Brain Metastases With Malignant Peritoneal Mesothelioma: Never Reported Before.

Malignant mesothelioma is a very rare diagnosis. Malignant mesotheliomas arise from surface linings of pleura, peritoneal cavity, or tunica vaginalis and pericardium with pleural malignant mesotheliomas being the most common. The incidence of brain metastases has been very low with malignant pleural mesotheliomas, but to date, there have not been any cases reported of brain metastasis with malignant peritoneal mesotheliomas.

Algae as an attractive source for cosmetics to counter environmental stress.

In recent times, a considerable amount of evidence has come to light regarding the effect that air pollution has on skin conditions. The human skin is the chief protection we have against environmental harm, whether biological, chemical, or physical. The stress from these environmental factors, along with internal influences, can be a cause of skin aging and enlarged pores, thinner skin, skin laxity, wrinkles, fine lines, dryness, and a more fragile dermal layer.

Synergistic effect of alkaline pretreatment and magnetite nanoparticle application on biogas production from rice straw.

Agricultural residues have high potential for biogas production, complex lignocellulosic structure is however the main hindrance in their bioconversion. This research focuses on combined effect of alkaline pretreatment of rice straw and magnetite (FeO) nanoparticle application. Four doses of magnetite nanoparticles viz.
