Comparative analysis of cytomorphology of thyroid lesion on conventional cytology versus liquid-based cytology and categorize the lesions according to The Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology.

Introduction: Thyroid nodules are a common disorder of the thyroid. Most of these are benign and only 5%-30% are malignant. Fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) plays a vital role in differentiating benign from malignant and hence directing toward timely intervention.

Benign fibrous histiocytoma of the maxilla: A rare case report and literature review.

Benign fibrous histiocytoma (FH) is a benign soft-tissue tumor that can present as a fibrous tissue mass anywhere in the body. The involvement of the paranasal sinuses is extremely rare, and very few cases have been reported in literature till date. We here report a case of benign FH localized in the maxillary sinus.

Screening for erucic acid and glucosinolate content in rapeseed-mustard seeds using near infrared reflectance spectroscopy.

Using partial least square regression, calibration for non-destructive estimation of erucic acid and glucosinolate contents in seeds of rapeseed-mustard by Fourier transform near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (FT-NIRS) was developed. The calibration developed showed a very close relationship between the reference method for erucic acid (gas chromatography) and glucosinolate content (palladium complex formation) and NIR spectral data from 7502.1 to 5444.
