Scleroglucan Production by Microbes and Downstream Processing
Abstract: Polymer based synthetic petroleum and plant natural polysaccharides do have the drawback of limited sources, as well as the latter's non-biodegradability. Eco-friendly, low-cost, and standardised microbial polysaccharides, on the other hand, offer a viable solution to this problem. They drew international recognition due to their original and distinctive physical and chemical propertiesas well as a diverse spectrum of industrial applications, the majority of which are rapidly becoming economically competitive. Scleroglucan, …

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)
Abstract: ALS, or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord. A-myo-trophic comes from the Greek language. "A" means no. "Myo" refers to muscle, and "Trophic" means nourishment – "No muscle nourishment." When a muscle has no nourishment, it "atrophies" or wastes away. "Lateral" identifies the areas in a person's spinal cord where portions of the nerve cells that signal …

FPGA Improved I2C Protocol for Multiple Slave Device Using VHDL
Abstract: RTC, EEPROM, and an OV7620 image sensor are the slave devices that interact with the FPGA in this case (functioning as the I2C master device). Using the VHDL language, the process proceeds from system definition to functional design. The thesis presents the findings of simulated waveforms used for design verification. Additionally, hardware verification is carried out, and useful outcomes are shown. The results are compared with earlier reference work in …

Effect of Segmentation of White matter, grey matter and CSF in the prediction of Neurological disorders
Abstract: The segmentation of white matter, grey matter, and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) plays a crucial role in predicting and diagnosing neuro disorders. This study investigates the impact of precise segmentation techniques on identifying biomarkers and structural changes associated with various neurological conditions, including Alzheimer's disease, multiple sclerosis, and schizophrenia. By leveraging advanced imaging technologies and machine learning algorithms, we aim to enhance the accuracy of neuro disorder predictions through detailed analysis …

Compression-Only Life Support (COLS) for Laypersons: A Practical Approach to Cardiac Emergency Management
Abstract: Hemodynamic tissue perfusion is regulated by the pumping heart; the specialized cardiac cells have an autorhythm property that enables the heart to beat throughout life. When the pumping capability of the heart diminishes due to tissue ischemia, it leads to dysfunction. Pathological factors result in a decreased supply of blood to cardiac cells. Coronary circulation is at risk of stenosis due to spasm, plaque, or sclerosis, causing tissue hypoxia, injury, …

A Study on Autoimmune Diseases and Their Effects on Body Systems
Abstract: Autoimmune diseases are disorders in which the immune system mistakenly attacks the body’s own healthy cells, tissues, and organs instead of protecting them from harmful substances. This abnormal response results in inflammation, tissue injury, and impaired function of different organs. The purpose of this study is to present a general understanding of autoimmune disorders and explore their impact on multiple body systems, such as the musculoskeletal, nervous, endocrine, cardiovascular, and …

Innovative Solutions for Paralysis Care through Smart Technology and Automation
Abstract: When a part of the body becomes paralyzed, it sometimes even loses its feeling of touch. Multiple sclerosis, severe or lateral stroke, spinal cord injuries, and other conditions are common causes of paralysis. Moreover, disorders or trauma to the nervous system may disrupt the nerve signals that reach the extremities, resulting in paralysis. The goal of this proposed effort is to reinvent the treatment of paralysis by utilizing innovative approaches …

Recent Trend of Bio-Fungicide and Pesticide in Agriculture
Abstract: Biopesticides, which are commonly employed to combat harmful phytopathogens, are derived products made from living microbes, including plants, animals, fungi, bacteria, viruses, and minerals, as well as their bioproducts. In contrast to synthetic fungicides, the use of biopesticides in agricultural fields is a more cost-effective, environmentally safe, and target-specific method due to their biodegradability and environmental safety. Trichoderma spp.-based biofungicides are currently regarded as the most promising and dominant commercial …

Osteoarthritis of Knee
Abstract: The destruction of joints is characterized by the deterioration of articular cartilages; these are cushion-like substances that are present between the joints and act as a shock absorber. They lessen the rubbing of the joint surfaces. The common problems of the patient are joint swelling, joint stiffness, and pain. Knee osteoarthritis can be detected via radiographs showing bony cysts, narrow joint space, and sclerosing of the bone. Keywords: cartilage, lubrication, …

Hold on the Wave to Save A Life
Abstract: Human body is affected by direct entry of pathogen and its collateral damage of immune response by pathogen. Cytokines are specific type of proteins which are secreted by the immune system. It encodes the molecules which help in building immunity, inflammation and hematopoiesis. Cytokines are important for stimulating the immune system to fight a foreign pathogen or attack tumors. Effects include reduction of an immune response, for example interferon beta …
