This research delves into the analysis of essential oil derived from Citrus limon leaves cultivated in northern region Bangladesh, focusing on their potential attributes. The was extracted employing microwave-assisted gravity station without using solvent. Optimization carried out terms time, temperature and power as a function yield. study revealed highest yield 2.5% after 50 min at 110ºC, maintaining microwave 300 watt. Twenty-four (24) phyto-components were identified by Gas Chromatogram-...
Introduction: Colocasia affinis Schott (Family: Araceae), found in the Asian region, is a traditional root vegetable consumed by locals and well-known as Dwarf Elephant Ear. Methods: For pharmacological exploration of this vegetable, four kupchan fractions (i.e. HSF, DCMSF, EASF, AQSF) from ethanolic extract C. were employed to vitro i.e. antioxidant, cytotoxicity, antimicrobial vivo antidiarrheal analgesic assays, followed phytochemical screening GC-MS protocol. Result Discussion: In...
Lignocellulosic biomass is widely grown in many agricultural-based countries. These are typically incinerated or discarded open spaces, which further may cause severe health and environmental problems. Hence, the proper utilization conversion of different parts lignocellulosic biomasses (e.g., corn wastes derived leave, cob, stalk, husk) into value-added materials could be a promising way protecting both environments. In addition, they have high-potential for myriads applications...
Oil Blending is a trendy method of retaining their visual appeal, which also enhances quality, stability, and nutritional content. The significance this study lies in its pioneering approach towards determining the optimal fatty acid ratio through blending oils extracted from Bangladeshi origin rice bran, sesame seed, mustard seed. Three blends were prepared, consisting unrefined bran oil (RBO), (MO), partially refined (SO) different proportions: 70:20:10, 50:30:20, 30:40:30, respectively....
The Haribhanga is one of the most renowned varieties mango native to Rangpur region Bangladesh. study aimed explore in vitro and vivo pharmacological potentialities methanolic extract Mangifera indica (Haribhanga) (MEMI) peel. antioxidant, antimicrobial, antiarthritic activities MEMI peel were conducted by 2,2‐diphenyl‐1‐picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging, disc diffusion, protein denaturation assays, respectively. was administered STZ‐induced diabetic mice for 7 days observation...
The core objective of this research was to determine the oil characteristics and nutrient contents Nigella sativa Trigonella foenum-graecum seeds. Characteristics seed oils revealed higher degree unsaturation as determined by gas liquid chromatography (GLC) reported herein major unsaturated fatty acids were linoleic acid (52.6% in N. 42.5% T. foenum-graecum), followed oleic (23.5% 20% while main saturated palmitic (16% 10.5% foenum-graecum). Triacylglycerols neutral lipids found be most...
Studies are being carried out on achieving the maximum quality of garlic through various approaches. In Bangladesh, new varieties (BARI 1–4, BAU-1, BAU-2, BAU-5) have been recently developed by artificial selection to enhance their quality. The present study aimed evaluate potency in terms bioactive properties and organosulfur compounds content using different bioassay GC–MS techniques while comparing them with other accessible (Chinese, Indian, Local). variety, BARI-3 showed highest...
Farmers in rural areas of almost all the districts Bangladesh cultivate different varieties edible plant karela to satisfy nutritional requirements. Herein, we report on characteristics seed oils and nutrients mineral contents seeds from three karela. Most physicochemical were significantly (P < 0.05) affected with samples tested. Seed displayed a higher degree unsaturation GLC reported herein, only five fatty acids identified. The profiles acid composition not wholly similar which...
Studies on the physico-chemical characteristics of seed oils Mesua ferrea collected from different districts Bangladesh revealed specific gravity (0.9287-09312), refractive index (1.4690-1.4739), solidification point [-4.0-(-4.3)], pour [-1.0-(-1.3)], cloud (5.5-6.0), flash (90-98), fire (110-116), smoke (44-47), iodine value (89.17-93.01), saponification (199.03-206.40), equivalent (271.80-281.86), acid (9.64-11.87), free fatty (4.85-5.96), ester (188.95-1.95.44), unsaponifiable matter...
Edible oils are vulnerable to oxidation-induced degradation, leading off-flavors, carcinogenic products, and reduced nutritional content. This work aimed prepare a blended oil (BO) from indigenous mustard sesame seeds extend the oil's shelf life boost its value. Four blends were formulated with (SO) (MO) in ratios of SO50:MO50, SO60:MO40, SO70:MO30 SO80:MO20. GCMS analyses showed that SO80:MO20 blend had an erucic acid content 4.22 %, which is below internationally accepted limit 5 ideal...
The core objective of this research was to determine the characteristics oils, nutritional composition and antimicrobial activities T. anguina S. mahagoni seeds. Physicochemical oils implied higher degree unsaturation in whereas, oil contained appreciable level unsaturation. Tri-acyl-glycerols neutral lipids were found be most abounded components recorded 86.2 91.3% for 87.0 89.4% mahagoni, respectively. GLC analysis showed presence fatty acids from series C16:0 C18:3 C20:0 which principal...

The aim of the work was a comparative study oil characteristics and nutritional composition seeds two local varieties ridge gourd collected from different districts Bangladesh: Prince (PRG) Hercules (HRG). Most physicochemical reported herein, seed oils both were significantly (p < 0.05) affected by sampling locations. Acylglycerol classes estimated to be monoacylglycerols (1.6-1.9% in PRG 1.4-1.6% HRG), diacylglycerols (4.0-4.6% 2.6-3.0% HRG) triacylglycerols (84.6-86.7% 86.7-88.3%...
The black soldier fly (BSF) Hermetia illucens (L.) (Diptera: Stratiomyidae) is a "crown jewel" in waste management because it rapidly bioconverts organic streams into nutrient-rich biomass. Bangladesh's inefficient has caused serious environmental issues due to the massive amounts of waste, mainly livestock manures and municipal generated daily. We need reliable BSF maximize our resources. To establish long-term, stable colony, we closely examined seasonal abundance life cycle features...
Background: Pressure Ulcer is one of the chief complications prolonged hospitalization patients, it occurs when localized tissue gets deprived circulation due to soft compressed between external surfaces and bony prominence for a time.
