Abstract: Annona squamosa, commonly known as sugar apple or custard apple, has a long history in traditional medicine for treating various ailments, including cancer. Recent research has focused on exploring the potential of Annona squamosa in cancer treatment, revealing the presence of bioactive compounds like alkaloids, acetogenins, flavonoids, and phenols that possess anti-cancer properties. Both laboratory and animal studies have shown encouraging outcomes, such as the inhibition of tumor growth, induction of apoptosis in cancer cells, and enhancement of the cytotoxic effects.....

Abstract: Medicinal plants are a rich source of pharmacologically bioactive molecules. Nyctanthes arbor-tristis is a medicinal plant of family Oleaceae. The plant produces many bioactive molecule which make them a rich source of various types of medicines. Nyctanthes arbor-tristis is commonly known as "Night Jasmine" or "Harshingar". The plant produces many bioactive molecule which make them a rich source of various types of medicines. The purpous of study was to do phytochemical screening of the methanolic extract of Nyctanthes arbor-tristis leaf. 50 gm of Nyctanthes leaf powder was extract in the Soxhlet extractor for 24 hours. The yield was 12 % w/w. the phytochemical screening of methanolic extract showed the presence of tannins, alkaloids, saponins, terpenoid and phenolic compounds. The study reveal that these bioactive compounds might be used as anti-diabetic, anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory..

Abstract: The development process of Kenya is currently impeded by a surge in fiscal0deficits and0huge0debt0service charges. While the fiscal deficits in the country remain high, the rate of tax evasion in Kenya has been increasing over the years. This study examines the effect of tax evasion on revenue collection in Kenya. The study was0anchored on economic deterrence theory and theory of planned behavior. Further, the researcher deployed descriptive research design. Moreover, study population was 226 employees working in Kenya Revenue Authority. Sample size was established using Yamane's Formula. Stratified random sampling was deployed to choose 144 respondents. Moreover, the researcher deployed primary data acquired via semi-structured questionnaires........

Abstract: Legume crops are grown extensively over the world and are a major source of protein in many least developed nations. Legumes have a very rich nutrient profile, with a higher than average concentration of protein, fiber, and bioactive substances and comparatively fewer carbs than cereal crops. Despite the fact that food beans are a staple in more than 70 countries, particularly in the Asian, African, and South American regions, the per capita intake in western nations remains low.Horsegram (Macrotyloma uniflorum), a member of the Fabaceae family and a potential grain legume, has superior therapeutic and nutritive qualities as well as greater climate resistance to withstand harsh environmental circumstances. Horsegram has historically been used to treat bronchial issues, cold and cough, asthma.......

Abstract: Vermicomposting Can Be Defined As "Bioxidation And Stabilization Of Organic Material Involving The Joint Action Of Earthworms And Mesophilic Micro-Organisms". Under Appropriate Conditions, Worms Eat Agricultural Waste And Reduce The Volume By 40 To 60%. Vermicompost Produced By The Activity Of Earthworms Is Rich In Macro And Micronutrients, Vitamins, Growth Hormones, Enzymes Such As Proteases, Amylases, Lipase, Cellulase And Chitinase And Immobilized Microflora. The Enzymes Continue To Disintegrate Organic Matter Even After They Have Been Ejected From The Worms.
