Recent pandemics, including the COVID-19 outbreak, have brought up growing concerns about transmission of zoonotic diseases from animals to humans. This highlights requirement for a novel approach discern and address escalating health threats. The One Health paradigm has been developed as responsive strategy confront forthcoming outbreaks through early warning, highlighting interconnectedness humans, animals, their environment. system employs several innovative methods such use advanced...
Recent advances in sequencing allow population-genomic data to be generated for virtually any species. However, approaches analyse such lag behind the ability generate it, particularly nonmodel Linkage disequilibrium (LD, nonrandom association of alleles from different loci) is a highly sensitive indicator many evolutionary phenomena including chromosomal inversions, local adaptation and geographical structure. Here, we present linkage network analysis (LDna), which accesses information on...
Mucormycosis is a serious and potentially fatal fungal infection caused by type of rare but opportunistic pathogen called mucormycetes. Recently, mucormycosis, also known as black fungus, made severe chaos in India during the second wave (between April June 2021) tragical COVID-19 epidemic its sudden devastating surge with up to 50% mortality rate. While exact cause sharp rise suddenly specifically still remains debatable, it has been noted that people who are diabetic have recovered from...
Environmental exposure to microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) is an increasing concern from human health perspectives. Little information on the genotoxic cytotoxic potential of NP particles in cells available. We aimed assess polystyrene (PSNPs) at different concentrations (2000μg/mL, 1000μg/mL, 500μg/mL) by using chromosomal aberration (CA) cytokinesis-block micronucleus assays (CBMN) peripheral lymphocytes. Dose-dependent hemolytic activity cell viability were observed against...
Abstract Contamination of drinking water with endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) raises concerns over the security and long-term sustainability clean supplies as well human exposure via daily intake. In this study, seasonal disparity occurrence six phthalates bisphenol-A in supply system associated health-risk were examined. The detection frequencies ∑6PAEs ranged from 24 to 100% winter whereas; summer it is below limit up 100%. DEHP was most prevalent phthalate congener ranging 1.14...
The global consumption of bottled water has surged, particularly where safe drinking is scarce Plastic bottles may leachharmful Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs), including bisphenol-A (BPA) and phthalate esters (PAEs), into the water. This study analyzes BPA six PAEs in from various brands Central India, utilizing gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). A total 39 samples 13 were analyzed. results show detectable levels (35.397 µg/L to 273.513 µg/L) (ND 1147.340 µg/L), with...
Diabetes is a major health challenge, and it linked to number of serious issues, including cardiovascular disease (heart attack stroke), diabetic nephropathy (kidney damage or failure), birth defects. The detection glucose has direct significant clinical importance in the management diabetes. Herein, we demonstrate application in-situ synthesized Ti2C-TiO2 MXene nanocomposite for high throughput non-enzymatic electrochemical sensing glucose. was by controlled oxidation Ti2C-MXene nanosheets...
Abstract India has made tremendous progress in reducing malaria mortality and morbidity the last decade. Mizoram State North-East is one of few malaria-endemic regions where transmission continued to remain high. As shares international borders with Bangladesh Myanmar, control this region critical for elimination efforts all three countries. For identifying hotspots targeted intervention, data from 385 public health sub-centers across were analyzed Geographic Information System. Almost...
North-east India, being a corridor to South-east Asia, is believed play an important role in transmitting drug resistant Plasmodium falciparum malaria India and South Asia. was the first place record emergence of resistance chloroquine as well sulphadoxine/pyrimethamine. Presently widespread all over other anti-malarials increasing. In this study both vivo therapeutic efficacy molecular assays were used screen spectrum sulphadoxine/pyrimethamine circulating P. strains. A total 220 positives...
Anopheles subpictus sensu lato is a major malaria vector in South and Southeast Asia. Based initially on polytene chromosome inversion polymorphism, subsequently morphological characterization, four sibling species A-D were reported from India. The present study uses molecular methods to further characterize identify Sri Lanka. Mosquitoes Lanka morphologically identified sequenced for the ribosomal internal transcribed spacer-2 (ITS2) mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit-I (COI) genes....
