The present study evaluated the potential of Ashoka, Saraca asoca leaf meal (SLM), in carp diets following fermentative processing with a tannase-producing fish gut bacterium, Bacillus subtilis (KP765736). The processing of SLM led to a significant (P < 0.05) reduction in major anti-nutrients (tannin, trypsin inhibitor, and crude fiber), while crude protein content increased.

- Intra and inter-pathologist variability complicates the evaluation of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) biopsy results, hindering patient selection and assessment quality in clinical trials.
- A study analyzed 120 histology slides with and without AI assistance to evaluate its impact on pathologists' reliability in fibrosis staging, especially for early fibrosis stages.
- Results showed that AI assistance significantly improved concordance among pathologists, increasing agreement rates for clinical trial inclusion and exclusion, which could enhance the overall efficiency and reliability of MASH-related clinical research.
Iron is a critical nutrient for all organisms ranging from bacteria to humans. Ensuring control of this strategic vital resource significantly influences the dynamics of the struggle between host and invading pathogen. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the causative agent of the pulmonary disease tuberculosis (TB), has been plaguing humans for millennia and has evolved to successfully persist and multiply within host cells evading the mammalian immune defences.

- The study explores how a plane wave interferes with localized waves using the coupled Fokas-Lenells equation, incorporating a four-wave mixing term.
- Significant findings include the creation of localized wave solutions through the linear superposition of plane and soliton waves, leading to various nonlinear interference patterns based on soliton parameters.
- The research could benefit fields like soliton control, all-optical switching, and optical computing through a systematic analysis of different interference conditions.
Influence of Edges and Interlayer Electron-phonon Coupling in WS/h-BN Heterostructure.
ACS Appl Mater Interfaces

The semiconducting layered transition metal dichalcogenides (e.g., WS) are excellent candidates for the realization of optoelectronic and nanophotonic applications on account of their band gap tunability, high binding energy and oscillator strength of the excitons, strong light-matter interaction, appreciable charge carrier mobility, and valleytronic properties.
