Antibacterial Activity of Enicostemma Axillare Against Wound Pathogens
Abstract: The leaves extracts of Enicostemma axillare are used in traditional medicine for treatment of various infections. The antibacterial activity detected was against S.aureus, E.coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, P.vulgaris and K.pnemoniae. Wound swabs obtained from ten injured patients at Government hospital, led to the isolation of bacteria using standard methods, the microorganisms were isolated. Then chloroform, methanol and aqueous extract of Enicostemma axillare against S.aureus, E.coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, P.vulgaris and K.pnemoniae exhibited …

Ternary Amino Acid Metal Complexes: Structure and Role in Yeast Metabolism
Abstract: Two ternary complexes designated as Ter1 and Ter2 were synthesized using minimal optimal methods wherein two separate amino acid ligands L-phenylalanine and L-lysine were mixed with chromium sulphate hexahydrate designated as Cr3+ and two routes were designed for the synthesis of both the complexes. For the synthesis of Ter1 L-phenylalnine was reacted with Cr3+ which was in turn reacted with L-lysine and for the synthesis Ter2 the reverse procedure was …
