The present study aims to enumerate the ethno-medicinal uses of plants by the Irular communities residing around the Thiruvallur district. The medicinal use of (49) plants belonging to 39 families was identified and recorded by the tribes, along with their botanical identities and methods of drug preparation. The drugs administered locally to heal...

The objective of this work is eco-friendly synthesis of Carbon/Copper oxide nano composites (C/CuO nano composites) from the aqueous extract of Aristolochia bracteolata (ABLPAE) via response surface methodology (RSM). Here we optimized various parameters to find out the absorption maximum value using RSM technique. Then the synthesized C/CuO nano c...

Nanotechnology is a relatively new field which is making advancements each day. It is making a huge impact on our day-to-day lives. Nanoparticles possess unique properties which makes it viable to use it in a wide variety of fields such as in cosmetics, parasitology and catalysis. We used a plant-mediated, nature-friendly method which does not invo...

In recent decades, several scientists focused their process towards nanoparticles synthesis by using various sustainable approaches. Cocos nucifera (C. nucifera) was one of the versatile trees in tropical regions which also can act as a thrust quencher in all over the world. Cocos nucifera coir was one of the waste by-products in all coconut-refini...

Insect pests bear harmful effects causing great loss to the agricultural crops, stored agricultural products and vector mosquitoes can cause diseases to human. Plants possess an array of vast repository of phytochemicals and have been used to cure many diseases and to control the infestation of insect pests from time immemorial. Plants are easily b...

Abstract The aim of this study was to screen different solvent extracts of Cluasena excavata (leaves) to display potent antioxidant activity and also the total phenolic and flavonoid contents in order to find possible sources for future novel antioxidants in food and pharmaceutical formulations. Measurement of free radical scavenging activity (RSA)...

Currently phytochemical approach for the synthesis of metal nanoparticles plays a major role. In this manuscript phytochemical synthesis of Ni-Pd bi-metallic nanoparticles (Ni-Pd NPs) were subjected for various biological applications like pesticidal, larvicidal and ovicidal activities. The synthesized Ni-Pd NPs were confirmed by various characteri...

Methanolic extract of Cocos nucifera (C. nucifera) were collected using Soxhlet apparatus. C. nucifera methanolic extract was used to prepare Nickel nanoparticles (Ni NPs). Eco-friendly synthesized Ni NPs were confirmed by several analytical techniques such as UV–Visible spectroscopy (UV–Vis), Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray...

Objective: To evaluate the antifeedant, oviposition deterrent, ovicidal and larvicidal activities of benzene, dichloromethane, diethylether, ethyl acetate and methanol extracts of Indian medicinal plant, Caesalpinia bonducella (C. bonducella) at different concentrations against Lepidopteran agricultural field pest Helicoverpa armigera (Lepidoptera:...

Objective: To evaluate the pesticidal activity of antifeedant, oviposition deterrent, ovicidal and larvicidal activities of benzene, dichloromethane, diethylether, ethylacetate and methanol extracts of Rivina humilis at different concentrations against agricultural polyphagous pest Spodoptera litura (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) (S. litura). Methods: An...

In the present study the fingerlings of Puntius tetrazona was exposed in the various concentrations and their impact on pigmentation was assayed in the laboratory. The feed was determined against P. tetrazona to various concentrations. Four types of feed was prepared by adding carrot (C-10, C-20, C-30, C-40 and C-50%), beet root (B-10, B-20, B-30,...

The aim of the present study was to ascertain the length and weight relationships of freshwater ornamental fish (135 nos.) which belongs to 7 different families; 18 genera and 25species. The correlation coefficient exhibited allometric (+,-) and isometric patterns in different types of fish species assessed in the present study. The fish were measu...
