Nature’s Pharmacy: Plant-Based Antifungal Agents and Their Therapeutic Potential
Abstract: Antifungal resistance has increased dramatically over the last 10 years, causing serious problems for healthcare because of higher morbidity and death. The urgent need for new treatments is highlighted by the scarcity of effective antifungal medications, their toxicity, and the rise of resistant strains. Since many plants have bioactive secondary metabolites with strong antifungal qualities, including alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenoids, phenolics, and saponins, ethnobotanical sources offer a viable path.

Plant-Derived Antimicrobials as Next-Generation Solutions to Multidrug Resistance
Abstract: The steady rise of multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogens is reshaping how clinicians, researchers, and policymakers think about infection control. When bacteria acquire the ability to survive exposure to three or more antibiotic classes at once—whether through efflux pumps, enzyme-mediated drug destruction, target modifications, or reduced membrane permeability—treatment options narrow dramatically, hospital stays lengthen, and mortality climbs. Conventional pharmaceutical pipelines have struggled to keep pace with this biological arms race, pushing the …

Electrochemical Evaluation of Corrosion Behavior in Industrial Alloys Under Acidic and Marine Conditions
Abstract: Corrosion represents a spontaneous physicochemical transformation in which metals revert to their more stable thermodynamic state, typically oxides, hydroxides, or sulfides, as a result of interaction with environmental elements. Rather than being a simple surface reaction, corrosion is a complex electrochemical phenomenon that significantly influences the durability, reliability, and performance of metallic structures across industrial, marine, and domestic sectors. The consequences extend beyond material degradation, contributing to substantial economic losses, …
