Combined extracts of Amaranthus spinosus roots and Dolichos biflorus seeds at two different doses were administered to adult male rats to assess the structural and functional activity of epididymis. Biochemical studies were made throughout the experiment. Sperm motility was decreased markedly in the cauda epididymal fluid and the sperm counts were reduced in both caput and caudal segments. Epid...

The pollen calendar of Agra was recorded with special reference to allergenic significance. Pollen grains of 35 species belonging to 23 angiosperm families have been identified out of a total catch of 24,220/m3 of air annually. High occurrence of pollen grains in air belonged to Asteraceae (5222/m3) and Parthenium hysterophorus contributed the maximum (17.91%) of the total airspora. Higher coun...

We report here the application of a medicinally important plant Amaranthus spinosus for the synthesis of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). Different concentrations of ethanolic leaf extract of the plant were reacted with aqueous solution of HAuCl4·4H2O under mild reaction conditions. Synthesis of AuNPs was confirmed from the UV-Vis study of surface plasmon resonance property of the colloidal solution...
