Antifungal Activity of Difenoconazole-Loaded Microcapsules against .

Difenoconazole-loaded (CS-DIF) microcapsules were synthesized by encapsulating difenoconazole into biocompatible chitosan. The physical and chemical properties indicated that the encapsulation and chemical loading rates were 85.58% and 61.

Electrophoretically deposited Asphaltum punjabianum (Shilajit) coatings on polyvinylalcohol/carboxymethylcellulose hydrogels.

The present study aims to develop Asphaltum punjabianum (namely Shilajit) coated Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) hydrogels and examine their structural, morphological, degradation, and biological properties. Hydrogels were produced at two different concentrations: 70:30 PVA/CMC and 90:10 PVA/CMC. Following that, Shilajit was applied to the synthesized hydrogels using electrophoretic deposition for a duration of 3 min at 30 V.

Objective: To determine the effectiveness of Kinesio taping along with routine physical therapy on improving gross motor function in sitting and standing among spastic diplegic Cerebral Palsy children.

Design: Randomized controlled trial.

Settings: University Teaching Hospital University of Lahore, Lahore.

Synthesis of CaCO supported nano zero-valent iron-nickel nanocomposite (nZVI-Ni@CaCO) and its application for trichloroethylene removal in persulfate activated system.

Nano zero-valent (nZVI) based composite have been widely utilized in environmental remediation. However, the rapid agglomeration and quick deactivation of nZVI limited its application on large scale. In this work, CaCO supported nZVI-Ni catalyst, namely nZVI-Ni@CaCO was prepared and used for the efficient removal of trichloroethylene (TCE) in PS oxidation process.

Immunoinformatics design of B and T-cell epitope-based SARS-CoV-2 peptide vaccination.

SARS-COV-2 is a virulent respiratory virus, first identified in China (Wuhan) at the end of 2019. Scientists and researchers are trying to find any possible solution to this deadly viral disease. Different drug source agents have been identified, including western medicine, natural products, and traditional Chinese medicine.

Enhancement in reactivity via sulfidation of FeNi@BC for efficient removal of trichloroethylene: Insight mechanism and the role of reactive oxygen species.

A novel catalyst of sulfidated iron-nickel supported on biochar (S-FeNi@BC) was synthesized to activate persulfate (PS) for the removal of trichloroethylene (TCE). A number of techniques including XRD, SEM, TEM, FTIR, BET and EDS were employed to characterize S-FeNi@BC. The influence of sulfur to iron ratio (S/F) on TCE removal was investigated by batch experiments and a higher TCE removal (98.

Analyzing the adsorptive behavior of Amoxicillin on four Zr-MOFs nanoparticles: Functional groups dependence of adsorption performance and mechanisms.

In this study, four functional Zr-MOFs (UiO-66-H, -NH, -NO, -Cl) were prepared, characterized (FESEM, XRD, BET, XPS, FT-IR) and compared to remove low-concentration Amoxicillin (AMX) from water. Then UiO-66-NH was selected for further experiments due to its highest adsorption capacity (2.3 ± 0.

Giant retroperitoneal ancient schwannoma: Is preoperative biopsy always mandatory?

Introduction: Schwannoma is the term given to tumours arising from Schwann cells of any nerve sheath. It may arise in the retroperitoneum, where it can attain enormous sizes and cause considerable diagnostic and therapeutic difficulties. A variety of incapacitating symptoms may arise, depending on its size alone and the related contagious organs.
