The effect of a standardized extract Bacopa monniera Linn. was assessed on rat brain frontal cortical, striatal and hippocampal superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) glutathione peroxidase (GPX) activities, following administration for 7, 14 or 21 days. effects induced by this (bacoside A content 82% +/- 0.5%), administered in doses 5 10 mg/kg, orally, were compared with the (-) deprenyl (2 p. o.) same time periods. (BM) dose-related increase SOD, CAT GPX all regions investigated, after...
Coastal systems are sensitive to direct and indirect impacts of climate change. Approximately 90% all coastal areas will be affected by change varying degrees. Nearly half the world's major cities located within 50 km a coast, population densities 2.6 times greater than those inland areas, with steep rise over years. While critical infrastructure is expanding, more social physical increasingly exposed climate-induced hazards. The interconnectedness interdependencies increase their systemic...
A model for the decomposition of azure-B by photo-Fenton reagent in presence ultrasound homogeneous aqueous solution has been described. The photochemical rate is markedly increased ultrasound. It a rather inexpensive wastewater treatment. effect different variables like concentration ferric ion, dye, hydrogen peroxide, pH, light intensity etc. on reaction observed. progress sono-photochemical degradation was monitored spectrophotometrically. optimum conditions were experimentally...
Cichorium intybus L. commonly known as chicory is one of the important medicinal plants used in Ayurvedic system medicine. It for treatment diseases involving a khapa and pitta doshas. Traditionally, C. inflammatory conditions, but there are only few vitro studies reporting anti-inflammatory activity roots chicory.Evaluation mechanisms involved it using vivo models inflammation.Albino Wistar rats either sex weighing 150-200 g were used. Ethanolic aqueous extracts prepared with help Soxhlet's...
The northwestern Himalayas (NWH) in India have low rice productivity (∼2 t ha −1 ) and quality due to poor crop nutrient management predominantly Zn-deficient soils. Hence, a field experimentation the NWH compared conventionally transplanted (CTR) system of intensification ( SRI) under three practices (NMPs), viz ., 1) farmers’ fertilization practice, FYM @ 5 + N:P 2 O :K 50:40:20 kg (FFP); 2) recommended dose fertilization, 10 90:40:40 (RDF); 3) RDF Zn using ZnSO 4 25 (RDF Zn). results...
To determine the in vitro free radical scavenging property and vivo diuretic effect of Triglize™ , a marketed polyherbal formulation experimental models.The aqueous extract (PHF) triglize was used for experiment. The antioxidant PHF were studied by LPS-induced radicals rat macrophages cells DPPH (2, 2-Diphenyl-1-Picrylhydrazyl) methods, respectively. with Lipschitz model using male Wistar rats.PHF significantly inhibited lipopolysaccharide -induced it showed moderate potential model....
Unlike dicots, the robust root system in grass species largely originates from stem base during postembryonic development. The mechanisms by which plant hormone signaling pathways control architecture of adventitious remain unknown. Here, we studied modulations global genes activity developing rice genome-wide RNA sequencing response to external auxin and cytokinin cues. We further analyzed spatiotemporal regulations key developmental regulators emerged our transcriptome analysis....
Aging is a multifaceted process that associated with progressive, lethal, and unalterable changes like damage to different molecules (DNA, proteins, lipids), cells, tissues, organs. It an inevitable but can be delayed by both genetic dietary interventions. Besides aging, premature death age-associated diseases dealt diet regulation the use of compounds inhibit stress responsiveness or promote repair signaling pathways. Natural offer repertoire highly diverse structural scaffolds hopeful...
Cyclooxygenase (COX) and lipoxygenase (LOX) are responsible for the metabolism of arachidonic acid into inflammatory metabolites, prostaglandins leukotrienes, respectively. The upregulation these enzymes in central nervous system has been demonstrated to be increased neuronal vulnerability degeneration. Kainic acid, a glutamate receptor agonist excitotoxicity oxidative damage via different mechanisms, is capable stimulating mRNA both COX-2 5-LOX brain. present study was designed effects COX...
The effect of various concentrations (3, 9, 27, 81, and 243 mg/kg) tungsten (W) on growth performance, biochemical constituents molybdenum (Mo) contents in wheat was observed. Lower doses (up to 9 showed promotory effects whereas higher retarded. An increment growth, biomass, chlorophyll carbohydrate Tungsten root shoot a very strong linear dependence the soil applied W contents.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the genetic variation and heritability selected agronomic traits among chickpea genotypes. Replicated field experiments were conducted for 60 genotypes during long and short rain seasons 2013 at Kabete Juja using alpha lattice design. Data collected days 50 % flowering, plant height, 75 % maturity, pods -1, yield ha -1 100 seed weight analysed using SAS 2013. Genotypes genotype by environment interactions showed highly significant (p <...
Controlled release formulations of imazethapyr herbicide have been developed employing guar gum-g-cl-polyacrylate/bentonite clay hydrogel composite (GG-HG) and gum-g-cl-PNIPAm nano (GG-NHG) as carriers, to assess the suitability biopolymeric hydrogels controlled devices. The kinetics from was studied in water it revealed that behaved slow compared commercial formulation. calculated diffusion exponent (n) values showed Fickian predominant mechanism formulations. Time for half loaded (t1/2)...
