A previously healthy young man presented with a chronic cavitary pulmonary infection that began while in Goa, India. was cultured from sputum samples. The infection fully resolved after prolonged antibiotic treatment. Other than traveling during the monsoon season, extensive use of well-water for water-pipe smoking of cannabis was identified as a possible risk factor for infection. This is one of the first reports of travel-associated melioidosis from India. Genomic and immunological characterization suggested that the isolate collected from the reported case exhibited limited similarity to other strains.

In the present study, combustion-synthesized TiO nanoparticles were wet impregnated with Ni, Co, and Ni-Co, respectively. The photocatalytic performance of synthesized catalysts was evaluated against Malachite Green dye. The synthesized materials were characterized for crystallite size, surface morphology, elemental composition, and band gap using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, and ultra-violet diffused reflectance spectroscopy, respectively.

Context: There has been growing interest in amino acid ionic liquids because of their low-cost synthesis and superior biodegradability and biocompatibility compared to traditional ionic liquids. In this study, we have investigated the structure and dynamics of three ionic liquids consisting of N-butyl N-methyl piperidinium [Pip] cation with amino acid (lysine [Lys], histidine [His], and arginine [Arg]) anions. The radial distribution functions, the spatial distribution functions, and the coordination numbers have been used to analyze the structure in the bulk phase.

Background: Immunoglobulin G4 related disease (IgG4-RD) is an immune-mediated, multifocal, fibroinflammatory disease with varied clinical manifestations. The involvement of head and neck region is infrequent. The objective was to report a case of localized IgG4-RD of mandible that clinically mimicked a lytic lesion.
