Modern Biomaterials: Biologically Sensitive Hydrogel Materials
Abstract: Modern biomaterials and biological products are interacting at a more clearly defined interface. Hydrogels, a category of highly hydrated biomaterials, are significant. With interstitial voids that are up to 90% water by weight, hydrogels are made of elastic networks. They are created either physically or chemically by self-assembling building blocks that areeither created artificially or organically. Macromolecules in a range of structures, such as cross-linked polymers, entangled fibrillar networks, or …

Infrared Spectroscopic Studies on Multiwalled Carbon Nanotubes Reinforced Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene Composites
Abstract: AbstractFourier Transformed Infrared (FT-IR) Spectroscopic analysis is an effective technique to captures the response of the molecular motions such as stretching, bending and torsional vibrations of materials. In this study, FTIR analysis has been done on two different grades of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) C100 and NC7000. NC7000 grade MWCNT has a higher degree of crystalinity and shows 60% higher absorbance in the wavelength range of 600-3600 cm-1. These two …

Tribological Assessment of Chemically Modified Jatropha Curcas Oil Developed by Addition of Graphite Nanoparticles for Biolubricant Applications
Abstract: As an alternative to petroleum-based lubricants, environmentally friendly bio-based lubricants are gaining popularity in the lubrication industry. A sustainable bio-based lubricant, Jatropha Curcas Oil (JCO) incorporates nanoparticles as additives. Nevertheless, this oil cannot be used directly as a biolubricant due to its low oxidative stability. By redesigning the oil's molecular structure through chemical modification, this restriction can be overcome. Epoxidation and oxirane ringopening were the two steps used in this …

Comparative Evaluation of Pedigree-Based and Genomic BLUP Models for Wheat Grain Yield Prediction
Abstract: Before genome-wide molecular markers became affordable, plant and animal breeding relied on pedigree-based prediction (P-BLUP), using the expected additive relationship matrix (A) derived from recorded ancestry. Genomic selection replaced or augmented this with a marker-derived genomic relationship matrix (G; GBLUP), and single-step methods combining A and G are now standard when only a subset of a breeding population is genotyped. It is less clear whether pedigree information retains any predictive …
