Monitoring the Effectiveness of Water-Based Plants for the Inhibition of Metal
Abstract: The temperature performance profile of the plant extracts shows that inhibition efficiency increased with increasing temperature of the system until at about 323K at 9.00hrs immersion time where a decline in inhibition efficiency occurred implying the opposite at higher temperatures and longer immersion time. Corrosion rate parameters changed with rise in temperature and exposure – immersion time. Plots of rates of corrosion against the volume(s) of the test inhibitor(s) in …

Antibacterial, Cytotoxicity Studies of Azukia mungo (L.) Masam and Correlation with in silico Docking Studies
Abstract: Introduction and Background: Azukia genus plants rich in proteinaceous anti-nutrients like tannins (especially condensed tannins) has been shown to have anti-bacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and antineoplastic activity against lung and liver cancer cells. Five types of procyanidins (condensed tannins) have already been isolated from Azukia mungo and structurally elucidated. But its activity against the Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has not yet been shown. Hence we focus our work …

Phytochemical profiling and LC/MS analysis of Selaginella bryopteris (L.) Baker
Abstract: Selaginella bryopteris (L.) Baker, an endemic pteridophyte is found restricted to the Indian subcontinent mostly because of its environmental requirements of cool temperatures and optimum water availability. It is a drought-resistant species and shows curling in limited water supply reviving when water conditions are restored. This property makes this species a suitable plant for exploration of medicinal properties, although its restricted occurrence has limited this evaluation. The current study explores …

The synthetic fuel production using the new method of the Chlorella high quality concentration
Abstract: The microalga concentrates are unique for synthesizing of high quality fuel. The synthetic of high quality fuel production formed because of the possibility of extraction of the raw oil (synthetic fuel) from microalga’s high quality concentrates. The microalga concentrate of Chlorella is the most suitable material for synthetic high quality raw oil production. Existing methods of centrifugation or microfiltration of microalga Chlorella concentration are very expensive. The paper represents the …
