from Model Fuel Using Titanium Catalyst
Abstract: Organosulfur compounds like thiophene (Th) and its alkyl derivatives are the major unwanted species present in crude oil fractions as they lead to the formation of sulfur oxides after combustion of the fuel and these oxides of sulfur cause severe environmental damage. Oxidative desulfurization (ODS) process is considered as one of the best alternative deep desulfurization technologies compared to hydrodesulfurization. In the ODS process, the sulfur compounds are oxidized to …
