The purpose of the present study was to formulate and evaluate donepezil loaded bio-nanoparticles for effective treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. For the preparation of bio-nanoparticles biomaterial was isolated from fruits of Carica papaya by an economic method. The biomaterial recovered from the concentrate was subjected for various physicochemical properties like color, solubility, ...

in this study, mathematical modeling of hot air-drying of thin-layer papaya (carica papaya l.) slices with 5±1 mm thickness pretreated in osmotic solution (50% sucrose) was investigated. thin-layer drying was conducted under three different drying temperatures of 40, 50 and 60 °c at a constant air velocity of 0.9±0.1 m/s and absolute humidity of 0.6 ± 0.02 g of water/kg of dry air. it was found...

Lipase from papaya (Carica papaya) latex (CPL), Candida antarctica lipase B (Novozym 435, NOV) and Rhizomucor miehei lipase (Lipozyme IM 20, LIP) were used as biocatalysts for the esterification of caprylic acid with straight-chain saturated C(4)-C(18) alcohols and unsaturated C(18) alcohols, such as cis-9-octadecenyl (oleyl, C(18:1), n-9), cis-6-octadecenyl (petroselinyl, C(18:1), n-12), cis-9...

Papaya (Carica papaya) is an economically important fruit crop that mostly planted in tropical and subtropical regions. Major diseases of papaya, such as the papaya dieback disease (PDD), ringspot virus (PRSV) disease, sticky (PSD), have caused large yield economic losses papaya-producing countries worldwide. Postharvest also contributed to decline production. Hence, there urgent need secure pr...

Batik wastewater contains a high concentration of dye that comes from the batik dyeing process. In this study, papaya seeds were applied as natural coagulant to reduce remazol red in wastewater. Dried characterized using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). The coagulation method used batch pH range 1-6. FTIR spectra showed contained compounds with -NH2 and -COOH functional groups. r...

In vitro efficacy of five indigenous plants namely Bishkatali (Polygonum hydropiper), Neem (Azadirachta indica), Papaya (Carica papaya), Korolla (Momordica charantia) and Mahogany (Swietenia macrophylla) were studied against the development of Ascaridia galli eggs from July 2007 to May 2008. Fresh juice, extracts and dust of leaves were tested. Fresh juice of leaves were trialed at 5%, 10% and ...
