Radiation stability of two extraction chromatography resins containing aza-crown-based diglycolamides used for Am(III) uptake.

The radiolytic stability of two extraction chromatography resins with multiple diglycolamide arms was investigated by exposing them to gamma radiation and carrying out uptake studies of Am(III) from acidic feeds. The resins contained aza-crown-based diglycolamide (DGA) ligands, viz., triaza-9-crown-3-N,N',N"-trisdiglycolamide (TAM-3-DGA) and tetraaza-12-crown-4-N,N',N",N'"-tetrakisdiglycolamide (TAM-4-DGA), where the DGA moieties were grafted to the 'N' atoms of the macrocyclic ring.

Seroprevalence of melioidosis and its associated risk factors -A population-based study in Odisha, Eastern India.

Melioidosis, caused by , is an emerging disease in Odisha, a state in eastern coastal India. Difficult to diagnose, the disease is likely to be severely underreported. Seroprevalence studies in the general population are deemed necessary for an estimate of melioidosis endemicity and to explore the associated risk factors.

Lysozyme/N-GQD loaded carboxymethyl cellulose hydrogels for healing of excision wounds in Drosophila and Sprague Dawley rats.

Delayed healing and fibrosis at the wound site present significant challenges in the wound care industry, often leading to complications such as infections, chronic wounds, and impaired tissue regeneration. Therefore, there is a critical need for advanced wound dressing materials that promote faster healing, prevent bacterial infections, and support effective tissue repair. This study aims to develop a Lysozyme (Lys)-based wound dressing with enhanced wound closure rates by incorporating nitrogen-doped graphene quantum dots (N-GQDs) as a functionalized nanofiller to strengthen its antibacterial properties.

A Re-emerging Respiratory Virus: Human Metapneumovirus (hMPV).

Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) is identified as a pathogenic agent responsible for respiratory tract infections in paediatric, adult and elderly populations. It is a spherical, enveloped virus with a diameter of 209nm, consisting of a single-stranded, non-segmented, and negative-sense RNA genome of around 13.3 kb in length.
