    Objective: This study was conducted to analyze prescriptions of the hypertensive patient and to determine the awareness of physicians regarding antihypertensive drugs. Methods: Prepare a questionnaire by the pilot study on five physicians. Review and finalized the questionnaire after discussion with pharmacologist. The answers were seek for awareness. Moreover the prescription of 30 patients was collected from the same physician who has undertaken the awareness regarding Antihypertensive Drugs. Study was conducted during Oct-2019 to Dec 2019. Results: Average 83% awareness was found in the physician regarding antihypertensive drugs. Lack of awareness regarding diabetes and in ulcer patients was observed. Highest drug is given i.e. ÎČ blockers in antihypertensive patients. To determine the irrationality in the prescription of hypertensive patients. Conclusion: To determine the FDC`s given to hypertensive patients. To determine the type of antihypertensive drugs given to patients

    An electronically active and spectral sensitive fluorescent “turn-on” chemosensor (BTP-1) based on the benzo-thiazolo-pyrimidine unit was designed and synthesized for the highly selective and sensitive detection of FeÂłâș from aqueous medium. With FeÂłâș, the sensor BTP-1 showed a remarkable fluorescence enhancement at 554 nm (λex=314 nm) due to the inhibition of photo-induced electron transfer. The sensor formed a host-guest complex in 1:1 stoichiometry with the detection limit down to 0.74 nM. Further, the sensor was successfully utilized for the qualitative and quantitative intracellular detection of FeÂłâș in two liver cell lines i.e., HepG2 cells (human hepatocellular liver carcinoma cell line) and HL-7701 cells (human normal liver cell line) by a confocal imaging technique

    Studies were undertaken to isolate, identify and evaluate the biological activities of endophytic mycoflora of Indian medicinal plant, Terminalia arjuna. A total of 20 isolates of endophytic fungi were obtained from the leaves, twigs and bark tissues of the Terminalia arjuna. Out of 20, six isolates exhibited promising antibacterial, antifungal and anti-inflammatory activities when cultivated at shake flask level. The selected isolates were identified on the basis of morphology and ITS gene sequencing. Three isolates, designated as TA BA 1, TA L1 and TA L2 were identified as Aspergillus flavus whereas; the remaining three endophytic fungi were identified as Diaporthe arengae (TA TW2), Alternaria Sp. (TA TW1) and Lasiodiplodia theobromae (TA BA2). Aspergillus flavus was found as the predominant endophyte in leaves and bark tissues of the plant. The crude extract of the test isolates showed considerable antimicrobial activity against common human bacterial (Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Proteus vulgaris, Salmonella abony and Bacillus subtilis) and fungal (Candida albicans, Aspergillus niger and Penicilium sp.) pathogens. The extract of Diaporthe arengae (TA TW2) significantly reduced the concentration of DPPH free radical as percent DPPH scavenging activity was found to be highest (69.56%) in comparison with other isolates. The % inhibition of hemolysis of RBCs was found to be highest (82.85%) with Diaporthe arengae (TA TW2) in comparison (83.26%) with standard drug (Ibuprofen). Among all, the extract of the Diaporthe arengae (TA TW2) showed excellent biological activities and hence was subjected to further characterization. The phytochemical investigation of the extract revealed the presence of terpenoids as the major phytoconstituents which was supported by TLC and UV spectroscopic studies. The results indicate that the isolated endophytes could be the valuable source of these bioactive molecules with diverse biological activities. The bioactivities may be attributed to the terpenoids present in the endophytic extract

