The development of novel electrochemical sensors has attracted significant interest in detecting pharmaceutical compounds with high sensitivity and selectivity. Chromium oxide nanoparticles (Cr₂O₃ NPs) are promising materials for modifying carbon paste electrodes (CPEs) due to their excellent electrochemical properties and conductivity. The CrO NPs were synthesized by the combustion method using, chromium (III) nitrate and glycine at 350 ℃.

Antibiotics and chemicals in sink traps can select for pathogens and antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Optimising sink design and usage can mitigate sink-to-patient dissemination of pathogens, but large-scale surveys of hospital sink infrastructure are lacking.

Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of visual impairment and blindness that affects the eye from the age of fifty-five and older. It impacts on the retina, the light-sensitive layer of the eye. In early AMD, yellowish deposits called drusen, form under the retina, which could result in distortion and gradual blurring of vision.

This study enhances MRAS's resilience and dynamic performance by integrating an Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) controller into sensorless vector-controlled IM drives. The research addresses challenges related to parameter uncertainties, load variations, and external disturbances through the combination of MRAS and ANFIS.
