A bacterial ghost cell is an empty cell envelope of bacteria lacking cytoplasmic content. Bacterial ghost cells (BGs) can be used for various applications such as vaccines, adjuvants, and drug delivery systems. Since BGs offer many advantages over classically prepared vaccines, developing novel methods for the preparation of high-quality BGs remains to be an interesting field of study by various research groups.

Oral cancer is a widespread health concern in rural India due to a lack of awareness, delayed diagnosis and limited access to affordable treatment options. The current chemotherapy has notable side effects, underscoring the need for new drug candidates with improved bioavailability and specificity. In this current research, fucoidan, a sulphated polysaccharide, was extracted from the brown algae and shown to be cytotoxic against oral cancer cells (KB cell line) at an IC of 107.

Calcite-biochar composites are attractive materials with outstanding adsorption capabilities for removing various recalcitrant contaminants in wastewater treatment, however, the complexity of their synthesis limits their practical applications. In this work, we have prepared calcite-rich biochar (Ca-BC) from a single precursor (Tamarindus indica bark), which simplifies the synthetic route for preparing calcite-biochar composite. The as-synthesized composite is utilized to make a heterogeneous catalytic system containing the supported silver nanoparticles (Ag@Ca-BC) formed by the reduction of Ag ions on the surface of the composite.

Background: The excessive use of fertilizers and pesticides has distorted soil composition, fertility and integrity with non-desirable environmental and ecological consequences. A strategy was designed to prepare a nano structured slow release fertilizer system that delivers nutrients and plant growth promoting rhizobacteria simultaneously. Slow release nano phosphate and potash fertilizer was prepared by blending the nano emulsion of fertilizer with neem cake and PGPR.
