Subcutaneous dirofilariasis in children-An emerging zoonotic nematodal infection: A case series.

Human subcutaneous dirofilariasis is an infection caused by filarial worms. Due to the recent rise of human disease, it is considered as an emerging zoonosis. Most of the cases in children recorded in India had ocular infection; very few subcutaneous cases of dirofilariasis have been reported in children.

Nanopores of a Covalent Organic Framework: A Customizable Vessel for Organocatalysis.

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) as crystalline polymers possess ordered nanochannels. When their channels are adorned with catalytically active functional groups, their highly insoluble and fluffy powder texture makes them apt heterogeneous catalysts that can be dispersed in a range of solvents and heated to high temperatures (80-180 °C). This would mean very high catalyst density, facile active-site access, and easy separation leading to high isolated yields.
