A baseline study of meso and microplastic predominance in pristine beach sediment of the Indian tropical island ecosystem.

The global presence and prevalence of microplastic have moved microplastic from an emerging pollutant to a persistent contaminant. Microplastic prevails in almost all spheres of the environment viz. terrestrial, marine and atmosphere the globe abundantly.

Isolation and biological evaluation 7-hydroxy flavone from L: insights from extensive , DFT, molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation studies.

The flavonoid based 7-hydroxy flavone (PubChem CID: 5281894; molecular formula: CHO) molecule has been isolated for the first time from the methanolic extract from the leaves of L. in the tropical mangrove ecosystem of Andaman and Nicobar Islands (ANI), India. The molecular structure of bioactive compound was characterized by spectroscopic analysis, including FT-IR, H, C NMR spectroscopy and ESI-HRMS and elucidated as 7-hydroxy flavone.

Isolation, characterisation, anticancer and anti-oxidant activities of 2-methoxy mucic acid from : an and studies.

The main objective of the present study is to isolate and characterise the novel bioactive molecule, 2-methoxy mucic acid from Blume under the family. In this study, the 2-methoxy mucic acid ( was isolated for the first time from the methanolic extract of the leaves of . Anticancer activity of 2-methoxy mucic acid () was evaluated against HeLa and MDA-MB-231 cancer cell lines and they displayed promising activity with IC values of 22.

A comprehensive and studies on quinizarin: a promising phytochemical derived from .

Mangrove plants are a great source of phytomedicines, since from the beginning of human civilization and the origin of traditional medicines. In the present study, ten different mangrove leaf methanolic extracts were screened for the type of phytochemicals followed by assessing antimicrobial, anti-oxidant and anti-cancer activities. The efficient methanolic crude extract of was further purified and characterized for the presence of the bioactive compound.

A Review on Antidiabetic Properties of Indian Mangrove Plants with Reference to Island Ecosystem.

Mangrove ecosystem has many potential species that are traditionally used by the coastal communities for their traditional cure for health ailments as evidenced by their extensive uses to treat hepatic disorders, diabetes, gastrointestinal disorders, anti-inflammation, anticancer, and skin diseases, etc. In recent times, the diabetes mellitus (DM), a serious physiological disorder all over the world, occur due to the relative or complete deficiency of insulin in the body, characterized by an abnormally high blood glucose level. India has a rich traditional knowledge on plant-based drug formulations that are protective and curative for many health ailments.
