“…Cellulose from rice straw is a suitable candidate for the preparation of hydrogels by grafting or crosslinking reactions, as it has been shown to be a good precursor material for the preparation of hydrogels due to its great crosslinking and grafting ability in the presence of abundant hydroxyl (-OH) groups [6][7][8][9]. However, the low swelling degree of cellulose and its poor mechanical properties have hampered the development of unmodified cellulose as stable hydrogels.…”

Synthesis and Characterization of Graft Copolymer Rice Straw Cellulose-Acrylamide Hydrogels Using Gamma Irradiation

Rice straw cellulose available as waste biomass was graft copolymerized with acrylamide monomer by simultaneous gamma irradiation as initiator. The effects of bleaching of cellulose and irradiation dose were evaluated. Evidence of grafting is obtained from comparison of Fourier Transfer Infrared (FTIR) of the cellulose and grafted cellulose. X-ray diffraction analysis shows that crystallinity was reduced through graft copolymerization. Kinetic investigations of the graft copolymerization were also carried out, and the rate constant parameter (k p /k t 0.5 ) has been found to be 4.9922 l 0.5 . mol -0.5 .s -0.5 . The results show that for the same dose, grafting efficiency is higher with the bleached cellulose form than with the unbleached form. The grafting efficiency and the gel fraction increases with increasing total irradiation doses. At higher radiation doses crosslink density starts to increase considerably while swelling degree decreases with the increasing crosslink density.

“…Till date to the best of our knowledge, only 10 cases of solitary fibular metastasis have been reported. [345678910] Out of these 10 cases, in four cases the primary tumour was in lung as seen in our case.

Solitary bone metastasis to fibula in patients of lung carcinoma is a rare entity, with only four cases reported in literature. We, hereby, present a case of a 50 year-old-male who was given three cycles of chemotherapy for lung carcinoma with no distant metastasis but presented 2 months later with a fusiform, painful swelling around the knee that was clinically suspected to be inflammatory in nature but proved to be fibular metastasis on cytology. There was no evidence of skeletal metastasis on initial bone scan. He was given palliative radiotherapy for this with symptomatic relief.

“…Tibial metastasis from the lung and kidney have also been reported 16 17. Metastasis to the fibula has been reported from the genital tract,18–21 gastrointestinal tract,22 lungs23 and kidney 24. However, to our knowledge, bilateral below knee metastases have never been reported.…”
