A Rare Presentation of Chronic Vulval Sinus: A Case Report.

We report an unusual case of the vulval sinus with persistent seroanguinous discharge in a 59-year-old postmenopausal woman. Examination revealed a 9-cm isolated sinus tract in the right labiocrural fold. This sinus tract was excised under anesthesia.

Fabrication of polydopamine decorated carbon cloth as support material to anchor CeO nanoparticles for electrochemical detection of ethanol.

A flexible CeO nanostructured polydopamine-modified carbon cloth (CeO/PDA/CC) interface was fabricated via electrodeposition for ethanol detection. The fabrication method involved two consecutive electrochemical steps in which dopamine was firstly electrodeposited on carbon fibers, followed by the electrochemical growth of CeO nanoparticles. The CeO/PDA-based electroactive interface exerts an impressive electrochemical performance on the flexible sensor due to strong synergistic effect of the PDA functionalization with more active sites.

Microscopic characterization of petiole anatomy of Asteraceous taxa of Western Himalaya-Pakistan.

Petiole anatomy of 15 species of family Asteraceae was examined which aimed to investigate petiolar anatomical structures for species level identification. Shandon Microtome was used for petiole histological preparations. Both qualitative and quantitative features were studied under microscope which showed significant variation in petiole, collenchyma, parenchyma shape/size, vascular bundles arrangement/size, and vessel elements quantity.

Synthesis of 2-nitro aniline derivative of 3, 4, 5-trihydroxybenzoic acid, its metal complexes, characterization and bioassay.

Present research work discloses new and novel synthesis of metal complexes (Fe, Cu, Zn, Sb and Sn) of 3, 4, 5-trihydroxybenzoic acid derivative containing aniline moiety with substitution at C-7 position of 3, 4, 5-trihydroxybenzoic acid in order to enhance its biological activities by coupling therapeutic values of transition metals as well. In vitro antibacterial and antifungal activities of these compounds has been performed by using agar diffusion method against different bacterial and fungal strains. The free radical scavenging assay was performed by using 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH).
