Article Synopsis
- The study examined the presence of antibiotic residues in milk from five farms in Keraniganj, Dhaka, focusing on commonly used antibiotics like oxytetracycline and fluoroquinolones.
- Using a reliable RP-HPLC method, the study found that oxytetracycline was present in 90% of milk samples, with levofloxacin (66%), enrofloxacin (64%), and ciprofloxacin (62%) also detected.
- While 30% of oxytetracycline-positive samples exceeded the maximum residue limits (MRL), no samples exceeded the MRL for the other antibiotics, indicating low human health risks, though children might be more vulnerable to prolonged
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the relationship between plasma phosphorylated tau (P-tau181) and plasma metabolites in cognitively normal adults, especially in the context of early Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology linked to amyloid-β (Aβ) deposition.
- It finds significant positive associations between medium- and long-chain acylcarnitines and P-tau181 across all participants, implying a connection between Aβ-related mechanisms and fatty acid metabolism.
- Additionally, certain metabolites correlate with cognitive performance in Aβ-positive individuals, suggesting their potential role in predicting cognitive decline linked to AD.
Hydrogels, typically favored for 3D printing due to their viscoelasticity, are now trending toward ecofriendly alternatives amid growing environmental concerns. In this study, we crafted cellulose-based hydrogels, specifically employing cellulose acetate sulfate (CAS). By keeping the acetyl group substitution degree (DS = 1.

Healthcare workers (HCWs) are more susceptible for acquiring Covid-19 due to direct or indirect exposure to Covid-19 patients. Therefore, it is important to investigate demographic, clinical characteristics and outcome of affected persons and possible source of infection with exposure details.
