effects of pongamia pinnata, an indigenous plant used in ayurvedic medicine in india on the temporal variations of circulatory lipid peroxidation products and antioxidants in ammonium chloride-(ac)-induced hyperammonemic rats has been studied. experimental rats were divided into control, ac-treated, those treated with ac + ethanolic leaf extract of p. pinnata (ppet), and ppet-treated. the chara...

Indonesia has 14 million ha of degraded and marginal land, which provides very few benefits for human wellbeing or biodiversity. This land may require restoration. The leguminous tree Pongamia pinnata syn. Milettia (pongamia) potential producing biofuel while simultaneously restoring land. However, there is limited information on this consideration. paper aims to address the scientific knowledg...

Possible effect of an ethanolic root extract of Pongamia pinnata (L) Pierre (P. pinnata) on oxidant-antioxidant status and histopathological changes in acute ischemia-reperfusion injury in the rat forebrain have been investigated. Further, its effect was also assessed on long-term cerebral hypoperfusion-induced changes in anxiety, cognitive and histopathological parameters. Cerebral post-ischem...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Pongamia pinnata, a legume tree, has many traditional uses and is a potential biodiesel plant. Despite its importance and the availability of appropriate molecular genetic tools, the full potential of Pongamia is yet to be realized. The objective of this study was to assess genetic diversity among 10 systematically characterized candidate plus trees (CPTs) of P. pinnata from...

BACKGROUND Biodiesel production using Pongamia pinnata (P. pinnata) seeds results in large amount of unused seed hull. These seed hulls serve as a potential source for cellulose fibres which can be exploited as reinforcement in composites. METHODS These seed hulls were processed using chlorination and alkaline extraction process in order to isolate cellulose fibres. Scanning electron microsco...

Electro Discharge Machining (EDM) is a noticeable machining practice among created unconventional machining procedures for intricate, complex profiles in "hard to machine" materials, similar to heat-treated steels, composites, superalloys, ceramics, composites, carbides, and so on. In EDM, the material expulsion of the cathode is accomplished through precise controlled electric discharge (the s...

Objective of the study was to assess the antidiabetic activity of a polyherbal formulation in alloxan induced diabetic rats. Methods: The antidiabetic activity of a polyherbal formulation in alloxan induced diabetic rats was assessed using Alloxan βcytotoxin induced chemical diabetes in a wide variety of wister albino rats. Result: The polyherbal formulation contain the following plants leaves ...
