Cancer remains a major concern for human health worldwide. To fight the curse of cancer, boron neutron capture therapy is an incredibly advantageous modality in treatment cancer as compared to other radiotherapies. Due tortuous vasculature and around tumor regions, ( 10 B) compounds preferentially house into cells, creating large dose gradient between highly mingled cells normal cells. Epithermal or thermal bombardment leads tumor-cell-selective killing due generation heavy particles yielded from situ fission reaction. However, challenges nanocomposites’ development have been synthesis part well requirement selective targeting delivery therapeutic concentrations with nominal healthy tissue accumulation retention. circumvent above challenges, this review discusses boride nanocomposite design, safety, biocompatibility biomedical applications general public use. This sparks interest using nanocomposites agents repurposing them comorbidity treatments, future scientific opportunities, hope accelerate stimulus developing possible composite nanomedicine research

Bioplastic can be biodegradable environmentally friendly alternative plastic. In this paper, bioplastics based on polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/gellan gum (GG) blend have been produced three different compositions and their chemical structure, mechanical, morphological thermal properties studied. Glycerol used as plasticizer. To add extra features to PVA/GG bioplastic, Psidium guajava (guava) leaves, GL, chickpea, CP, extracts added (30/70) blend. Water aqueous ethanol extraction GL respectively. The addition plant’s enhanced tensile bioplastic. Weathering acceleration tests carried out examine degradation prepared bioplastics. Cytotoxicity studies revealed bioplastic safe food packaging applications. oxygen permeability new also plant (GL CP extracts) increased water extents. life cycle assessment (LCA) CO 2 emissions comparison investigated. From all results, proved degradable, effective plastics
