Recent developments in the production of prebiotic fructooligosaccharides using fungal fructosyltransferases.

Prebiotic nutritional ingredients have received attention due to their health-promoting potential and related uses in the food and nutraceutical industries. Recent times have witnessed an increasing interest in the use of fructooligosaccharides (FOS) as prebiotics and their generation using microbial enzymes. FOS consumption is known to confer health benefits such as protection against colon cancer, improved mineral absorption, lowering effect on serum lipid and cholesterol concentration, antioxidant properties, favourable dietary modulation of the human colonic microbiota, and immuno-modulatory effects.

The Structural and Thermal properties of Badarashma Pishti.

Background: Lapis judaicus, or Jews stone (Badarashma), has been used in treating kidney and bladder stones since ancient times by Ayurvedic and Unani medicinal practitioners. A limited number of studies have been carried out using Ayurvedic preparations derived from gems or precious stones that were used traditionally. In Ayurveda, Rasa Shastra includes the fabrication of Bhasmas and Pishti.

Beyond conventional antibiotics approaches: Global perspectives on alternative therapeutics including herbal prevention, and proactive management strategies in bovine mastitis.

Mastitis, an intramammary inflammation resulting from microbial infectious agents, continues to pose a significant challenge within the dairy sector, adversely affecting animal well-being and leading to substantial economic losses. These losses are attributed to decreased milk production, heightened culling rates, and the expenses related to diagnostics, veterinary care, medication, and labor. Moreover, additional costs emerge due to reduced forthcoming milk yields, compromised reproductive health, and increased susceptibility to various illnesses.

A Comparative Study of Combined Spinal Epidural Anesthesia Versus Spinal Anesthesia in Major Lower Limb Orthopedic Surgeries.

Background Neuraxial blockade includes epidural and spinal anesthesia (SA) that have gained wide acceptance for major lower limb orthopedic surgery. Both techniques are competent in rendering surgical anesthesia and pain relief, with specific advantages and disadvantages. SA has the merits of rapid onset and adequate anesthesia with a small volume of the drug but has significant hypotension and unpredictable duration.

Graphene and its hybrid nanocomposite: A Metamorphoses elevation in the field of tissue engineering.

In this discourse, we delve into the manifold applications of graphene-based nanomaterials (GBNs) in the realm of biomedicine. Graphene, characterized by its two-dimensional planar structure, superconductivity, mechanical robustness, chemical inertness, extensive surface area, and propitious biocompatibility, stands as an exemplary candidate for diverse biomedical utility. Graphene include various distinctive characteristics of its two-dimensional planar structure, enormous surface area, mechanical and chemical stability, high conductivity, and exceptional biocompatibility.
