Recent Advancements in Drug Design

Drug Design is a resourceful procedure of discovering innovative prescriptions based on the association of the biological objective.

The combination of thermodynamic data, structural information and cheminformatics tools play a vital role in the process of drug designing.

High throughput Screening (HTS) is another progress in the dug designing field. A huge number of compounds for the biological activities with the discovered targets can be produced by combinatorial chemistry.

All the scholarly information with respect to this field is normally shared with the research community by means of research paper.

CCHTS is a highly recommended journal in the respective field. A lot of research papers and review articles have been published by CCHTS, earning the journl an impact factor of 2.0 as per journal citation report 2012. CCHTS has 16 volumes to its credit, and is highly recommended. 

Global Warming: A Threat to Earth As We Know It!

Global warming is a serious issue that is affecting all forms of life on earth. Unfortunately, and due to our own doing, the average global temperature is on the rise, leading to a phenomenon widely known as the global warming.

Though this global concern is not new, it is only beginning to reveal its most disastrous outcomes in the forms of catastrophes like floods, intense storms, melting of polar ice caps and glaciers, and tropical storms etc.

Since the 1950s, the climb in average temperature of the earth’s environment is affecting the natural balance. Global warming is harmfully affecting life on earth, and things will continue to worsen if we do not control the factors leading to global warming.

The extensive burning of fossil fuel began with the industrial revolution, which is in fact is a major source of greenhouse gas releases, especially carbon dioxide. Industrial development, coal mining, gas field leakages and car emissions all contribute to the occurrence of global warming. 

 Agriculture is another major cause of global warming. About 14% of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere are released by agriculture and farming. Livestock farming, on the other hand, emits huge amounts of methane, a major contributor to world’s greenhouse gases. Conditions are made worse by deforestation and using the cleared land for farming, thus contributing to a vicious cycle.

Global warming is a serious issue which needs immediate attention of the scientific community, governments, corporate sector and consumers of industrial and agricultural products. It is time we united as a global community to counter this grave concern.
