Background This paper presents the first quantitative ethnobotanical study of flora in Toli Peer National Park Azad Jammu and Kashmir, Pakistan. Being a remote area, there is strong dependence by local people on practices. Thus, we attempted to record folk uses native plants area with view acknowledging documenting knowledge. The aims were compile an inventory medicinal methods which herbal drugs prepared administered. Materials Information therapeutic properties was collected from 64...
Abstract In the present work, silver nanoparticles were prepared by using extract of Camellia Sinensis. The contains phytochemicals which are mainly polyphenols acting as natural reducing and stabilizing agents leading to formation uniformly dispersed stabilized nanoparticles. synthesis was significantly influenced impact pH, well temperature conditions. It found that at pH 5 25 °C, different morphologies (spherical, polygonal, capsule) sizes formed. However, with increase in from °C 65 but...
Plant-mediated nanoparticles are gaining popularity due to biologically active secondary metabolites that aid in green synthesis. This study describes a simple, environmentally friendly, dependable, and cost-effective production of silver utilizing Cucumis sativus Aloe vera aqueous leaf extracts. The extracts vera, which worked as reducing capping agent, were used biosynthesize (AgNPs). formation surface plasmon resonance peaks at 403 405 nm corresponds the colloidal Ag nanoparticles....
The peri-urban landscape is a highly dynamic area between the urban zone and rural belt. heterogeneous natural around cities provides several ecosystem services, but progressive urbanization affects it results in loss of biodiversity, greenery, related benefits. This study attempts to quantify social amenities associated with services Gujrat district, Pakistan, by using Contingent Valuation Method (CVM) show that for well-being community. Such recreational opportunities represent are...
Abstract Green-synthesized nanoparticles have a tremendous antimicrobial potential to be used as an alternative hazardous fungicides. In this study, the green synthesis of silver (AgNPs) was performed by using Moringa oleifera leaf extract reducing and stabilizing agent. The synthesized AgNPs were subjected different characterization techniques. UV-visible spectroscopy confirmed surface plasmon resonance band in range 400–450 nm, zeta analysis revealed that ranged 4–30 nm size. Scanning...
Abstract The current study was conducted to assess the potential of ginger rhizome extract ( Zingiber officinale ) for synthesis silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) through green method and its mitigating activity against pathogenic bacterial strains. AgNPs were synthesized a simple one-step approach characterized by UV-Visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), transmission electronic microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive X-rays spectroscopy (EDS). PXRD TEM results showed face...
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...
Abstract Seed morphology was described in detail for 12 species belonging to 5 genera of tribes Astragaleae and Trifolieae (Leguminosae; Papilionoideae) using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) evaluate the taxonomic relevance macromorphological micromorphological seed characters. The study aims search diagnostic ultrastructural features that may help elucidate identification. For SEM analysis, morphological characters including form shape, color size, ornamentation, epidermal cell...
The flowering phenology of plants is influenced by the unique set environmental variations, and therefore, elucidation important driving factors important.The study area Dhirkot (western Himalaya, Pakistan) explored to record interactions among vascular current climate along temporal gradient from March-2015 February-2018.A total 38 randomly selected representative sites were visited timing response compared with mean monthly climatic data.Multivariate classification ordination tools used...
The phytosociological survey of western Himalayan subtropical and moist temperate forests Tehsil Harighel, District Bagh Azad Jammu Kashmir, Pakistan was carried out during 2015-2017.Sampling done by using random stratified sampling technique at 12 different sites.Based on importance value twelve plant communities were recognized.They merged into three associations cluster analysis Detrended correspondence viz.Olea -Dodonea -Micromeria association, Pinus-Oxalis-Dactylis association...
To report the relationship of vegetation structure and environmental gradient physiochemical properties soil at Nikyal valley, Azad Jammu Kashmir .A survey natural valley was undertaken. Phytosociological conducted by using Braun-Blanquet's approach. The study also investigated its with altitude edaphic factors. floristic data analyzed cluster anlaysis, detrended correspondence analysis canonical CANACOO 5.0.A total 110 plant species 13 stands were merged into five major associations as dema...
Abstract Medicinal plants are used as an important source of medicines in pharmaceutical industry. Rubia cordifolia is widely to cure diabetes mellitus. Present study was aimed investigate the antihyperglycemic effects different fractions R. leaves and analyze its antioxidant effect phytochemical composition. Male albino mice were randomly distributed into seven groups ( n = 7). Group-I normal control, group-II Alloxan (100 mg/kg)-induced diabetic group-III standard drug (Glibenclamide 0.5...
Palynological features of tribe Astagaleae L. have been observed with scanning electron microscopy (SEM), to assess that can be used re-examine the placement and taxonomic position tribe. The palynomorph attributes 10 species included in three genera Astragaleae (Astragalus L., Glycyrrhiza Oxytropis DC.) are investigated. assignment genus was also reevaluated based on pollen characters. Pollen appear prolate, prolate-spheroidal, subprolate. Polar axis size (P) varies from 31.3 μm ±1 17.5...
