An important area of research in nanotechnology deals with the synthesis of nanoparticles of different chemical compositions,sizes and controlled monodispersity.Currently,there is a growing need to develop environmentally benign nanoparticle synthesis in which no toxic chemicals are used in the synthesis protocol.Palladium nanoparticles(Pd Np) are of interest because of their catalytic properties and affinity for hydrogen.Our protocol for the phyto-synthesis of Pd Np under moderate p H and room temperature offers a new means to develop environmentally benign nanoparticles.Solanum trilobatum is enlightened in our present study as it is enriched with phytochemicals to reduce palladium chloride ions.Poly MVA a dietary supplement based on the nontoxic chemotherapeutic lipoic acid-palladium complex(LA-Pd) is been hypothesized as the new paradigm of cancer therapy.Hence forth we successfully conjugated lipoic acid(S-Pd Np-LA) and vitamins(S-Pd Np-Vitamin-LA) to palladium nanoparticles synthesised from Solanum trilobatum leaf extract.These nanoparticles(S-Pd Np,S-Pd Np-LA,S-Pd Np-Vitamin-LA) were characterized with UV-Vis Spectroscopy,SEM and FTIR analysis,which revealed that S-Pd Np are polydisperse and of different morphologies ranging from 60?70 nm(S-Pd Np),65?80 nm(S-Pd Np-LA) and 75?100 nm(S-Pd Np-Vitamin-LA) in size. 展开更多

To investigate the cytotoxic activity of actinomycete isolated from marine sediment. Methods: In the present study the DNA was isolated and the ITS region of 16s rRNA was amplified by polymerase chain reaction, using two universal bacterial primers, 1492R (5′-GGTTACCTTGTTAC GACTT-3′) and Eubac27F (5′-AGAGTTTGATCCTGGCTC AG-3′). The amplified products were purified using TIANgel mini purification kit, ligated to MD18-T simple vector (TaKaRa), and transformed into competent cells of Escherichia coli DH5α. 16S rRNA gene fragment was sequenced using forward primer M13F (-47) and reverse primer M13R (-48). Blast search sequence similarity was found against the existing non-redundant nucleotide sequence database thus, identified as Streptomyces sp SU, Streptomyces rubralavandulae strain SU1, Streptomyces cacaoi strain SU2, Streptomyces cavourensis strain SU3, Streptomyces avidinii strain SU4, Streptomyces globisporus strain SU5, Streptomyces variabilis strain SU6, Streptomycescoelicolor strain SU 7. Among the eight identified isolates, one actinomycete Streptomyces avidinii strain SU4 was selected for further study. Results: Crude extract of the actinomycete isolate exhibited IC50 in 64.5 μg against Hep-2 cell line, 250 μg in VERO cell line. This value is very close to the criteria of cytotoxicity activity for the crude extracts, as established by the American National Cancer Institute (NCI) is in IC50 < 30 μg /mL. The GC MS analysis showed that the active principle might be 1,2-benzenedicarboxylic acid, bis(2-methylpropyl) ester (12.17%), isooctyl phthalate (15.29%) with the retention time 15.642 and 21.612, respectively. Conclusions: This study clearly proves that the marine sediment derived actinomycetes with bioactive metabolites can be expected to provide high quality biological material for high throughout biochemical and anticancer screening programs. These results help us to conclude that the potential of using metabolic engineering and post genomic approaches to isolate more bioactive compounds and make their possible commercial application is not far off. 展开更多

Cells of organ systems are endowed with a relatively similar genome while epigenome niches keep varying chronologically and defined explicitly in the respective tissues.The genome of an individual is always influenced by parental,embryonic,tissue-specific,and environmental epigenomes and the same must have been the possible reason for invariable inquiries relating to familial,environmental and life style patterns in the preliminary investigations of diabetic complications.Unprecedented methylation of lysine residues of histones and cytosines of CpG islands of promoter DNA impede the transcription of genes and homocysteine is the metabolic key player of methyl groups.Gck and COX7A1 are the 2 examples in the present review to elucidate the epigenetic influence on the onset of diabetes.miRNAs are additional promising cellular components influencing both at transcriptional and translational levels and promoting either in favour or against(i.e.,feed back) TFs,signaling factors and proteins through their pliotropic effects and thus are reported to regulate cellular physiology.miR-124a and miR-9 are primarily endemic to nervous tissue and they are now being exploited in islets for their function in executing exocytosis of insulin,which of course is one of the fundamental canons of diabetes.miR-375 persuades beta cells for glucose-induced insulin gene expression.The current approach to evaluate the constellation of genes and their products involved in diabetes in huge number of samples through GWA studies may unravel intricacies involved in the management of diabetes and its associated consequences. 展开更多

