The authors test the ability of aloe vera gel to purify water of four separate contaminants. Aloe reduced the levels of copper, iron, and phosphate, but not nitrate. Potential applications of this purification system are discussed.

Methane is a naturally-occurring gas that could be utilized as a renewable source of energy. In this study, authors isolated microorganisms from the Puget Sound region that could produce methane biofuel from composted waste.

This study examines the effects of carbon dioxide and pH on the development of red abalone shells.

Galaxy clusters offer several advantages for measuring H₀ compared to traditional methods, such as Cepheid variables or Type Ia supernovae. Unlike individual stars or supernovae, clusters are less affected by local variations in stellar population or interstellar medium properties, providing a more stable and consistent measure over large cosmological distances. This work proposes using galaxy clusters as an alternative method for determining the H₀. It provides an independent perspective on the H₀ debate and contribute to ongoing efforts to reconcile the differing values obtained from the other two measurements.

This study strongly illustrates that optimizing 3D printing parameters would enhance a triboelectric nanogenerator's performance. The design improvements substantiate the potential of optimized, 3D-printed TENGs for developing scalable, cost-effective solutions for powering low-energy electronics, particularly in applications such as structural health monitoring.

India’s Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI)—including the Unified Payments Interface (UPI) and Aadhaar—has been globally recognized for advancing financial inclusion and efficient governance. This study analyzes data from 2016–17 to 2023–24 the impact of these services on India's GDP.

This study explored whether planaria, known for their regenerative abilities, can retain learned memories after regeneration and how stressors like alcohol affect memory.

The authors looked at different factors, such as age, pre-existing conditions, and geographic region, and their ability to predict what an individual's health insurance premium would be.

Andrographolide, a natural compound with anti-inflammatory, antidepressant, and anti-cancer properties, can be chemically modified by adding an acetonide group to form andrographolide acetonide, which is more potent and acts as a pH-dependent prodrug. Researchers investigated the hydrolysis of this acetonide group under mildly acidic conditions.

Authors examine the effectiveness of Large Language Models (LLMs) like BERT, MathBERT, and OpenAI GPT-3.5 in assisting middle school students with math word problems, particularly following the decline in math performance post-COVID-19.
