Central and eastern Brazil is home to the cactus species Cereus jamacaru, also called mandacaru or cardeiro. It frequently reaches a height of 6 metres. For animal feed, a kind without thorns is utilized. The most typical type is quite thorny; however, if the thorns are The native Brazilian cactus Cereus jamacaru D.C., also known as “mandacaru,” grows naturally in the Caatinga biome and is characterized as a source of food and medicines used to cure kidney inflammation, urinary infection, and rheumatism. However, the antioxidant activity and phenolic chemicals have not yet been assessed. The current study’s phytochemical examination of the ethanolic extract to assess the phytochemical, antioxidant, and anti-diabetic effects of C. jamacaru root extracts showed the Presence of terpenoids and flavonoids, saponins, alkaloids, steroids, coumarin and carbohydrates. This study has demonstrated that C. jamacaru root extract contains primary and secondary metabolites that can be pharmacologically useful and possess some antidiabetic and antioxidant properties. It was also discovered that C. jamacaru root ethanol extract possessed antioxidant and antidiabetic...

Enzymes are biocatalysts that accelerate biotic reactions positively or negatively. Proteases are small types of enzymes that cleave peptide bonds. These proteases can be produced by microbes (fungi, bacteria, and viruses), plants, and animals. The catalytic site is only visible from the outside and is broadly dispersed on the surfaces of different cell types. Based on the position of the cleavage site in the putative substrate, these peptidases can be classified as endopeptidases or exopeptidases. These peptidases are used in a variety of industries, including laundry detergents, leather and fabric processing, food processing, baking, flesh tenderization, food additives, artificial sweetener synthesis, feed, cheese making and the dairy industry, soy sauce production, brewing and cereal processing, photography, environmental bioremediation, medical and pharmaceutical industries, plant pathology, nitrogen production, and so on. Proteases are classified based on physiological roles. Extracellular proteases breakdown down large proteins into smaller parts on the other hand, intracellular proteases helps in the regulation of...

Azolla is a fern plant through conducting 27 % of protein content and involves actively in bioremediation. So, this property of this plant is exploited in the production of chelated minerals. In this study, selenium-enriched azolla is evaluated with Japanese quails on the performance of growth and serological parameters. The present study is designed with 525 quails divided into 7 treatments, each with 3 replicates. Each replicate contains 25 birds. The evaluation was done from day-old chick to 5-week age in a deep litter farming system. The birds in each treatment are distributed in a randomized manner irrespective of gender, later grouped into control, 0.2, 0.3, and 0.4ppm organic selenium treatments, along with 0.2, 0.3, 0.4ppm inorganic selenium treatments sequentially. The body weight gain, feed intake and feed conversion rate were noted every week and significant changes were recorded. In performance trials we observed that 0.2ppm organic selenium shows good performance in body weight gain (P<0.013) and feed conversion rate (P<0.02) at a significant level. At 0.2ppm concentration of...

Introduction: Gold preparations are highly prized and often utilized for their tonic and revitalizing effects in Indian systems of medicine. Gold has both preventive and curative medicinal properties. The Kashyap Samhita, under the name Swarnaprashana, describes the usage of gold internally in children via the oral route. After birth, it is indicated in Lehan karma (supplementary feeding to improve nutrition, immunity and intelligence) and Jatkarma (newborn care). Now a day Swarnaprashana in children is getting huge publicity, and many trials are being conducted to evidence its use in children. Material and Methods: This review is in a narrative format and consists of all publications relevant to Swarnaprashana or Swarnabinduprashana, Suvarnabindu prashan, Suvarnavachayog, or Swarnavachayog that the authors identified through a systematic search of major computerized medical databases; no statistical pooling of results or evaluation of the quality of the studies was performed due to the widely different methods employed by each study. Result and Discussion: The present review of the studies proves the role of Swarnaprashana in enhancing cognition...

Nutraceutical is a word obtained from Nutrition and Pharmaceuticals. Nutrients are a feed constituent that helps to support the life of human beings or animals. Pharmaceutical components are non-toxic food constituents, including prevention and treatment of disease. They commonly inhabit the disorders associated with oxidative stress, for instance, cardiovascular disease, Diabetes, and Hypertension. Nutraceuticals possess substantial importance because of their expected safety and possible nutritional and therapeutic effects. Hypertension is the most frequent risk factor for cardiovascular disease involving coronary heart disease and stroke. There is a crucial role in utilizing single and integral nutraceutical supplements, vitamins, antioxidants, and minerals in the treatment of hypertension. These food supplements rein huge demand because they are less toxic and have long life treatment with dietary food. We have done a face-to-face survey on 33 medical stores. The survey results found that the most demanding nutraceutical is Mactotal, and the least demanding nutraceuticals are Beryl tone and Allvell-Z graph seed extract. The survey study also shows a list of Nutraceuticals that are...
