AMELIORATIVE ROLE OF SELENIUM AND ZINC AGAINST REPRODUCTIVE TOXICITY DUE TO EXPOSURE TO A MIXTURE OF HEAVY METALS LEAD, CADMIUM AND ARSENIC IN MALE ALBINO RATS
Introduction: Reproductive organs are the major target of heavy metal toxicity; oxidative stress plays a vital role in induction of such toxicity. Toxicity due to chronic exposure to a low dose mixture of three heavy metal lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd) and arsenic (As) and ameliorative potentials of two antioxidant micronutrients selenium (Se) and zinc (Zn) were evaluated in male albino rats. Materials ...

SIMULTANEOUS ESTIMATION OF CIPROFLOXACIN AND METRONIDAZOLE IN BULK AND TABLET FORMULATION BY UV SPECTROPHOTOMETRY
Three simple and economical UV-spectrophotometric methods have been developed and validated for simultaneous estimation of ciprofloxacin (CIP) and metronidazole (MET) in a tablet dosage form using distilled water as a green solvent. The proposed methods were; simultaneous equation method (method A), Q-absorbance ratio method (method B), and area under curve method (method C). λmax of CIP & ME...

PROTECTIVE EFFECT OF D-PINITOL ISOLATED FROM AERIAL PARTS OF SOYBEAN PLANTS ON HAEMATOLOGICAL PROFILE AGAINST DOXORUBICIN INDUCED CYTO-TOXICITY IN MICE
The aim of this research was to examine the protective effect of D-Pinitol on haematological profile against Doxorubicin-induced cytotoxicityin mice. Doxorubicin is a chemotherapeutic agent valuable in treating various cancers regardless of its toxicity to normal cells, including hematopoietic suppression. Oxidative stress and generation of reactive oxygen species appear to be the reason for Doxor...

A PRELIMINARY IN-SILICO ANALYSIS OF OCIMUM SANCTUM FLAVONOIDS, ORIENTIN AND VICENIN-1, AS POTENTIAL DRUGS AGAINST SARS-COV-2 INFECTION
The SARS-CoV-2 virus is the causative agent of the Covid-19 pandemic. The major proteins of this virus, like covid main protease RNA dependent RNA polymerase, are being extensively studied with the hopes of finding an effective molecule that would bind to these proteins and lead to their inhibition. The inhibition of these critical viral proteins would hamper SARS-CoV-2 infection. With most of the...

EVALUATING THE EFFECTS OF COMMIPHORA MOLMOL (MYRRH) AGAINST OXIDATIVE DNA DAMAGE IN HUMAN LYMPHOCYTES
Oxidative stress is a condition that might predispose individuals to diseases, including cancer. The 8- hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) is an index that reflects DNA damage caused by oxidative stress in the body. In this study, Commiphora molmol (Myrrh) (C. molmol) (Myrrh) that belongs to the family Burseraceae were investigated for its potential favorable properties to blunt DNA damage induced by ...
