Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the oldest disease known to humanity and among deadliest epidemics in top 10 causes death worldwide. The incidence tuberculosis India has dramatically increased contributing it Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). Various diagnostic methods are available for detection tubercular bacilli. Only full proof criteria diagnosis TB demonstrate bacilli from affected tissue. T...

The impacts of warming seas on the frequency and severity of bleaching events are well documented, but the potential for different Symbiodinium types to enhance the physiological tolerance of reef corals is not well understood. Here we compare the functionality and physiological properties of juvenile corals when experimentally infected with one of two homologous Symbiodinium types and exposed ...

Titanium dioxide exhibits photocatalytic properties under ultraviolet (UV) irradiation. In this study, an environmentally friendly, fast and efficient technique for bleaching cotton fabrics is presented, utilising the property of TiO2. Raw fabric samples were treated with TiO2-containing TiO2-free treatment solutions (hydrogen peroxide sodium hydroxide) UV irradiation in order to bleach samples...

To investigate whether scotopic sensitivity is set locally or in neural "pools", we have tested the spatial variation in sensitivity after bleaching with gratings using 3 different methods. One experiment circumvented the influence of involuntary eye movements by deliberately randomizing the horizontal position of a fine test line on the area bleached by the vertical gratings. The spatial varia...

UNLABELLED Spectrophotometric evaluation of color changes of Bleach-shade resin-based composites after staining and bleaching. AIM The aim of this study was to evaluate the color stability of two commercially available bleach-shade resin composites (RC) after exposure to 3 storage solutions and the effect of 3 bleaching agents on the color stability and stain removal from stained RC. MATERI...
