Background and objectives: Turmeric has assisted in the control of inflammation pain for decades been used combination with other nutraceuticals to treat acute chronic osteoarthritis pain. Recently, effect turmeric, turmeric extract, or curcuminoids on musculoskeletal pain, either by themselves conjunction substances, reported. The aim this study was develop characterize nanoparticles (T-NPs) various parameters, both vitro vivo. Materials Methods: T-NPs were successfully synthesized...
Abstract Selenium (Se) is an important trace element that involved in controlling oxidative stress and inflammatory disorders. Gouty arthritis the inflammation pain within joints tissues caused due to accumulation of monosodium urate (MSU) crystals. This study aimed investigate antigout, antioxidant, anticoagulant, thrombolytic potential ascorbic acid-mediated Se nanoparticles (A-SeNPs). Different analytical techniques were used formation A-SeNPs. The antigout was carried out using MSU...
Background – Gilgit-Baltistan, the Northeast region of Pakistan, is well known for its floristic diversity, including members genus Artemisia. Artemisia a large, taxonomically complex ~500 species both herbs and shrubs. This study was conducted to determine phylogenetic position ten undescribed taxa from northern using nrDNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS), external (ETS) cpDNA intergenic (psbA-trnH) regions.Methods The relationships 28 separate combined data sets sequences three markers...
To change the recalcitrant nature of lignocellulosic material for maximum hydrolysis yield, a comprehensive study was done by using sulphuric acid as an exclusive catalyst pretreatment process. The enzymatic digestibility biomass [Water Hyacinth: Eichhornia crassipes] after determined measuring yield pretreated obtained from twenty four different conditions. These included concentrations (0.0, 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0%), at two temperatures (108 121 ºC) residence times (1.0, 3.0h).The highest...
This study was accomplished to scrutinize the pollen morphology of 15 species genus Artemisia family Asteraceae from Gilgit-Baltistan region Pakistan by means scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Results revealed grains with tricolporate shape, and characterized globular symmetry (ellipsoid ball shaped equatorial side three lobed rounds polar view) few exceptions. Additionally, pollens are marked reduced spinules on their surfaces which diagnostic character for Artemisia. In this study, seven...
Cellulase is an important bioprocessing enzyme used in various industries. This study was conducted with the aim of improving biodegradation activity cellulase obtained from Bacillus subtilis AG-PQ strain. For this purpose, AgO and FeO NPs were fabricated using AgNO3 FeSO4·7H2O salt respectively through a hydro-thermal method based on five major steps; selection research-grade materials, optimization temperature, pH, centrifuge, sample washed distilled water, dry completely oven at optimized...
The rapid synthesis of a library potent type II dehydroquinase inhibitors is described. Inhibitors were prepared <italic>via</italic> key quinate-derived ene-yne intermediate using Cu(<sc>i</sc>)-catalysed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) chemistry with variety aryl- and heteroaryl-azides.
Background: In various microorganisms, defense mechanisms have evolved against the commercially available antimicrobial agents with increased resistance. Natural antimi-crobial of plant origin are better alternatives when an infectious disease arises due to resistant microbial strains. Here, we evaluated efficacy total phenolics and flavonoids antioxidant potential Artemisia sieversiana Ehrhl Ex Willd. extracted methanol, ethyl acetate, ethanol, n-hexane, chloroform using soxhlet procedures...
