Effect of Temperature on Inhibitory Efficacy of Tamarindus indica fruit extract on acid corrosion of Aluminium
Abstract: An attempt has been made to investigate the anti-corrosive propensity of ethanolic extract of Tamarindus indica fruit at elevated temperature between 303 to 343 K, so as to replace the exploitation of toxic chemicals as corrosion inhibitors. Inhibition efficiency has been observed significantly high (84.06%) at room temperature at concentration 0.45 %. The inhibition efficiency is found to increase with increasing concentration of extract and decrease with rise in temperature. …

Development and Validation of a New Stability-Indicating HPLC Method for the Determination of Rosiglitazone in Tablets
Abstract: Rosiglitazone (ROS) is an antidiabetic drug belonging to the thiazolidine class. A new stability-indicating high-performance chromatographic (HPLC) method was developed for the determination of ROS in pharmaceuticals, and validated for its suitability following the ICH guidelines. Chromatography was performed on a Chromatopack (250×4.6 mm; 5 µm particle size) column using phosphate buffer of pH 3.2 and methanol (70:30 v/v) as mobile phase pumped at a flow rate of 1 ml …

Determination of A More Efficient Method of Grafting Mangoes and Optimum Growth Environment for A Successful Graft Union
Abstract: AbstractMangoes (Mangifera indica) have traditionally been propagated through seeds but this process takes many years for trees to start bearing fruits (7–10 years). Grafting is used to shorten the juvenile period in which mangoes start bearing between as early as 1 to 3 years. Farmers believe that after grafting, grafted plants need to be placed in greenhouse for successful union of the graft and growth of the sprouts. Authors know …
