Article Synopsis
  • The study explores the use of a standardized alcoholic extract of seeds (CPS) from an Indian traditional medicinal plant for treating diabetes-related complications, including neuropathy and cardiac issues in rodents.
  • The research involved administering two doses of CPS to diabetic rats and monitoring their effects on blood glucose levels, body weight, and various health parameters over six weeks, alongside histopathological examinations.
  • Results indicated that CPS treatment significantly improved motor functions, reduced diabetic complications, and normalized blood pressure and other vital signs, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic agent for diabetes management.

The extensive use of various chemicals in synthetic plastics is toxic and threatens the biosphere. To address this, the study aimed to isolate, screen, characterize, optimize, and quantify polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB)-producing bacteria using cost-effective residues. Isolated from a landfill site, the Gram-positive, rod-shaped, spore-forming, motile bacterium with intracellular PHB granules was identified as Bacillus pacificus based on phenotypic and genotypic characteristics.

The present investigation deals with the evaluation of the wound healing efficacy of sandalwood bark-derived carbon nanospheres loaded with curcumin-embedded polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) nanofiber membranes (NF). Carbon nanospheres (CNS) were prepared by pyrolyzing sandal wood bark powder at 750 °C. The morphology was confirmed by field emission scanning electron micrographs and a rich amount of carbon was confirmed by the energy dispersive X-ray technique.

The primary objective of the current investigation was the biosynthesis of Phy-AgNPs by the endophytic fungus Phyllosticta owaniana (extracted from Abrus precatorius) and the evaluation of the secondary metabolites from the ethyl acetate extract of P. owaniana cultivated by submerged fermentation. Utilizing bioanalytical strategies, Phy-AgNPs were characterized.
