Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the use of new serological markers to estimate the incidence of enteric fever caused by typhoidal Salmonella in regions without blood culture surveillance.
- Researchers collected blood samples from patients in Bangladesh, Nepal, Pakistan, and Ghana and used these samples to measure antibodies associated with the infection.
- Findings showed significant variability in typhoidal Salmonella infection rates among children under 5 years across different countries, suggesting this method could improve surveillance and incidence estimation globally.

Article Synopsis
- A novel bimetallic nickel oxide/copper oxide metal-organic framework (NiO/CuO MOF) was developed using two linkers, Benzene Dicarboxylic acid (BDC) and Pyrazine, and synthesized with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) via a hydrothermal method.
- The structural and morphological properties of the composites were analyzed using techniques such as XRD, SEM, EDX, FTIR, and Raman IR.
- The electrochemical performance showed that increasing rGO concentration improved the electrocatalytic activity for methanol oxidation, achieving a maximum current density of 437.28 mA/cm at 0.9 V, indicating its potential for application in direct methanol fuel
