examination of anti-parasitic, anti-Alzheimer, insecticidal and cytotoxic potential of Wallich leaves extracts.

This research study is mainly focused to evaluate the anti-parasitic, insecticidal, cytotoxic and anti-alzheimer potential of various leaf extracts of Wallich ex Bentham. 04 different extracts were prepared using solvent of different polarity to determine the best candidate for potent bioactivity i.e.

Green Synthesis of Zinc Oxide (ZnO) Nanoparticles Using Aqueous Fruit Extracts of : Their Characterizations and Biological and Environmental Applications.

In the present work, bioaugmented zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) were prepared from aqueous fruit extracts of . The ZnO-NPs were characterized by different techniques such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The crystallites exhibited a mean size of 41.

Edible mushroom (Flammulina velutipes) as biosource for silver nanoparticles: from synthesis to diverse biomedical and environmental applications.

The current study reports advanced, ecofriendly and biosynthesized silver NPs for diverse biomedical and environmental applications using Flammulina velutipes as biosource. In the study, a simple aqueous extract of F. velutipes was utilized to reduce the AgNO into stable elemental silver (Ag) at a nanometric scale.

Biomedical and Photo-Catalytic Application of Bio-Inspired Mediated Silver Nanoparticles.

To minimize the hazardous effect of physical and chemical synthesis of nanoparticles we focused on the green synthesis of nanoparticles. Nanotechnology is a research hotspot and catch great attention because of its versatile applications in medical, biosciences and engineering fields. Purpose of our recent study is to synthesize bio-inspired metallic silver NPs by root mediated extract.

Drug resistance pattern in Mycobacterium tuberculosis to the first line drugs of pulmonary tuberculosis patients at Hazara Region, Pakistan.

Introduction: Multidrug resistant TB (MDR-TB), defined as resistance to at least rifampicin and isoniazid together, has been rapidly spreading in recent years. In new pulmonary tuberculosis patients, rapid spread of MDR-TB and XDR-TB challenging the effectiveness of national TB control programs especially in many low-income countries. This study was aimed to determine the resistance pattern of Mycobacterium tuberculosis among new cases, cured, failure, relapse, defaulted, treatment completed, treatment not evaluated and suspect to be resistant to first line antitubercular drugs of pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB).
