Solar dryer with double pass flat plate solar collector and carbon nanodots-coated absorber surface.

The present study details the development of a solar dryer with double pass flat plate solar collector having carbon nanodots (CNDs) coated absorber surface. Among the various concentrations of CNDs (0.1, 0.

Bacopa monnieri confers neuroprotection by influencing signaling pathways associated with interleukin 4, 13 and extracellular matrix organization in Alzheimer's disease: A proteomics-based perspective.

Alzheimer's disease, a prevalent neurodegenerative disorder in the elderly, is characterized by the accumulation of senile plaques and neurofibrillary tangles, triggering oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, and neuronal apoptosis. Current therapies focus on symptomatic treatment rather than targeting the underlying disease-modifying molecular mechanisms and are often associated with significant side effects. Bacopa monnieri, a traditional Indian herb with nootropic properties, has shown promise in neurological disorder treatment from ancient times.

Tungsten and Titanium dioxide filled VMQ polymer composites-a new lead free & flexible gamma ray-shielding materials.

Flexible & lead-free gamma-ray-shielding composites were prepared using Vinyl Methyl Silicone (VMQ) matrix with Tungsten (W) and Titanium dioxide (TiO2) as fillers. The VMQ composites filled with 30 Phr (parts per hundred rubber) TiO2 and 0-70 Phr W were prepared by two-roll mill method. The dispersion of the filler particles in the composite matrix was analysed using Scanning Electron Microscope.

Serial evaluation of antibody titres in patients recovered from COVID-19 and their correlation with disease severity.

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 a pandemic. According to the findings of various studies conducted around the world, the serological response varies greatly among different populations, with the determinants of variable response still unknown, including the role of disease severity, which is thought to have a definite correlation. The purpose of this study was to assess serial SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibody response in COVID-19 patients and correlate it with disease severity.
