Injustice: why social inequality persists by Dorling, D

“…Based on significant research across a range of fields, in Injustice Dorling argues that, as the five social evils identified by Beveridge at the dawn of the British welfare state are gradually being eradicated (ignorance, want, idleness, squalor and disease), they are being replaced by five new tenets of injustice, that: elitism is efficient; exclusion is necessary;prejudice is natural;greed is good and despair is inevitable. …”

The characterization of reflectin protonic conductivity by Reyes, Jacob

“…Cephalopods, such as the Sepioteuthis lessioniana (S. lessionia), possess the remarkable defensive mechanism of camouflage, seemingly altering incoming light and changing the colour of its skin to its surrounding environment. Research has revealed that this ability stems from the cephalopod’s iridophores, and, more importantly, reflectin protein nanoparticles that alter the dimension and structure of the overall ensemble of said iridophores. …”

Metal mediated high performance antimicrobial hydrogel films for wound infection management: Zn, Cu, and Mg versus Ag and Au by Sen, Raj Kumar., Prabhakar, Priyanka, Mayandi, Venkatesh, Dwivedi, Neeraj, Yadav, Amit K., Solanki, Pratima R., Gupta, Ayush, Gowri, V. S., Lakshminarayanan, Rajamani, Verma, Navin Kumar, Mondal, D. P., Srivastava, Avanish Kumar, Dhand, Chetna

“…While silver-based materials have emerged as potential alternatives to antibiotics in wound care management, they are expensive (gold is an even more expensive antimicrobial agent), and their excessive use may promote silver-resistant microbial strains, and skin argyrosis. Furthermore, excessive wound exudate causes conventional wound dressings to become moistened and painful to remove due to adhesion to the wound. …”

Neutron emission studies from miniature and medium size plasma focus device by Singh, Rajdeep Raweet.

“…Although dense plasma focus devices have attracted the attention of scientific community since 1960’s as a copious source of fusion neutrons but in the recent years owing to spin-off in the applications of compact and portable table top neutron sources in wider domain, like noninvasive interrogation of explosives and narcotic drugs (by using Pulsed Fast/Thermal Neutron Analysis (PFTNA) technique), dark matter research, radioisotope production, medical neutron therapy and soil humidity measurements, there has been renewed interest across the globe for the development of sub-kilojoule range, low energy small plasma focus device (hereafter called ‘Miniature Plasma Focus i.e. …”