In this study, the effect of doping hexanol into biodiesel which is from neat cashew nut shell biodiesel oil on the emissions and the performance characteristics was studied in a constant speed diesel engine. The main purpose of this work is to reduce various emissions and also to improve the performance of the diesel engine when fueled with blends of hexanol and neat cashew nut shell biodiesel. Cashew nut shell oil is not edible, and hence it can be used as a viable alternative to diesel.Cashew nut shell biodiesel is prepared by conventional transesterification. Hexanol with 99.2% purity was employed as an oxygenated additive. Experimental studies were conducted by fueling diesel as a baseline and by fueling hexanol and neat cashew nut shell biodiesel mixture. A fuel comprising 10%(by volume) of hexanol and 90%(by volume) neat cashew nut shell biodiesel was referred to as CNSBD900 H100 and fuel comprising 20%(by volume) of hexanol and 80%(by volume)of neat cashew nut shell biodiesel was referred to as CNSBD800 H200. This study also investigated the possibility of using pure biofuel in an unmodified naturally aspirated diesel engine. The outcome of this study showed that adding hexanol at10% and 20%(by volume) to cashew nut shell biodiesel results in a reduction in emissions. In addition, a significant improvement in brake thermal efficiency and reduction in brake-specific fuel consumptions were achieved. Hence, it could be concluded that hexanol could be a viable and promising additive for improving the drawbacks of biodiesel when it was used to fuel an unmodified diesel engine. 展开更多

Biodiesel obtained from mustard seed is found to be a promising alternative for petroleum diesel fuel owing to its similarity in physical and chemical properties. In this work, TiO2nano-fluid which acts as an oxygen buffer during combustion was added to mustard oil biodiesel(MOBD) to study its effect on emission characteristics of MOBD. TiO2nano-fluid can provide high surface energy during the course of combustion and reduces the limitations of neat biodiesel. A four-stroke, multi-cylinder,water-cooled, diesel engine was used in the experiments and was fueled with diesel, neat MOBD and MOBD with TiO2nanoparticles at 100 ppm(MOBDT100), 200 ppm(MOBDT200) and 300 ppm(MOBDT300). Experimental results revealed that the TiO2nanoparticles had positive effect on the emission characteristics of MOBD as it acted as an oxidation buffer. MOBDT300 showed a reduction in HC, CO and smoke emissions as compared to pure MOBD.In addition, NOxemissions were also reduced by the catalytic activity of the TiO2nanoparticles which reduce the peak combustion temperature. Therefore, TiO2nano-fluid had a positive effect on reducing the emissions associated with neat biodiesel. 展开更多

One of the fast-growing disease affecting women’s health seriously is breast cancer.It is highly essential to identify and detect breast cancer in the earlier stage.This paper used a novel advanced methodology than machine learning algorithms such as Deep learning algorithms to classify breast cancer accurately.Deep learning algorithms are fully automatic in learning,extracting,and classifying the features and are highly suitable for any image,from natural to medical images.Existing methods focused on using various conventional and machine learning methods for processing natural and medical images.It is inadequate for the image where the coarse structure matters most.Most of the input images are downscaled,where it is impossible to fetch all the hidden details to reach accuracy in classification.Whereas deep learning algorithms are high efficiency,fully automatic,have more learning capability using more hidden layers,fetch as much as possible hidden information from the input images,and provide an accurate prediction.Hence this paper uses AlexNet from a deep convolution neural network for classifying breast cancer in mammogram images.The performance of the proposed convolution network structure is evaluated by comparing it with the existing algorithms. 展开更多

An attempt has been made with overlaying of stain-less steel on mild steel by the technique of friction surfacing. This investigation elaborates the excellence acquired by different combination of the process parameters used in friction surfacing specifically traverse speed of the cross slide, speed of rotation of the spindle and the uniaxial compressive load. Excellent overlaying has been obtained amongst the chosen materials. To which, the coating can be done with various set of process parameters. It has been observed that the bond strength of the coating was found to be at a maximum of 502 MPa by ram tensile test.Based upon this results the surface methodology was characterized with scanning electron microscope.For authenticating the results, the coated specimen was subjected to salt spray test. The bonding microstructure was characterized using optical microscopy and X-ray diffraction. Corrosion resistance of surfaced coatings was found to be more inferior to that of mechtrode material and greater with the substrate. 展开更多

In this study, coir pith was composted with different agro industrial by products such as cow dung, vegetable market waste, poultry waste and microbial consortium. The different treatment combinations used in the present study were Control, T1 (Coir pith + Cow dung + Vegetable market waste + Poultry waste + mixed microbial culture (Trichoderma viridae + Pleurotus sajar caju), T2 (Coir pith + Vegetable market waste + Poultry waste + Tank slit + Mixed microbial culture) and T3 (Coir pith + Cow dung + poultry waste + tank slit + mixed microbial culture). At the end of 12th week, in the treatment T1, C: N ratio of 21.8:1 was observed in the composted coir pith sample. Highest P content of 0.47% and K content of 1.2% and the least Cellulose and Lignin contents of 22.8% and 10.03% were recorded in the T1 treatment after a composting period of 12 weeks. Highest pH of 7.4 was observed in the treatment T3, this was followed by T1 (7.2) treatment. 展开更多

Adding of the third element to the metal matrix make the composite hybrid. This paper presents the study on the surface roughness characteristics of a hybrid aluminium metal matrix (Al6061-SiC-Al2O3) composites. The experimental studies were carried out on a lathe. The composites were prepared using the liquid metallurgy technique, in which 3, 6 and 9 wt % of particulates SiC and Al2O3 were dispersed in the base matrix. The obtained cast composites were carefully machined. The characteristics that influence the surface roughness such as feed rate, depth of cut and cutting speed were studied, which made the analysis come to a conclusion that the surface roughness is increases with the increase of feed rate and it reduces the surface roughness with the increase of cutting speed. 展开更多
