The limitations and side effects of existing synthetic drugs incline toward natural sources. In the present communication active principles of methanolic extract of Roxb, leaves are explored as an antioxidant, AChE inhibitor, and anti-amyloidogenic.

Organic acids and their derivatives have been attributed to growth and well-being improvement in fish when supplemented in their diets. Therefore, this study was conducted to evaluate the ameliorative role of potassium formate (PF) in rohu Labeo rohita fingerlings. A total of 240 healthy rohu fingerlings (9.

Methods: In the present study, we sought to analyze the antitumor activity of Hydroxy-DPTQ and Methoxy-DPTQ on Ehrlich's ascites carcinoma in vivo models, along with other pharmacological activities and toxicity.
Results: In this study, both the test molecules studied possess potent in vivo antitumor activity without any hematological, biochemical or nephrotoxicity.
