Ionic fluids, known as magnetic ionic liquids, are paramagnetic at room temperature and do not require the addition of magnetic particles. Magnetic ionic liquids (MILs) exhibit unique and configurable physicochemical properties of ionic liquids as well as a significant response to external magnetic fields. MILs, as opposed to ferrofluids, are transparent, particle-free magnetic liquids. Since their discovery, major work has been done on finding the perfect applications of MILs, and since the last decade, it has been established that MILs could replace conventional, toxic solvents and become the suitable green solvents that can be used for a wide range of analytical experiments. MILs have been used extensively in analytical procedures like catalytic reactions and sample preparation, and a large amount of discoveries have been made in their applications for a variety of extraction procedures. Along with these, MILs have been used not only in analytical procedures but also in bioanalytical and biomedical procedures. MILs are being used in biological/biomedical applications because of their non-toxicity, ability to mould themselves according to the usage and generally easyto- handle properties. This review aims to share these biomedical applications of MILs along with describing how the synthesis of MILs occurs and the important characteristics that these MILs should have.

Abstract: In addition to the economic losses because of insect pests, a significant part of insect pests can instantly lead to the deterioration and mildew of agricultural products, which all have great hidden hazards to human health. In view of insect pests, the principle means of control and prevention in China is spraying chemical agents. Nevertheless, spraying a large number of chemical factors to control insect pests for a long time will not only have a consequential impact on the ecological environment, but also make insect pests boost resistance, and because a large number of chemical residues on the surface of crops will also have an unfavourable impact on the human body. The detection and application of insecticidal proteins are of great significance for the progress of modern insecticidal science. This article studies the research progress of insecticidal proteins and considering their target pests, lists their common insecticidal utilization scenarios, and anticipates the development direction of insecticidal proteins in the future.

Abstract: The wide pharmaceutical activity of the bioactive heterocycles, which include nitrogen, oxygen, and sulphur and comprise five- and six-membered rings, has drawn the attention of medicinal chemists for several years. The therapeutic potential of bioactive heterocycles for a variety of disorders lies in their medicinal effects. The most prominent of them is Alzheimer's disease (AD), a neurodegenerative disorder that impairs memory and causes other psychiatric problems. Globally, there are around 54 million cases, and by 2050, that number is predicted to rise by 131 million. So far, donepezil, galantamine, and rivastigmine have indeed received FDA approval for use in the treatment of AD. In this regard, the pharmacophoric properties of heterocycle molecules are equivalent to those of galantamine mimics. Therefore, it is beneficial to create novel compounds containing these moieties and test their ability to inhibit acetyl and butyl cholinesterase. Diverse heterocyclic scaffolds may now have therapeutic potential for Alzheimer's disease. Recently, greener and more expeditious synthesis of bioactive heterocycles has drawn much attention because of the utilisation of environmentally benign protocols, thereby diminishing the usage of hazardous chemicals. In this review, we discuss the most pertinent findings about the "green" synthesis of heterocycles and their possible anti-activity against Alzheimer's.
