The fossil-based emissions and effluents from the textile wet processing units have acute implications on environment human wellbeing. Therefore, a paradigm shift towards sustainable alternative materials technology has become imperative. Thus, overview herein emphasizes chemistry that ubiquitously exists to propel ecological with herbal biomaterials. review paper succinctly accentuates efficie...

Most studies on kidney disease have relied on classic experimental studies in mice and rats or clinical studies in humans. From such studies much understanding of the physiology and pathophysiology of kidney disease has been obtained. However, breakthroughs in the prevention and treatment of kidney diseases have been relatively few, and new approaches to fight kidney disease are needed. Here we...

Biomimicry (from bio,meaning life and mimics,meaning to imitate) is the examination of nature,its model,system,process and element and then imitate these is an appropriate manner to solve human problems. Biomechanics is the study of the structure and function of biological systems such as humans, animals, plants, organs, and cells by means of the methods of mechanics. In this paper ,the behavio...

Graphene is the strongest and stiffest material ever identified and the best electrical conductor known to date, making it an ideal candidate for constructing nanocomposites used in flexible energy devices. However, it remains a great challenge to assemble graphene nanosheets into macro-sized high-performance nanocomposites in practical applications of flexible energy devices using traditional ...

Polymer vesicles, or polymersomes, are being widely explored as synthetic analogs of lipid vesicles based on their stability, robustness, barrier properties, chemical versatility and tunable physical characteristics. Typical methods used to prepare giant-sized (> 4 µm) vesicles, however, are both time and labor intensive, yielding low numbers of intact polymersomes. Here, we present for the fir...

Endogenous microparticles (MPs) were systematically profiled during the time course of self-limited inflammation. Precursors for specialized proresolving lipid mediators were identified in MPs from inflammatory exudates using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry-based metabolomics. Hence, we postulated that formation of anti-inflammatory and proresolving lipid mediators could underlie...

In many fields of science human observers have provided verbal descriptions and explanations of various systems. A formal mathematical model is indispensable when we wish to rigorously analyze these systems. In this chapter, we survey some recent results on transforming verbal descriptions into mathematical models using fuzzy modeling. This is a simple and direct approach that offers a unique a...
