Publication Spectroscopic analysis of dyes-silica nanocomposite for white light applications(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2025)This article investigates the white light emission characteristics of a composite material made from Coumarin 102 and Rhodamine 6 G, encapsulated in a porous nano-silica matrix enhanced by a hydrophobic coating and polymer layer. The composite exhibits complementary blue and yellow emissions, resulting in bright white light production. Electron microscopy indicates ?70 nm particle formation with a surface area of ?112 m2/g. Upon excitation with a 405 nm LED, chromaticity coordinates were measured at (0.35, 0.33). Time-resolved emission spectroscopy revealed radiative decay times of ?4.3 ns for C102 and ?4.8 ns for Rh6G, dependent on concentration. Thermal stability was assessed from 273 K to 325 K. The synthesized materials were also tested as coatings on blue LEDs for white light emission and latent fingerprint detection. Detailed photophysics and analyses are discussed in the article. © 2025 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Publication Artificial chimerism and its impact on the forensic investigation of sexual offences(SAGE Publications Ltd, 2025)Genetic chimerism is crucial when assessing the effectiveness of medical treatments and surgical procedures. Factors that cause chimerism include genetic mutations, cell division processes, radiation exposure and cell fusion. Natural chimerism results from natural factors, while artificial chimerism results from medical procedures. It may produce deceptive DNA evidence, potentially causing erroneous accusations or exoneration of a guilty individual. This study aims to understand this phenomenon, measuring techniques and the standards followed in the interpretation of artificially induced chimerism following a systematic review of the literature related to chimerism and forensic evidencing techniques. This study comprehensively explores and consolidates existing studies on chimerism and its implications for sexual offences and investigates the influence of chimerism on forensic inquiries, particularly emphasising the treatments and procedures that may produce artificial chimerism. We reviewed multiple databases, encompassing peer-reviewed journals, grey literature and various online resources. DNA evidence plays a vital role in linking perpetrators to sexual assault cases but may produce misleading outcomes in instances involving a chimera. This concern is particularly significant where medical histories involve transplant or transfusion procedures. Though rare the potential impact on forensic investigation of sexual offences must be considered. © The Author(s) 2025 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Publication Debt and Despair: Exploring the Factors Pushing From Debt to Suicide During the Covid-19 Pandemic in India(SAGE Publications Inc., 2025)The COVID-19 pandemic has had far-reaching effects on the economies and societies of countries worldwide. In India, debt levels among individuals have risen due to job losses, reduced income, financial loss and the burden of COVID-19 treatment. This paper has examined the relationship between debt and despair which turns into suicide during the COVID-19 pandemic in India. Researcher applied ‘stress theory’ to explore various factors which increased stress and despair during the first and second waves of COVID-19 in India. This paper is a qualitative study and has applied content analysis as a method and has collected 75 cases of COVID-19-related debt and suicide between March 2020 and December 2022, including reports from government agencies, academic articles, media coverage, etc. Finding of this study reveals that during COVID-19 in India many people committed suicide due to job losses, reduced income, financial loss and COVID-19 treatment which increased debt among them. © The Author(s) 2025 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Publication Synthesis, structural insights, quantum calculations, and docking studies of a novel compound: 5-(anthracen-10-yl)-1-phenyl-3-(thiophen-2-yl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole(Elsevier B.V., 2026)A hybrid heterocyclic compound, 5-(anthracen-10-yl)-1-phenyl-3-(thiophen-2-yl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole (APTDP), has been synthesized and comprehensively characterized using spectroscopic techniques (NMR, FT-IR) and LC-MS technique. The molecular structure was confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD) and further optimized through Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Hartree-Fock calculations. The compound APTDP crystallizes in the space group P21 and exhibits structural integrity through a cohesive network of C–H···N hydrogen bonds and stabilizing C–H···? and ?···? interactions. The crystal structure obtained from SCXRD analysis (R-factor of 0.042) shows excellent correlation with the DFT-HF optimized geometry. DFT enables advanced exploration of APTDP electronic structure by analyzing frontier molecular orbitals, atomic charge distribution, and the molecular electrostatic potential surface, these studies shows that the molecule has tendency to act as an electron acceptor with significant electrophilic character. Hirshfeld surface analysis, FP analysis, and combined QTAIM and RDG studies are performed. These approaches provide deeper insights into the structural architecture, highlighting key intra- and intermolecular interactions and shows that the weak interactions play significant role in crystal structure stabilization. In-silico docking analysis of APTDP ligand against the iNOS enzyme demonstrated strong binding affinity (-12.86 kcal/mol), suggesting that APTDP may serve as a potential iNOS inhibitor and thereby supporting its potential role in future drug development efforts. © 2025 Elsevier B.V.

