Improvement of vitamin B status with Spirulina supplementation in Wistar rats validated through functional and circulatory markers.

Spirulina evaluated as a source of vitamin B through the modulation of vitamin B deficiency mediated physiological and biochemical changes in experimental animals. The B deficient male weanling Wistar rats were fed with Spirulina-supplemented diet for 10 weeks. An increase in urinary methylmalonic acid (22.

Green synthesis, characterisation and bioactivity of plant-mediated silver nanoparticles using root extract.

Consistent search of plants for green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (SNPs) is an important arena in Nanomedicine. This study focuses on synthesis of SNPs using bioreduction of silver nitrate (AgNO) by aqueous root extract of . The biosynthesis of SNPs was monitored by UV-vis analysis at absorbance maxima 432 nm.
