Oil spillage is one of the serious problems for sustainable environment. Bacterial nanocellulose (BNC), a hydrophilic and highly porous material holds a promising material for oil-water separation from contaminants. In the present work, a hydrophilic BNC produced from a sorbitol as the carbon source demonstrated the unique porous symmetrical arrangement having an oleophilic property.

Born in 1813, Sims developed several innovative surgical techniques and instruments that revolutionized the treatment of gynecological conditions. Among his most notable contributions is the Sims speculum, which remains a fundamental tool in gynecological examinations today.

This study characterized the biochemical composition and bioactive potential of natural biological macromolecules, such as macroalgal polysaccharides extracted using a green, aqueous extraction process. The in-vitro antioxidant and antiglycemic activity of these polysaccharides were evaluated using model, free radical and antiglycemic compounds.

Physical characterization and analytical techniques were used to explore the morphology, structure, and electrocatalytic characteristics of the CeMgMoO/CNFs nanocomposite. The sensor has a wide linear range (0.

Thus, the aim of the current study was to assess the Cytotoxic effect of three different dental luting cements on human gingival mesenchymal stem cell and evaluation of cytokines and growth factors release.
Settings And Design: Cytotoxicity of glass ionomer cement (GIC), resin modified glass ionomer cement (RMGIC) and resin cement (RC) on the human gingival mesenchymal stem cells (HGMSCs) was evaluated.
