Deciphering Saquinavir-Bovine Serum Albumin Interactions: Spectroscopic and Computational Insights.

Bovine serum albumin (BSA) plays a crucial role as a carrier protein in plasma, binding various ligands, including drugs. Understanding the interaction between BSA and saquinavir, an antiretroviral drug, is essential for predicting its pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. We employed spectroscopic approaches, including circular dichroism spectrometry and fluorescence spectroscopy, to investigate the binding of saquinavir to BSA.

Evaluation of a synergistic blend of short- and medium-chain fatty acids as a dietary intervention for the effective management of Vibriosis in shrimp culture.

Vibriosis caused by Vibrio spp. is imposing severe havoc and adverse effects on shrimp culture. Antibiotics are the most widely used therapeutic measures against vibriosis.

Reliability of the documented blood group in motor vehicle driving license in Kerala, India - A public health concern?

Introduction: Blood groups documented in motor vehicle driving licenses can provide quick information during emergency transfusion requirements and imbibe self-awareness about one's blood group. The tendency of applicants to mention blood groups without verification during the application may result in incorrect documentation of blood groups in their driving license. The study aims to assess the reliability of the blood groups in driving licenses and their association with sociodemographic variables.

ERα, HER-2, pan-RAS, p53, and aromatase expression in spontaneous malignant canine mammary tumors: Prognostic relevance and association with clinicohistological parameters.

Aim: The interlacing interaction between proto-oncoproteins and tumor-suppressing proteins in malignant canine mammary tumors (mCMT) microenvironment remains largely unexplored. The present study intended to decipher the i) association between the intratumoral expression of ERα, HER-2, pan-RAS, p53 and aromatase, ii) their relationship with the clinicohistological parameters and serum sex hormones, and iii) their prognostic relevance in mCMT.

Materials And Methods: Tumor samples from animals with mCMT (n = 27) were subjected to histopathology and immunohistochemistry for ERα, HER-2, pan-RAS, p53, and aromatase.

A Comprehensive SWOT and TOWS analysis of transfusion medicine: Indian Perspective.

Background And Objective: SWOT and TOWS analysis is a strategic planning tool for identifying internal and external factors influencing a field. It helps to identify areas for improvement and growth by maximizing strengths and opportunities while minimizing weaknesses and threats. Transfusion medicine specialists can better understand the field's current status and plan potential growth using SWOT and TWOS strategic tools.
