"Post-Kasai Portoenterostomy Cholangitis: What Have We Learnt So Far?".

Post-Kasai portoenterostomy (KPE) cholangitis is one of the most common complications that has a negative impact on liver function and native liver survival. Early diagnosis and judicious empiric antimicrobial management are, therefore, important to prevent further liver damage and decompensation. However, there is no consensus regarding the standard definition of post-KPE cholangitis, and established guidelines on evaluation and management are also lacking.

Methionine-Derived Fluorescent Probes Targeting Mitochondria: A Tool for Real-Time Oxidative Stress Monitoring in Live Cells.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play crucial roles in both cell signaling and defense mechanisms. Hypochlorous acid (HOCl), a strong oxidant, aids the immune response by damaging pathogens. In this study, we developed two pyridinium-based fluorophores PSSM and PSSE for selective hypochlorite detection.

Determining chlorophyll-a thresholds for characterizing algal bloom conditions: An ocean colour remote sensing approach.

The Indian coast has been experiencing an increase in algal bloom events over the decades. Owing to the regional and seasonal dynamics of algal biomass (proxy: chlorophyll-a, hereafter chl-a), a multitude of thresholds of chl-a has been defined for different parts of the global seas to determine algal bloom conditions. However, no such clear definition is given for the Indian coastal waters.

Objective: To describe sociodemographic characteristics and to find out morbidity profile of study participants .

Methods: A cross-sectional O bservational descriptive study was conducted in two aluminium processing metallurgy factories in Howrah district of Indian state of West Bengal.

Development of a Phototriggered Diradical Phosphoamination Strategy of Alkenes.

Aminophosphonates serve as extremely important moieties with respect to their activities in biological systems. However, incorporating a Nitrogen and Phosphorus moiety by conventional techniques in ionic mode is usually associated with extensive prefunctionalization of the substrates, employing harsh conditions and reagents that limit the viability of these methods. Introducing both of these components as radicals may be a viable option.
