Authors: Srinithya B., Meenakshi Sundaram Muthuraman
Abstract
Plants have been used since ancient times to heal and cure diseases and to improve health and well being. Sida cordifolia Linn belonging to family Malvaceae is widely distributed throughout the plains of India. The various parts of Sida cordifolia possess different biological perspectives such as antidiabetic, anti stress, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, hepatoprotective and anticancer activity. This plant has great potential for development of ayurvedic and modern medicines. The present study is focused on pharmacological review of Sida cordifolia L.
Effect of Different Water Flow Gap Distance in Thermal Performance of Solar Photovoltaic Panel
Authors: Anand Kumar, Mr.Tejkaran Naroliya, Dr. Vinay Kumar Yadav
Abstract
In the current work, the CAD model of solar panel (photovoltaic) has been developed by using design modeller. The model has been simulated using ANSYS software on fluent solver in workbench in order to observe various parameters affecting the thermal performance of solar panel (photovoltaic). Five types of configurations of solar panel (photovoltaic) with water flow gap i.e. flow gap of 10mm, 20mm, 30mm, 40mm and 50mm have been used. The simulation of the optimized model gives lower value of temperature distribution with respect to different mass flow rate at constant solar radiation. It is also observed from present analysis that solar panel (photovoltaic) with 10mm and 20mm of water flow gap exhibits lower temperature with thermal energy gain with enhancement of 65 to 70 percent of total efficiency, the regression analysis is also performed for developed optimized models for determination of optimum developed optimized model and it was observed that 10mm of water flow gap have effective results as compared to other configurations.
Review on Immunotherapy-Development of an Alternative Cancer Treatment
Author: G V Harini
Abstract
Cancer immunotherapy involves the use of therapeutic modalities that determine a manipulation of the immune system by using immune agents such as cytokines, vaccines, cell therapies and humoral, transfection agents. Immunotherapy of cancer has to stimulate the host’s anti-tumour response by increasing the effector cell number and the production of soluble mediators and decrease the host’s suppressor mechanisms by inducing tumour killing environment and by modulating immune checkpoints. Immunotherapy seems to work better in more immunogenic tumours. Compared with previous standards of care (including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery), cancer immunotherapy has brought significant improvements for patients in terms of survival and quality of life. Immunotherapy has now firmly established itself as a novel pillar of cancer care. In this review we will see the evolution of immunotherapy.
