Polyhydroxyalkanoates are synthesized by microorganisms, similar to synthetic polymers, and completely biodegradable. Polyhydroxyalkanoates or PHAs can be processed in a similar way to synthetic polymers and are considered substitutes for petroleum-based plastics. In the culture media, bacteria and large amounts of organic carbon sources are responsible for 50% of the total cost of production of commercial PHAs. It is only possible for the PHA to have a greater commercial application in a reduct

Platelets' functionality is important for the activity of hemostasis and metabolism in mammals such as cattle. They are of particular importance in the growth of livestock offsprings. 43 healthy calves belonging to the Dutch breed were observed. The evaluation of blood parameters was carried out in these calves at the age of 11, 15, 20, 25, and 30 days. During this time, calves showed some tendency to inhibition of platelet aggregation and a tendency to increase discoid platelets in their bl

Around the world, plastic materials are being produced and consumed more as the global demand for plastic materials increases. Consequently, both marine and terrestrial life have been negatively affected by plastic waste pollution. Multiple health risks are associated with microplastics. The decomposition of plastics takes a long time, and therefore reusing plastics, burning them, chemically treating them, and burying them in landfills are not the best methods to reduce the polluting effects of

The medical term used for blood pressure is Hypertension (HTN). Hypertension is a common problem faced by most people today. The leading danger for many diseases such as CVD (cardiovascular) disorder and stroke is high blood pressure. Major diseases like CHF (congestive heart failure), renal disease and blindness can also be caused by HTN. Awareness of plant-based medication therapeutics is continuously increasing day by day. Different substitute medicaments such as a proper and balanced diet, h

Ovarian Cancer (OC) is among the most prevalent cancers in females. OC is one of the deadliest and worst prognosis diseases. Currently, there are no approved OC screening tests or early detection methods. Hence, new screening, prevention, and early detection strategies are still highly demanded. Plant compounds have recently become increasingly important in developing new, effective, and affordable anti-cancer drugs. To investigate the protein-ligand interaction, molecular docking was used with

The growth in overall demand for plastic materials has given rise to the manufacture and utilization of plastic articles throughout the world. This has led to extreme waste production, negatively influencing terrestrial and marine life. Microplastics lead to the endangerment of health. Therefore, plastic decomposition is a difficult task. Chemical treatments, recycling, carbonizing, and landfills aren’t ideal solutions for lowering plastic pollution. As a result of this, there is a need to

The study highlights the production of chitinase from Bacillus cereus BSH-4, which was isolated from a marine soil source and identified by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. After 96 hours of incubation in shake flask conditions profiling studies showed maximum enzyme activity and growth. The ammonium sulfate precipitation method was used at 80% saturation for partial enzyme purification with further purification done by dialysis wherein the purification fold increased to 1.75. The sodium dodecyl sulfat

Rheology is a branch of science with multiple implications in numerous sectors of industry, also constituting a generous field due to its multidisciplinary character. Thus, solving a problem in rheology calls for knowledge from modern mathematics, physics, chemistry, chemical and mechanical engineering, and materials science. Driven by the appearance of new materials (plastics and synthetic fibers, varnishes and paints, detergents, adhesives, pharmaceutical and cosmetic products, biological mate

For centuries humans have been interested in using biologically active compounds of animal origin to supplement their diets and to prevent and treat diseases. Nowadays, many extracts are produced to ensure the availability of dietary supplements to consumers worldwide. However, with the population constantly growing, there is a need to develop more effective extraction methods that can enable producers to supply the global market with high-quality products. In this paper, we study the structures

Coffee is one of the greatest widely and frequently drunk beverages globally. Epidemiological trends suggest that consumption is progressively rising due to the emergence of research indicating its varied health benefits and greater awareness of such information among laypersons. This literature review aimed to explore the relationship between coffee and health and disease, particularly whether consumption can improve blood glucose metabolism and the risk or control of diabetes mellitus. A syste
