Preparation and physicochemical characterization of different biocomposite films blended with bacterial exopolysaccharide EPS MC-5 and bacteriocin for food packaging applications.

The study aims to evaluate how bacteriocin and extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) can influence the development of active packaging for food. The components might enhance the performance of packaging materials in terms of their physicochemical properties and their effectiveness in preserving food. Bacteriocin and EPS exert a significant effect in blocking the transmission of UV and visible light radiations.

Green synthesis of copper nanoparticles: a promising solution for drug resistance and cancer therapy challenges.

Green synthesis techniques have drawn a lot of interest lately since they are beneficial to the environment and have potential uses in a variety of industries, including biomedicine. Because of their special physicochemical characteristics, copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) have become one of the most interesting options for use in biological applications among nanomaterials. An overview of green synthesis methods for CuNPs is given in this review, along with a discussion of their applications in cancer therapeutics.

Luminescent TiO nanoparticles synthesized from Mollugo Oppositifolia and Trianthema Portulacastrum for dye degradation, antimicrobial and antioxidant properties.

In modern times, nanoparticles have materialized as indispensable things in contemporary medicine, with a variety of uses in clinical, drug and gene conveyance. In the present study, TiO nanoparticles (NPs) prepared from the leaf extracts of Mollugooppositifolia and Trianthema portulacastrum were compared with the chemical TiO-NPs for antibacterial and antioxidant activities and environment-friendly nature through various tools like the UV-visible, X-ray diffraction with the aid of other analytical techniques like HR-TEM, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) and photoluminescence spectroscopic techniques. The morphology of green TiO-NPs is found to be spherical, which is supported by HR-TEM images.

Effect of cryopreservation on motility, DNA integrity and gene expression in grey mullet, Mugil cephalus sperm.

This study documents the effect of cryopreservation on motility, DNA integrity, and gene expression in Mugil cephalus sperm. Fresh sperm were cryopreserved using V2 extender (V2E) or 0.3 M glucose, each in combination with one of three cryoprotective agents (CPAs), i.

Recent Advances in the Production of Pharmaceuticals Using Selective Laser Sintering.

Selective laser sintering (SLS) is an additive manufacturing process that has shown promise in the production of medical devices, including hip cups, knee trays, dental crowns, and hearing aids. SLS-based 3D-printed dosage forms have the potential to revolutionise the production of personalised drugs. The ability to manipulate the porosity of printed materials is a particularly exciting aspect of SLS.
