The present study was carried out to evaluate phytochemicals of pods of Leucaena leucocephala. The phytochemical analysis was performed using 50% ethanolic extracts of pods powder of Leucaena leucocephala. Quantitative analysis of phytochemicals like phenols, flavonoids and tannins was done. Phytochemical analysis revealed the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, phenols, tannins, saponins, carbo...

Hydrangeae Dulcis Folium, the fermented and dried leaves of Hydrangea macrophylla SER. var. thunbergii MAKINO, suppressed D-galactosamine-induced liver injury by 85.2% when added to the diet at 1% and fed to rats for fifteen days. The hepatoprotective effect is more potent than that of a milk thistle extract and turmeric powder. Some fractionated extracts showed hepatoprotective activity in the...

The production technology of powder cellulose (Arbocel) and microcrystaline cellulose (Vivapur) and their application in the composition of direct compression tablet mass was provided. The function of silicified microcrystaline cellulose type Prosolv in the direct compression process of dry plant extract was discussed. An analysis of the chemical structure of cellulose fiber (Vitacel) enabled d...

A filter based on the Hankel Lanczos Singular Value Decomposition (HLSVD) technique is presented and applied for the first time to X-ray diffraction (XRD) data. Synthetic and real powder XRD intensity profiles of nanocrystals are used to study the filter performances with different noise levels. Results show the robustness of the HLSVD filter and its capability to extract easily and efficiently...

Encapsulated Salvia officinalis L. powder (SESP) was developed from extract obtained by supercritical fluid extraction (SFE), and it compared with commercial sage of hydro-distillation (HESP). The optimised conditions 30 MPa at 50 °C for laboratory scale SFE were found to generate the highest yield 40.96 ± 0.84%. later applied in upscaled extraction, which yielded about 30.10 1.33% extract. Lar...

significant dropping of infectious disease is owned greatly to antibiotic development industry. due to prevalence of drug resistance organisms alongside with other problems, scientists are focusing on medicinal plants. medicinal plants and their antimicrobial components are attractive alternatives for antibiotics. in the present project, the antimicrobial effects of methanolic extract and fract...

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of garlic oil (Allium sativa), turmeric powder (Curcuma longa Linn) and Monensin on Total apparent digestibility of nutrients in Baloochi lambs. The experiment was designed as a 4 x 4 Latin square using 4 ruminally baloochi lambs with 4 treatments in four 28-d periods. Treatments were control (no additive), garlic oil (0. 4 g/d), monensin...

Yeast extract powder (YE powder) is particularly used in culture media for the cultivation of microorganisms found in milk or other dairy products. The present study was intended to explore the influence of biofield energy treatment on the physicochemical and spectral properties of YE powder. The study was accomplished in two groups; first group was remained as control, while another was subjec...

Eclipta prostrata Linn. (Asteraceae) popularly known as "Bhringaraj" is a very useful medicinal plant in India. The aim of the present study is to evaluate the anti-inflammatory activity of ethanolic extract of leaves of Eclipta prostrata. The anti-inflammatory effects were investigated by employing acute inflammatory model; Carrageenan induced paw edema and Sub-acute inflammatory model; formal...

The quantitative Rietveld analyses of twenty samples of CAC from four different manufacturers over the world, one synthetic mixture and a NIST standard were performed using synchrotron radiation. As compared with conventional XRD, synchrotron powder diffraction permitted to find new minor phases, improve the characterization of solid solutions of iron rich CAC phases and reduce preferential ori...
