Rubber processing industry effluent represents a serious environmental pollution problem especially for underground and surface water. Wastewater collected from rubber processing industry was characterized for their pollution characteristics. Analysis showed that the biological oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), total dissolved solids (TDS), total suspended solids (TSS), total s...

The aim of this study was to synthesis of silver nanoparticles in the aqueous stem extracts of Caralluma fimbriyata and investigate its antibacterial activity. Nanoparticles are being used in many commercial applications. It was found that aqueous silver ions can be reduced by aqueous stem extracts of plant parts to generate to extremely stable silver nanoparticles in water. The chemical groups...

Leaf extract of 12 medicinal plants were obtained by using 10mM sodium phosphate buffer and studied for their antibacterial activity against 6 cariogenic pathogens. Among them, the extract from Streblus asper showed the most intensive activity. Antibacterial activity of Streblus asper was investigated by the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) test and the viable cell count method. MIC of St...

Free radicals include both Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) and Reactive Nitrogen Species (RNS).When free radicals are produced in a regulated manner in a healthy human body it is scavenged efficiently by antioxidant defense system. But excess generation of pro-oxidants by continuous chain reaction in the form of ROS and RNS cause several human diseases. The shift of the balance in the favour of p...
