ION EXCHANGERS: A USEFUL TOOL FOR SEPARATION AND SIMULTANEOUS PURIFICATION OF LYSOSOMAL CYSTEINE PROTEINASES, CATHEPSINS B, H AND L.
Lysosomes of mammalian tissues contain a number of cysteine proteinases such as Cathepsins B, H and L, which participate in intracellular protein degradation and are involved in various pathological disorders. These proteinases have been purified to ~ 1600 fold with ~25% yields from goat liver. These Cathepsins having similar molecular weight (~25,000 Da) were obtained as a single pool after initi...

EFFECT OF NITROGEN, PHOSPHORUS CONCENTRATIONS, pH AND SALINITY RANGES ON GROWTH, BIOMASS AND LIPID ACCUMULATION OF CHLORELLA VULGARIS
Microalgal like Chlorella vulgaris, being a unicellular green algae, is been widely studied for nitrogen and phosphorus removal and as potential feedstock for biodiesel production. This not only saves water from eutrophication but also becomes a good source of biodiesel. Hence, if two approaches are combined we can overcome the major challenge of both eutrophication and energy crisis. In the pre...

COUMARINS: AN OVERVIEW OF MEDICINAL CHEMISTRY. POTENTIAL FOR NEW DRUG MOLECULES
Fusion of a pyrone ring with a benzene nucleus gives rise to a class of heterocyclic compounds called Benzopyrones, of which two distinct types are recognized: (1) benzo-α-pyrone commomly called coumarins and (2) benzo-ϒ-pyrone called chromones or flavanoids, latter differing from former only in the position of the carbonyl group in heterocyclic system. Coumarins have attracted considerabl...

FLAVONOIDS FROM ASTRAGALUS GENUS
In this review our main focus is on flavonoid groups which are one of the main active constituents found with other active constituents like saponins and polysaccharides, while poisonous groups are nitro-compounds, indolizidine alkaloids and the seleniferous derivatives in Astragalus genus. It is well established fact that flavonoid possess many biological activity such as antiallergic, anti-infla...
