Article Highlights: An automated water recycle method for cleaning dust-fall in rooftop photovoltaic module is proposed.Both simulation and experimental models are developed to predict output power of the photovoltaic module.Proposed method can produce 24.40% more output power than a no-cleaning system with a mere water loss of 0.32%/cycle.
RESULTS: This study attempts to classify Angiosperms using plant sulfur-containing compound (SCC) or sulphated compound information. The SCC dataset of 692 plant species were collected from the comprehensive species-metabolite relationship family (KNApSAck) database. The structural similarity score of metabolite pairs under all possible combinations (plant species-metabolite) were determined and metabolite pairs with a Tanimoto coefficient value > 0.85 were selected for clustering using machine learning algorithm. Metabolite clustering showed association between the similar structural metabolite clusters and metabolite content among the plant species. Phylogenetic tree construction of Angiosperms displayed three major clades, of which, clade 1 and clade 2 represented the eudicots only, and clade 3, a mixture of both eudicots and monocots. The SCC-based construction of Angiosperm phylogeny is a subset of the existing monocot-dicot classification. The majority of eudicots present in clade 1 and 2 were represented by glucosinolate compounds. These clades with SCC may have been a mixture of ancestral species whilst the combinatorial presence of monocot-dicot in clade 3 suggests sulphated-chemical structure diversification in the event of adaptation during evolutionary change.
CONCLUSIONS: Sulphated chemoinformatics informs classification of Angiosperms via machine learning technique.
METHODS: The paracetamol was encapsulated in beads, which were prepared mainly from alginate and chitosan through electrospray technique. The paracetamol beads were sprinkled on the instant jelly prepared from glycine, ι-carrageenan and calcium lactate gluconate. The paracetamol instant jelly characteristics, in terms of physical appearance, texture, rheology, in vitro drug release and palatability were assessed on a human volunteer.
RESULTS: The paracetamol instant jelly was easily reconstituted in 20 mL of water within 2 min to form jelly with acceptable consistency and texture. The jelly must be ingested within 30 min after reconstitution to avoid the bitter taste. The palatability assessment carried out on 12 human subjects established the similar palatability and texture of the paracetamol instant jelly dosage comparable to the commercial paracetamol suspension and was found to be even better in overcoming the aftertaste of paracetamol.
CONCLUSION: Such findings indicate that paracetamol instant jelly will compensate for the use of sweetening and flavoring agents as well as develop pediatric dosage forms with limited undesired excipients.
