In the present work we have developed a new method for the determination of some Antineoplastic agents i.e. capecitabine, cytarabine, etoposide, doxorubicin hydrochloride and methotrexate in pure form and in their pharmaceutical preparations like xabine (Tab.), xeloda (Tab.), cytabine (Inj.), cytaraside (Vial), etosid (Tab.), peltasol (Inj.), zodox (Vial), oncodox (Inj.), biotrexate (Inj.), and...

Abrus precatorius is the native plant of India and used in many ways in the Indian Ayurvedic system of medicine. This seeds of the species is dormant due to hard seed coat. So the aim of the study is to remove seed dormancy and enhance germination capacity within a short period. To overcome the problem of dormancy, seeds were scarified by seed scarifier, sand paper, hot water treatment, DMSO an...

The potential biodegradability of several vegetable oil-based polymers was assessed by respirometry in soil for 60–100 days at temperatures of 30–58 C. Films of soybean oil and linseed oil which were oxidatively polymerized (Co catalyst) on a kraft paper support were 90%–100% mineralized to CO2 after 70 days at 30 C. Mineralization of polymerized tung oil to CO2 was much slower than soy or lins...

A unique method has been developed for internally heating hybrid electric vehicle batteries at cold temperatures using high frequency alternating currents (AC). The poor performance of these batteries in cold climates is of major concern because they suffer a huge loss in capacity. Another symptom of this low performance is a dramatic increase in the series resistance of the battery, RB, as the...

Present study consists the, effect of temperature (10-30C), salinity (15-35 psu) and biofilm on the settlement of Enteromorpha flexousa zoospores. Settlement of zoospores was significantly (p<0.05) influenced by both temperature and salinity. Highest percentage of settlement occurred at 25C and 30 psu respectively. Subsequently the influence of biofilm was evaluated at the optimum 25C and 30 ps...

Background: Clinical studies have shown that adverse events in early life are quite stressful and can lead to the development of psychiatric disorders, such as anxiety, adolescence adulthood humans. Experimental models maternal deprivation (MD) rats be a useful tool for understanding how these period behavioral changes adulthood. Aims: The objective this study was evaluate long-term effects Zin...

In the present work advanced oxidation process, photo-Fenton (UV/H2O2/Fe) system, for the treatment of wastewater contaminated with oil was investigated. The reaction was influenced by the input concentration of hydrogen peroxide H2O2, the initial amount of the iron catalyst Fe, pH, temperature and the concentration of oil in the wastewater. The removal efficiency for the system UV/ H2O2/Fe at ...
