Making waves: The sensitivity of lakes to brownification and issues of concern in ecological status assessment.

Brownification or increasing water colour is a common problem in aquatic ecosystems. It affects both physico-chemical properties and biotic communities of the impacted waters. A common view is that lakes having low background water colour are most sensitive to brownification.

In Situ Adsorption of Red Onion () Natural Dye on Cellulose Model Films and Fabrics Exploiting Chitosan as a Natural Mordant.

Synthetic dyes and chemicals create an enormous impact on environmental pollution both in textile manufacturing and after the product's lifetime. Biobased plant-derived colorants and mordants have great potential for the development of more sustainable textile dyeing processes. Colorants isolated from biomass residues are renewable, biodegradable, and usually less harmful than their synthetic counterparts.

Revisiting the South Indian Traditional Plants against Several Targets of SARS-CoV-2 - An Approach.

Background: The south Indian Telugu states will celebrate a new year called 'Ugadi' which is a south Indian traditional festival. The ingredients used in ugadi pachadi have often also been used in food as well as traditional Ayurveda and Siddha medicinal preparations. Coronaviruses (CoVs) are a diverse family of enveloped positive-sense single-stranded RNA viruses which can infect humans and have the potential to cause large-scale outbreaks.

Use of electronic patient data storage for evaluating and setting the risk category of late effects in childhood cancer survivors.

Background: Many of the late effects of cancer treatment in childhood may occur even decades after the treatment, and only a minority of the survivors remain as healthy as their peers. Providing appropriate long-term care for childhood cancer survivors after transition to primary health care is a challenge. Both survivors and primary care providers need information on potential late effects.

Synthesis and Hypoglycemic and Anti-inflammatory Activity Screening of Novel Substituted 5-[Morpholino(Phenyl)Methyl]-Thiazolidine-2,4-Diones and Their Molecular Docking Studies.

Objectives: The aim was the synthesis of novel substituted 5-[morpholino(phenyl)methyl]-thiazolidine-2,4-diones and screening for their hypoglycemic activity and anti-inflammatory activity, as well as molecular docking studies to find out active potential lead molecules.

Materials And Methods: Substituted aromatic aldehydes, thiazolidine-2,4-dione, and morpholine on Mannich reaction gave the title compounds. They were characterized by physical and spectral methods.
