Neela Thotha (Copper sulphate) is a mineral origin drug in Unani system of medicine (USM). Chemically, it known as copper sulphate that formulated CuSO4. It used by various scholars to manage different ailments effective and safe manner Mufrad (single) Murakkab (compound) form viz. Amrad Jild (skin disease), Chashm (eyes diseases), Nizam Hadm (GIT Tansuliya (sexually transmit Dimag (brain Tanff...

The effect of various concentrations of divalent cations on survival of gonococci in liquid medium was studied. The growth of Neisseria gonorrhoeae was inhibited by manganous chloride in concentrations above 1 X 10(-5)mol/l while the growth of control organisms such as Neisseria meningitidis and Escherichia coli was not inhibited by the same salt even at 1 X 10(-2)mol/l. Copper sulphate, cobalt...

The serum of a case of hyperglobulinaemia with negative thymol and zinc sulphate turbidity reactions was studied. The serum when added to pathological sera with high turbidity values brought about a marked reduction in the original turbidity values. Also, the serum did not give the usual copper proteinate precipitate when added to copper sulphate solutions. The anomalous protein fraction respon...

Restoration is increasingly considered an essential tool to halt and reverse the rapid decline of vital coastal ecosystems dominated by habitat-forming foundation species such as seagrasses. However, two recently discovered pathogens of marine plants, Phytophthora gemini and Halophytophthora sp. Zostera, can seriously hamper restoration efforts by dramatically reducing seed germination. Here, w...

Pathological findings and liver and kidney analyses confirmed that cattle had died of chronic copper poisoning on a farm in the north-eastern Transvaal. This is the first known published record of chronic copper intoxication of cattle in southern Africa. An epidemiological study revealed that a source of copper was air pollution which could have arisen from a nearby copper smelting unit. Buffal...

background: the development of toxicity tests regarding toxic responses of different fish species could be more effectively used in predictive toxicology and risk assessment. in this study lethal concentrations (lc50-96 h) values of copper sulphate an important toxic industrial pollutant, on capoeta fusca were determined. behavioral changes at different concentrations of cuso4 were determined f...

the research was accomplished in order to study behavioral and histopathological effects of copper on rutilus rutilus caspicus under experimental condition. the study was performed using water static method during 96 hours. 15 fish with averaged weight 2?0.5 g in weight were encountered to different concentrations (0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 mg/l) of copper. a group of fish was considered as control...

Sublethal toxicity of copper sulphate on carbohydrate metabolism was studied in selected tissues of freshwater mussel, Lamellidens marginalis. Levels of glycogen and pyruvic acid decreased while lactic acid showed an increase. Activities of LDH, SDH and MDH decreased while G-6-PDH activity increased. There appears to be a shift in the carbohydrate metabolism from aerobic to anaerobic type due t...
