OPTIMIZATION, EVALUATION AND STABILITY STUDY OF NUTRACEUTICAL POWDER FORMULATIONS DEVELOPED FROM EDIBLE SEED AND LEAFY- VEGETABLE SOURCES
Nutraceutical term is a combination of terms nutrient and pharmaceutical. There is a wide scope in applying pharmaceutical formulation parameters to nutraceuticals. Amongst the variety of nutraceuticals available, powder form of nutraceuticals are most popular. The nutraceutical powder mixtures can contain many ingredients, of which the nutrient source contents are generally present in more than 5...

THREE-DIMENSIONAL QUANTITATIVE STRUCTURE ACTIVITY RELATIONSHIP STUDIES ON DIVERSE STRUCTURAL CLASSES OF NATURAL FLAVONOIDS AS AMV AND HIV REVERSE TRANSCRIPTASE INHIBITORS USING CoMFA AND CoMSIA
In this study, comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) and comparative molecular similarity indices analysis (CoMSIA) were performed on a series of 73 experimentally reported natural flavonoid derivatives as AMV and HIV Reverse transcriptase (RT) inhibitors with pIC50 values ranging from 4.00 to 5.92. Based on alignment, highly predictive CoMFA and CoMSIA were obtained with cross-validated q...

SPECTROFLUORIMETRIC STUDIES ON THE INTERACTION OF MOXIFLOXACIN WITH HERRING SPERM DNA
Moxifloxacin (MOX) is a fourth-generation synthetic fluoroquinolone antibacterial agent with many important therapeutic properties. Fluorescence measurement was used to study the interaction of MOX with herring sperm DNA (Hs-DNA) in Tris-HCl, buffer of pH 7.4. The intercalative binding mode and a static quenching mechanism were confirmed by the Stern-Volmer quenching rate constant (Kq) of 5.61...

SYNTHESIS OF NEW SERIES OF THIENYL ACRYLATE DERIVATIVES VIA BAYLIS-HILLMAN REACTION AND EVALUATION OF ANTIMICROBIAL ACTIVITY
A series of new Thienyl acrylate compounds were synthesized via Baylis-Hillman reaction and tested to demonstrate in vitro antimicrobial activity. Some of these compounds exhibited a very good activity against Gram positive strains. The structure of these newly synthesized compounds were conformed by 1H NMR, IR, Mass and Elemental analysis, some of them were also confirmed by 13C NMR....

CYTOGENETIC STUDY OF CHROMOSOMAL ABERRATIONS ASSOCIATED WITH ACUTE LEUKEMIA
The most common cause of death is bone marrow failure. Chromosomal analysis is essential for the diagnosis, response to treatment and prognosis of leukemia. Conventional karyotyping which shows the structural, numerical and compound aberrations have improved the genetic diagnosis of leukemia. The bone marrow samples from patients (2-60yrs) of 53 patients (32 male and 21 female) suffering from vari...

THE EFFECT OF DOXYCYCLINE HYDROCHLORIDE ON MMP-2 AND 9 IN EXPERIMENTALLY INDUCED PERIODONTITIS – AN ANIMAL STUDY
The periodontal tissues undergo constant changes of remodelling when subject to bacterial infection and the resultant host response. The balance between enzymes secreted by the host such as matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their antagonists tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) are major contributors to the progression of periodontal destruction. A sub-type of MMPs referred to gelatin...

HYPER ACCUMULATION OF CADMIUM IN SOLANUM NIGRUM L. AND THEIR EFFECTS ON PHYTO-CHEMICALS AND ANTIOXIDANT ENZYMATIC ACTIVITIES
In the pot experiment, Solanum nigrum L. treated with different concentration of Cd showed high accumulation of Cd in plant. Growth of plant was not significantly affected up to ≤ 50ppm Cd treated plant, The trends of Cd accumulation in plant were leaf>shoot>root with increasing concentration of Cd and DAS. Plant accumulates 298, 92 and 58 ppm of Cd after 60DAS in leaf>shoot>root re...

SYNTHESIS, ANTI-VIRAL AND CYTOTOXICITY STUDIES OF SOME NOVEL N-SUBSTITUTED BENZIMIDAZOLE DERIVATIVES
A series of novel N-substituted benzimidazole derivatives were synthesized and screened anti-viral activity against a HIV -1 and -2 in MT-4 cells. New compounds were synthesized through modifying the N-1 hydrogen of benzimidazole moiety with the substitution of sulphanilamide, sulphadimidine, sulphamethoxazole, 2-aminopyridine, pthalamide, benzamide, nicotinamide, anthranilic acid and 2- marcapto-...

EVALUATION OF PHYTOCHEMICALS, REDUCING POWER, ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITY AND IN-VITRO LIPID PEROXIDATION ACTIVITY OF WHEAT GRASS JUICE
Oxidative stress is a condition due to excessive production of free radicals than the ability of the antioxidant system to counteract them. Antioxidants scavenge and suppress the deleterious effects of free radicals. Both exogenous and endogenous sources of antioxidants are important in pathological conditions. Exogenous antioxidants include dietary sources and even include medicinal plants. These...