Publication The Role of Media, Cinema, and Literature in Professional and Vocational Development(Anukarsh - A Peer-reviewed Quarterly Magazine, 2023-06)This research article explores the role of media, cinema, and literature in fostering professional and vocational development. The study aims to investigate how these forms of expression contribute to skill acquisition, knowledge enhancement, and personal growth, ultimately shaping individuals' professional trajectories. By exploring the impact of media, cinema, and literature on various aspects of professional development, such as skill acquisition, networking, personal branding, and cultural competence, this research highlights the significance of integrating these mediums into educational and training programs. The findings of this research indicate that media, cinema, and literature play a crucial role in skill acquisition and knowledge enhancement. Through exposure to diverse narratives and perspectives, individuals develop critical thinking skills, creativity, and problem-solving abilities. Media literacy skills enable individuals to critically analyse and interpret media messages, while cinema serves as an educational tool that enhances understanding of different cultures and perspectives. Literature, on the other hand, enhances communication skills, including reading comprehension, critical thinking, and verbal expression. The implications of this research are significant for educators, trainers, and policymakers. Integrating media, cinema, and literature into educational and training programs can create a more holistic and enriching learning environment. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Publication Onset of Ideal priming approach of Professional Courses of Study(Anukarsh - A Peer-reviewed Quarterly Magazine, 2023-06)Teachers may create a stimulating learning environment where students can develop important intellectual and social skills that will benefit them for the rest of their lives by using the correct teaching strategies. A teacher can assist students with a variety of interests, talents, and learning preferences by implementing one of the available frameworks. To increase your student's chances of succeeding in the classroom, whether you work in the education sector as a teacher or another professional, you might find it helpful to learn about cutting-edge instructional practices. Teaching techniques are approaches that teachers can use to make learning easier and pique students' motivation and interest in the material. Different teaching philosophies include game-based study, differentiated study, lecture-based method, technology-based pedagogy, group and individual study, inquiry-based study, kinesthetic study, game-based study, and expeditionary study. You can enhance your methods by trying out various teaching techniques while presenting the same course, communicating with other educators to acquire their insights, and being flexible. Due to the quick changes in the modern world, the Education System is currently dealing with a wide range of problems. An excellent teaching strategy helps students overcome their preconceptions and motivates them to study by putting them in a situation where they start to believe that they are the ones who come up with the solutions and who are responsible for the change. Professors that are respected both nationally and locally serve as ideal role models for educators who are enthusiastic about effective teaching methods of professional courses, providing them with ideas, insights, and the best teaching methods.(Journal of Advances in Medical Education & Professionalism v.4(4); 2016 Oct PMC5065908) - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Publication Learning of Languages for Quality Teaching in Higher Education: Realization of NEP 2020 Vision(Anukarsh - A Peer-reviewed Quarterly Magazine, 2023-06)Language is one of the most marked, conspicuous, as well as fundamental characteristics of the faculties of man. Language is a system of sounds, words, patterns, etc., used by humans to communicate thoughts and feelings. Language is a system of communication which consists of a set of sounds and written symbols which are used by the people of a particular country or region for talking or writing in. The importance of language for man and society cannot be minimized. Language is not only a mode of communication between individuals but also a way for the expression of their personality. Man is remarkably distinguished from animals not only in his use of language but also in his thought process. This use has been termed by Chomsky as “the creative aspect of language; Chomsky suggests that “the normal use of language is innovative, in sense that much of what we say in the course of normal language use is entirely new, not a reception of anything that we have heard before and not even “similar” in “pattern” to sentences or discourse that we have heard in the past” (Chomsky, p.10). Language has its true being in conversation in the exercise and promotion and understanding between peoples. Language should not be a means to impose or transmit my will to another. Above all, language is a living process in which a community of life is lived out. It should be thought that human language as a special and unique living process, in that in linguistic communication, world and human worldview is disclosed. This disclosure, this function of language means that language does not draw attention to itself but transparent to the realities that are manifested through it. Since learning a language is part of our knowledge, it becomes one of the key factors in competitiveness. In the advanced industrial society of today, the basic knowledge of a single or more language has become indispensable. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
