A case report on multidisciplinary approach towards management of gastrojejunocolic fistula secondary to adenocarcinoma of the colon.

Introduction: Gastrojejunocolic fistula is an abnormal communication between a portion of the stomach, jejunum and the transverse colon. Gastrojejunocolic (GJC) fistula is an outcome resulting from the surgical procedures of gastrectomy and gastrojejunostomy used to address recurrent peptic ulcer disease and secondary to malignancy. Patients present with the typical symptoms of diarrhea, belching with fecal odor or fecal vomiting and weight loss.

Environmental Application of Graphene and Its Forms for Wastewater Treatment: a Sustainable Solution Toward Improved Public Health.

Public health is seriously jeopardized in developing countries due to poor sanitation and the presence of persistent pollutants in natural water bodies. Open dumping, wastewater discharge without proper treatment and atmospheric fallout of the organic and inorganic pollutants are the main causes behind the poor condition. Some of the pollutants pose a greater risk due to their toxicity and persistence.

Photocatalytic degradation of Congo Red under UV irradiation by zero valent iron nano particles (nZVI) synthesized using Shorea robusta (Sal) leaf extract.

In the present study, photo catalytic degradation of azo dye Congo Red was conducted using Fe nano particles (nZVI) in the presence of UV light. nZVI was biosynthesized using FeSO.7HO precursor and leaf extract of Shorea robusta (sal) as reducing agent under optimum condition of 1 mM concentration of precursor and a ratio of 1:1 Sal leaf extract to precursor.
