Role of Topical Onion Extract in Scar Management at Donor Site
Abstract: Scarring is commonly caused by an imbalance between collagen synthesis and degradation. One promising approach to mitigate scar formation involves the use of onion extract, known for its ability to inhibit fibroblast activity, which plays a key role in the development of scars. Despite the widespread use of onion extract in various commercial scar treatment products, the exact molecular mechanisms through which it exerts its scar-reducing effects remain unclear.This study …

Development of Biomass-Derived Composites From Commodity Plastics Via Pyrolysis For Enhanced Corrosion Protection of Metals
Abstract: Escalating environmental concerns and the depletion of fossil resources have spurred the need for sustainable and eco-friendly materials. By converting plastic waste into valuable carbonaceous materials via pyrolysis, both plastic pollution and resource scarcity can be addressed. The process involves the thermal decomposition of plastics in an inert atmosphere, producing a mixture of gases, liquids, and solid residues rich in carbon. These carbonaceous residues are then incorporated with biomass materials …

Sustainable Cotton Crop Productivity through Precision Weed Detection: A Deep Learning-Based Approach with UAV Integration
Abstract: Weeds present a major challenge to crop productivity by competing with crops for vital resources, including water, sunlight, and nutrients, often resulting in significant yield reductions. On a global scale, weeds are responsible for approximately 13.2% of annual crop losses, a quantity sufficient to feed nearly one billion people. These invasive plants disrupt agricultural systems and adversely impact crop yields. Given their uneven distribution in fields, ground or aerial robots …
