In the present study reports synthesis and development of 3-Chloro – N – ((5-chloro-1-tosyl-1H-benzo [d] imidazol – 2 – yl) methyl) – N arylquinoxalin-2-amines (5a-e) from 3-chloro-N-p-tolyl quinoxalin -2-amine (3) condensed with proporgyl bromide followed by adding 4-chloro-N1-tosylbenzene-1,2-diamine,by adopting simple procedure. All titled compounds were screened for their anti bacterial activity by using bacterial strins i.e Bacillus subtilis MTCC 441, Bacillus cereus ATCC 9372, E.coli ATCC 8739, and staphylococcus aureus ATCC 96, compounds 5c, and 4c, were proven highest zone of inhibition against bacterial strains and 5b and 4b were also proven moderate inhibition zone against above mentioned bacterial strains, and the structures of synthesized compounds were characterized by 1HNMR, 13CNMR And Mass spectral...

An efficient, cost effective use of Raney nickel (R-Ni) a widely used industrial catalyst for N-Alkylation using alcohols is highlighted here. The work describes the scope and capability of R-Ni in borrowing hydrogen reactions for Aniline and Benzyl alcohol. The reaction optimization is described using two techniques, Conventional and Design of experiment. The use of DOE for reaction optimization is an unique option described in this...

Raise in the multidrug resistance gave challenge to the treatment of tuberculosis with first line medication due to less response. Nanoparticle drug delivery has proven efficiency in improving the therapeutic efficacy of many drugs. Reduction of dosing frequency was achieved by applying drug delivery using Nano medicine and Green Nanotechnology. The present study aimed in the production of such drug conjugates of Isoniazid using interdisciplinary technology of nano medicine and green nanotechnology. Isoniazid Nano-conjugates were produced by simple incubation and formed conjugates were analyzed for the efficiency of the plant extract to conjugate the drug. The therapeutic efficacy of the conjugated drug was evaluated using luciferase Reporter phage assay against M.tuberculosis H37RV. High drug entrapment efficiency of plant extract was achieved, ranging from 85-95% and effective particle sized drug-conjugates, ranging from 246-356nm were formed. The relative light units were also less indicating the persistence of activity of the Isoniazid and the inhibition was 93%. Hence Isoniazid Nano-conjugates have the potential for TB Chemotherapy which could be a cost-effective method...

It is estimated that more than 170 million people are suffering from diabetes globally and this number is expected to double by 2030, and the greatest increase in prevalence is, however, expected to occur in Asia and Africa. Diabetes is the most common endocrine disease and its prevalence is reaching epidemic proportion worldwide. Tamarindus indica is a slow growing tree that is resistant to strong winds and perennial. The stem-bark extract of the plant is used locally for the management of diabetes. The saponin-rich portion of the stem-bark extract of Tamarindus indica L. was investigated for its hypoglycaemic action on experimentally induced hyperglycaemic Wistar rats. The oral LD50 of the extract was found to be 1,265 mg/kg. The extract lowered the Blood Glucose Level (BGL) in the three doses used (100, 200 and 400 mg/kg) and was significant at 400 mg/kg dose after the 8th and 16th hours. The 200 mg/kg dose significantly lowered the BGL at 24 hours p < 0.02. The saponin-rich portion of Tamarindus indica Linn...

Cerium oxide is an oxide of the rare earth metal which is widely used for several disorders. However, there are no complete toxicity studies done on it. The purpose of present study is to evaluate acute and Anti-hyper lipidemic activity of cerium oxide nano particles on Wistar albino rats. In this study, Cerium oxide was administered to six rats in different groups in different concentrations (100mg/kg and 200mg/kg) observed for 14 days. After the course, blood was collected and it was calculated for biochemical parameters like serum triglycerides, serum cholesterol, Very low density lipoprotein cholesterol (VLDL), Serum HDL cholesterol, Serum LDL cholesterol levels in the test and standard group of animals which were compared with ccl4 induced group of animals. The results showed that the mechanism of action of anti-hyper lipidemic activity of Cerium oxide nano particles on dose dependent...
