Magnesium is renowned for its favorable low-density attributes, rendering it a viable choice for commercial engineering applications in which weight has substantial design implications. Magnesium (Mg) stands as a readily obtainable metallic element, exhibiting robustness, efficient heat dissipation, and excellent damping properties. The utilization of pure magnesium remains infrequent due to its susceptibility to instability under high temperatures and pronounced vulnerability to corrosion within humid environments.

Owing to their functional attributes in alleviating the gastrointestinal disorders, single or polyherbal formulations have gained attention to treat the symptoms of functional dyspepsia. We have investigated the safety and efficacy of a novel formulation of Ferula asafoetida oleo resin and standardized Silybum marianum extract (Asdamarin).

Among the other aetiological factors of the "de-novo" Thrombotic Microangiopathy (TMA), the condition especially has to be differentiated from an antibody mediated rejection, as both have different pathogenesis, therapeutic connotations and outcomes.We report a case of a middle aged female renal transplant recipient treated with tacrolimus, who developed localised thrombotic microangiopathy in the early post transplantation period.

An average reduction in leaf water potential (Ψ ) from -0.
