Investigating the temporal dynamics of sub-micron particles and particle-bound transition metals in indoor air of a metropolitan city.

The present study portrays an association between particle-bound transition metals and children's health. The indoor air quality of the urban metropolitan city households was monitored for four PM sizes, namely PM, PM, PM and PM, in major seasons observed in the city; summer and winter. Further transition/heavy metals, viz.

Assessment of indoor air quality and their inter-association in hospitals of northern India-a cross-sectional study.

This study was commenced to evaluate the indoor and outdoor air quality concentrations of PM, sub-micron particles (PM, PM, PM, PM, and PM), heavy metals, and microbial contaminants along with their identification in three different hospitals of Lucknow City. The study was conducted from February 2022 to April 2022 in hospitals situated in the commercial, residential, and industrial belts of the city. The indoor concentration trend of particulate matter as observed during the study suggested that most of the highest concentrations belonged to the hospital situated in an industrial area.

Computational Drug Designing and Prediction Of Important Parameters Using in silico Methods- A Review.

Background: Computational or in silico studies are undertaken to assess the drug like properties of lead compounds. These studies help in fast prediction of relevant properties.

Objective: Through this review, an effort is made to encapsulate some of the important parameters which should be met by a compound for it to be considered as a potential drug candidate along with an overview of automated softwares which can be used for making various predictions.

Urban air pollution & its assessment in Lucknow City--the second largest city of North India.

Investigations were carried out during the summer season (March-June 2012) to observe the quality of indoor air by monitoring the levels of some selected air pollutants at 15 different houses covering the urban areas of Lucknow City. Concentrations of CO2, CO, PM10, PM2.5, SO2 and NO2 were monitored indoors and outdoors simultaneously and I/O ratios were calculated.

Hydrogen Sulfide Emissions from Sow Farm Lagoons across Climates Zones.

Hydrogen sulfide (HS) emissions were measured periodically over the course of 2 yr at three sow waste lagoons representing humid mesothermal (North Carolina, NC), humid microthermal (Indiana, IN), and semiarid (Oklahoma, OK) climates. Emissions were determined using a backward Lagrangian stochastic model in conjunction with line-sampled HS concentrations and measured turbulence. The median annual sow-specific (area-specific) lagoon emissions at the OK farm were approximately 1.

Increasing underrepresented scientists in cancer research: the UCSD CURE program.

The Moores UCSD Cancer Center's Continuing Umbrella of Research Experiences program aims to increase the number of underrepresented students pursuing careers in cancer research, cancer care, and health disparities research. Participants receive 8 weeks of laboratory and classroom training during the summer followed by participation in research mentors' laboratories. Of the 82 CURE students accrued (2002 and 2008), 91% persisted in science after 1 year.

Investigation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in soil at Agra, India--a case study.

Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) are released into the environment from anthropogenic sources, such as combustion of fossil fuels, refused burning, industrial processes and motor vehicle exhausts. The concentration of PAHs in roadside soil was measured at St. John's crossing, which lies in the centre of Agra city and exposed to heavy traffic.
