A Brief Review of Jute Fibre and Its Composites
TL;DR: The use of jute fibers as reinforcement for development of composite materials has increased in nowadays because the vexation shown by the environment due to increase in fuel prices, depletion of fossil fuels, global warming are the major concerns which force the researchers to work in the area of green composites as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
A potent and Kv1.3-selective analogue of the scorpion toxin HsTX1 as a potential therapeutic for autoimmune diseases
Harunur Rashid,Harunur Rashid,Redwan Huq,Mark R. Tanner,Sandeep Chhabra,Keith K. Khoo,Rosendo Estrada,Vikas Dhawan,Satendra Chauhan,Michael W. Pennington,Christine Beeton,Serdar Kuyucak,Raymond S. Norton +12 more
TL;DR: New HsTX1 analogues with an Ala, Phe, Val or Abu substitution at position 14 are described, with remarkable potency and selectivity for Kv1.3 in the low picomolar range and a selectivity of more than 2,000-fold for KV1.1.

Study of Effect of Surface Treatment on Mechanical Properties of Natural Fiber Reinforced Composites
TL;DR: In this article, the mechanical properties of the natural fiber reinforced polymer based composites which are partially biodegradable were investigated and compared with treated and non-treated NFR composites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Natural Fillers on Mechanical Properties of GFRP Composites
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of natural fillers on the mechanical properties of fiber reinforced plastics (FRPs) has been studied in the field of automotive and household applications, and it has been found that natural filler provided better results in polyester-based composites.
