This paper brings out a study on the feedback from teachers which is carried out after the pandemic situation. The analysis is performed based on various aspects of classroom teaching after the pandemic such as quality of teaching and effectiveness of usage of tools. The fuzzy models like Combined Effective Time Dependent Matrix (CETD), Average Time Dependent Data Matrix (ATD) and Refined Time Dependent Data Matrix (RTD) are applied using the fuzzy matrix theory concepts for the purpose of analysis to bring out the teachers views about the classroom teaching after the pandemic. The effects of classroom teaching after the pandemic among the students are obtained by using concept of average and standard deviation (SD) of the real data matrices. In order to do the analysis, collect the responses by circulate the few questionaries’ among teachers through the Google forms. The graphical representations for the responses are obtained

Construction of Heteroatom-Doped Porous Carbon Architectures for Energy and Sensing Applications

In this chapter, we have concentrated on the main electrocatalytic oxygen processes, oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and water splitting oxygen evolution reaction (OER), and biosensors based on porous carbon architectures, which are more important areas of research because of the rise in demand for energy management, supply, and disease diagnosis. Heteroatom-doped carbon hollow spheres are very useful because they have a large surface area, mesoporosity, spherical wall thicknesses, edge plane defect sites, catalytic active sites, and fast heterogeneous electron-transfer rates. These properties are very important for making commercial devices. This chapter provides an overview of hollow carbon nanospheres that are doped with single and double heteroatoms, as well as cobalt oxide. These carbon compounds function as dual catalysts for OER and ORR, as well as an effective electrocatalyst for the oxygen reduction process in both acidic and alkaline media. Electrocatalytically, heteroatom-doped carbon sphere-modified electrodes can simultaneously and specifically identify and determine the analytes, while also validating the target species in real samples. N-doped hollow carbon spheres coated-Co3O4 functioned as an efficient dual-function oxygen electrocatalyst for oxygen evolution and oxygen reduction processes and also as a biosensor for highly effective electrochemical sensing of acetaminophen. A symmetric supercapacitor using dual heteroatom-doped and SBA-15 templated porous carbon was also discussed

Microbial Production of Amylase from Cassava Waste

Bacterium mura was isolated from cassava waste, (Tamil Nadu, India) for the production of extracellular amylase. On screening for amylase producing bacteria, 5 isolates showed positive results, of which Bacterium mura showed best amylase activity. The optimal conditions for the amylase activity were found at pH 6.0 (39 U/ml) and at temperature 37°C. Amylase activity was found to be higher when lactose (31 U/ml), casein, barley (42 U/ml) and SDS (32 U/ml) were used as the carbon source, nitrogen source, agro waste source and as additives respectively. The enzyme was partially purified by dialysis and the molecular mass was found to be 65kDa by SDS-PAGE. The partially purified and crude amylase was confirmed by zymogram. The partially purified amylase was used in bread making, which improved the softening of the bread and was used as a de-sizing agent

ANALYSIS OF THE GROWTH RATE OF FEMININE MOSQUITO THROUGH DIFFERENCE EQUATIONS

The mosquito life cycle is developed mathematically with the concept of difference equation. The qualitative properties of the life-cycle are analyzed. The Lyapunov function is defined for difference equation to stabilize the system of mosquito life cycle. A novel technique is applied for deriving stability criterion, especially the back-stepping control technique is applied for discrete time system. The bifurcation analysis is also furnished for the model of mosquito life cycle. The new technique is applied in the mosquito life cycle model and its results are examined through MATLAB

Dynamical properties of a modified chaotic Colpitts oscillator with triangular wave non-linearity

The purpose of this paper is to introduce a new chaotic oscillator. Although different chaotic systems have been formulated by earlier researchers, only a few chaotic systems exhibit chaotic behaviour. In this work, a new chaotic system with chaotic attractor is introduced for triangular wave non-linearity. It is worth noting that this striking phenomenon rarely occurs in respect of chaotic systems. The system proposed in this paper has been realized with numerical simulation. The results emanating from the numerical simulation indicate the feasibility of the proposed chaotic system. More over, chaos control, stability, diffusion and synchronization of such a system have been dealt with

