The IUCN classifies two-endemic fishes of the Western Ghats in Peninsular India: Nilgiri mystus Hemibagrus punctatus is critically endangered, and Yellow catfish Horabagrus brachysoma is vulnerable. These are threatened by habitat degradation, excess fishing, and dam construction. ICAR-NBFGR, the premier research organisation in India for fish conservation, aims to conserve these two species through captive propagation, stock identification, and stock-specific ranching programs.

Background: Pericoronitis induces oxidative stress in the dental follicular (DF) tissue, which can lead to histopathological alterations. It is a fact that an impacted tooth with a history of recurrent pericoronitis should be extracted. But there is a limited research on the levels of nitric oxide (NO) in DF tissues of impacted mandibular third molars with even a single episode of pain, necessitating their removal biochemically at a younger age.

Qualitative and quantitative detection of biologically important molecules such as dopamine, thyroxine, hydrogen peroxide, and glucose, using newer and cheaper technology is of paramount importance in biology and medicine. Anion exchange in lead halide perovskites, on account of its good emission yield, facilitates the sensing of these molecules by the naked eye using ultraviolet light. Simple chemistry is used to generate chloride ions from analyte molecules.
