L-tryptophan carbon dots as a fluorescent probe for malachite green detection.

Development of a rapid and sensitive detection method for hazardous dyes attracts considerable research interest. In this work, L-Tryptophan-based Carbon dots were developed as a fluorescence sensor for the detection of Malachite green (MG). Green fluorescent L-Trp-C-dots were synthesized by a simple pyrolysis technique using L-Trp as the starting precursor.

SAXS/WAXS data of conformationally flexible ribose binding protein.

Modern artificial intelligence-based protein structure prediction methods, such as Alphafold2, can predict structures of folded proteins with reasonable accuracy. However, Alphafold2 provides a static view of a protein, which does not show the conformational variability of the protein, domain movement in a multi-domain protein, or ligand-induced conformational changes it might undergo in solution. Small-angle X-ay scattering (SAXS) and wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS) are solution techniques that can aid in integrative modeling of conformationally flexible proteins, or in validating their predicted ensemble structures.

Etiopathological Factors Associated with Gynecomastia Patients Seeking Surgical Correction in the South Indian Population.

 Although several medical conditions are associated with gynecomastia, around 60% of cases are idiopathic. The role of endocrine testing in idiopathic gynecomastia is controversial. This study was done to determine the etiological and lifestyle factors associated with different grades of gynecomastia.

Recommendations, Practices and Infrastructural Model for the Dental Radiology Set-up in Clinical and Academic Institutions in the COVID-19 Era.

The pandemic of Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has emerged as a global catastrophe that is plaguing mankind. In the past eight months since the world discovered about COVID-19, we learned a lot about server acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS CoV-2) and perhaps there is much more to discover and understand about the virus. With the current understanding of the disease, we assume it will remain in an active state of transmission and progression among the community for a long time.

Biodecolorization and Biodegradation of Azo Dye Reactive Orange-16 by Marine sp.

Background: Azo dyes are xenobiotic compounds that have bioaccumulated in the environment due to escalated industrial development. These are hazardous in nature, possessing carcinogenic and mutagenic effects on human beings.

Objectives: The perspective of the present study was to isolate and to determine azo dye (Reactive Orange-16) degrading potential of marine actinobacteria isolated from sediment samples of Port Blair, India.
