The 500 g of Teak, Pterocarpus macrocarpus, and Cratoxylum Formosum Charcoal were used according to Completely Randomized Design (CRD). The three treatments included T1 = teak charcoal, T2 = Pterocarpus macrocarpus charcoal, and T3 = Cratoxylum Formosum charcoal. The trial period spanned the sampling time of 3 hr for the burning temperature and the boiling temperature was corrected at 15 mn, 20 mn, 30 mn, 40 mn, and 50 mn. The results showed the temperature at burning and completed burning time analysis, significant differences in No of RDF (Pieces) showed a considerable difference P < 0.05 among the experiments higher in teak charcoal T1 and followed by T2 and T3. However, the temperature at the burning time showed a very high significant difference P < 0.05 at 15 mn where T2 and T3 were higher than T1. Moreover, at 30 mn and 1 hr a highly significant difference P < 0.05 at T1 was higher than at T2 and T3. After 2 hr was showed a highly significant difference P < 0.05 at T3, T1 than T2. At the end of heating, energy showed a highly significant difference P < 0.05 at T1 than at T3 and T2. Therefore, Temperature at boiling time from 15 mn, 20 mn, 30 mn, and 40 mn showed a highly significant difference P < 0.05 at T1 than T2 and T3. Therefore, the biomass, and weight of charcoal were affected by the temperature on burning and the temperature at boiling, based on this study charcoal from teak was a highly significant difference and was used for further use on potential bio-residues being utilized as fuel as sustainable energy solutions.","PeriodicalId":23739,"journal":{"name":"World Journal of Advanced Research and Reviews","volume":"9 30","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141795801","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The hydrophilic acrylic resin can cause denture-cleaning molecules to enter through microporosity which can be toxic to the oral tissue. Plant-based denture cleanser is commonly used one of which is edamame (Glycine Max L. Merrill) extract. Denture cleanser made from edamame extract needs to be tested for toxicity to determine the biocompatibility of the material in the oral cavity, specifically on fibroblast cells. This study aims to determine the toxicity of edamame extract as a denture cleanser for heat-cured acrylic resin, which is soaked for 4 days against BHK-21 fibroblast cells. This 4-day submersion equals 15 minutes of submersion per day for 1 year. The toxicity tests were carried out using the MTT assay method. The results of these MTT tests can be seen from the absorbance values and calculating the percentages of cell viability. The more cells that are still alive, the more intense the purple color produced. The research results showed that the acrylic resin group which was soaked in a 50% concentration of edamame extract was not toxic to fibroblast cells, because the percentage of cell viability had a value of >70%, which was 83.638%. This research concludes that 50% concentration of edamame extract as a denture cleanser for heat-cured acrylic resin is not toxic to BHK-21 fibroblast cells compared to 75% and 100% concentrations of edamame extract.","PeriodicalId":23739,"journal":{"name":"World Journal of Advanced Research and Reviews","volume":"12 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141795930","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The synthesis process studies parameters like pH, temperature, and the effect of substitution of the ligand using various chemical analysis techniques to determine the physicochemical properties of these nano-scale particles. This implies that gallium-loaded NPs have the potential to enhance the fight against infectious diseases, as proved by the NPs' vital role in antimicrobial therapies for PET imaging. Research with animals has shown significant biodistribution to the organs and tissues of interest, which have helped enhance the imaging features of MRI and PET/CT scans. Likewise, the findings on biocompatibility and toxicity point to possible clinical application of these nanoparticles. As for future research directions, the synthesis of other new derivatives of Gd-DO3A complexes containing lipophilic monoamides and the examination of ionization's influence on encapsulation efficiency have been mentioned.

It can be due to aortic valve disease Myocardial disease may be reflected in the left bundle branch block, or it may be the result of conduction system degeneration.

Introduction: It is due to a defect in the conduction system of left bundle branch leading to delay or blockade of along the pathway that electrical impulses travel to make the ventricles to beat. Aims and objectives · To find out the percentage of people developing LBBB. · To find out the relationship of age and coronary artery disease leading to LBBB. · To find out the survival of LBBB in various age groups. Methodology: We obtained the data of 294 patients from Rahman Hospital using a questionnaire and evaluated it using SPSS software. The data was gathered according to inclusion and exclusion criteria that determined whether a major cardiac condition like CAD was present or not. Subsequently, SPSS conducted an analysis of the data and determination was drawn. Results and Conclusion: Patients identified and studied were 297 and followed for 5 years, the study revealed that 14 percent of patients had age less than 29, 21.4 % of patients having LBBB were around age 30 to 40 years, 26.9% people of CVD had LBBB aged 50-60 years and people above 60 years having CVD had 32.2% LBBB showing that with increase in age of patient having CVD there is more risk of developing LBBB significantly. The LBBB being carrying poor prognosis, the patients were followed for 5 years, revealed that 40 out of 297 (13%) lived for 6 months, 72 out of 297 (25%) lived for 1 year approximately, 44 out of 297 (15%) lived for more than 2 years, approximately 78 out of 297 lost to follow up or died from another cause shown in the graph, which explains that approximately half of patient dies in the first 6 months of diagnosis, so this has to be taken serious and treated adequately.

Different versions of Emergency Remote Education (ERE) emerged, in which theoretical classes were taught remotely to the detriment of practice, which would be taught at another time. The discipline of Anatomy, as it is based on practice, suffered a great impact on its modus operandi leading to adaptations. Practical classes were temporarily suspended to be taught in a subsequent period, dissociated from theoretical teaching, and carried out remotely online. Methodology: 254 medical students from a public university were interviewed. All students had taken at least one period of Anatomy at ERE and at least one period in person. Results: The majority of students did not agree with the usefulness of remote classes, but they participated in online tutoring and did not seem to believe that remote teaching could lead to insecurity in the application of anatomy in the clinic. Conclusion: In general, the student did not fully approve of the ERE, but did not feel disadvantaged in the teaching of Anatomy, and prefers face-to-face teaching.","PeriodicalId":23739,"journal":{"name":"World Journal of Advanced Research and Reviews","volume":"5 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141796191","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
