essential oils (eos) extracted from aerial parts of aster indamellus grierson, calamintha umbrosa benth. and erigeron annuus (l.) pres.were analyzed by gc, gc/ms. the major acetylenic constituent (cis-lachnophyllum ester) of e. annuus was isolated and characterized by 1h and 13c-nmr spectra. their toxicity and repellent effect against lipaphiserysimi was tested. oils of e. annuus and c. umbrosa...

The pharmacokinetics, oral bioavailability, and ex vivo antimalarial activity of mirincamycin isomers in a healthy rhesus monkey model were assessed to support lead optimization of novel nonhemolytic drugs for radical cure and causal prophylaxis of malaria. Fourteen male rhesus monkeys were randomized to four groups, which included cis and trans isomers by the oral and intravenous routes, with ...

The extent of psychiatric phenomena was assessed in three primary health care clinics in Calcutta, and the nature of the phenomena was explored with the aid of multivariate statistical techniques. The Self Reporting Questionnaire (SRQ) was used as the first stage and the Clinical Interview Schedule (CIS) as the second stage instruments respectively. The implications of the findings are discusse...
