Prospects of Shale gas in India verses Global Scenario and Future of Plasma Pulse Technology
Abstract: Conventional sources are expensive, polluting and limited by its reserves so, it will not be able to meet the demand of a country which is increasing continuously. This concern triggered the scramble to secure long term oil supplies and shown their reliance on the unconventional resources. Shale gas is natural gas trapped in the shale formation with organic rich content of methane. Huge reserves have been found in United States, …

To Develop Self-instructional Module on ‘Umbilical Cord Stem Cell Collection, Preservation and Utilization’ and Evaluate its Effectiveness on Improving the Knowledge of Operational Level Nurses
Abstract: Umbilical cord stem cell based regenerative and cellular medicine has now become a fascination for all. The umbilical cord blood, donated by mothers after the birth of newborn, has become an accepted source of hematopoietic stem cells for bone marrow reconstitution. They play an important role in the treatment of blood and immune system related genetic diseases, cancers, and blood disorders. This study is aimed to assess the knowledge of …

Medically Important Hemiptera: Bed Bugs and Kissing Bugs in Human Health.
Abstract: Bed bugs (family Cimicidae) and kissing bugs (subfamily Triatominae) are hematophagous Hemiptera of major medical importance, yet they differ markedly in their public health impact. Bed bugs have resurged globally over the past three decades, with infestations reported from homes, multi-unit housing, hotels, transportation, and healthcare facilities in both high and low-income settings. They are not established biological vectors of human pathogens, but their bites cause pruritic papules, urticarial, and …

Design and simulation of Solar Powered Automated Dual Rotor Mechanism for Sugarcane Harvesting
Abstract: Sugarcane being the vast cultivated cash crop of India’s agricultural economy has undoubtedly one of the most difficult harvesting processes. The existing mechanisms to harvest sugarcane are costly and are not affordable by rural based farmers. In this project a novel design mechanism is suggested that would serve the purpose of harvesting with least manpower, being cost effective and serving the purpose of cutting, stripping, sorting and loading of the …

Demodex spp. (Acari: Demodicidae) Infestation in Humans: Diagnostic Clues and Therapeutic Approaches to Primary and Secondary Demodicosis.
Abstract: Demodicosis represents an inflammatory dermatosis and adnexal disorder arising from pathologic overgrowth of Demodex mites, primarily Demodex folliculorum and Demodex brevis, which are ubiquitous human ectoparasites residing in pilosebaceous units and eyelid margins. Once regarded as benign commensals, these mites are now recognized as primary drivers or key cofactors in diverse clinical phenotypes, including papulopustular eruptions, pityriasis folliculorum, rosacea-like disorders, blepharitis, meibomian gland dysfunction, and exacerbations of comorbid dermatoses such …
