An experimental study was carried out to examine the biochemical changes in the fermentation broth during citric acid production by a mutant Aspergillus niger AB1801. The production of citric acid was increased upto 8th day of fermentation, and then declined. pH decreased continuously, dry cell weight followed continuous increment pattern. Amino nitrogen and urea nitrogen decreased gradually, but ammonical nitrogen increased...

Directly observed therapy (DOT) of tuberculosis patients talking their drugs is supposed to improve treatment completion and outcome .we compared DOT and Self Administered therapy (SAT), in which patients on the same drug regimen are not, observed taking their pills, to assess the effect of each on the success of tuberculosis treatment. This was the two year (2010 and 2011) retrospective study of tuberculosis patients admitted to the AH and RC.A total of 308 patients cases were analyzed. The majority of the cases were within 21-40 years TB patients were 38.96% of the total. Among the all TB patients with chronic illness others were 18(58.44%) more. Among 308 patients TB patients 131(42.53%) TB patients undergone DOT and 177 (57.46%) TB patient’s undergone SAT therapy. The comparative outcome between DOT and SAT were 110(86.61%) of cure and in SAT were 90 (57.32%). Only 5(03.93%) treatment failure, acquired drug resistance 01(00.78%), follow up lost were 11(08.66%) in DOT as compared to SAT 23(14.64%), 06(03.82%), 23(14.64%) respectively. There is no relapse and...

In present study, eugenol (major functional component of essential oil of Syzygium aromaticum (clove), at 2% level (v/v) was incorporated in peanut oil based coating to get antimicrobial emulsion. Eugenol emulsion thus prepared was applied on grapes and strawberries. After applying emulsion, reference fruits were kept in corrugated fiber boxes for 8 days for shelf life studies under ambient conditions (temperature 24-27°C; Relative Humidity 55±5%). Fruit samples were checked for their visible microbiological growth every day and sensory evaluation of the coated samples was done up to the day of initiation of visible microbial growth. Results revealed that eugenol emulsions did not produced desirable effect on the shelf life of grapes and...

Ethnopharmacological relevance: Calotropis gigantea is usedtraditionally to treat common diseases such as fever, rheumatism, indigestion, cough, cold, eczema, asthma, elephantiasis, nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea, either alone or with other medicines Aim of the study: To evaluate the antivenom activity of Calotropis gigantea plantextract against Vipera russelli snake venom Materials and methods: The lyophilized snake venom of Vipera Russelli was dissolved in saline and required concentrations were prepared. Lyophilized polyvalent snake venom antiserum was used as reference serum. The methanolic extract of Calotropis gigantea was evaluated for its efficacy to neutralize various actions of the venom like lethality, necrotizing activity, edema forming activity and haemorrahgic activity. Results: Oral administration of C. gigantea plant extract at dose levels 200 and 400 mg/kg body weight effectively neutralized the lethal effect of 2LD50 and 3LD50 of V. russelli venom in mice (in-vivo neutralization). In in-vitro studies, the plant extract at all dose levels, i.e. 100, 200 and 400mg/kg body weight effectively neutralized 2LD50 and 3 LD50 of Vipera russelli venom. Oral administration of...

Heterocyclic Compounds having a valuable place in a Heterocyclic Chemistry and Heterocyclic Compounds having an excellent properties such as drugs, dyes etc, These compounds shows anti-microbial, anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic, anti-hypertensive etc. properties. In present investigation, we have prepared 2-4-{[(substitutedphenyl)imino]methyl} phenoxy)acetohydrazide from amine of (4-{[substitutedphenyl)imino] methyl}phenoxy)acetic acid and Hydrazine hydrate in presence of ethanol. The intermediate (4-{[(substitutedphenyl)imino]methyl} phenoxy) acetic acid from (4-formylphenoxy)acetic acid and substitutedaniline by using ethanol as a solvent. Compound having an excellent properties regarding as per as anti cancer and HIV as compare to this compound. Physical properties of pure crystallized substance 2-4-{[(substitutedphenyl) imino]methyl}phenoxy) acetohydrazide like M.P., elementary analysis and spectral data of compound and such as IR and NMR will be evaluated and confirm the structure of...
