Problem statement: Although the diversity of marine Actinobacteria have been studied and biotechnologically exploited throughout the world, the studies on marine actinobacteria in Indian peninsula are largely unexplored. Of 9 maritime states in India, only 4 states have been extensively studied for the diversity of actinobacteria. Further, the studies on bioactive actinomycetes from saline soil...

Os inseticidas são agrotóxicos utilizados para controlar insetos prejudiciais às plantações agrícolas. Entretanto, o uso exacerbado de pode resultar em efeitos tóxicos à saúde humana e inúmeros impactos socioambientais. Diferentes ensaios toxicidade podem ser analisar efeito tóxico determinadas substâncias. Dentre eles, bioensaio com Artemia salina é considerado um teste rápido, confiável custo...

in the present work, the bioassay screening of the essential oil and various extracts of two plants including fruits of heracleum persicum desf. and rhizomes of zingiber officinale rosc. have been studied with brine shrimp test. there is only one report about cytotoxicity of h. sphondylium in literature and so h. persicum has been used as second selection. at first essentials oil and various ex...

Betulinic, ursolic and oleanolic acids isolated from the aerial parts of Eriope blanchetii (Lamiaceae) were subjected to different esterification reactions, yielding 12 C-3 position ester derivatives. All compounds were identified using spectroscopic techniques, such as IR, 1H-NMR and MS. The derivatives were further investigated for their antioxidant level, Artemia salina lethality and antimic...
