  Spermmediated gene transfer revisited: optimizing delivery, integration, and germline transmissionin large animal models

  By Atul Khajuria, Ashish Kumar

  Abstract: Spermmediated gene transfer (SMGT) exploits the natural role of spermatozoa as DNA vectors to deliver exogenous genetic material to oocytes, potentially enabling economical production of transgenic large animals without complex embryo micromanipulation (1). Early proofofconcept studies established that mammalian sperm can bind, internalize, and protect exogenous DNA, leading to integration, expression, and germline transmission in various species, including pigs (24). Subsequent mechanistic work has challenged the traditional view of sperm …

  THE STUDY OF DIELECTRIC PERMITTIVITY OF NINPs-PDMS

  By Ashish Kumar, Pankaj kumar Modi

  Abstract: Nickel–polydimethylsiloxane (Ni–PDMS) nanocomposites were fabricated to investigate the influence of metallic nanoparticle loading on the dielectric behavior of flexible polymer matrices. Nickel nanoparticles with controlled size distributions were dispersed in PDMS using solution blending and curing protocols optimized to minimize agglomeration. The dielectric permittivity and loss tangent of the resulting nanocomposites were measured across a broad frequency range (typically 10²–10⁶ Hz) and at varying filler volume fractions. Results show a …
