    Abstract There is apprehension that India is not testing enough, and therefore the number of COVID-19 affected cases and deaths is less in India. In this short note, we analyze what the outcome may look like if India was to test as is done in some developed countries. Although the numbers increase many folds, we argue eventually India may not see that many increases in the number of COVID-19 affected people and related death. India has a much younger population in comparison to the developed world. The tropical weather is an added advantage.

    Abstract Bio-cementation of natural sand is a prospective solution to improve their engineering properties. The enhancement of strength and low-strain shear modulus is considered to be of high engineering significance for improvement in the performance of sand under both static and dynamic loading. In the present study, bio-cementation effects of bacillus Sporosarcina pasteurii bacteria on standard Ennore sand of India are studied at the microstructure level through scanning electron microscope (SEM) investigation considering microbial-induced calcite precipitation (MICP) technique. The crystallographic structure of the bio-cemented sand is reported through X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses. Stress–strain behaviour and improvement in the strength of bio-cemented sand with different pore volumes of cementation solution have been investigated through unconfined compression strength (UCS) testing. Finally, the shear wave velocity values of the bio-cemented sand are assessed through bender element testing for different confining pressures, and low-strain shear modulus values have arrived. The study is believed to be helpful in the quantification of improvement of strength and low-strain shear modulus values of bio-cemented sand.

    Abstract The RP-HPLC based comparative quantification of some important redox sensitive phenolic acids and flavonoids revealed overall greater elicitation of chalcone synthase related flavonoid biosynthetic pathway, concomitant with the greater utilization of cinnamic acid for the seedlings of the salinity resistant rice cultivar Patnai as compared to susceptible cultivar IR29 grown under post imbibitional salinity stress (PISS). When compared, the cultivar Patnai further exhibited significantly better antioxidant-coupled redox-regulation by up regulating ascorbate-glutathione pathway and reducing the expression of oxidative deterioration under PISS as compared to its counterpart, the cultivar IR29. A model for redox homeostasis in which complementation of action of ROS scavenging secondary metabolites with enzymatic antioxidant defense at metabolic interface necessary for maintenance of the redox homeostasis to combat salinity stress has been proposed.

    Abstract The Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) is an important trading partner for India. Through its Act East Policy, India seeks deeper economic integration with ASEAN. In this article, we investigate the pattern of trade between India and ASEAN, using comparative advantage by country (CAC) and market comparative advantage (MCA) as criteria, which are more appropriate measures for showing comparative advantage in a specific market. These measures indicate some major Indian exports to ASEAN are not competitive. When domestic industries are not competitive, governments protect them through tariffs and non-tariff barriers, which act counter to deeper economic integration. We also identify the sectors in which India has the potential to become competitive but is not because of distortionary domestic policy measures. These domestic constraints prohibit Indian firms from participating in the ASEAN supply chain network, an important factor in developing deeper economic integration. Two such sectors—namely aluminium automotive components and the ready-made garment industry—are examined as case studies. Notwithstanding these distortionary policy measures, India still offers a bigger market to do business. The ability to supply lower cost chemicals and affordable pharmaceutical products at the time of COVID-19 is an added plus.

    Abstract With rapidly growing knowledge in bioinformatics related to peptides and proteins, amino acid-based drug-design strategies have recently gained importance in pharmaceutics. In the past, peptide-based biomedicines were not widely used due to the associated severe physiological problems, such as low selectivity and rapid degradation in biological systems. However, various interesting peptide-based therapeutics combined with drug-delivery systems have recently emerged. Many of these candidates have been developed for anticancer therapy that requires precisely targeted effects and low toxicity. These research trends have become more diverse and complex owing to nanomedicine and antibody-drug conjugates (ADC), showing excellent therapeutic efficacy. Various newly developed peptide-drug conjugates (PDC), peptide-based nanoparticles, and prodrugs could represent a promising therapeutic strategy for patients. In this review, we provide valuable insights into rational drug design and development for future pharmaceutics.
