Triphala churna is a poly-herbal preparation that has anantiquity of usage in the conventional Indian medical system. It is rich in antioxidants and has excellent therapeutic efficacy. According to ayurveda, the churna is made using the raw ingredients Amalaki (Indian Gooseberry), Haritaki (Indian Hog Plum), and Bibhitaki (Vibheetaki) in an equal proportion (1:1:1). The present investigation purpose was to establish the Triphala’s antimicrobial effect on different types of bacterial stains and its antioxidant effects. Numerous cross checks examinations have been conducted, such as phytochemical detection, physico-chemical analysis, pharmaceutical analysis, to evaluate herbs’ quality attributes, including formulations’ assurance and effectiveness. A comparison of the antioxidant and antibacterial capabilities of polyherbal drug’s aqueous and ethanolic extract follows. Antioxidant activity of Triphala churna was established by FRAP assay and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl free radical scavenging methods. By using broth dilution, antibacterial potential was assessed. Triphala reported the presence of valuable bioactive components, including phenols, alkaloids, and flavonoids, which may be in charge of certain biochemical activities, was found, according to the results. Ascorbic acid-like...

Acne vulgaris is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the pilosebaceous unit that affects the major oil gland-containing areas, such as the face, back, and trunk. It involves increased sebum production and hair follicles abnormally desquamate as a result of rising androgen levels that coincide with puberty. It is generally characterized by, the formation of seborrhea, comedones, inflammatory papules, pastures, nodules, and lesions. Propionibacterium acnes and Staphylococcus epidermidis have been identified as bacteria that cause acne inflammation by generating pus. Staphylococcus aureus contributes to causing inflammation in acne. Herbal formulations have growing demand in the world market So, the current research focuses on developing and assessing a herbal face wash against the acne vulgaris and its etiologic agent. The ethanolic extract of Turmeric (rhizomes), Neem (leaves), Black pepper (fruit) and Nutmeg (fruit) was prepared by using a maceration process and formulated into a topical gel. The plants have been used in the formulation the having good anti-microbial, anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory activity. The gel was formulated with different concentrations of the...

Lead comes in a category of toxic heavy metal which acts as a pollutant when present in high concentration in the environment and cause severe effects on the human body. Due to its continuous use its level increases and serves as a serious threat for the society. Lungs and skin are the first organs which get affected by Lead toxicity. Lungs are the most important and sensitive part of human therefore the toxic effects of lead toxicity on lungs cause severe damage. Garlic (Allium sativum) with medicinal properties is being used for various human ailments since ancient times. Due to its anti-cancerous, antidiabetic, antimicrobial, antioxidant activities helps in reducing the lead toxicity in the lungs as well. Garlic is rich in many components such as sulphur compounds, amino acids, vitamins, protein, trace elements thereby making it a potent therapeutic agent. Since, the therapeutic properties of garlic has not been considered up to its best possible level against heavy metal toxicity therefore, this article presents the toxicity of Lead on...

The present study is reported the antioxidant activity of oxazole derivatives. Oxazole are five-member heterocyclic ring containing nitrogen and oxygen as a hetero atom. Due to binding with a wide spectrum of receptors and enzymes easily in biological systems through various non-covalent interactions, oxazole-based molecules are becoming a kind of significant heterocyclic nucleus, which have received attention from researchers globally, leading them to synthesize diverse oxazole derivatives. Oxazole have been reported to possess diverse biological activities like antimicrobial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory and anticancer activity. In this research work some heterocyclic like 4-(substituted benzylidene)-2-(pyrazin-2-yl) oxazol-5(4H)-one with potent derivatives for 100 ug/ml are 4-(4-methylbenzylidene)-2-(pyrazin-2-yl) oxazol-5(4H)-one (PA-7), 4-(3-bromo-4-hydroxy-5 methoxybenzylidene) -2-(pyrazin-2-yl)oxazol-5(4H)-one (PA-13) and are 4-(5-Oxo)-2- (pyrazin-2-yl) 4(5H)-ylidene) methyl) benzonitrile (PA-15) and for 200 ug/ml 4-(4-fluoro benzylidene)-2-(pyrazin-2-yl) oxazol-5(4H)-one (PA-4), 4-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxy benzylidene)-2- (pyrazin-2-yl) oxazol-5 (4H)-one (PA-8) and 4-(3-bromo-4-hydroxy-5 methoxybenzylidene) -2-(pyrazin-2-yl) oxazol-5(4H)-one (PA-13) shows promising anti-oxidant activities. The method mainly used as hydrogen peroxide radical scavenging activity. Antioxidant scavenging effect of synthesized derivatives also compared with standard Ascorbic...

This study investigates the presence of bioactive compounds present in the tubers of Curcuma zedoaria using GC-MS analysis. Different compounds, including alkaloids, tannins, flavonoids, and proteins, were identified using the preliminary phytochemical screening for aqueous, ethanol and methanol extracts. The present study reports the antimicrobial activity analysis using aqueous, ethanol and methanol extracts. The results show that the ethanol and methanol extracts showed relatively enhanced results. The extracts were subjected to GC-MS analysis, and antibacterial properties for the extracts were analyzed. Bioactive compounds such as 1,2 cyclopentanedione, 2(5H)-furanone, hexadecanoic acid, succinic acid, oleic acid, pyrrolidine etc., were identified through GC-MS. These compounds exhibited various therapeutic functions such as anticancer, anti-inflammatory, and anti-microbial activity. The antibacterial assay showed a considerable zone of inhibition for the ethanolic extracts in the case of K. pneumonia and B. subtilis. Hence, these crude extracts can be used as a better and alternative source, which can be used in herbal medicines. The study concluded that C. zedoaria tuber contains various bioactive compounds. Therefore, this tuber...
