Assessing Serum Lipid Levels in Patients Diagnosed With Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma.

Purpose Of The Study: The main purpose of this study is to assess serum lipid levels in patients diagnosed with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). The secondary objective is to explore the association between these lipid levels, namely serum cholesterol, serum triglycerides, serum low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and serum high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and the development of POAG.

Background: Glaucoma is a major contributor to global blindness, with elevated intraocular pressure as a key risk factor.

Synthesis of different metallochlorophyllins and quantification in food samples by reversed phase - high performance liquid chromatography.

The complex formation between metals (Ni, Co, Zn, Fe, Pb, Sn and Ag) and natural chlorophyll extracted from green leaves was monitored in the present study. The respective metallochlorophyllin was prepared by the reaction of metal chloride or nitrate (1M) to chlorophyll extracted from Ficus leaves extract. All synthesized metallochlorophyllins were stable and Na-Cu-chlorohyllin (E141) which is permitted to add in food and are listed in European Directive 94/36/EC on food colouring materials, was identified in commercially available food commodities (candies).

Synthesis and characterisation of flower shaped zinc oxide nanostructures and its antimicrobial activity.

Flower shaped Zinc Oxide nanostructures was synthesized using a simple method without using any structure directing agents. Elemental analysis, crystalline nature, shape and size were examined using Powder X-ray Diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HRTEM) and Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDAX). XRD revealed the formation of hexagonal ZnO nanostructures.

Green synthesis of silver nanoparticles using Terminalia chebula extract at room temperature and their antimicrobial studies.

A green rapid biogenic synthesis of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) using Terminalia chebula (T. chebula) aqueous extract was demonstrated in this present study. The formation of silver nanoparticles was confirmed by Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) at 452 nm using UV-visible spectrophotometer.

Terminalia chebula mediated green and rapid synthesis of gold nanoparticles.

Biologically inspired experimental process in synthesising nanoparticles is of great interest in present scenario. Biosynthesis of nanoparticles is considered to be one of the best green techniques in synthesising metal nanoparticles. Here, an in situ green biogenic synthesis of gold nanoparticles using aqueous extracts of Terminalia chebula as reducing and stabilizing agent is reported.
