In this study, five seagrass species Halodule uninervis, Thalassia hemprichii, Enhalus acoroides, Cymodocea serrulata, and Syringodium isoetifolium collected from the Mandapam coastal region of Rameswaram (Palk Bay region), Tamil Nadu, India, were selected to identify the antioxidant-rich proteins/peptides. The primary objective was to identify the proteins/peptides present in these seagrass filtrates extracted by using four different pH-based buffer extracts and to assess their antioxidant activity. Among the various buffer extracts, 0.

Article Synopsis
  • Carbon Dots (CDs) were created from peanut shells via pyrolysis, showing an average size of 2-5 nm and an amorphous structure, and were characterized using various analytical techniques.
  • The PNS-CDs were applied as both priming and foliar agents to improve seed quality and productivity in blackgram, with optimal concentrations of 200 ppm for priming and 50 ppm for foliar spray yielding the best results in germination and various growth metrics.
  • The combination of seed priming and foliar spray significantly boosted photosynthetic efficiency and overall crop yield, showcasing the potential of using PNS-CDs as a sustainable agricultural tool that utilizes waste materials for enhanced productivity.

Neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) comprise a large number of disorders that affect the structure and functions of the nervous system. The major cause of various neurodegenerative diseases includes protein aggregation, oxidative stress and inflammation. Over the last decade, there has been a gradual inclination of neurological research in order to find drugs that can prevent, slow down, or treat these diseases.

Cervical cancer is a significant health problem worldwide, and early detection and treatment are critical to improving patient outcomes. To address this challenge, a deep learning (DL)-based cervical classification system is proposed using 3D convolutional neural network and Vision Transformer (ViT) module. The proposed model leverages the capability of 3D CNN to extract spatiotemporal features from cervical images and employs the ViT model to capture and learn complex feature representations.

Background: The aim of this investigation was to compare the effectiveness of 3% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), 2% chlorhexidine, 1% peracetic acid, and 10% povidone-iodine in the rapid disinfection of Resilon (Pentron Clinical Technologies, LLC, Wallingford, CT) and gutta-percha cones contaminated with Enterococcus faecalis and Bacillus subtilis.

Methods: Two hundred fifty-six samples consisting of 128 gutta-percha cones and 128 Resilon cones were used in this study. The materials were tested for disinfection according to the type of solution (3% NaOCl, 2% chlorhexidine, 1% peracetic acid, or 10% povidone-iodine), the time of exposure to each solution (1 or 5 minutes), and the type of microorganisms (E.
