Navigating Regulatory Frameworks and Compliances for Bacteriophages as Therapeutic Agents.

The emergence of multiple antibiotic resistance in recurrent bacterial infections has led to exploring alternative therapeutic options, including using bacteria lysing viruses [bacteriophages] to control recalcitrant infections. Bacteriophages [Phage] and their end products such as enzymes, virus-like particles, and vectors are being used for varied applications such as basic and applied research for the field of phage therapeutics. Phage-based products and services such as viral vectors for gene therapy/vaccines, imaging agents, diagnostics as well as drug delivery agents form a wide range of useful innovative therapeutics that are under development.

Houseflies (Musca domestica) as vectors of multidrug-resistant, ESBL-producing Escherichia coli in broiler poultry farms of North India: implications for antibiotic resistance transmission.

The transmission of antibiotic resistance (AR) from farm animals to healthy human communities, beyond the food chain, is often facilitated by biological vectors, notably houseflies (Musca domestica). This study aimed to evaluate the role of M. domestica collected from commercial broiler chicken farms as a carrier of multidrug-resistant (MDR), extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli.

Enhancing NiS performance: Na-doping for advanced photocatalytic and electrocatalytic applications.

Alkali metal doping is a new and promising approach to enhance the photo/electrocatalytic activity of NiS-based catalyst systems. This work investigates the impact of sodium on the structural, electronic, and catalytic properties of NiS. Comprehensive characterization techniques demonstrate that Na-doping causes significant changes in the NiS lattice and surface chemistry translating into a larger bandgap than NiS.

Study of physiochemical properties of trisubstituted pyrazole derivatives using polar aprotic solvents.

Pyrazole derivatives are aromatic heterocyclic compounds endowed with multifaceted applications. In the present study 1,3,4-trisubstituted pyrazoles derivatives have been synthesized for the purpose of studying their physical properties and their characterization was done by FTIR, H NMR and C NMR spectroscopic technique. The measurement of densities (ρ) and viscosities (η) of solutions of substituted pyrazole derivative in polar aprotic solvent i.
