An assessment of metal absorption competence of indigenous metal tolerant bacterial species- an in-vitro study.

Heavy metals pose a serious global threat to the environment. Hence, removing hazardous metals from soil samples has become complicated over the past few years. The current work looked into the remediation of heavy metals from aqueous solutions using a bacterial community and a unique bacterium obtained from metal-contaminated soil.

Eco-friendly bioremediation of pollutants from contaminated sewage wastewater using special reference bacterial strain of Bacillus cereus SDN1 and their genotoxicological assessment in Allium cepa.

The present study aimed to assess the Bacillus cereus SDN1 native bacterium's ability to clean up contaminated or polluted water. The isolated bacterium was identified by its morphological and biochemical characteristics, which were then confirmed at the genus level. Furthermore, the isolated B.

Prevalence and effect of cyberchondria on academic performance among undergraduate dental students: An institutional based study.

Background: Cyberchondria has been used to describe an increase in anxiety about one's health status as a result of excessive online searches. These online health research studies were associated with a small but reliable increase in depression and anxiety which may decrease concentration of a student on academics.

Methods: The questionnaire was distributed among 302 undergraduate dental students (second year, third year, fourth year, and interns) of Kamineni Institute of Dental Sciences and Hospital.

Role of Magnetic Resonance Perfusion Imaging in Acute Stroke: Arterial Spin Labeling Versus Dynamic Susceptibility Contrast-Enhanced Perfusion.

Introduction: The role of perfusion neuroimaging in managing cases of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is to identify ischemic penumbra and regions of hypo-perfusion, which can be salvaged. Dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) perfusion imaging techniques have been the main magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) perfusion techniques used to identify AIS. Arterial spin labelling (ASL) is an alternative non-invasive perfusion technique, which permits tissue perfusion measurement without any need for administration of exogenous contrast agents.
