3D printed Aloe barbadensis loaded alginate-gelatin hydrogel for wound healing and scar reduction: In vitro and in vivo study.

Wounds are one of the most critical clinical issues in plastic surgery repair and restoration. Conventional wound dressing materials cannot absorb enough wound exudates and shield the site from microbial infection. Also, despite their healing prowess, bioactive molecules from medicinal plants are less bioavailable at the wound sites.

Default mode network functional connectivity as a transdiagnostic biomarker of cognitive function.

The default mode network (DMN) is intricately linked with processes such as self-referential thinking, episodic memory recall, goal-directed cognition, self-projection, and theory of mind. Over recent years, there has been a surge in examining its functional connectivity, particularly its relationship with frontoparietal networks (FPN) involved in top-down attention, executive function, and cognitive control. The fluidity in switching between these internal and external modes of processing-highlighted by anti-correlated functional connectivity-has been proposed as an indicator of cognitive health.

Combining Thermogravimetry-Mass Spectrometry and Target Factor Analysis for Rapid Characterization of Volatiles from Degradation of Epoxy Paint.

Thermogravimetry coupled with simultaneous evolved gas analysis by mass spectrometry was used for discerning organic compounds released during the thermal degradation of paint whose chemical compositions are not readily accessible. Thermogravimetric analyses up to 600°C revealed distinct degradation patterns under inert and oxidative conditions. Significant degradation of paint initiates at around 360°C and concludes at 500°C in a nitrogen atmosphere.

Extreme temperatures elicit the accumulation of cardiac glycoside and their genin units in Calotropis procera by altering the expression of transcripts involved in its biosynthesis.

Calotropis procera (Aiton) W.T. Aiton is a medicinal plant belonging to the family Apocynaceae as a core source of natural cardenolides.

3D printed sodium Alginate-Gelatin hydrogel loaded with Santalum album oil as an antibacterial Full-Thickness wound healing and scar reduction Scaffold: In vitro and in vivo study.

Managing wounds and accompanying consequences like exudation and microbiological infections is challenging in clinical practice. Bioactive compounds from traditional medicinal plants help heal wounds, although their bioavailability is low. This study uses sodium alginate (SA), gelatin (G), and Santalum album oil (SAL) to 3D print a polymeric hydrogel scaffold to circumvent these difficulties.
