Abstract: Chlorophytum borivilianum belonging to the family Liliaceae is commonly known as safed musli. It is a perennial rhizomatous herbs widely distributed in pan tropical region which containing pharmaceutical important compound saponins. Safed musli is an endangered medicinal herb value for its dried roots possesses immune-modulatory and aphrodisiac properties that form an important ingredient of herbal tonic. Root culture, callus established from micro propagated plants of C.borivilianum on MS medium supplemented with 1 mg/l IBA+10% CM & 0.5 mg/l 2, 4 + 15% CM and Leaf base & Root are explants. Growth kinetics of explants.............
Key words: Chlorophytum borivilliaunm (Safed musli), Murashige and Skoog, Indole Butyric Acid, Coconut milk, Plant tissue culture, carbon emission.

Abstract: The present study focused on genetically studies of endemic and near endemic medicinal plants from Saint Katherine Protectorate, Egypt, using ISSR and RAPD markers. The three plants Nepeta septemcrenat "near-endemic", thymus decussates "near-endemic" and Phlomis aurea "endemic" were collected from Wadi Elfaraa, Saint Katherine, Egypt. For RAPD-PCR analysis five primers has been evaluated. A total of 35 DNA bands were detected, 17 bands were polymorphic, 18 were monomorphic. The percentage of polymorphic bands ranged from 25% to 72.72% with an average of 44.18%. The amplified DNA bands ranges in size between 89 to 1457 bp. For ISSR analysis, DNAs of the three selected plants were subjected to PCR against.............

Abstract: The present study was used to design to cure cancers by the treatment of Chinese star anise (illicium verum) extraction (not Japanese star anise) and vegetables (Leaf Turnip) in relation with vit.C antioxidant activity. Hepatotoxicity was produced by using Phenobarbital while vit.C analysis from star anise, leaf turnip, lemon juice, lemon peel and lemon pulp was done by iodometric titration method. It was observed that lemon and leaf turnip are mostly used in diet contain antioxidant activity while illicium verum was rarely used in diet contain more antioxidant activity as compare to others. Rats were given compound according to their body weight as 1mg/kg b.w. After 21 days of treatment behavioral activity was monitored by locomotors activity.............
