Evaluating soil quality and carbon storage in Western Ghats Forests, Karnataka, India, for sustainable forest management.

Monitoring soil quality index (SQI) and soil organic carbon (SOC) stock status of the Western Ghats (WG) forests in India is crucial for providing vital ecosystem services alongside sustainable forest management practices. However, comprehensive profile data on SQI and SOC stock across different forest types under WG forests are limited. The study evaluated SQI and SOC stock under three forest types, i.

An Anomalous Origin of the Accessory Splenic Artery and its Significance in Surgical and Radiological Contexts: A Case Report.

During the routine dissection classes for undergraduate medical students, we encountered a rare anatomical variation concerning the aberrant origin and course of the accessory splenic artery. The splenic artery is one of the direct branches of the coeliac trunk. During its tortuous course, it supplies the pancreas with greater curvature of the stomach and spleen.

Development and Validation of Stability Indicating RP-HPLC Method for the Estimation of Glycopyrrolate and Neostigmine in Bulk and Injection.

A stability indicating RP-HPLC method is suggested for determination of Glycopyrrolate-Neostigmine (GLY/NEO) in bulk drugs and injection formulation. GLY/NEO were eluted from a Chromolith High Resolution RP-18e (100 mm×4.6 mm) with buffer solution (pH 3.
