Engineering Polymer-Based Barrier Films for Infection Control in Surgical Environments
Abstract: It is important to keep a sterile surgical area as a measure of infection prevention after an operation. Traditional protective materials tend to not be long-lasting, are not uniformly protective in their behavior, and have just limited biocompatibility. The use of barrier films made of polymer has emerged as a ground breaking solution to the contemporary operating rooms. These movies prevent the entry of microbes, are impervious to moisture, and …

Modulating Immune System of Mosquitoes with A Novel Salicylate Derivative: A Bioinformatics-Based Study
Abstract: The present study aims to compare the interactions of a novel derivative of salicylic acid, 5-(2-nitroethynl) salicylic acid (5-SANA, salicylic acid nitroalkene), and salicylic acid with the critical residues of mosquito’s juvenile hormone binding protein (mJHBP). Given the better water solubility of 5-SANA and salicylic acid, it is believed that they can interact quicker than the natural substrate, juvenile hormone (JH), with the cavity of mJHBP, a circulating protein in …

Causes and Measures to Control Root Rot Fungus in Mulberry Ecosystem
Abstract: Root rot is a severe plant disease caused by various soil-borne fungi, including Phytophthora sp., Pythium sp., Rhizoctonia sp., Fusarium sp., and Armillaria sp. These pathogens attack plant roots, leading to decay, stunted growth, wilting, yellowing leaves, and plant death. Root rot typically develops in waterlogged soils with poor drainage, as these conditions create an environment favorable for fungal growth. Factors such as warm temperatures, compacted soil, improper watering practices, …

Cultural Approaches for Plant Disease Management
Abstract: ABSTRACTCultural practices (CPs) can be harnessed for the management of soil and foliar-borne diseases by creating an environment which is favorable for the host and unfavorable for the pathogen. Most cultural practices used to control plant disease are preventive in nature. There are three categories of cultural practices: (a) CP, which is usually applied for agricultural purposes not related to crop protection, such as fertilization and irrigation, (b) CPs, which …
