TL;DR: Immobilized peroxidases from Momordica charantia were highly effective in decolorizing reactive textile dyes compared to its soluble counterpart and was capable of removing remarkably high concentration of color from the effluent.

TL;DR: The review article presents a brief overview of oxidants and antioxidant systems inside the human body including the role of probiotics and inflammation.
Abstract: The free radical oxidants such as reactive oxygen species, reactive nitrogen species, and reactive sulfur species are produced inside cells through various metabolic processes. The body is equipped with an antioxidant defense system that guards against oxidative damage caused by these reactive oxidants and plays a major role in protecting cells from oxidative stress and damage. Antioxidants such as glutathione (GSH), thioredoxin, ascorbic acid and enzymes, for example, superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), catalase (CAT) counter the oxidative stress and protect lipids, proteins, and DNA. Antioxidants such as tocopherols, ascorbic acid, carotenoids, flavonoids, amino acids are also natural antioxidants present in foods. There is increasing demand and availability of designer foods fortified with antioxidants and probiotics that may be important in human health. The review article presents a brief overview of oxidants and antioxidant systems inside the human body including the role of probiotics and inflammation. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: Antioxidants such as GSH, thioredoxin, ascorbic acid, etc. and protective enzymes, for example, SOD, GPx, CAT, etc. counter oxidative stress and protect cellular biomolecules. Antioxidants such as tocopherols, ascorbic acid, carotenoids, flavonoids, amino acids, phospholipids, and sterols are natural antioxidants found in consumed foods. They play a major role in scavenging free radical and non-radical oxidants, and protect cells from oxidative stress and damage. The importance of antioxidants can be understood from the fact that oxidative damage is now associated with a variety of diseases including cancer, neurodegeneration, diabetes, etc. Several approaches to improve human health and achieve longevity use dietary antioxidants as formulation in diet and fortified foods. Antioxidants also maintain freshness and prolonging the shelf life of food products. The fortified or designer foods that are added with antioxidant nutrients and the use of microorganisms as probiotics are increasingly available in the market as health foods and supplements.

TL;DR: The production of the double-strange baryon resonances (Sigma (1385+/-), Xi (1530)(0)) has been measured at mid-rapidity (vertical bar y vertical bar < 0.5) in proton-proton collisions at root s = 7 TeV with the ALICE detector at the LHC as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: The production of the strange and double-strange baryon resonances (Sigma (1385)(+/-), Xi (1530)(0)) has been measured at mid-rapidity (vertical bar y vertical bar < 0.5) in proton-proton collisions at root s = 7 TeV with the ALICE detector at the LHC. Transverse momentum spectra for inelastic collisions are compared to QCD-inspired models, which in general underpredict the data. A search for the phi (1860) pentaquark, decaying in the Xi pi channel, has been carried out but no evidence is seen.

TL;DR: Use of the laser proved to be an effective tool to increase efficiency, specificity, ease, and cost and comfort of the dental treatment.
Abstract: The term LASER is an acronym for 'Light Amplification by the Stimulated Emission of Radiation'. As its first application in dentistry by Miaman, in 1960, the laser has seen various hard and soft tissue applications. In the last two decades, there has been an explosion of research studies in laser application. In hard tissue application, the laser is used for caries prevention, bleaching, restorative removal and curing, cavity preparation, dentinal hypersensitivity, growth modulation and for diagnostic purposes, whereas soft tissue application includes wound healing, removal of hyperplastic tissue to uncovering of impacted or partially erupted tooth, photodynamic therapy for malignancies, photostimulation of herpetic lesion. Use of the laser proved to be an effective tool to increase efficiency, specificity, ease, and cost and comfort of the dental treatment.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented the inclusive production cross sections σψ(2S), both integrated and as a function of the transverse momentum pT, for the two ycms domains.
Abstract: The ALICE Collaboration has studied the inclusive production of the charmonium state ψ(2S) in proton-lead (p-Pb) collisions at the nucleon-nucleon centre of mass energy (formula presented.) = 5.02 TeV at the CERN LHC. The measurement was performed at forward (2.03 < ycms< 3.53) and backward (−4.46 < ycms< −2.96) centre of mass rapidities, studying the decays into muon pairs. In this paper, we present the inclusive production cross sections σψ(2S), both integrated and as a function of the transverse momentum pT, for the two ycms domains. The results are compared to those obtained for the 1S vector state (J/ψ), by showing the ratios between the production cross sections, as well as the double ratios [σψ(2S)/σJ/ψ ]pPb/[σψ(2S)/σJ/ψ]pp between p-Pb and proton-proton collisions. Finally, the nuclear modification factor for inclusive ψ(2S) is evaluated and compared to the measurement of the same quantity for J/ψ and to theoretical models including parton shadowing and coherent energy loss mechanisms. The results show a significantly larger suppression of the ψ(2S) compared to that measured for J/ψ and to models. These observations represent a clear indication for sizeable final state effects on ψ(2S) production.[Figure not available: see fulltext.
