Pharmacological studies on the venom of the marine snail Conus lentiginosus Reeve, 1844

The bioactivities of the venom from Conus lentiginosus were studied from Mumbai coast, are characterized biomedically and pharmaceutically. Partial purification of the crude extract was carried out using DEAE cellulose anion exchange chromatography. The protein content of crude venom was found to be maximum 432.5 ± 1.58 μg/mL and minimum 80.2 ± 1.08 μg/mL. The mice bioassay for lethality was pe...

Project II : Ecological Modeling

where αu models the birth of the prey, βuv models death of the prey by being captured by predators, ρβuv models the rate of birth of the predators (which depends on how many prey are captured), and γv models the death of the predators. The basic model exhibits solutions which have periodic oscillating predator and prey populations. There is one non-trivial steady-state which is a center which i...

postnatal studies of bats (pipistrellus kuhlii and miniopterus schreibersii) & histomorphology and histochemistry studies of organs and diseases of (neurergus microspilotus and n. kaiseri)

1. to determine whether difference in birth body mass influenced growth performance in pipistrellus kuhlii we studied a total of 12 captive-born neonates. bats were assigned to two body mass groups: light birth body mass (lbw: 0.89 ± 0.05, n=8) and heavy birth body mass (hbw: 1.35 ± 0.08, n=4). heavier body mass at birth was associated with rapid postnatal growth (body mass and forearm length) ...

Metal (II) Complexes of Fluconazole: Thermal, XRD and Cytotoxicity Studies

We report thermal, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and cytotoxicity studies of complexes of fluconazole (FCZ) with Cu (II), Fe(II), Cd(II), Co(II), Ni(II), and Mn(II). From XRD measurements, FCZ and its metal complexes were identified as polycrystalline. Marked differences in the X-ray patterns of drug and its metal complexes revealed that the complexes are indeed different compounds and not just the m...
