Mechanisms of Origin and Clinical Effects of Multiple Small Supernumerary Marker Chromosomes, Each Derived from a Different ChromosomeAbstract
Small supernumerary marker chromosomes (sSMCs) are centric chromosome fragments additionally present in an otherwise normal human chromosome set that cannot be characterized by classical cytogenetic techniques alone. The majority of sSMCs are not yet related to a defined clinical phenotype. We compiled from the literature all 78 cases with multiple sSMCs per cell in which the chromosomal origin of the sSMCs has been identified. The number of sSMCs varies from 2 to 7; 64% have 2 sSMCs, 14% have 3 sSMCs, and the freq [...] 1791 11468 |
Photocatalytic and Catalytic Methods for Organic Azo Dyes and Paranitrophenol Pollutants Removal Using Green Synthesised Flacourtia indica Silver NanoparticlesAbstract
The advancement of photocatalytic nanomaterials has become central to addressing the growing challenge of removing organic pollutants from water systems through sustainable and efficient degradation pathways. In this study, silver nanoparticles were synthesized via a green approach using aqueous extracts derived from five parts of Flacourtia indica, including bark, flower, fruit, seed, and leaves, at 90°C for 45 minutes. UV–VIS spectroscopy (460 nm) confirmed nanoparticle formation, while scanning electron microsco [...] 456 1221 |

Abstract
Electrocatalytic oxidation of organic compound in the absence of noble metals or their oxides as catalysts and using metal-free electrodes is a "green" electrochemical, inexpensive and attractive process for practical use in electrocatalysis, power sources and sensors. The process accompanied by the elimination of protons, is of interest both for obtaining valuable organic compounds at the anode and for the release of hydrogen evolution at the cathode. In this work, the catalytic oxidation of cyclohexanol in the pr [...] 420 1064 |

Abstract
Pyrolysis is a promising technology for converting biomass waste into bio-oil, a liquid product that can serve as feedstock for fuels and high-value chemicals. In this study, bio-oil was produced via catalytic pyrolysis of pear pulp waste, a byproduct from juice and jam manufacturing, using a fixed-bed reactor. Initial non-catalytic experiments were conducted under nitrogen and vacuum atmospheres at temperatures ranging from 300 to 450°C for 15 minutes to evaluate the effect of temperature on bio-oil yield. The res [...] 464 1379 |

Paranitrophenol and Organic Azo Dye Degradation: Catalytic Power of Terminalia Leaf Silver NanoparticlesAbstract
Terminalia species is a widely available plant that can be used to synthesise silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and harness their catalytic capacity. This experimental design will explore the potential of Terminalia AgNPs in contributing to the degradation process of toxic chemicals generated by industries such as textiles, food, and pharmaceuticals. This research uses four leaf varieties of Terminalia species—T. arjuna, T. bellirica, T. chebula, and T. catappa—to synthesize AgNPs, evaluate their optimal synthesis condi [...] 658 3805 |

Abstract
The electrochemical water oxidation application of CuO@Fe2O3 materials as potential catalysts is being reported for the first time. A series of CuO@Fe2O3 with different molar ratios of CuO (5, 7, 10, 12, and 15%) was fabricated through precipitation followed by the impregnation method. Structural and electrochemical studies were carried out by using different analytical platforms, including X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Energy dispersive [...] 913 2857 |
