Reactive oxygen species mediated apoptotic death of colon cancer cells: therapeutic potential of plant derived alkaloids.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most deaths causing diseases worldwide. Several risk factors including hormones like insulin and insulin like growth factors (e.g.

A multiple gap plasma cathode electron gun and its electron beam analysis in self and trigger breakdown modes.

In the present paper, a pseudospark discharge based multiple gap plasma cathode electron gun is reported which has been operated separately in self and trigger breakdown modes using two different gases, namely, argon and hydrogen. The beam current and beam energy have been analyzed using a concentric ring diagnostic arrangement. Two distinct electron beams are clearly seen with hollow cathode and conductive phases.
