Molluscs are important natural sources of many biologically active compounds. Giant snails (Achatina maginata) have been used in folklore medicine to treat liver diseases, anaemia, and constipation among other medicinal uses. The aim this research is extract identify bioactive compounds present Archachatina marginata. Ten giant African land were collected from a snail farm during the dry season...

“Vrikshayurveda”, an ancient literature collection of plant life science depicted importance kunapajala, a fermented liquid organic manure sourced from animal origin. It is excellent fertilizer influencing wide range crops with enhanced growth and development. During later days, “kunapajala” vegetarian ingredients, without nutrient compromise was developed standardized. includes ingredients viz...

Mushrooms are a good source of protein, dietary fibre, vitamins, minerals and phenolic compounds. However, mushrooms very perishable food the implementation preservation methods is essential to extend their shelf-life. The for can be classified into three categories: thermal (drying/freezing), chemical (edible coatings, films washing solutions) physical (packing, irradiation, pulsed electric fi...

Morels are well known due to their nutritional and food value since ancient human history. In this study, biochemical proteomic analyses were carried out on the ascocarp of Morchella tridentina Bres. For this, several M. collected from different sites Neelum Valley Azad Jammu Kashmir, Pakistan. Identification was confirmed by phylogenetic sequencing using nuclear ribosomal DNA bar-coding techni...

a simple and efficient method for synthesis of tetrahydropyrimido[4,5-b]quinoline derivatives via three component reaction of aromatic aldehydes, dimedone and 6-amino uracil derivatives using a catalytic amount of sulfonic acid functionalized nanoporous silica (sba-15-pr-so3h) is described. the advantages of this method are easy and clean work-up, high yield, mild reaction condition, reusable c...

One of the biggest challenges in public health is the rising number of antibiotic resistant pathogens and the lack of novel antibiotics. In recent years there is a rising focus on fungi as sources of antimicrobial compounds due to their ability to produce a large variety of bioactive compounds and the observation that virtually every fungus may still contain yet unknown so called "cryptic," oft...

background: salvia limbata is an aromatic herbaceous plant and grows widely in iran turkey and afghanistan. in the previous study, six flavones together with rosmarinic acid were isolated from the ethyl acetate and methanol extracts of s. limbata. in this report, we focused on the isolation and identification of the glycosylated sterols and the main accumulated amino acid of the species s. limb...

The edible mushroom Lentinula edodes (shiitake) contains many bioactive compounds. In the present study, we cultivated L. edodes mycelia in solid medium and examined the hot-water extract (L.E.M.) for its suppressive effect on concanavalin A (ConA)-induced liver injury in mice. ConA injection into the tail vein caused a great increase in the serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine am...

The green synthesis of 5-(4-aminophenyl)-4-aryl-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol was achieved in four steps, In first step, 4-amino benzoic acid refluxed in ethanol along with catalyst Conc. Sulphuric acid to produce ethyl-4-amino benzoate I. Further compound I refluxed with hydrazine hydrate in ethanol to produce 4-amino benzohydrazide II. Compound II refluxed in ethanolic potassium hydroxide with ca...
