    Abstract Durability and affordability are two main reasons for the widespread consumption of plastic in the world. However, the inability of these materials to undergo degradation has become a significant threat to the environment and human health To address this issue, bioplastics have emerged as a promising alternative. Bioplastics are obtained from renewable and sustainable biomass and have a lower carbon footprint and emit fewer greenhouse gases than petroleum-based plastics. The use of these bioplastics sourced from renewable biomass can also reduce the dependency on fossil fuels, which are limited in availability. This review provides an elaborate comparison of biodegradation rates of potential bioplastics in soil from various sources such as biomass, microorganisms, and monomers. These bioplastics show great potential as a replacement for conventional plastics due to their biodegradable and diverse properties.

    Abstract Introduction: The recent surge in joint replacement surgeries in India, particularly total knee and hip replacements, is notable. The majority of patients undergoing these procedures suffered from knee osteoarthritis or femoral head avascular necrosis. However, this increase in joint replacements has also led to a rise in periprosthetic joint infections (PJI), a severe and costly complication. PJI is responsible for 25% of total knee arthroplasty failures and 15% of total hip arthroplasty failures. Various risk factors, such as diabetes, fractures, and arthritis, are associated with PJI development. Bacterial infections, notably Staphylococcus species, are the primary cause of PJI, but rare fungal infections are often caused by Candida and Aspergillus. There is a lack of clinical trials and limited knowledge about the prevalence and treatment of fungal PJIs.
    Case report: This report presents a unique case of delayed PJI caused by Candida albicans in an otherwise healthy patient.
    Conclusion: This case report emphasizes the need for further research and standardized treatment guidelines. Treatment typically involves a two-stage revision with extended antifungal therapy. The optimal duration of antifungal treatment remains uncertain.

    Abstract Rapid diagnosis of coronavirus disease COVID-19 is challenging in developing countries due to diverse clinical presentations and limited healthcare infrastructure. Biosensors hold immense prospects for diagnosis of the disease. Two approaches are proposed: the first involves measurement of host immune response and second, the detection of viruses or viral cell surface proteins using suitable bioreceptors. The article provides an overview of evanescent wave absorbance and localized surface plasmon resonance-based optic fiber platform for potential screening of COVID-19.

    Abstract β-Lactam antibiotics such as penicillins and cephalosporins are extensively used for human infection therapy. Consistent unintended exposure to these antibiotics via food and water is known to promote antibiotic-resistant bacterial pathogenesis with high morbidity and mortality in humans. An optical enzymatic biosensor for rapid and point-of-use detection of these antibiotics in food and water has been developed and tested. Enzymatic hydrolysis of β-lactams, on the electroactive polyaniline nanofibers, altered the polymeric backbone of the nanofibers, from emeraldine base form to emeraldine salt, which was measured as an increase in evanescent wave absorbance at 435 nm. The sensors were calibrated by spiking antibiotic-free milk with ceftazidime (as a model β-lactam analyte) in a linear range of 0.36-3600 nM (

    Abstract The unobtrusive cold environmental temperature can be linked to the development of cancer. This study, for the first time, envisaged cold stress-mediated induction of a zinc finger protein 726 (ZNF726) in breast cancer. However, the role of ZNF726 in tumorigenesis has not been defined. This study investigated the putative role of ZNF726 in breast cancer tumorigenic potency. Gene expression analysis using multifactorial cancer databases predicted overexpression of ZNF726 in various cancers, including breast cancer. Experimental observations found that malignant breast tissues and highly aggressive MDA-MB-231 cells showed an elevated ZNF726 expression as compared to benign and luminal A type (MCF-7), respectively. Furthermore, ZNF726 silencing decreased breast cancer cell proliferation, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and invasion accompanied by the inhibition of colony-forming ability. Concordantly, ZNF726 overexpression significantly demonstrated opposite outcomes than ZNF726 knockdown. Taken together, our findings propose cold-inducible ZNF726 as a functional oncogene demonstrating its prominent role in facilitating breast tumorigenesis. An inverse correlation between environmental temperature and total serum cholesterol was observed in the previous study. Furthermore, experimental outcomes illustrate that cold stress elevated cholesterol content hinting at the involvement of the cholesterol regulatory pathway in cold-induced ZNF726 gene regulation. This observation was bolstered by a positive correlation between the expression of cholesterol-regulatory genes and ZNF726. Exogenous cholesterol treatment elevated ZNF726 transcript levels while knockdown of ZNF726 decreased the cholesterol content via downregulating various cholesterol regulatory gene expressions (e.g., SREBF1/2, HMGCoR, LDLR). Moreover, an underlying mechanism supporting cold-driven tumorigenesis is proposed through interdependent regulation of cholesterol regulatory pathway and cold-inducible ZNF726 expression.

    Abstract Mercury is a diversely bioaccumulating heavy metal pollutant toxic to all life forms. In this work, an optical biosensor has been developed and calibrated for universal detection and quantification of mercuric ions, in the range 0.1-540 parts per billion, in biological and environmental samples. Chitosan capped gold nanoparticles on bovine serum albumin are proposed as an ultrasensitive plasmonic mercury receptor on U-bend optical fiber platform. The sensor was calibrated and tested with tap water, sewage contaminated water, marine water, long lived sea fish tissue, fossil fuel fly ash contaminated soil and vegetable samples. The sensor performance was validated with real samples inherently containing mercury. Overall standard error of less than 15% and a coefficient of variation less than 12% (n = 3) was found across all samples, indicating good fitness for diverse usage. Experimentally determined limit of detection of mercuric ions was 0.1 parts per billion in tap water (twenty times lesser than the Environment protection agency limit of 2 parts per billion in drinking water) and 0.2 parts per billion in sea fish and vegetable samples with negligible cross sensitivity towards other metal ions.
