The phytochemical screening was carried out on the leaf extracts of Melia azadirachta, revealed the presence of active ingredients such as Phytol, Squalene, Oleic Acid, 2-Piperidinone, N-[4-bromo-n-butyl]. Leaves of Melia...

Athi tree leaves (Ficus relegiosa) powder carbon was used as an adsorbent for the removal of DNB-106 dye from an aqueous solution. The studies were carried out under various experimental conditions such as agitation time, dye concentration, adsorption dose, and pH to assess the potentiality of Athi leaves powder carbon (ATC) for the removal of DNB-106 dye from wastewater. A greater percentage o...

The macroscopical characters of the leaves, leaf constants, physico-chemical constants, extractive values, colour, consistency, pH, extractive values with different solvents, micro chemical test, fluorescence characters of liquid extracts and leaf powder after treatment with different chemical reagents under visible and UV light at 254mn, measurement of cell and tissues were studied to fix some...

In situ RuBisCO activity was analyzed in order to determine whether 2-carboxyarabinitol 1-phosphate (CA1P) interacts with the enzyme in dark-adapted leaves of Phaseolus vulgaris. Leaves ground to fine powder in liquid nitrogen were put directly into a reaction mixture containing a saturating concentration of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP) to preserve the activity of RuBisCO which was in the c...
