    Abstract Background & objectives: Nanotechnology, an emerging field, has acquired considerable attention for the control of vectors. The present study aimed to synthesize, characterize copper sulfide- and eucalyptus oil-based hybrid nanoemulsions and investigate their larvicidal potential against Aedes aegypti by studying larvicidal bioassay, morphological aberrations, histopathological alterations, biochemical analysis and evaluation of risk assessment in non-target organisms.
    Methods: Hybrid nanoemulsions were prepared by mixing aqueous copper sulfide nanoparticles (CuSNPs) with non-polar eucalyptus oil in five ratios (1:1, 1:2, 1:3, 1:4 and 1:5) by sonication, screened and characterized using Transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Larvicidal activity was recorded and toxicity values were calculated by log-probit method. Morphological, histological and biochemical changes were examined in Aedes aegypti larvae after treatment. Nanohybrids were also tested under simulated conditions and against non-target organism.
    Results: The nanohybrid ratio of 1:5 was found to be stable after thermodynamic stability tests. TEM studies revealed average size of 90±7.90 nm with globular shape. LC
    Interpretation & conclusion: Copper sulfide based hybrid nanoemulsions were found to show efficient larvicidal property which can be used for the formulation of ecofriendly bio-larvicide against Aedes aegypti.

    Abstract Objective: This study explored the perceived benefits, barriers, and recommendations of telerehabilitation for musculoskeletal disorders among physiotherapists in Malaysia.
    Methods: This study employed an exploratory qualitative methodology to gather the perceptions of government-employed physiotherapists in Malaysia regarding the benefits, barriers, and recommendations for telerehabilitation in treating musculoskeletal disorders. The researchers conducted semistructured focus group discussions (FGDs) via Google Meet, which were recorded, transcribed, and analyzed using thematic analysis.
    Results: Five FGDs were conducted with 24 participants, 37.5% of whom had prior experience with telerehabilitation. The data analysis returned three main themes: (1) perceived benefits, (2) barriers, and (3) recommendations. Four subthemes were derived from perceived benefits: (1a) saving time and money, (1b) convenience, (1c) clients responsible for their treatment, and (1d) alternatives for infectious diseases. Perceived barriers revealed three subthemes: (2a) technology, (2b) organization, and (2c) personal barriers. Finally, participants provided recommendations for improving telerehabilitation services, including training programs to facilitate greater acceptance of this modality.
    Conclusion: The findings of this study offer crucial insights into the evolving landscape of telerehabilitation in Malaysia. These findings revealed a greater prevalence of barriers to enablers among Malaysian physiotherapists, potentially influenced by varying experience levels. Despite the prevailing lack of experience among participants, this research underscores the significance of identifying barriers and enablers in implementing telerehabilitation with participants offering recommendations for integrating telerehabilitation into their practices. This study provides clear insights and a roadmap for stakeholders aiming to shape the future of telerehabilitation among physiotherapists in Malaysia.

    Abstract This study investigated the effects of physical modification (annealing and autoclaving) on functional, structure and thermal properties of jackfruit seed starch. The amylose, amylopectin, morphological properties, functional group identification, crystalline behavior, viscosity and thermal properties of modified jackfruit seed starch were analyzed. Results showed that compared with the native starch, amylose content of annealed jackfruit seed starch increased (from 30.68% to 32.39%) while after autoclaving it was decreased (from 30.68% to 25.44%). There were no changes in the X‐ray diffraction patterns of annealed starches while in autoclaving‐cooling treatment, a new peak appeared, causing the crystalline change in structure of starch from A‐type to B‐type. DSC data revealed that thermal properties of jackfruit seed starches improved after both annealing and autoclaving‐cooling treatments. This paper can potentially be used as a theoretical reference to prompt more investigations for the extensive utilization of jackfruit seed starches in the food and other industries. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: Physically modified jackfruit seed starch with improved functionality makes the starch well suitable for various food applications due to changes in solubility, water absorption, and swelling ability. These modified starches can be potentially used during the preparation of noodles, doughs, baked products, pie‐fillings, soups, and sausages and will also remove the environmental burden and food waste.

    Abstract Jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus) seeds are a byproduct of processing while they have an appreciable amount of starch. The current study is based on the isolation and characterization of starches from these seeds to check the suitability in terms of functional, structural, and pasting properties for determining its vital utilization. Therefore, five jackfruit cultivars (Hadiyava, Khaja, Safeda, Katahri, and Bhadaiya) are selected for the study. The amylose content, granule size, pasting properties, and relative crystallinity significantly (p < 0.05) vary in all selected five cultivars. With the lowest amylose values, Safeda cultivar starch reports higher absorption of oil and water (190.30% and 226.68%, respectively), solubility, swelling power, peak, trough, and final viscosity compared to the other starches. X‐ray diffraction results show that all five starches show a typical A‐type (15°, 17°–18°, and 23°) pattern. The first principal component (40.98%) is highly correlated with starch amylopectin content, physical properties, peak temperature, and swelling power.

    Abstract Jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus) seed is a rich source of starch (about 80-85% dry basis) and considered as byproduct of food so, it has the potential to be a source for commercial production of starch. The search for new starch sources has been motivated by following main reasons: growing demand of market, industry demand for novel starches with different structural, physicochemical, and functional properties than the traditional ones and food supply to meet the increase of world population. Jackfruit belongs to genera Artocarpus, which is native of Western Ghats of India, which contains ample amount of starch that could be utilized in various food developments. As jackfruit seed starches showed higher amount of resistant starch (about 75%) better swelling and water absorption capacity, and high gelatinization temperature (76-88 °C). This review summarizes the recently published research on the composition, physicochemical, functional properties, structure, and morphology of jackfruit seed starches. The effect of different processing on the properties of starch and the study provides suggestions for needed research to improve the thoroughly exploitation of jackfruit seed starch in the food industry.

    Abstract HLA matching improves long-term outcomes of kidney transplantation, yet implementation challenges persist, particularly within the African American (Black) patient demographic due to donor scarcity. Consequently, kidney survival rates among Black patients significantly lag behind those of other racial groups. A refined matching scheme holds promise for improving kidney survival, with prioritized matching for Black patients potentially bolstering rates of HLA-matched transplants. To facilitate quantity, quality and equity in kidney transplants, we propose two matching algorithms based on quantification of HLA immunogenicity using the hydrophobic mismatch score (HMS) for prospective transplants. We mined the national transplant patient database (SRTR) for a diverse group of donors and recipients with known racial backgrounds. Additionally, we use novel methods to infer survival assessment in the simulated transplants generated by our matching algorithms, in the absence of actual target outcomes, utilizing modified unsupervised clustering techniques. Our allocation algorithms demonstrated the ability to match 87.7% of Black and 86.1% of White recipients under the HLA immunogenicity threshold of 10. Notably, at the lowest HMS threshold of 0, 4.4% of Black and 12.1% of White recipients were matched, a marked increase from the 1.8% and 6.6% matched under the prevailing allocation scheme. Furthermore, our allocation algorithms yielded similar or improved survival rates, as illustrated by Kaplan-Meier (KM) curves, and enhanced survival prediction accuracy, evidenced by C-indices and Integrated Brier Scores.
