Mycochemistry, antioxidant content, and antioxidant potentiality of the ethanolic extract of and its anti-cancerous effect on HeLa cancer cell line, and antitumor effect on HeLa-implanted mice.

Objectives: Cervical cancer is increasing worldwide and is becoming resistant to the existing drugs in clinical practice. Here, ethanolic extract of fruit body of was evaluated as antioxidant, anticancer agent against HeLa cell lines and anti-tumor against cervical cancer in mice model.

Methods: Fruit bodies of in 90% ethanol, and the ethanolic extract (PFEE) was subsequently investigated for its antioxidant content and activity, anticancer properties against the cervical cancer cell line, HeLa, and antitumor activity against HeLa implanted mice.

A study on the utility of immobilized cells of indigenous bacteria for biodegradation of reactive azo dyes.

Azo dyes are recalcitrant compounds used as a colorant in various industries. The pollution caused by their extensive usage has adversely affected the environment for years. The existing physicochemical methods for dye pollution remediation are rather inefficient and hence there is a dearth of low-cost, potential systems capable of dye degradation.
