ICMR-MDRF Diabetes Biosamples: Cohort profile.

Background & objectives Biobanks are crucial for biomedical research, enabling new treatments and medical advancements. The biobank at the Madras Diabetes Research Foundation (MDRF) aims to gather, process, store, and distribute biospecimens to assist scientific studies. Methods This article details the profile of two cohorts: the Indian Council of Medical Research-India Diabetes (ICMR-INDIAB) study and the Registry of people with diabetes in India with young age at onset (ICMR-YDR).

Design of optimal Elman Recurrent Neural Network based prediction approach for biofuel production.

Renewable sources like biofuels have gained significant attention to meet the rising demands of energy supply. Biofuels find useful in several domains of energy generation such as electricity, power, or transportation. Due to the environmental benefits of biofuel, it has gained significant attention in the automotive fuel market.

Insertion sequences and sequence types profile of clinical isolates of carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii collected across India over four year period.

Objectives: Acinetobacter baumannii emerged as a major nosocomial pathogen responsible for infections. In this study, we report the molecular characterization, association of insertion sequences and sequence types of clinical isolates of carbapenem resistant A. baumannii.

The Architectural Design of Deblocking Filter for Image Enhancement in the Diagnosis of Cancer.

Objective: This method is to reduce the risk of imprecise diagnosis associated with poor-quality CT images, this paper presents a new technique designed to enhance the quality of medical CT images. The main objective is to improve the appearance of CT images in order to obtain better visual interpretation and analysis, which is expected to ease the diagnosis process. The proposed technique involves applying a deblocking filter is to enhance the visual nature of a picture by diminishing the blocking artifacts.

Analytical method development and validation for the analysis of verapamil hydrochloride and its related substances by using ultra perfomance liquid chromatography.

A novel, economic, and time-efficient stability-indicating, reverse-phase ultra-performance liquid chromatographic (RP-UPLC) method has been developed for the analysis of verapamil hydrochloride in the presence of both impurities and degradation products generated by forced degradation. When verapamil hydrochloride was subjected to acid hydrolysis, oxidative, base hydrolysis, photolytic, and thermal stress, degradation was observed only in oxidative and base hydrolysis. The drug was found to be stable to other stress conditions.
