Thermophysical Analysis of Sulfamerazine Sodium and Sulfadiazine Sodium in Water and Aqueous Glyceline: Concentration- and Temperature-Dependent Molecular Interactions

Abstract A systematic thermophysical investigation of sulfamerazine sodium (SMR-Na) and sulfadiazine sodium (SDZ-Na) in water and aqueous glyceline (choline chloride: glycerol, 1:2) was carried out over the temperature range 293.15–318.15 K. Experimental measurements of density,...

Automated mapping and multi-decadal changes in glacial lakes in the Upper Indus Sub-Basin, Western Himalaya, using Google Earth Engine

The Western Himalayan Glacial lakes are undergoing rapid transformation as a result of intensified glacier retreat driven by changing climatic conditions, increasing the likelihood of glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs). This study conducts an automated, multi-decadal analysis o...

Systematic review of ethical perception in online retailing: a comparison of Eastern and Western perspectives

Purpose This systematic literature review aims to examine consumers’ ethical perceptions in online retailing by comparing Eastern and Western perspectives and explaining how these differences influence consumer repurchase intention. Design/methodology/approach Following the PRISM...

Measurements of the production of W$$^{\pm }$$ and Z$$^0$$ bosons in pp collisions at $$\sqrt{s} = 13$$ TeV

Abstract Measurements of the production of the W $$^{\pm }$$ ± and Z $$^0$$ 0 bosons at midrapidity in pp collisions at $$\sqrt{s} = 13$$ s = 13 TeV with ALICE at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are presented. The W $$^{\pm }$$ ± and Z $$^0$$ 0 bosons are detected via their (di)e...

Green and Reusable Ni@AC-IL-Al2O3 Nanocatalyst for Efficient A3 Coupling, Nitroarenes Reduction, Zeta Potential Analysis, and Selective Adsorption of Cationic Dyes

Abstract A major challenge in sustainable heterogeneous catalysis is the effective utilization of low-cost waste resources without compromising catalytic activity, stability, and recyclability. Herein, we report the rational development of a biomass-derived hierarchical nanocatal...

Bionomics of insect pollinators and their interaction with host trees in the orchards of Doda, Indian Himalayas

Abstract Insect-mediated pollination is critical to the reproductive success of apple ( Malus domestica ) and apricot ( Prunus armeniaca ), the two principal cash crops sustaining rural livelihoods in the Himalayan district of Doda, Jammu and Kashmir. Despite this dependence, pol...

Ethnobotanical wealth of the Indian Himalaya: a synthesis of useful species, traditional knowledge and conservation priorities

The Himalaya constitutes one of the significant repositories of traditional plant knowledge maintained by indigenous communities over centuries. Its systematic synthesis is critical for conservation, drug discovery, and reversing loss of biocultural heritage. This study aimed to...

Self-reported aggressiveness does not follow facial masculinization in diverse South Asian populations

Abstract It has been suggested that sexually dimorphic facial traits are related to competitive behavior and aggression, but empirical evidence remains inconsistent and is based on a small number of populations and culturally homogeneous samples. We have combined geometric morpho...

Optical properties evaluation of novel lead-free CsCu2Cl2I in different solvents to investigate solvatochromism behaviour

In this work, cesium iodide and copper chloride were dissolved in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) to make a novel double halide lead-free metal halide perovskite (DH-LFP), i.e., CsCu 2 Cl 2 I. This was done at room temperature using an anti-solvent precipitation method. Afterwards, p...

Tracking the baryon number with nuclear collisions

Baryon quantum number is found to be conserved since baryogenesis in the early Universe. Conventionally, each fractionally charged valence quark is understood to carry one-third of a baryon number. An alternative hypothesis posits that baryon number is instead carried by a baryon...

Iron–Sulfur Clusters Coordinated by Four Conserved Cysteine Residues in Proteins: Structural Diversity and Redox Function

Protein‐bound iron–sulfur ([Fe–S]) clusters are ubiquitous and structurally diverse cofactors in biological systems, performing a wide range of biochemical functions. These [Fe–S] clusters are most commonly coordinated by cysteine residues, within defined protein scaffolds, which...

A Discrete Dislocation Dynamics Study of Prior Particle Boundary Effects in Ni-based Superalloys

Abstract Ni-based superalloys produced via powder metallurgy (PM) undergo hot isostatic pressing (HIP) and subsequent forming operations, during which prior particle boundaries (PPBs) are formed and only partially eliminated. The residual PPB clusters strongly influence the mecha...
