This study presents essential oil composition of three Melaleuca species namely, bracteata F. Muell, fulgens R. Br. subsp. steedmanii and leucadendron (L.) L. collected from different regions Pakistan. The chemical oils was analyzed by GC-FID GC–MS. Eugenol methyl ether identified as a principal component in M. (82.3%), (87.8%) (95.4%) oils. In vitro antibacterial studies were done agar well diffusion microdilution method the tested exhibited bacteriostatic bactericidal effects against...
The consumer sensitivity toward application of synthetic colors led to exploitation food grade bio-colors from bacteria. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic, gram-negative bacteria that secrete a variety redox-active phenazine pigmented compounds, which are significant for biological activities. Pyocyanin, water soluble blue green pigment producing P. was screened aquatic habitats isolation Pakistan, identified and compared by 16S rRNA gene sequence genetic variability. similarity...
Efficient synaptic transmission at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) requires topological maturation of postsynaptic apparatus from an oval acetylcholine receptor (AChR)-rich plaque into a complex pretzel-shaped array branches. However, compared to NMJ formation very little is known about mechanisms that regulate maturation. Recently process in vivo transformation pretzel has been reproduced vitro by culturing myotubes aneurally on laminin-coated substrate. It was proposed AChR clusters...
The hydrodistilled essential oil from Xanthium strumarium L. leaves was analysed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Nine out of twenty two constituents were identified X. oil. main components the β-caryophyllene (17.53%), α-cadinol (6.66%), spathulenol (6.09%), limonene (5.66%) and 1,3,5-trimethyl-2[2-nitroallyl]benzene (3.29%). Phytol (2.42%), α-muurolene (2.08%), copaene (1.47%) present in appreciable amounts. E,E,Z-1,3,12-nonadecatriene-5,14-diol (0.27%) minor amount. displayed high...
A coordination polymer, [Cu(tmen)(succ)]n·4nH2O (1) (where succ2- = succinate dianion, tmen N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine), was prepared by reacting CuCl2·2H2O, succinic acid (H2succin) and tmen, characterized elemental analysis, UV-visible spectroscopy, FTIR thermogravimetric (TGA) single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. The copper(II) ion in 1 has a distorted cis-CuN2O4 octahedral environment which the metal is bonded to chelating molecule four O atoms from two bridging,...
Phytopathogenic fungi are serious threats in the agriculture sector especially fruit and vegetable production. The use of plant essential oil as antifungal agents has been practice from many years. Plant oils (PEOs)
AbstractAbstractThe present study aims to analyze the chemical composition of essential oil from Callistemon viminalis (Gaertn.) G. Don leaves and evaluate its antioxidant antimicrobial potential. The was analysed by GC-FID GC-MS. Twenty three components were identified representing 98.2% total components. α-Pinene (31.4%) found as a major component followed 1,8-cineole (24.9%), p-cymene (15.9%), α-terpineol (11.2%), limonene (5.7%) α-phellandrene (4.3%). exhibited good activity inhibiting...
Magnesium doped titania (MDT) composites with varying magnesium weight percentages (1-5 wt. %) were synthesized through a very simple and economical route of sol-gel method. The reactants used for making alkoxide precursor titanium tetrachloride whereas nitrate was doping into in mixture solvents i.e. ethyl alcohol water. optimum conditions maintained preparing sol pH 3 60 ºC temperature constant stirring 2 hours. gel obtained after drying the each sample calcined at 500 two powdered...
Introduction: Panton Valentine-Leukocidin (PVL) toxin is secreted by Staphylococcus aureus and mostly associated with skin soft tissue infections (SSTI). This study aims to find out the prevalence of lukS/F-PV gene, which encode PVL from strains SSTI, burn wounds nasal colonizers out-patients measure antimicrobial susceptibility S. isolates.
 Methodology: an analytical observational cross-section was conducted July 2014 June 2015 at four tertiary care hospitals PCSIR Laboratories...
Beet root (Beta vulgaris) is an excellent source of natural red colorant.In the present work beet dye was prepared in powder form and then candies were using this as food color.The stability studies both, performed at different storage conditions 4 o C, 25 45 C for eight weeks.Betanin content (%) measured to evaluate color which showed maximum retention betanin stored 4°C while lowest %age observed 45°C showing that higher temperatures deteriorated.Stability pH also monitored three (4°C,...
Bioethanol was produced at pilot scale from sugarcane bagasse by using Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain. The maximum obtained yield 0.31 gp/gs after the fermentation of hydrolyzates microbial fermenter having capacity 30 L under controlled pH 5.5±0.2 and Temperature 35°C. conversion lignocellulosic biomass to bioethanol requires pretreatment biomass, Enzymatic Hydrolysis Fermentation process. Both alkaline acidic techniques (NaOH+H2O2) with different compositions were used in this study....
