A quantitative research design and cross-sectional survey was adopted, and a structured questionnaire of five-point Likert scale was used and presented to the respondents (n = 150). The instrument reliability was tested by Cronbach Alpha while the data were analyzed by SPSS program using descriptive statistics, correlation and multiple linear regression. The results indicate that […]
Pudina, or mint, chutney is one of the most familiar condiments in South Asian kitchens, made by grinding fresh mint (Mentha spicata) and coriander (Coriandrum sativum) leaves together with sesame seeds (Sesamum indicum), tamarind (Tamarindus indica) pulp, jaggery, and lemon (Citrus limon) juice. It is eaten in small spoonfuls rather than as a staple food, […]
Discrete Mathematics is a part of mathematics which manages comprehension of discrete structures of issues in day-to-day life. Graph theory is one of the most advanced branches of discrete mathematics with variety of applications to different branches of Science and Technology. Topological indices play a crucial role in graph theory, especially in quantitative structure-property relationship […]
The paper explains how additive manufacturing works, the digital workflow behind producing a printed part, and the principal additive manufacturing process families — binder jetting, directed energy deposition, material extrusion, powder bed fusion, sheet lamination, vat polymerization, and wire arc additive manufacturing. It then surveys how these processes are being applied across aerospace, automotive, healthcare, […]
Nanotechnology has seen rapid growth over the past few decades, and with it, the importance of green nanotechnology has risen significantly. Green nanotechnology involves the eco-friendly synthesis of nanoparticles (NPs) using biological systems such as plants, animals, microorganisms, enzymes, and biomolecules. Biogenic synthesis offers advantages over traditional chemical methods, including lower toxicity, environmental sustainability, and […]
Mosquitoes are attracted to humans in a process that involves different factors. This process is shaped by what people eat their genes, the chemicals they smell and if they have any infections. This review brings together findings from studies about how diet affects this how certain smell receptors work, how plants that humans eat give […]
This paper presents NeuroBridge, a multilingual clinical decision-support framework that enhances standardized developmental screening without modifying established clinical scoring methodologies. The framework integrates standardized ASD and ADHD screening with machine learning-derived behavioral prioritization, an LLM-assisted behavioral interpretation module, automated PDF report generation, and pediatric care navigation to improve caregiver understanding and facilitate timely clinical referral. […]
Endophytic bacteria live inside tissues such as leaves, roots, rhizomes, and cells without harming the host plant. Medicinal plants harbor specialized endophytes of notable agricultural and biotechnological importance. Among these, Curcuma longa (turmeric) serves as a valuable source of specialized microorganisms. This study isolated endophytic bacteria from Curcuma longa leaves and rhizomes collected from agricultural […]
Battery energy storage has transitioned from portable electronics to critical infrastructure for renewable electricity, e-mobility, distributed generation, and grid flexibility. Connecting electrochemical performance with resource security, manufacturing, safety, lifetime management, and recycling provides a comprehensive sustainability perspective. While lithium-ion systems remain dominant—with lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) leading stationary storage due to cost, cycle life, and thermal robustness—sodium-ion, […]
Inflammation is a coordinated biological response involving immune, endocrine, and neural signalling, though persistent low-grade inflammation drives chronic diseases and neuroinflammation. Tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), alongside interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β), acts as a primary pro-inflammatory cytokine. Mind–body modalities—including mindfulness meditation, Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), Tai Chi, Qigong, and Yoga—are widely investigated as complementary therapies […]
Microbial genome engineering, from modification of individual genes toward genome minimisation, genome-wide recoding, genetic-code engineering, and de novo engineering of microbial genomes, is an emerging area of synthetic biology that aims to design, construct, and test genomes with defined genetic architectures and biological functions. Recent advances have expanded large-scale synthetic DNA assembly. This review summarises […]
The development of messenger RNA vaccines against diseases has shown that RNA is a great tool for biomedical applications. RNA can be used to make treatments quickly and in a controlled way. Now people are looking into using RNA for things, including cancer immunotherapy, replacing proteins, treating rare diseases, regenerative medicine, and gene regulation or […]
This review examines the emerging applications of space biotechnology, focusing on microgravity-induced biological responses, microbial and photosynthetic systems, bioregenerative life-support systems, in-space biomanufacturing, and synthetic biology. These biological systems can contribute to oxygen production, carbon fixation, food generation, nutrient recovery, waste recycling, and production of pharmaceuticals and biomaterials. Despite their potential, challenges including radiation, biological […]
This narrative review discusses MenSC biology and proposed mechanisms of regeneration, including their role in wound healing, tissue engineering and repair, novel approaches, challenges, variations, and inconsistencies regarding their use and explores their future and possible roles in regenerative medicine. It also emphasizes on the opportunities and future directions for research, including the use of […]
The rising demand for healthy, clean-label, minimally processed, and eco-friendly foods has spurred research into natural preservation technologies. Recently, postbiotics have gained significant attention as stable antimicrobial agents capable of replacing live microorganisms. Diverse postbiotic compounds—including organic acids, bacteriocins, antimicrobial peptides, and enzymes derived from non-living microbial cells—can be effectively applied for food preservation. In […]
Tuberculosis (TB), caused predominantly by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, remains a major global infectious disease despite advances in antimicrobial treatment, diagnosis, and public-health interventions. The Bacille Calmette–Guérin (BCG) vaccine is currently the only widely used licensed TB vaccine and has been administered for more than a century. Although BCG provides substantial protection against severe forms of childhood […]
The connection between food and human health has become an important area of research because diet can influence several processes involved in the development of chronic diseases. Food provides essential nutrients, but some foods also contain biologically active compounds that may affect inflammation, oxidative stress, metabolism, cellular signalling, and the gut microbiome. This has increased […]
Growing scientific evidence suggests that mind-body practices, particularly meditation, influence physiological responses to stress by altering immune function, energy metabolism, and gene expression. Central to these effects is the downregulation of pro-inflammatory gene pathways, notably nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB), which plays a critical role in mediating chronic stress and inflammation. Multiple reviews and clinical […]
Treating male infertility caused by the absence of germ cells remains a major biomedical challenge. To address this, scientists are investigating cell therapy utilizing pluripotent stem cells differentiated into spermatogonia. While animal models, particularly mice, have provided vital insights into primate and human reproductive biology, replicating this differentiation process under human-like culture conditions remains prolonged […]
CRISPR-Cas genome editing has rapidly evolved from a molecular biology tool into a clinically validated therapeutic modality, with the liver serving as the primary proving ground for in vivo human applications. Hepatocytes are uniquely suited for systemic genetic interventions due to high hepatic blood flow, natural receptor accessibility for delivery vehicles, and a comparatively tolerant […]
Breast cancer is a major global health concern, and the limitations of conventional cancer therapies have increased interest in natural products as potential complementary therapeutic agents.
