Review of the Oldest Museum of India: The Indian Museum of Kolkata
Abstract: A museum is more than a collection of art, sculptures or treasures. Rather it is a repository of the history of extinct species and their cultures. “Real museums are places where Time is transformed into Space.” (Orhan Pamuk, ,2008) Museums organise the world according to how we view it changing, such as from colonialism to modernism. The Indian Museum in Kolkata is the world's oldest and biggest multidisciplinary museum, serving …

Effect of Nanoclay on the Performance of Calotopis Gigantea Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastic Composites at Distinct Temperature
Abstract: Polymer-based nanocomposite is a developing subject that attracts many researchers due to its special qualities and versatility. Because the specific surface areas of nanofillers in nanocomposites are so high, it is much simpler to produce mechanical properties at the interface. Furthermore, a favorable interaction between the nanofillers and polymer matrix may manifest itself even at comparatively lower percentages of loading nanofillers. Thus, a smart, adaptive polymer nanocomposite material with the …

Peri-implant Inflammation Defined by the Implant–Abutment Interface
Abstract: An interface of implant-abutment at the alveolar bone crest is allied with sustained peri-implant inflammation; though, whether extent of inflammation is correspondingly reliant on interface position remains unknown. This study compared the distribution and density of inflammatory cells surrounding implants with a supracrestal, crestal, or subcrestal implant-abutment interface. All implants established a parallel pattern of peri-implant inflammation: neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) extremely collected at or proximately coronal to the interface. …

Evaluation of Improved Sorghum Varieties (Sorghum Bicolor L. Moench) for GrainYield at Midland Areas of Derashe and Gerese Districts, South Ethiopia
Abstract: One of the main elements restricting a variety's ability to respond in a breeding program is the environment. This is why, in 2021 and 2022 at Derashe and in 2022 at Gerese, five improved sorghum varieties and one standard check were assessed to find more productive midland sorghum types. A randomized complete block with three replications was used in the experiment. Significant differences between treatments of the investigated variables were …

An exploration of Zika virus eruption
Abstract: Zika virus (ZIKV) is a recently rising relative of the Flaviviridae family and associated to dengue (DENV) and Chikungunya (CHIVKV). ZIKV infection was distinguished by mild disease with fever, headache, rash, arthralgia and conjunctivitis, with unprecedented association with Guillain–Barre Syndrome (GBS) and microcephaly. Nevertheless, since the end of 2015, a rise in the number of GBS related cases and an astonishing number of microcephaly in fetus and neonates in Brazil …
