Chitosan/Lignosulfonate Nanospheres as “Green” Biocide for Controlling the Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion of Carbon Steel by Pathath Abdul Rasheed (16846898)

“…<p dir="ltr">In this work, uniform cross-linked chitosan/lignosulfonate (CS/LS) nanospheres with an average diameter of 150–200 nm have been successfully used as a novel, environmentally friendly biocide for the inhibition of mixed sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) culture, thereby controlling microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) on carbon steel. It was found that 500 µg·mL−1 of the CS/LS nanospheres can be used efficiently for the inhibition of SRB-induced corrosion up to a maximum of 85% indicated by a two fold increase of charge transfer resistance (Rct) on the carbon steel coupons. …”

A genetically encoded BRET-based SARS-CoV-2 Mpro protease activity sensor by Anupriya M. Geethakumari (17052375)

“…Further, in vitro assays with the BRET-based Mpro sensors revealed a molecular crowding-mediated increase in the rate of M^pro activity and a decrease in the inhibitory potential of GC376. The sensors developed here will find direct utility in studies related to drug discovery targeting the SARS-CoV-2 M^pro and functional genomics application to determine the effect of sequence variation in M^pro.…”