Impact of Additional Chromosomal Aberrations on the Disease Progression of Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia

The emergence of additional chromosomal abnormalities (ACAs) in Philadelphia chromosome/BCR-ABL1 positive chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), is considered to be a feature of disease evolution. However, their frequency of incidence, impact on prognosis and treatment response effect in CML is not conclusive. In the present study, we performed a chromosome analysis of 489 patients in different clinical stages of CML, using conventional GTG-banding, Fluorescent in situ Hybridization and Spectral Karyotyping. Among the de novo CP cases, ACAs were observed in 30 patients (10.20%) with lowest incidence, followed by IM resistant CP (16.66%) whereas in AP and BC, the occurrence of ACAs were higher, and was about 40.63 and 50.98%, respectively. The frequency of occurrence of ACAs were compared between the study groups and it was found that the incidence of ACAs was higher in BC compared to de novo and IM resistant CP cases. Likewise, it was higher in AP patients when compared between de novo and IM resistant CP cases, mirroring the fact of cytogenetic evolution with disease progression in CML. In addition, we observed 10 novel and 10 rare chromosomal aberrations among the study subjects. This study pinpoints the fact that the genome of advanced phase patients was highly unstable, and this environment of genomic instability is responsible for the high occurrence of ACAs. Treatment response analysis revealed that compared to initial phases, ACAs were associated with an adverse prognostic effect during the progressive stages of CML. This study further portrayed the cytogenetic mechanism of disease evolution in CML

Minimal information for studies of extracellular vesicles (MISEV2023): From basic to advanced approaches

Extracellular vesicles (EVs), through their complex cargo, can reflect the state of their cell of origin and change the functions and phenotypes of other cells. These features indicate strong biomarker and therapeutic potential and have generated broad interest, as evidenced by the steady year-on-year increase in the numbers of scientific publications about EVs. Important advances have been made in EV metrology and in understanding and applying EV biology. However, hurdles remain to realising the potential of EVs in domains ranging from basic biology to clinical applications due to challenges in EV nomenclature, separation from non-vesicular extracellular particles, characterisation and functional studies. To address the challenges and opportunities in this rapidly evolving field, the International Society for Extracellular Vesicles (ISEV) updates its 'Minimal Information for Studies of Extracellular Vesicles', which was first published in 2014 and then in 2018 as MISEV2014 and MISEV2018, respectively. The goal of the current document, MISEV2023, is to provide researchers with an updated snapshot of available approaches and their advantages and limitations for production, separation and characterisation of EVs from multiple sources, including cell culture, body fluids and solid tissues. In addition to presenting the latest state of the art in basic principles of EV research, this document also covers advanced techniques and approaches that are currently expanding the boundaries of the field. MISEV2023 also includes new sections on EV release and uptake and a brief discussion of in vivo approaches to study EVs. Compiling feedback from ISEV expert task forces and more than 1000 researchers, this document conveys the current state of EV research to facilitate robust scientific discoveries and move the field forward even more rapidly

Novel water soluble dendrimer nanocarrier for enhanced photodynamic efficacy of protoporphyrin Ⅸ

The present study describes the development and evaluation of a novel biocompatible dendrimer-based nano drug delivery system which is readily soluble in water prepared by condensing Phloroglucinol and Succinic Acid (PGSA) and could efficiently encapsulate a well known hydrophobic photodynamic therapy (PDT) agent, protoporphyrin Ⅸ (PpⅨ). The (dark and photo) cytotoxicity of the PGSA-PpⅨ (dendrimer-drug) formulation towards Dalton Lymphoma Ascites (DLA) cancer cell lines upon visible light treatment is reported and evaluated the cytotoxic Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) generation efficiency of the Protoporphyrin Ⅸ in free and dendrimer encapsulated forms. The in vitro toxicity demonstrated by PpⅨ loaded PGSA dendrimer nanoformulation, on DLA cells reveals that this novel PGSA nanocarrier reduces the toxic nature of PpⅨ when compared to free PpⅨ without light treatment which satisfy the aim of our study. On the other hand, treatment of DLA cells with PGSA dendrimer formulation in combination with light resulted in significant enhancement in therapeutic efficacy of the PDT agent, PpⅨ
