Microscopic Techniques for Nanomaterials Characterization: A Concise Review.

Nanomaterials have been gaining interest due to their remarkable properties at the nanoscale. The surface area of particles becomes high at the nanoscale because of this virtue, they have been used in a bundle of applications like electronics, biomedical, agriculture, wastewater treatment, semiconductor industry, cosmetics, drug delivery, paints, and so forth. The morphology (size and shape) of nanomaterials plays an important role because each application requires the appropriate morphology for better performance.

Unveiling the influences of prenatal and maternal factors on the journey of an autistic child.

Background: Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a complex lifelong neurodevelopmental disorder with a high and increasing global prevalence. Although the precise causes are unknown, both genetic and environmental factors, including maternal ones during pregnancy, significantly influence its development. Therefore, this study endeavors to explore the potential causes of autism, including maternal and paternal prenatal risk factors, as well as antenatal and natal maternal risk factors, and their associations with the severity of ASD in mothers of children with ASD, from February to May 2024.

Synergy of the flow behaviour and disperse phase of polysaccharide nanoparticles derived from Corchorus olitorius in enhancing oil recovery at an offshore operation.

The escalating global energy demand necessitates enhanced oil recovery methods, particularly offshore. Biological nanotechnology offers sustainable, environment-friendly, and cost-effective alternatives to synthetic chemicals. This study explored the synthesis of polysaccharide-based nanoparticles (PNPs) from Corchorus olitorius leaves using a weak acid-assisted ultrasonic method and their application as nanocomposites for oil recovery.

Double diffusive MHD stagnation point flow of second grade fluid in non-Darcy porous media under radiation effects.

Non-Newtonian fluids are also widely used in a variety of scientific, engineering, and industrial domains, including the petroleum sector and polymer technologies. They are vital in the development of drag-reducing agents, damping and braking systems, food manufacturing, personal protective equipment, and the printing industry. Fluid movement and transport via porous materials draw a lot of attention; they are important in science and technology.
