Safety, efficacy, and side effects of sodium fluorescein-aided resection of glioblastoma: a quasi-experimental study.

Background: The use of fluorescein sodium (FS) as a surgical adjunct in glioblastoma resection has shown promise in improving tumor visualization and resection outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and side effects of FS-aided resection in patients with glioblastoma.

Methods: This is a prospective, single-center cohort study conducted at Ibrahim Cardiac Hospital and Research Institute from September 2021 to November 2023.

RNAi-Based Therapy: Combating Shrimp Viral Diseases.

Shrimp aquaculture has become a vital industry, meeting the growing global demand for seafood. Shrimp viral diseases have posed significant challenges to the aquaculture industry, causing major economic losses worldwide. Conventional treatment methods have proven to be ineffective in controlling these diseases.

In Vivo and In Silico Assessment of Diabetes Ameliorating Potentiality and Safety Profile of Leaves.

Background: Diabetes mellitus is one of the most notable health dilemmas. Analyzing plants for new antidiabetic remedies has become an impressive territory for life science researchers. has long been used to treat diabetes.

Geographic variability of post-disaster mental health: case study after the 2017 flood in Bangladesh.

Every year Bangladesh faces enormous damages due to flooding. Facing these damages the Government adopts various recovery approaches. However, the psychological dimension of any disaster is generally overlooked in disaster management.

Current Knowledge Regarding Pharmacological Profile and Chemical Constituents of Gynura procumbens.

Gynura procumbens (Lour.) Merr. is a well-known plant used in folkloric medicine in tropical Asian countries.

Improved Electrical Properties of AlGaN/GaN High-Electron-Mobility Transistors by Tailoring the SiN Passivation Layer.

metal-organic chemical vapor deposition growth of SiN passivation layers is reported on AlGaN/GaN high-electron-mobility transistors (HEMTs) without surface damage. A higher SiN growth rate, when produced by higher SiH reactant gas flow, enables faster lateral coverage and coalescence of the initial SiN islands, thereby suppressing SiH-induced III-nitride etching. The effect of SiN passivation on the structural properties of AlGaN/GaN HEMTs has been evaluated using high-resolution X-ray diffraction.

Role of transport network accessibility in the spread of COVID-19 - a case study in Savar Upazila, Bangladesh.

The aim of this research was to test the hypothesis that people in a typical high-transport zone are particularly vulnerable with respect to transmission of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), a new contagious disease that has rapidly developed into a highrisk global problem. A case study was carried out in Savar Upazila, a sub-district of the capital city Dhaka in Bangladesh, which is traversed by a prominent national highway (Dhaka- Aricha-N5) that also passes the concentric industrial export processing zone surrounding Dhaka. This municipality is thus part of a high-density transport network with extensive economic activities.

Integration of GaN and Diamond Using Epitaxial Lateral Overgrowth.

Growth of single-crystalline GaN on polycrystalline diamond is reported for the first time. The structure was achieved using a combined process including selective diamond growth on GaN/Si wafers using hot filament chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and epitaxial lateral overgrowth of GaN on the window region between then above the diamond stripes via metal organic CVD. Optimization of the growth was performed by varying the ammonia to trimethylgallium mole ratio (V/III), chamber pressure, and temperature in the range of 8000-1330, 40-200 Torr, and 975-1030 °C, respectively.

Characterization of marine derived collagen extracted from the by-products of bigeye tuna (Thunnus obesus).

Fish collagen is gaining immense interest because the use of mammalian collagen is restricted due to disease transmission and religious issues. So, collagen was extracted and characterized from three different parts (skin, scale, and bone) of bigeye tuna using the acid and pepsin extraction methods. The yield of acid-soluble collagen (ASC) and pepsin-soluble collagen (PSC) in skin were 13.

Classification Method for Viability Screening of Naturally Aged Watermelon Seeds Using FT-NIR Spectroscopy.

Viability analysis of stored seeds before sowing has a great importance as plant seeds lose their viability when they exposed to long term storage. In this study, the potential of Fourier transform near infrared spectroscopy (FT-NIR) was investigated to discriminate between viable and non-viable triploid watermelon seeds of three different varieties stored for four years (natural aging) in controlled conditions. Because of the thick seed-coat of triploid watermelon seeds, penetration depth of FT-NIR light source was first confirmed to ensure seed embryo spectra can be collected effectively.

Pre-hybridisation: an efficient way of suppressing endogenous biotin-binding activity inherent to biotin-streptavidin detection system.

Endogenous biotin or biotinylated protein binding activity is a major drawback to biotin-avidin/streptavidin detection system. The avidin/streptavidin conjugate used to detect the complex of the biotinylated secondary antibody and the primary antibody binds to endogenous biotin or biotinylated proteins leading to non-specific signals. In Western blot, the endogenous biotin or biotinylated protein binding activity is usually manifested in the form of ~72kDa, ~75kDa and ~150kDa protein bands, which often mask the signals of interest.
