Aromatic herbs have long played an important role in the lives of Himalayan tribal peoples, providing both food and medicine. The chemical composition of the essential oils of Skimmia lauriola (leaves) growing in the Himalayan region of Northern Garhwal has been investigated. The rapidly growing plants were collected in Tehri Garhwal’s Dhanolti district. Hydro distillation […]

The goal of this study was to see how different extracts of the whole plant of Borreria hispida (Linn) affected lipid levels in high-fat rats. Borreria hispida (Linn) dry powder was extracted using a Soxhlet extractor with various solvents (PE, EA, and methanol), and the crude various extract was used for hypolipidemic activities. All of […]
The goal of this study was to look at Cordia platythyrsa’s roots and stem barks in order to improve the chemiotaxonomy value of the Cordia genus. Phytochemical analysis of Cordia platythyrsa (Boraginaceae) roots and stem barks resulted in the discovery of two new cinnamates, cordicinnamate A compound 1 and cordicinnamate B compound 2, as well […]
The levels of nitrates and nitrites in drinking water from two local government areas in Ilorin, Kwara State, were measured using a HACH DR/EL 5 Spectrophotometer over the course of four months. The borehole has an average nitrate (NO3-N) content of 0.185 mg/L and a nitrites (NO2-N) value of 0.044 mg/L. The well’s mean nitrate […]
Kidney stones are a very frequent ailment that affects many people. It causes health concerns such as acute discomfort, urinary blockage, and infection, all of which have a negative impact on people’s well-being. It can be treated with allopathic and natural medications, lithotripsy, open surgery, and other methods. Medicinal plants are also used in this […]
The rising usage of fossil fuels has prompted a search for alternate energy sources in recent years. Microalgae has emerged as one of the potential sources of biofuels from algae, and it is favoured since it is environmentally friendly and sustainable. Spirulina and chlorella microalgae oil was extracted using a pyrolysis process at 350°C, and […]
Nanoscience and nanotechnology have seen tremendous progress in research and applications in recent years. There is growing hope that nanotechnology, when used to medicine, will lead to substantial advancements in illness diagnosis and treatment. Drug delivery, both in vitro and in vivo diagnostics, nutraceuticals, and the development of more biocompatible materials are all expected applications […]
Spin glass behaviour, thermal microcracking, magnetic roughness, and high resistivity are all characteristics of iron titanate, a metal pseudobrookite. Pseudobrookite is a polycrystalline pseudobrookite that has a wide range of uses. The electrical resistivity and dielectric properties of pure iron titanates prepared with the rutile form of titanium oxide and sintered at two temperatures, 1000oC […]
Batch adsorption tests were done with iron(III) loaded cellulose nanocomposite bead and alizarin red S, of various concentrations, from an aqueous environment in order to examine the efficacy of metal modified bio–nanocomposite bead for removal via retention of anionic dye. The bead’s spectral and surface characteristics were studied. Using response surface methods and a full […]
Dunn, Hankins, and Ghowsi discovered separation when ions migrate in the opposite direction of electroosmosis and ions travel faster than flow, finally separating them and reaching the detector. A similar type of electrokinetic chromatography termed reverse direction MECC has been developed for the separation of p-xylene and toluene (micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography). The effect of […]
