Mesoporous bioactive glass, with its versatile characteristics and morphology, holds significant potential as an ideal hemostatic material. However, limited data is available regarding its toxicity levels. Consequently, this research intends to assess the acute and repeated dose dermal toxicity of Mesoporous antibacterial bioactive glass microsphere impregnated nonwoven surgical cotton gauze (MABGmscg) dressing in albino Wistar rats, following the standards set by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.

Article Synopsis
  • - This study aimed to assess the risk of acute cardiovascular events (CVE) in patients with paracentral acute middle maculopathy (PAMM) by evaluating a cohort of 43 individuals at Moorfields Eye Hospital over several years.
  • - Researchers divided participants into younger (under 50) and older (50 and above) age groups, while considering those with retinal vascular diseases (RVD) versus those with isolated PAMM (iPAMM).
  • - Results showed that older patients with iPAMM faced a significantly higher risk of CVE compared to those with PAMM + RVD, especially with an early peak in risk for iPAMM; younger patients did not experience adverse cardiovascular events.

A simple imine derivative based sensor (IDP) has been synthesized and characterized by  H NMR,  C NMR and mass spectral techniques. IDP is more capable of detecting perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) in a selective and sensitive manner. The PFOA as a biomarker interacts with IDP and shows "TURN-ON" response by colorimetric and fluorimetric method.