    The performance of two sunflower genotypes (Morden and MSFH-8) with and without VA-mycorrhizal fungi at three P levels (38, 56 and 75 kg P2O5 ha-1) in vertisol of Dharwad was studied to determine the effect of mycorrhizal inoculation on plant growth, yield and P uptake. The results showed that the VAM inoculation increased sunflower yield (14%), total biomass (16%), oil content (3.1%) and P uptake (30.5%) over uninoculated control. The percent root colonization and chlamydo-spore count decreased with increasing P levels. The total biomass production, seed yield and P uptake of mycorrhizal plants at 38 kg P2O5 ha-1 more than the non-mycorrhizal plants at 75 kg P2O5 ha-1. The biomass and seed yield of mycorrhizal plants at same P level were more than the non-mycorrhizal plants. Mycorrhizal plants of Morden at 38 kg P2O5 ha-1 and MSFH-8 at 56 kg P2O5 ha-1 produced higher seed yield, oil content and total biomass than non-mycorrhizal plants supplied with 75 kg P2O5 ha-1. The results indicated that, VA-mycorrhizal inoculation helps in saving 25 and 50 percent of recommended dose of phosphatic fertilizer (75 kg P2O5 ha-1) in MSFH-8 (single cross hybrid) and Morden (open pollinated variety), respectively

    H-trees generalizes the existing notions of trees, higher dimensional trees and k-ctrees. The characterizations and properties of both Pk-trees for k at least 4 and Cn-trees for n at least 5 and their hamiltonian property, dominations, planarity, chromatic and b-chromatic numbers are established. The conditions under which Pk-trees for k at least 3 (resp. Cn-trees for n at least 4), are the line graphs are determined. The relationship between path-trees and split graphs are developed

    Sugar, acid, and nitrogen in the developing berries of some grape varieties

    Get PDF
    Periodical data regarding changes in total nitrogen, total acid and total sugar of the developing berries revealed that the total nitrogen in dry weight basis increased very rapidly between 10-20 days after anthesis and decreased subsequently until maturity of berries. The maximum N content 20 days after anthesis is thought to coincide with the period of maximum requirement of N at this stage for building up of the various tissue. The total acidity in developing berries showed the familiar pattern of gradual rise to 40 days after anthesis, followed by a gradual decline until maturity of berries. The maximum coincides with low night temperatures, indicating greater synthesis of acids at low temperatures. The gradual reduction of acidity until maturity corresponcled with the rise in day temperature suggesting the respiration of acids at high temperatures.The sugar accumulation in developing grape berries started 50 days after anthesis. The rate of accumulation was very high from 60-80 days after anthesis. This period coincides with the beginning of the third stage of berry growth.Zucker, SĂ€ure und Stickstoff in den wachsenden Beeren einiger RebsortenDer Gehalt an Gesamtstickstoff, GesamtsĂ€ure und Gesamtzucker in wachsenden Beeren wurde in regelmĂ€ĂŸigen AbstĂ€nden ermittelt. Dabei zeigte sich, daß der Gesamtstickstoff, auf das Trockengewicht bezogen, in der Zeitspanne zwischen 10 und 20 Tage nach der Anthese sehr schnell zunahm und danach bis zur vollen Beerenreife wieder absank. Es wird vermutet, daß der Höchstgehalt 20 Tage nach der Anthese mit der Phase eines maximalen Stickstoffbedarfes fĂŒr den Aufbau der verschiedenen Gewebe zusammenfĂ€lllt.Die GesamtsĂ€ure in den wachsenden Beeren zeigte das bekannte Bild eines allmĂ€hlichen Anstiegs wĂ€hrend einer Dauer von 40 Tagen nach der Anthese sowie einer darauffolgenden allmĂ€hlichen Abnahme bis zur vollen Reife der Beeren. Das Maximum fĂ€llt mit niedrigen Nachttemperaturen zusammen und zeigt eine stĂ€rkere SĂ€uresynthese bei niedrigen Temperaturen an. Der allmĂ€hliche SĂ€ureabbau entspricht dem Anstieg der Tagestemperaturen und lĂ€ĂŸt eine Veratmung der SĂ€uren bei hohen Temperaturen vermuten.Die Zuckerakkumulation in wachsenden Beeren begann 50 Tage nach der Anthese. Die Akkumulationsrate war in der Zeitspanne zwischen 60 und 80 Tage nach der Anthese sehr hoch. Diese Periode fĂ€llt mit dem Beginn der dritten Phase des Beerenwachstums zusammen
