The study investigates the antioxidant properties of , focusing on identifying its antioxidant compounds and chemical constituents. We compare antioxidant activities across its root, stem, flower, and leaf and examine the inhibition of reactive oxygen species (ROS)-generating enzymes by the plant's phytocompounds. We conducted a comprehensive analysis that included proximate analysis, mineral content assessment, and in vitro antioxidant characterization of various plant parts-root, stem, flower, and leaf.

Nanostructured transition-metal oxides are attractive because of their variety in morphology, high conductivity, and high theoretical capacitance. In this work, the nanostructured MnO was successfully fabricated using a gel formation process followed by calcination at 400 °C (MNO4) and 700 °C (MNO7) in the presence of air.

This study's objective was to formulate a cholesterol-free soymilk dessert (SOD) and compare it's to commercial desserts (CODs). Results indicated that the CODs contain substantial amounts of cholesterol while SOD does not.
