Multiprocessing Substrates Enhanced TaO/NiCoO Spinel Nanocomposites for Effective Electro-/Photocatalytic and Toxicological Effects via the Model.

NiCoO spinel composites decorated with metal oxides (TaO), reduced graphene oxide (rGO), polyaminoanthraquinone (PAAQ), and layered double hydroxide hydrotalcite (HTs) were synthesized by the hydrothermal route. The synthesized composites were characterized using X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analyses for structural parameters such as surface area, morphology, chemical composition, etc. The production of oxygen by the water oxidation technique is the most suitable eco-friendly method, where rGO@TaO/NiCoO (RTNCO) showed an efficient oxygen evolution reaction (OER) performance under 1 M KOH electrolyte.

Study on impact of flexible endoscopy training course for surgeons in India.

Context: Competence in flexible endoscopy is essential for all surgeons during this era of minimal access surgery. However, fewer surgeons have expertise in endoscopy due to a lack of training and interest. The Indian Association of Gastrointestinal Endo Surgeons devised a short-structured training course in the art and science of endoscopy.
