Abstract: The aim of this study was to investigate the bioethanol yield per unit mass of feedstock for the three generations of bioethanol feedstock. The first-generation feedstock has readily available sugars for fermentation whereas the second and third-generation feedstocks are composed of cellulosic material that needs to be broken down into simple sugars before fermentation into ethanol. The hypothesis was that the first-generation feedstock would yield a greater yield for this very reason. The feedstocks used were beetroot juice, sugarcane bagasse, and Callicostella Prabaktiana moss as the first, second, and third-generation feedstocks respectively. The beetroot juice was treated with lime....

|
: | 10.9790/ 264X-1005011925 |
Abstract: This study focused on a comparative phytochemical analysis of butterfly pea (Clitoria ternatea), pink periwinkle (Catharanthus roseus), and marigold (Tegetes erecta), flowers using methanol as the solvent. To identify and quantify secondary metabolites we employed liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). Also treated with the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) for the antioxidant activity assay and the antimicrobial properties tested by the disk diffusion tests. Our findings revealed diverse phytochemical profiles for each flower species....

Abstract: Cordycepin, chemically known as 3'-deoxyadenosine, is a biologically active natural compound with anticancer, antiviral, and immunomodulatory properties, etc. It holds great potential as a therapeutic agent and functional ingredient. With the identification of the cordycepin biosynthetic gene cluster in Cordyceps militaris, various yeast platforms have been engineered to establish cell factories for cordycepin synthesis, addressing the limitations of low yield and high cost associated with chemical synthesis and extraction from natural sources. Our laboratory previously developed a Pichia pastoris strain THP292.......

Abstract: Naturally variation in solar irradiance, variations in orbital parameters of earth and volcanic activities cause climate change. Portion of incoming solar energy reflects back to space. However, a portion of such outgoing energy is absorbed by atmospheric gases and dusts. This causes an increase in temperature of earth and its atmosphere. The gases which trap the heat energy are known as greenhouse gases. This exponential increase in surface temperature of the earth and the global sea level in the last few decades is a major aspect of climate change........

Abstract: Ayurvedic medicines, which have been used for health and wellness for centuries, often include various trace elements that can have both therapeutic benefits and toxic effects. This study focused on measuring the concentrations of trace elements in four commonly used Ayurvedic medicines—Arogyawardhini Bati, Ekangveer Ras, Laxmi Vilas Ras, and Shirashooladivajra Ras—using Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES). These medicines are known to contain metals and minerals as essential components, which can pose health risks if they are present in high amounts. The samples underwent an acid digestion process and were analyzed for elements such as Cobalt (Co),Copper (Cu),Iron (Fe),Manganese (Mn) and Zinc (Zn) and other metals.........

Abstract: The fungal infection of crop plants causes yield losses which resulted in financial problems. Chemical fungicides cause environmental crisis and retains in food chain. The present article reviews various potential proteins with antifungal activity, which could lead to provide valuable gene pool for the development of transgenic plants that are resistant to fungal diseases. Most of the antifungal proteins are categorized and placed in different groups but some are still remained uncategorized and studied separately. This review is focused on types of plant antifungal proteins, their mechanisms of action, parameters and their potential applications for developing antifungal plants for future agricultural applications.
