A Study on the Application of Chitosan-based Composite in the Remediation of Water Pollution
Abstract: Several uses for membrane separation have been developed including microfiltration, ultrafiltration, and nanofiltration processes in the fields of biomedicine, food, and water purification. Removing agro-industrial waste is a major problem in developing nations. One polysaccharide polymer is cellulose. In this review, the history, structure, global production, and extraction of cellulose from various trees are examined. Chitosan, a biopolymer that resembles cellulose chemically, is a naturally occurring fiber that is obtained …

Purification of industrial wastewater using a photoelectroflotation process powered by solar energy
Abstract: The main problem of all existing electroflotation methods of wastewater treatment is salinization of the near-anode space during electroflotation, which leads to the formation of salt deposits on the anode, which strongly cover the anode surface, which can lead to a complete stop of the electroflotation process. The anode, used by electroflotation devices has a dense grid of small cells, which, on the one hand, increases the current density, but, …

Synthesis of Brassinosteroid with Signaling and Response to Abiotic Stress: Review
Abstract: Brassinosteroids (BRs) are a group of plant steroid hormones with multiple roles in plant growth, development, and responses to stresses and signaling functions to promote cell expansion and cell division and plays a role in etiolation and reproduction. The entire synthetic pathway of sterol biosynthesis is brassinolide (BL) from the general campesterol synthesis pathway in Arabidopsis. Campesterol converts to BL in two different ways campesterol dependent or campesterol independent pathway. …

Sodium benzoate induced reproductive and metabolic changes in Anabas testudineus (Bloch, 1792)
Abstract: AbstractSodium benzoate is an effective antimicrobial agent used as a food preservative, but recently gained attention as the chemical toxicant. The present study investigated sodium benzoate induced male reproductive toxicity and metabolic changes at100 mg/ L concentration in the freshwater fish, Anabas testudineus. Sodium benzoate did not alter the weight of fish but increased the secretion of mucous as the primary defensive mechanism. Reduction in the absolute and relative weights …

A study on Antibiotic Resistance: An Analysis of Molecular Mechanisms and Therapeutic Implications
Abstract: Antibiotic resistance (AR) represents one of the most critical existential threats to global public health, rapidly eroding the efficacy of established antimicrobial therapies and portending a return to the pre-antibiotic era. This analysis explores the intricate molecular landscape defining this crisis, focusing specifically on the primary mechanisms of action (MoA) utilized by major antibiotic classes—including cell wall inhibitors, protein synthesis inhibitors, and nucleic acid synthesis inhibitors—and the corresponding, diverse mechanisms …

Chemotherapy: Side Effect and Management
Abstract: Cytotoxic drugs are therapeutic agents intended for but not constrained to, the treatment of cancer. These drugs are kenned to be highly toxic to cells, mainly through their action on cell reproduction. Cytotoxic drugs are increasingly being utilized in a variety of health care settings, laboratories and veterinary clinics for the treatment of cancer and other medical conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis are autoimmune disorders. Cytotoxic drugs are …

Targeting PTPN22 in Arthritis: Molecular Docking and Pharmacokinetic Evaluation of Artemisia vestita Compounds
Abstract: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a long-term autoimmune condition characterized by inflammation of the synovial membrane, commonly resulting in swelling, pain, stiffness, and overall fatigue. Protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 22 (PTPN22) has been identified as a risk factor linked to various autoimmune diseases, including RA. In the PTPN22 gene, two missense Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are associated with autoimmune conditions. The R620W (C1858T, rs247660) variant in exon 14 has been …

Role of Functional Regenerative Trilaminar Scaffold Dressing in Wound Bed Preparation
Abstract: Advancements in wound healing have incorporated tissue regeneration therapy as a crucial tool for managing both acute and chronic wounds. Bio constructs designed to facilitate wound regeneration utilize natural, artificial, or hybrid materials, collectively referred to as regeneration scaffolds. The components of regeneration scaffolds play a crucial role in enhancing the skin's natural self-renewal abilities and accelerating the healing process. These scaffolds are designed to provide essential growth factors and …

A Numerical Model to Study Effect of Potential-Dependent Influx on Calcium Diffusion in Neuron Cells
Abstract: Electrical activity within the brain rapidly encodes information about the world but for these fleeting perceptions to have a lasting impact, long-term changes in the structure and function of neurons must follow. At the synapse, neurotransmitter reception initiates a number of biochemical signaling cascades in the postsynaptic cells, one of the most important of which is the elevation of intracellular calcium. Early events induced by the rise of calcium in …

Epidermolysis Bullosa and Its Role in Cervical Cancer: An Overview
Abstract: Epidermolysis Bullosa is a group of uncommon genetic disorders that primarily affect the skin and mucous membranes. It is marked by severe skin fragility and the formation of blisters even after minor trauma. Traditionally, the focus of Epidermolysis Bullosa research has been on its dermatological manifestations, which include recurrent blistering, scarring, and the potential for infections due to the compromised skin barrier. However, recent advancements in Epidermolysis Bullosa research have …
