Abstract:
The study investigates the bio-efficacy and phytotoxicity of a phytosterol-based solution containing stigmasterol and campesterol (0.01% w/w SL, branded as Brand) on Thompson Seedless grapevines. The key parameters assessed includes shoot length, leaf area, bunch weight, berry size and physiological loss in weight (PLW) to determine post-harvest shelf life. Results indicated higher concentrations of Brand @ 2 ml/L significantly enhanced growth and yield. Treatment T4 recorded increase in shoot length (115.80 cm), leaf area (165.00 cm2), bunch weight (460.30 g), 50 berry weight (185.60 g) and y

Abstract:
Vegetables sustain huge post-harvest losses owing to their highly perishable nature. Due to complex management challenges, marginal farmers face issues during post-harvest management and cannot get desirable remuneration. The present study assessed the effect of storage conditions on the commonly consumed vegetables, okra (cv. A5) and spinach beet (cv. Pusa Bharati) for prolonging the shelf life and analyzing the cost-benefit ratio. The vegetables were stored at ambient temperature (T0), Zero Energy Cool Chamber (ZECC) (T1), and Cold Chamber (T2), and their physiochemical parameters, overall a

In June 2023, an experiment on Litchi post-harvest was conducted at HRS, Malepatan. The Litchi fruits were uniformly mature and treated with varying concentrations of potassium metabisulfite (50, 75, 100, and 125 ppm) and Bavistin at 100 ppm. They were then stored at ambient conditions (29±4°C and RH 75±5%) for 10 days. The following parameters were recorded: physiological loss in weight (PLW), de

Obesity continues to be a major cause of morbidity and mortality and worldwide prevalence rates continue to rise. The cornerstone for treating obesity remains diet and lifestyle, with the ultimate goal being normalising those parameters that are associated with ill health, for example hyperinsulinaemia and insulin resistance. Because obesity predominantly develops due to a mismatch between energy intake and utilisation, this thesis looked at the effects of dietary interventions upon Resting Energy Expenditure (REE) and substrate oxidation.

The epidemic of obesity is taking over many parts of the world. The etiology of obesity is multifactorial; however, disordered energy balance regulation is a central feature. Obesity is managed by lifestyle changes alone or in combination with pharmacotherapy or bariatric surgery. Diet is an essential part of the primary and secondary prevention of obesity. Various dietary patterns have successfully induced acute weight loss, but no diet stands apart from others. Most agree that an ideal weight loss diet should be nutritionally adequate, safe, effective, affordable, and culturally admissible.

Abstract:
Abstract There has been an increasing interest for biodegradable polymers in recent years because they can be formed as scaffolds and safely removed from the body without the need for any surgical operation, and contribute to the healing process. However, the main problem in polymer-based biodegradable materials is the inability to obtain tunable biodegradation behavior to match healing, which limits the clinical feasibility of these biomaterials. In this study, it is aimed to model biodegradation behavior from short term experimental data in an effort to reduce time required for determination

Some 10% of the antithrombin fromnormal human plasma can be isolated onthe basis of its higher affinity forheparin Sepharose. Not only does this ATIII beta have a higher heparinaffinity, but it is also less negatively charged and has a lower molecular weight than normal AT-III alpha.Neuraminidase and Endo F treatment suggest the loss of a single carbohydrate sidechain from beta AT-III (Peterson and Blackburn.

Abstract:
Developing Mg based implants for temporary applications based on their biodegradation in the physiological environment is a potential research area in the biomedical engineering. Assessing the bio-corrosion in simulated conditions helps to reduce the complexity of research studies associated with in-vivo experiments and can be used to assess the true behavior of the Mg implant in artificial solutions. On the other hand, assessing the corrosion behavior by using 3.5% NaCl solution is a standard ASTM protocol widely used in the industries. Hence, in the present work, degradation of pure Mg due t

Abstract:
Corrosion and cell culture experiments were performed to evaluate magnesium (Mg) as a possible biodegradable implant material. The corrosion current and potential of a Mg disk were measured in different physiological solutions. The corrosion currents in cell culture media were found to be higher than in deionized water, which verifies that corrosion of Mg occurs faster in chloride solution. Weight loss, open-circuit potential, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements were also performed. The Mg specimens were also characterized using an environmental scanning electron microscope

Abstract:
Bile acids are significant physiological factors for digestion, solubilization, absorption, toxic metabolites and xenobiotics. In addition, bile acids are responsible of signal transduction as well as metabolic regulation that activate several receptors such as farnesoid X receptor (FXR) and the membrane G-protein receptor 5 (TGR5). Activation of TGR5 by bile acids is associated with prevention of obesity as well as ameliorating the resistance to insulin via increasing energy expenditure. The objective of this research is to investigate TGR5 gene expression level in different fat depots includ

Surgical smoke is the plume and air contaminants produced by energy devices such as electrocautery and laser scalpels during the surgery. Surgical smoke consists of fine particles containing pathogenic microorganisms and chemical substances from high-temperature carbonized tissues, and poses a health risk to medical personnel during the surgery. The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the importance of surgical smoke control. As a surgical smoke protection on the medical staff side, personal protective equipment such as N-95 high-performance masks are widely used. On the other hand, the surgical

Non-degradable steel and titanium implants used to replace defects of the locomotor system or fabricate vascular stents provide maximum stability but have too many drawbacks. However; the defects in oxide layer and the corrosive nature of physiological environment, the thermodynamic tendencies make the alloys susceptible to release of cationic species in the form of corrosion, which result in triggering various biological factors and compromises the mechanical integrity of the implanted materials. Currently, biodegradable magnesium alloys are considered as promising materials for creation of f

Abstract:
The development of antibiotic resistance in bacteria is one of the major problems in the modern world and one of the greatest threats facing humanity. The search for alternative antimicrobial molecules has led to the study of natural antimicrobial peptides, which serve as the basis for creating synthetic peptidomimetics. These synthetic versions are more resistant to proteolysis, have greater metabolic stability, and exhibit less hematotoxicity. The short cationic peptidomimetic SAMP-1 was synthesized in the laboratory of JSC “SCPB”. Peptidomimetics do not have a specific microbial target; ins

Background. In this proposal we suggest developing a common solution for three seemingly unrelated acute problems: (1) improving sustainability of fast-growing mushroom industry producing worldwide millions of tons of underutilized leftovers; (2) alleviating the epidemic of vitamin D deficiency adversely affecting the public health in both countries and in other regions; (3) reducing spoilage of perishable fruit and vegetable products leading to food wastage.
