Amid all the species, Cordyceps militaris is a valuable medicinal fungus and considered as the antiquated source of some valuable chemical constituent. Other than their famous application for tonic solution, the constituents of C.militaris are currently utilized broadly in present-time medications.
Single cell protein (SCP) are refined protein extracted from microorganisms such as yeast, fungi, algae, and bacteria. These products can be used as dietary supplements in animal feed or human food. Such organisms use various energy and carbon sources to grow and produce amino acids and proteins concentrate. SCP is the protein separated from cultured microbial biomass. It can be utilized for protein supplementation to main dietary regimen by substituting expensive standard sources such as fishmeal and soymeal to mitigate the issue of deficient protein intake.
The defense sector has always been a front-runner in adoption of advanced defense technologies. Embracing latest technologies not only helps various countries to reduce fatalities but also to gain a competitive edge over other countries. The undersea warfare space has witnessed drastic technological developments in the recent past. Technologies which were earlier just prototypes have now been turned into actual defense systems.
Thebaine is an opiate alkaloid which is extracted form poppy of Papaver somnifer and Papaver bracteatum. Thebaine is also referred as codeine methyl enol ether and paramorphine, it is available as a minor constituent in the range of 0.2 % and 1.5 % in opium poppy and has structural configuration similar to morphine and codeine.

Chagas disease or American trypanosomiasis, is inflammatory disease caused by protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi. It is characterized by inflammation of tissue, mostly of the heart and intestinal tract. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), about 8 million people are infected with chagas disease around the globe, predominantly in Latin America.
Electromyography (EMG) is the technique to study electrical properties produced by skeletal muscles using superficial electrodes that determine their electro-physiology signals. There are two main types of electromyography, namely, surface EMG (sEMG) and intramuscular (needle) EMG. Traditionally, needle EMG was the preferred technique for studying neuromuscular disorders.
Polyester belongs to the class of polymers which comprise of ester functional group in the main chain. Being an explicit material, polyester generally refers to the fibers or yarns of polyethylene terephthalate. Polyesters comprise of synthetic materials such as polybutyrate as well as naturally occurring materials such as cutin of plant cuticles. All the natural polyesters are biodegradable, although a few synthetic polyesters also can be decomposed. Polyester yarns are extensively used in textile and clothing application. Fabrics knitted or woven from polyester yarns are used exclusively in apparel, clothing and home furnishings.
