Article Synopsis
  • * A study conducted over two years at Krishna Hospital in India analyzed 82 carbapenem-resistant isolates, revealing a significant prevalence of resistance, particularly among men aged 51-60, predominantly from urine samples in the Intensive Care Unit.
  • * Results showed an alarming 18.7% colistin resistance among CRE isolates, with the most effective alternatives being aminoglycosides like amikacin despite many isolates showing antibiotic resistance.

This study focuses on developing a g-CN/SbS heterojunction photocatalyst with different g-CN to SbS weight ratios (1:1, 1:3, and 3:1) for degrading tetracycline (TC) pollutants. The 1:3 ratio (13 GS) exhibited optimal photocatalytic performance, achieving 99% TC degradation under sunlight within 120 min, compared to 78.4% under visible light and 38% under UV light.

With climate change, terrestrial fauna in riparian floodplain ecosystems must adapt to a predicted increase in frequency and magnitude of fluvial perturbations. Seasonal migration to seek refuge from floodwaters represents a central adaptation strategy, but may entail risky navigation of anthropogenic spaces in heterogeneous landscapes. Here, we demonstrate the opportunities and constraints large-bodied mammalian herbivores face during an adaptive response of obligatory flood-driven refuge migration, across a human-dominated environment.
