EVALUATION OF ANTIPEROXIDATIVE POTENTIAL OF ASCORBIC ACID ON BUSULFAN-INDUCED LIPID PEROXIDATION USING 4-HYDROXY-2-NONENAL AND NITRIC OXIDE AS MODEL MARKERS
The study was designed with an aim to evaluate the antiperoxidative potential of ascorbic acid on busulfan-induced lipid peroxidation. The study was performed in vitro using goat liver as lipid source. This evaluation was done by measuring the 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4-HNE) and nitric oxide (NO) content of liver tissue homogenates as markers of lipid peroxidation. The study reveals the lipid peroxida...

ANTIMICROBIAL ACTIVITY AND PHYTOCHEMICAL SCREENING OF HYPTIS SUAVEOLENS
Plants have served as a source of new pharmaceutical products and inexpensive starting materials for the synthesis of some known drugs. Components with medicinal properties from plants play an important role in conventional Western medicine. In the ethnopharmacological approach, local knowledge about the potential uses of the plants is very useful as compared to the random approach where indigenou...

DESIGN, SYNTHESIS AND EVALUATION OF SOME NEW ISOXAZOLES, CYANO-PYRIDINES AND 1, 5 BENZOTHIAZEPINES AS ANTIMICROBIAL AGENTS
The title compounds (7a-f), (8a-f) and (9a-f) have been prepared from chalcones (6a-f) having s-triazine nucleus. These chalcones on cyclisation with hydroxyl amine hydrochloride in the presence of alkali and malononitrile in the presence of ammonium acetate give isoxazoles (7a-f) and cyanopyridines (8a-f) respectively. Chalcones (6a-f) on condensation with 2-amino thiophenol in the presence of gl...

ANTI-NOCICEPTIVE ACTIVITY OF METHANOLIC FRACTION OF ETHANOLIC EXTRACT OF CROCUS SATIVUS STIGMAS IN MICE AND RATS
Background: Extensive use of analgesics like non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, opioid is associated with undesirable side effects often limiting their use. Hence the search for indigenous safer analgesic agent is ongoing. It was considered worthwhile to evaluate analgesic activity of methanolic fraction of ethanolic extract of Crocus sativus (CSEEMF) stigmas. Objective: This study was conduct...
