two dimensional thin layer chromatography on polyamide sheets is a useful method for identification of pth-amino acids which have very close rf-values. the solvent systems described here are particularly effective and have an edge over other solvent systems used for the separation of pth-amino acids. the solvent systems provide a clear separation of all pth-amono acids except lle / leu in a rel...

The methanol and chloroform extracts of Boerhaavia diffusa were prepared and investigated for TLC. It was concluded that the chloroform extract showed the better results for TLC in solvent system toluene : acetone : acetic acid. The major spots and their RF values were calculated.

The present study was aimed to develop the high performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC) finger print profile of methanol and ethyl acetate extracts of leaves of Cassia fistula. Chromatographic technique was used for separation of components from different extracts of leaves. This study was planned to develop a HPTLC fingerprint profile of extracts in different solvents such as petroleum e...

coronary artery disease (cad) is the most important cause of mortality and morbidity in the world. the knowledge of major risk factos can be useful in prevention of cad. there is no known major risk factof in many patients with myocardial infarction (mi). the dermatoglyphic pattern in patients with myocardial infarction is an interesting matter and little information is available about this rel...

The present paper attempts to evaluate the physicochemical and preliminary phytochemical characteristics of Anacardium occidentale (Linn.), belonging to family Anacardiaceae. Anacardium occidentale is a tree native to Brazil and also found in tropical countries like Malaysia and India. The plant is reported to have anti-fungal, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. However there are no ...

Zingiber zerumbet (L.) Sm. is a well known medicinal plant employed to cure various diseases. The Current study provides a detailed summary of pharmacognostical and phytochemical characters of rhizome to give clear standards for identification of the drug. The study revealed the presence of the oil cells in cortex and central cylinder region containing yellow to orange coloured oleo-resin is th...

Three of the factors limiting the rational use of herbal medicine are uncertainty on effectivity, uncertainty on safety and variation in quality of the product. Because many herbal medicines have been used over centuries by indigenous peoples, the safety and effectivity is frequently not such a big concern. With more people collecting and distributing herbal medicine, the offered product is how...

Its leaves contain important constituents like rutin, quisqualis acid, trigonelline, L-proline L-asparagine. Traditionally, the are used antipyretic, anti-flatulent, anti-inflammatory, anti-septic, anti-diarrhoeal. Modern pharmacological research...

autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder originating from early childhood; nevertheless, its diagnosis is in older ages. in addition to heredity, environmental factors are also of great significance in the etiology of the disease. dermatoglyphic patterns, albeit varied, remain stable for a lifetime and yield a large number of patterns upon examination. studies have shown a significant associatio...
