Harnessing rice husks: Bioethanol production for sustainable future.
Curr Res Microb Sci
October 2024
The investigation of biofuel production from rice husks highlights its potential as a sustainable energy source amid rising environmental concerns and the gradual loss of fossil fuel sources. Biomass-derived biofuels, notably those derived from lignocellulosic materials, such as rice husks, provide a sustainable and environmentally friendly alternative that reduces greenhouse gas emissions while improving energy security. This review explores the need to produce biofuels along with the progression of biofuel technology throughout the four generations and the specific mechanisms involved in the conversion of bioethanol from rice husks.

- The mammalian cortex consists of different cell types that have specific properties, which are important for understanding how the cortex functions in both health and disease.
- Researchers utilized data from mouse and human studies to identify marker genes and enhancers for various cortical cell types, creating a comprehensive set of tools for targeting these cells specifically.
- They introduced fifteen new transgenic driver lines, two new reporter lines, and over 800 enhancer AAVs, facilitating a wide range of experimental approaches to study the mammalian cortex and its functions.
The mammalian brain consists of millions to billions of cells that are organized into many cell types with specific spatial distribution patterns and structural and functional properties. Here we report a comprehensive and high-resolution transcriptomic and spatial cell-type atlas for the whole adult mouse brain. The cell-type atlas was created by combining a single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) dataset of around 7 million cells profiled (approximately 4.

- The brain of a mouse has millions of different cells, and scientists want to make a complete list of these cell types to understand how the brain works.
- Researchers created a detailed map of these cells by studying around 7 million cells with a special technique that looks at their genes and how they are placed in the brain.
- They discovered that there are many different types of cells in the brain, with some areas being very unique, like the dorsal part having fewer but more distinct types, while the ventral part has many similar types.
have proven medicinal potential of antidiabetic, antiviral and immune stimulating properties. Flavonoids and triterpenoids from were more extensively investigated for antiviral, antidiabetic and immunomodulatory activities. In this present study, we have predicted the reported bioactive flavonoids and triterpenoids of the plant against the SARS-CoV-2 main protease, RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp), spike protein, angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE-2) receptor and dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP4) receptor through molecular docking and ADME predictions methods.
