Nanoparticles have a wide range of responsive reactions in bacterial cells depending on their characteristics. They interact with organisms at a cellular level and are capable of producing unexpected reactions depending on their own and cell’s morphological features. Some functions provide betterment of cells and some cause disruptions in the cell functioning or exhibit toxicity for them. Nanoparticles, depending on their toxi Read More

The heightened attention to food and health safety has prompted researchers to conduct extensive research on biosensors that quickly detect foodborne microbial toxins and pathogens. Biosensors are a blessing due to their simple, cost-effective technique, but there are still some drawbacks with detection time, detection limit, and resilience. Incorporating functionalized nanomaterials into developing biosensors as Read More

Background: The compromising effect of reservoir’s compositions on the acceleration of oil towards the production center during recovery efforts in both primary and secondary applications prelude the application of nanofluid in the oil industry. Objective: This study explores the efficacy of Ascorbic acid on the surface of Zinc Ferrite nanoparticles in interfacial tension (IFT) and wettability modification. Methods: The use of co- Read More

Background: Small concentration of magnetic material, in general, the transition metal atoms (TM), when doped into a semiconductor, behaves as a diluted magnetic semiconductor (DMS). It has an application to Quantum computing & spintronic devices. DMS silicon carbide has strong coupling and high Curie temperature. The magnetic and electronic properties of SiC with TMs impurities have been in focus for theoretical and ex Read More

Objective: In this study, fenugreek gum (isolated from fenugreek seed) was modified into a grafted form using a microwave-assisted method. Acrylamide was used as a monomer, and ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN), potassium persulfate (KPS), and ammonium persulfate (APS) were used as redox initiators. Methods: The experimental design (Taguchi OA) was used to optimize the synthesis of the grafted copolymer of fenu Read More

Background: A new sensitive and rapid reverse phase HPLC method was developed for the simultaneous determination of vanillic acid (VA) and glyburide in the formulation and validated according to (ICH) Q2 (R1) guidelines. Methods: The HPLC analysis was performed using the C-18 reverse phase column and a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile and orthophosphoric acid (0.1% v/v) of ratio 70:30 v/v at 1 mL/min of flow ra Read More
