Impacts of Omega-3 Fatty Acids, Natural Elixirs for Neuronal Health, on Brain Development and Functions.

Omega-3 fatty acids play a seminal role in maintaining the structural and functional integrity of the nervous system. These specialized molecules function as precursors for many lipid-based biological messengers. Also, studies suggest the role of these fatty acids in regulating healthy sleep cycles, cognitive ability, brain development, etc.

Anaerobic digestion of sulphate-rich post-tanning wastewater at different COD/sulphate and F/M ratios.

Anaerobic digestion of post-tanning wastewater was performed in batch anaerobic digester to evaluate the effect of COD/sulphate ratio [0.62, 0.69, and 1.

Development of thin skin mimicking bilayer solid tissue phantoms for optical spectroscopic studies.

spectroscopic measurements have the proven potential to provide important insight about the changes in tissue during the development of malignancies and thus help to diagnose tissue pathologies. Extraction of intrinsic data in the presence of varying amounts of scatterers and absorbers offers great challenges in the development of such techniques to the clinical level. Fabrication of optical phantoms, tailored to the biochemical as well as morphological features of the target tissue, can help to generate a spectral database for a given optical spectral measurement system.
