Article Synopsis
  • * This study investigated the use of AgNPs combined with the local herb Swertia chirayita to tackle poultry pathogens, determining optimal conditions for their production and confirming their properties through various scientific methods like FTIR spectroscopy and zeta potential analysis.
  • * Results showed that AgNPs effectively inhibited the growth of major poultry pathogens like Salmonella spp. and E.coli, measuring significant inhibition zones; however, further research is needed to fully understand their synthesis and action mechanisms while optimizing conditions for large-scale production.

Situs inversus totalis (SIT) is a rare congenital condition which is characterised by the reversal of orientation of abdominal and thoracic organs where heart is on the right side of the thoracic cavity and liver on the left side, whereas stomach and spleen are on the right side in the abdomen. The reported prevalence of this anomaly is one in 5,000- 20,000 live births. This case reports the anaesthetic management of situs inversus totalis in a 38-year-old male patient, with a history of poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma of the colon, who underwent laparoscopic intervention converted to open nodular excision with incisional hernia repair.
