Abstract: Diabetes is a metabolic disorder with major complication associated with hyperglycemia, inflammation, foot ulcer, Nerve disorders and sexual depression Plant medicines are readily used in combination rather than in a single form to get maximum benefit from their combined potential. . Therefore a polyherbal suspension containing alcoholic extract of rhizomes of Curcuma caesia, Roxb whole plant of Evolvulus alsinoide ,seeds of Citrullus lanatus , leaves of Gymnema sylvestre, stems of Tinospora cordiofolia, fruits of Withania coagulans and seeds of Caesalpenia bonduc was prepared and evaluated for its antidiabetic activity. Antidiabetic activity was studied in Alloxan induced diabetic rats.............

Abstract: The aim of the study is developing women health in association with the use of probiotics as an adjuvant therapy in vaginitis treatment. The study is open label, randomized trial, pilot study conducted during the period of 6 months, it involved 37 women of child- bearing age (18-55) who were diagnosed as vaginitis either bacterial, fungal or trichomonial, each of them were randomly prescribed an antimicrobial with probiotics or an antibiotic/anti-fungal alone, labeled under two groups- group A (with probiotic) and group B (antibiotic/anti-fungal alone). Each subject was followed up to a period of 28 days. The swab test was done on day1 for diagnosis and repeated the swab test on day 28 for checking out the improvement and to monitor the recurrence. ECOFLORA, BIFILAC, BIOVAG are the different brands of probiotics used in the study along with local or oral antibiotic/anti-fungal. The 6-month cure rate for vaginitis in group A was 90.9% and group B was 33.33%. Among all the probiotics prescribed, ECOFLORA.............

Abstract: Introduction: Anesthesia is state of temporary induced loss of sensation which is used during surgeries. Aim: To estimate the drug wastage and cost of different anesthetics. Method: A Prospective observational study was done in a secondary care hospital of OBG and general surgeon department. The data was categorized based on different parameters like gender, age, prescribing drugs during hospital stay, route of administration, drug left and cost of drug left of anesthesia during hospital stay, types of operations and project appraisal. Result: Among all the 150 cases, the most commonly used anesthetic drug was bupivacaine in the age group of 20-30 years which was observed mostly in females. The drug wastage and cost analysis was observed in the following pattern of bupivacaine (50%) (Rs.876.85............

Abstract: Aurintricarboxylic acid, a dye developed for the colorimetric assay of aluminum ion, has diverse effects on many biological systems. Many of these effects are due to the complex chemical composition of the commercial grade material used in these studies. These components include small molecular weight species as well as progressively larger complexes derived from salicylate residues. Since certain pharmacological properties have been linked to structural subsets of the complex commercial mixture, the aurintricarboxylic acid-derived polysalicylates offer a unique opportunity for drug development.

Abstract: Biodiversity is fundamental and foundation to offering plant germplasmfor scientific investigations in the provision of useful biodata and biomedical data, both to benefit the flora and fauna. Studies were undertaken in the Kakamega forest, rich in diverse species of immense and unmeasurable resource at different levels of applications, for instance, alternative medicine provision and novel research studies in medicine to configure active biomedical potency of the plant species for disease and pests management .However, observations indicate urgent and remedial proactive measures should be put in place to attain the prime objective of the alternative medicine studies. These include but not limited to, protect and conserve the current biodiversity, provide relevant biomedical and floristic biodata (both at regional and national levels) though the creation of botanical gardens with valid and prospective specifications for posterity measures like the conventional and non-conventional models...........

Abstract: The phonological patterns of two populations of Cnidoscolus quercifolius Pohl were evaluated in the caatinga biome western Seridó region of Paraiba State, Brazil. Was analysis represented by activity indices for both population growing seasons (fall and sprout) and reproductive (flowering and fruiting), and also studied the intensity index Borchert, who evaluated the flow leaves. Phenology were tested against variations in precipitation, water potential and quantum efficiency of photosystem II. The bud in the two populations occurred in the late dry season and transition into the rainy season, with peak leafing in January and November 2010 and was negatively correlated with rainfall (rs = -0.54 p <0.05). Leaf fall showed the peak phase in October 2009 and 2010, showing............

Abstract: Increased use of pesticides all over the world is alarming and has attracted researchers due to the adverse effect on vital organs and reproduction. Cypermethrin is a synthetic Pyrethroid. The use of natural antioxidants in the reduction of oxidative stress and liver injury is gaining awareness because they are less expensive, readily available and exhibit no adverse effects. This research was thus undertaken to evaluate the hepatotoxicity of Cypermethrin and the inhibitory effect of Lycopene. All biomarkers in the group administered Cypermethrin only, showed significantly (p˂0.05) elevated levels of biomarkers, necrosis, degeneration of hepatocytes, infiltration of lymphocytes in the portal vein, indicating that Cypermethrin induced oxidative stress and liver injury in the exposed rats...........

Abstract: Tenebrio molitor Linnaeus (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) is a pest of stored products. This insect also infests stored food grains. According to researchers, T. Molitor motives losses up to 15% of grains and flour manufacturing globally. T. Molitor is controlled chiefly with chemical insecticides, but this approach has restrictions toward stored product insects due to residual toxicity and insect resistance. The study aimed to assess the potential of ethanolic extracts of Neem & Tulsi on different concentrations for their repellency and insecticidal activity against T. Molitor Average mortality share indicated that the extracts brought on large mortality and repellency on the treated insect and bioassays additionally indicated that the poisonous and repellent impact used to be once as soon as proportional to the concentration and higher concentration...........

Abstract: Pharmaceuticals have gained much of the attention in the present scenario due to two chief reasons; first because of their therapeutic power and second because of their ecotoxicity levels. We thus planned this study so as to not only consolidate a list of the most usually consumed drugs in the Indian hospitals but also monitor their risk values, which would help in assessing their ecotoxicity. For this out of the 198 most frequently consumed drugs, 127 were given the risk values based on PEC and PNEC. The risk values highlighted that 77 out of 127 drugs were in the Hazardous category and 50 were Non hazardous. Also out of these 127, 70 were bioaccumable. Next, since antibiotics...........
