Green Power: The Role of Plant-Based Biochar in Advanced Energy Storage.

This comprehensive review aims to provide an overview of recent progress in utilizing plant-based biochar for supercapacitors. It specifically focuses on biochar derived from plant biomass such as agricultural residues, weeds and aquatic plants, examining their potential in energy storage applications. It explores various synthesis methods like pyrolysis and hydrothermal carbonization and evaluates their impact on biochar's structure and electrochemical properties.

A geotechnical perspective on soil-termite interaction: Role of termites in unsaturated soil properties.

The soil-insect interaction has gathered significant attention in the recent years due to its contribution to bio-cementation. Termites, as a group of cellulose-eating insects, alter physical (texture) and chemical (chemical composition) properties of soil. Conversely, physico-chemical properties of soil also influence termite activities.

Characterization of insecticidal metabolite oosporein in Lecanicillium saksenae (Kushwaha) Kurihara and Sukarno, a geographically distinct isolate from Kerala, India.

Lecanicillium saksenae, an indigenous isolate from Kerala, India is a potent entomopathogen against hemipteran pests. The wine-red pigmentation produced by this isolate distinguishes it from many other isolates of L. saksenae reported across the globe.

Hybridization of long short-term memory with Sparrow Search Optimization model for water quality index prediction.

Water quality (WQ) analysis is a critical stage in water resource management and should be handled immediately in order to control pollutants that could have a negative influence on the ecosystem. The dramatic increase in population, the use of fertilizers and pesticides, and the industrial revolution have resulted in severe effects on the WQ environment. As a result, the prediction of WQ greatly helped to monitor water pollution.

Toxicity and Antiulcer Properties of (Wall.) Choisy Leaves: An Approach Using Wistar Albino Rats.

Humans have been using herbs to prevent and cure various ailments since antiquity, and is a significant medicinal plant known for its wide ethnobotanical uses. Although the plant is known to treat ulcers, there is no significant scientific validation. The present study aimed to assess the acute toxicity, subacute toxicity, and antiulcer properties of the leaf methanol extract of (IWL).
