In this study, we designed a nanoscale platform for sustained amino acid delivery to support transplanted pancreatic islets. The platform features mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNPs) loaded with glutamine (G), an essential amino acid required for islet survival and function, and coated with polydopamine (PD). We investigated various PD concentrations (0.

Additionally, the widespread presence of microplastics and nanoplastics induces serious health risks for humans and animals. These pressing issues create an urgent need for designing and developing eco-friendly, biodegradable, renewable, and non-toxic plastic alternatives.

- Understanding the distribution of the Indian crested porcupine (Hystrix indica) is crucial for conservation efforts in human-dominated landscapes, particularly in the Parsa-Koshi Complex of Nepal.
- Researchers deployed cameras at 154 sites and found moderate occupancy (0.321) and detection probability (0.315) of porcupines, with higher occurrences in protected areas compared to outside.
- The study revealed that porcupine occupancy is positively influenced by agricultural land and human presence, while it decreases with more forest canopy cover, indicating the species' adaptability but also the potential for increased human-wildlife conflicts.
