Carbon doped silver/iron/TiO₂ nanocomposite is synthesized via the solvothermal technique. Titanium tetraisopropoxide is used as a TiO₂ source. The composite samples are characterized by different physicochemical methods, including nitrogen adsorption-desorption analysis, transmission electron microscope, scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffraction, photoluminescence, UV-vis, Fourier-transform infrared, and Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The nanocrystalline structure of the samples with anatase phase having a tetragonal shape is shown by the XRD and TEM analysis. The photo-absorption boundary of pure TiO₂ expands into the visible light region due to composite formation, shown by analysis of UV-vis data. An increase in the degree of electron-hole couple segregation is shown via photoluminescence analysis. N₂ adsorption-desorption analysis manifests the higher surface area of samples along with mesoporous nature. The high photodegradation action is shown by the composite samples as compared to pure mesoporous TiO₂.

Hydrogeochemical characterization of shallow and deep groundwater for drinking and irrigation water quality index of Kathmandu Valley, Nepal.

Environ Geochem Health

January 2025

Environment Research Laboratory, Faculty of Science, Nepal Academy of Science and Technology, Khumaltar, Lalitpur, Nepal.

A comprehensive hydrogeochemical analysis of 156 groundwater samples (106 shallow and 50 deep) was conducted in the Kathmandu Valley, Nepal. This study addresses a significant research gap by focusing on the hydro-geochemical composition and contamination of groundwater in the Kathmandu Valley, an area with limited detailed assessments. The novelty of this work lies in its comprehensive analysis of both shallow and deep groundwater, particularly concerning the high concentration of contaminants like arsenic, microbial pathogens, and ammonium, which are critical for public health.

Background: With the expiration of patents for multiple biotherapeutics, biosimilars are gaining traction globally as cost-effective alternatives to the original products. Glycosylation, a critical quality attribute, makes glycosimilarity assessment pivotal for biosimilar development. Given the complexity of glycoanalytical profiles, assessing glycosimilarity is nontrivial.

Aim: This study aimed to investigate and compare the total and sectional bond strengths of three endodontic sealers when used with the single-cone obturation technique.

Materials And Methods: Forty-five human maxillary central incisors were prepared and divided into three groups according to the type of endodontic sealer: Group I (Gutta-percha/AH Plus Jet), group II (Gutta-percha/GuttaFlow 2), and group III (RealSeal/RealSeal SE). All canals were filled with the single-cone technique.
