Study of Zn‐Astrakanite/CuO/ZnO Nanocomposite Using Tribulus terrestris Aqueous Extract, and Their Structural, Optical, Morphological, Dielectric, and Bacterial Properties

Microscopy Research and Technique, EarlyView.
Upon UV–vis characterization of biosynthesized Cu doped ZnO nanoparticles, it was found that their bandgap energy was 2.73 eV. In the biosynthesized nanoparticles, metal oxides and functional groups were identified by FTIR analysis. In both Zn‐O and Cu‐O lattices, 472 cm−1 and 523 cm−1 were observed, respectively.

Prevalence of Pancreaticobiliary Maljunction and High Confluence of the Pancreaticobiliary Ducts: True Incidence of Gallbladder Cancer

Journal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Although pancreaticobiliary maljunction (PBM) is associated with a high incidence of biliary cancer, it often goes undiagnosed. This means that the true prevalence of PBM and the incidence of biliary cancer are unknown. High confluence of the pancreaticobiliary ducts (HCPBD) may be an intermediate PBM variant, though reports are ...
