Determining effective waste human hair hydrolyzing parameters combination and its typical physicochemical characteristics in synthesizing liquid nitrogenous organic fertilizer.

Discarded Human hairs are considered as waste material in most parts of the world and its accumulation causing several environmental problems. However as a potential material resource, human hair has the advantage that it is completely biodegradable, renewable and available in every locality. Thus reutilizing human hair cut discards with a target of extracting a particular major nutrient supply, namely nitrogen, carbon, sulfur and so forth, can create a positive impact on solving soil's infertility problems and less productivity issues of concerned agrarian communities.

Pedigree-based analysis of population structure and genetic diversity in high-milch Vrindavani crossbred cattle of India.

The present study aimed to elucidate the population structure and genetic diversity along with the estimation of genealogical parameters in Vrindavani cattle using pedigree data. The study was based on pedigree data on 12,718 animals, spread across multiple generations during a 52-year period (between 1971 and 2023). The pedigree data was used to estimate different population genealogical parameters including the generation interval; pedigree completeness; rate and level of inbreeding; effective population size; and parameters characterizing the probabilities of gene origin.

Impact of air pollution and heavy metal exposure on sperm quality: A clinical prospective research study.

Exposure to air pollution poses significant risks to human health, including detrimental effects on the reproductive system, affecting both men and women. Our prospective clinical study aimed to assess the impact of prolonged air pollution exposure on sperm quality in male patients attending a fertility clinic. The current study was conducted at Sri Narayani Hospital and Research Centre in Vellore, Tamil Nadu, India, and the study examined sperm samples obtained from individuals with extended exposure to air pollution.

3D printing of bacterial cellulose for potential wound healing applications: Current trends and prospects.

Several advances in skin tissue engineering have been made to restore skin damage, facilitating wound healing. Bacterial cellulose (BC), a naturally occurring polymer, has gained attention as a potential material in wound healing due to its unique physical and biological properties. In recent years, with the advent of 3D bio-printing technology, new avenues have opened for fabricating customized wound dressings and scaffolds for tissue engineering purposes.
