Fluorescence detection of the pathogenic bacteria Vibrio harveyi in solution and animal cells using semiconductor quantum dots
(The Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016)Validation of microbial infection pathways in eukaryotic cells is challenging in the control of various infectious diseases. Semiconductor nanocrystals, also called quantum dots (QD), due to their exceptional brightness ... -
Variations in carbonaceous species at a high-altitude site in western India: Role of synoptic scale transport
(Elsevier, 2016)Atmospheric fine-mode particulate matter (PM2.5), collected during January to December 2007 at a high-altitude site (Mt. Abu, 24.6°N, 72.7°E, 1680 m asl) in the western India, have been analysed for carbonaceous and inorganic ... -
Evolution of extreme high waters along the east coast of India and at the head of the Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2016)The recent evolution of extreme high waters along the severe cyclone-risk coasts of the Bay of Bengal (the east coast of India and Bangladesh) was assessed using long-term (24–34 years) hourly tide gauge data available ... -
Controls on ferromanganese crust composition and reconnaissance resource potential, Ninetyeast Ridge, Indian Ocean
(Elsevier, 2016)A reconnaissance survey of Fe–Mn crusts from the 5000 km long (~31°S to 10°N) Ninetyeast Ridge (NER) in the Indian Ocean shows their widespread occurrence along the ridge as well as with water depth on the ridge flanks. ... -
Major and trace element geochemistry of S-type cosmic spherules
(The Meteoritical society, U.S., 2016)Micrometeorites that pass through the Earth's atmosphere undergo changes in their chemical compositions, thereby making it difficult to understand if they are sourced from the matrix, chondrules, or calcium–aluminum-rich ... -
A simple estimation of equatorial Pacific response from windstress to untangle Indian Ocean dipole and basin influences on El Nino
(Springer, 2016)Sea Surface Temperature (SST) anomalies that develop in spring in the central Pacific are crucial to the El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO) development. Here we use a linear, continuously stratified, ocean model, and its ... -
Ruthenium(II)-catalyzed synthesis of pyrrole- and indole-fused isocoumarins by C-H bond activation in DMF and water
(Wiley, 2016)Pyrrole- and indole-fused isocoumarins constitute important structural units in natural products and pharmacophores, although the direct and selective bifunctionalization of pyrrole and indole remain a challenge. Herein, ... -

COHERENS: A hydrodynamic model validated for the west coast of India
(Current Science Association, 2015)COHERENS (COupled Hydrodynamical and Ecological model for REgioNal and Shelf seas), a 3D hydrodynamic multi-purpose model, has been implemented for the coastal and shelf seas of eastern Arabian Sea to study the flow ... -
Biosequestration of carbon dioxide, biomass, calorific value and biodiesel precursors production using a novel flask culture photobioreactor
(Elsevier, 2015)Renewable, carbon neutral, economically viable alternative fuels are urgently needed to turn away the consequences of climate change Photosynthetic capability of microalgae with respect to CO<sub>2</sub> fixation at various ... -

(Springer, 2015)This paper is a compilation of notes on 110 fungal taxa, including one new family, 10 new genera, and 76 new species, representing a wide taxonomic and geographic range The new family, Paradictyoarthriniaceae is introduced ... -
Biochemical and stable carbon isotope records of mangrove derived organic matter in the sediment cores
(Springer, 2016)Core sediments from five mangrove ecosystems along northern Kerala Coast were collected to evaluate the nature and sources of organic matter in these ecosystems. General sedimentary parameters (pH, Eh, grain size and total ... -
A comparison of Mg/Ca ratios in Globigerinoides ruber (white): sensu stricto versus a mixture of genotypes
(Geological Society of India, 2016)Mg/Ca ratios were measured in core AAS9/21 from the eastern Arabian Sea (EAS), on two sets of planktonic foraminifera, one with a mixture of Globigerinoides ruber genotypes (sensu stricto and sensu lato) and the second ... -
DNA damage and oxidative stress in marine gastropod Morula granulata exposed to phenanthrene
(Springer, 2016)DNA damage and oxidative stress in marine gastropod Morula granulata was measured after in vivo exposure to four different concentrations (10, 25, 50, and 100 mikrog/L) of phenanthrene. Comet assay was used for measurement ... -
Tumour-like anomaly of copepods-an evaluation of the possible causes in Indian marine waters
