Lung cancer is among the most common instances of cancer subtypes and is associated with high mortality rates. Due to the availability of fewer therapies and delayed clinical investigations, the number of cancer incidences is rising dramatically. This is possibly an effect of immune modulations and chemotherapeutic drugs that raises cancer resistance.

Globally, there is growing concern over the environmental contamination of coastal ecosystems caused by anthropogenic activities. Here,we performed a study to evaluate the degree of heavy metal contamination in 5 different sediment samples collected from five sites along the Southeastern coast of India. Additionally, the research aims to explore the potential ecological implications of heavy metal contamination on the bacterial diversity, a crucial factor in upholding a sustainable ecosystem.
