Comprehensive Chemical Profiling and Pharmacological Evaluation of Two Selected Medicinal Plants Leaves (Persea americana, Curcuma longa) Using GC-MS Techniques

1.0 Background of Study Medicinal plants have long been a cornerstone of traditional medicine and modern drug discovery. With over 80% of the global population relying on plant-derived medicines for primary healthcare [1, 2], the significance of these natural resources cannot be overstated. Among the wide variety of medicinal plants, the leaves of Avocado (Persea […]

Phytochemical Screening and Pharmacognostic studies and Antidiabetic activity of Meshashringi (Gymnema sylvestre (Retz.) R.Br. ex. Sm.) Leaf and Stem Components

Introduction Phytochemicals are bioactive substances that are derived from plants.They are referred to as secondary metabolites.[1] Bioactive components are naturally produced by all plant parts, including the stem and leaves.[2] [3] Gymnema sylvestre, another names is Gurmar, it is a Hindu word that means ‘sugar destroyer’.[4] Where the English term “Gymnema” is originates. Gymnema sylvestre

Long-Term Safety and Efficacy of Stimulant Medications in Pediatric ADHD: Population-Based Cohort Study with Systematic Review

ADHD constitutes prevalent neurodevelopmental disorder affecting 5.29% children globally [1]. Core symptoms (hyperactivity, impulsivity, inattention) manifest across multiple settings causing significant cognitive, academic, behavioral impairment [9]. Untreated trajectory includes academic failure, social dysfunction, risk-taking behaviors [12]. Stimulantmedications modulate dopamine/norepinephrine neurotransmission representing first-line pharmacotherapy despite tachycardia, hypertension, psychosis concerns [3,4]. This systematic review synthesizes comprehensive long-term safety evidence

Exploring the Allelopathic Potential of Rice for Sustainable Agriculture: A Review

Introduction: In 1937, Austrian scientist Hans Molisch coined the term “allelopathy” to describe the chemical interactions occurring among plants. This ecological process significantly influences how plants adapt and coexist within their natural environments. [1],[2]. Allelopathy is a natural ecological phenomenon that has been observed and utilized in agriculture for centuries[3],[4]. The effects of allelopathy can

Evaluation of Biomass Stock in Two Differently Managed Forests of Nepal: A Case Study from Sindhupalchok District, Nepal

1. Introduction A carbon sink is a carbon pool from which more carbon flows in than out [1-3]. Forests can act as sink through the process of tree growth and resultant biological carbon sequestration. Activities like afforestation, reforestation (AR), sustainable forest management (SFM), and Conservation and Enhancement of forests acts as carbon sinks. Carbon source

Quantification of Above- and Below-Ground Carbon Stocks in Selected Community Forests of Nepal: A Case Study from Community Forest and Government Managed Forest of Sindhupalchok District, Nepal

1. Introduction Carbon is the term used for the C stored in terrestrial ecosystems, as living or dead plant biomass (aboveground and belowground) and in the soil. C=(0.50)*biomass. This means about 50% of plant biomass consists of Carbon [1-4]. To convert carbon in to CO2, the tones of carbon are multiplied by the ratio of

Spatial Distribution and Seasonal Periodicity of Freshwater Algae in Telangana Lakes

INTRODUCTION:- Phytoplankton are photosynthetic floating organisms in aquatic environments both freshwater and seawater. Plankton algae are microscopic suspended plants that live at the mercy of the water movements .[1] Their photosynthetic activities remove carbon dioxide from the environment and release oxygen, thus they are responsible for mitigating some of the effects of increased carbon dioxide

Ethnobotanical Survey of Medicinal Plants and Practices of Traditional Healers in North Pemba Region of Zanzibar: Implications for Sustainable Use and Conservation

1 Introduction Medicinal plants constitute a fundamental component of primary healthcare for millions of people worldwide, particularly in regions where biomedical services are limited or culturally less preferred [1, 2]. According to the World Health Organization, up to 80% of the population in developing countries relies on plant-based traditional medicine for basic healthcare needs [1].

Qualitative and Quantitative Phytochemical analysis, Fluorescence Study and TLC of Barleria prionitis L. and B. cristata L. (Acanthaceae)

Medicinal plants represent a rich reservoir of bioactive compounds that play a vital role in traditional healthcare systems and modern drug discovery. Members of the family Acanthaceae are widely recognized for their therapeutic applications, largely attributed to their diverse secondary metabolites, including alkaloids, flavonoids, phenolics, terpenoids, glycosides, and steroids [1,2]. Barleria prionitis L. and B.
