The antimicrobial testing was carried out by "Disc diffusion method". Amongst the tested three extracts, chloroform extract showed high antimicrobial activity against E. coli, alcoholic extract showed high antibacterial activity against Pseudomonas aer...

Enantioenriched, highly functionalized cyclopropane derivatives were prepared by a simple and green approach using monosaccharide-based chiral crown ethers as phase transfer catalysts. The Michael-initiated ring closure (MIRC) reactions of diethyl bromomalonate with 2-cyano-3-phenylacrylate took place complete diastereoselectivity in the presence lariat derived from carbohydrates enantioselecti...

Hydroglycolic extract from inflorescence of Etlingera elatior (Zingiberaceae) (EE) was determined for its whitening and anti-aging potentials by studying its in vitro antioxidant capacity using two different assays, by investigating its in vitro anti-tyroisnase activity against tyrosinase, by demonstrating its in vitro anti-aging effect against collagenase, and by evaluating its in vivo skin wh...

BACKGROUND The present study was undertaken to study the larvicidal activity of different extracts of Nerium oleander leaves, and post-treatment temperature- toxicity relationship of these extracts against Culex pipiens. Further, the most potent extract was used to evaluate its biological and genotoxic activities. METHODS Crude extracts of N. oleander leaves were prepared using water, chlorof...

OBJECTIVE(S) We examined the effects of endurance exercise in the presence of Bunium persicum extract administration on lipid profile and cardiorespiratory capacity in hypercholesterolemic male mice. Materials and Methods : Forty male hypercholesterolemic mice were divided into four groups: Vehicle, Endurance exercise (EE), Bunium persicum extract (BPE), and EE + BPE. The exercise protocol was ...

the present study was conducted on efficiency of utilization of dietary energy for milk production in lactating crossbred cattle. 18 lactating crossbred cattle of early to mid-lactation, approximate body weight (375.39±23.43 kg), milk yield, parity and stage of lactation were divided into three groups of six animals each and were fed 0, 50 and 100% diammonium phosphate (dap) in the mineral mixt...
