Comparative evaluation of Hepatoprotective activity in male albinoratsijperSS
ABSTRACT
Phyllanthus amarus, Picrorrhiza kurroa and Andrographis paniculata have prominent place in the management of liver diseases. Effects of aqueous extracts of Phyllanthus amarus, Picrorrhizha kurroa and ethanolic extracts of Andrographis paniculata on the liver of paracetamol and carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) induced hepatotoxic rats were studied. High levels of liver enzymes, MDA and reduced levels of glutathione were observed in paracetamol and CCl4 induced rats which were significantly reduced after administration of Phyllanthus, Picrorrhiza and Andrographis extracts at the concentration of 250mg/kg b.w. Of the three plants studied in two different experimental models Picrorrhiza kurroa exhibited prominent activity than the other two plants.
Key words: Phyllanthus amarus, Andrographis paniculata, Picrorrhiza kurroa, Hepatotoxicity, paracetamol, carbon tetrachloride.

Design of Experiments (DoE) manipulation in the formulation and optimization ...RAHUL PAL
Introduction: In India, the regulatory body for catechu is the Food Safety and Standards Authority of
India (FSSAI). The FSSAI is responsible for regulating the manufacture, sale, and distribution of food in
India, including catechu. The FSSAI has set standards for the purity and quality of catechu, and it also
monitors the market for adulterated catechu. The FDA (The Food and Drug Administration) is
responsible for regulating the safety and efficacy of drugs and dietary supplements in the United States
(US). The FDA has not approved catechu as a drug or dietary supplement, but it does regulate catechu as
a food additive. The FDA has set limits on the amount of catechu that can be added to food
Objective: The primary objective of this research was to involvement of design of experiments (DoE)
manipulation in the formulation and optimization of a traditional Ayurvedic medicine derived from dried
extract of Senegalia catechu enhanced through statistical analysis.
Methodology: The dried extract of Senegalia catechu was collected and identified at the botanical
herbarium garden. Subsequently, it underwent a drying process and was ground into a powder.

Plant populations of 166,666 plants/ha (30 x 20 cm spacing) and 200,000 plants/ha (25 x 20 cm spacing) produced the highest dry root yield of Withania somnifera. Irrigation at 40±5% of total available water also increased dry root yield compared to rainfed conditions. Among moisture conservation practices, distillation waste mulch performed best by increasing soil moisture retention. The study evaluated different planting densities, irrigation levels and mulching materials for optimizing productivity and quality of ashwagandha.

Systematic Review on Phalatrikadi KashayaYogeshIJTSRD
Many scholars consider Ayurveda to be the oldest healing science. Ayurveda means Science of Creation in Sanskrit. Ayurvedic awareness dates back over 5000 years in India and is sometimes referred to as the mother of all healing systems. Phalathrikan Kashaya was included in many authentic Ayurvedic texts. It is indicated for all forms of Prameha, according to the shloka. In Ayurveda, there are 20 different forms of Prameha. Despite the fact that many pharmacological and clinical studies of Phalatrikaadi kwata on various diseases have been performed, there is no systematic review available, so the current study was conducted. Published research papers on Phalatrikadi kwata were found in various databases of research journals, and their abstracts were collected. Then, based on the Kashayas indication, all of the abstracts were checked. However, there are few studies that have been published on diabetes mellitus or any of the Prameha conditions that are listed in Ayurveda. So, according to Ayurveda, further clinical trials should be conducted to test the effectiveness of Phalatrikadi kwata against Prameha Rogas. T. K. G. Punchihewa | P. P. Uyanege | D. H. G. A. N.

Through traditional breeding methods and modern biotechnological approaches, varieties with improved traits such as disease resistance, higher fruit yield, better taste, and extended shelf life are developed. Emphasis is placed on selecting superior germplasm, incorporating desirable traits through hybridization, and utilizing molecular markers for precise trait selection. Additionally, conservation efforts for genetic diversity and participatory breeding involving farmers contribute to sustainable crop improvement strategies, ensuring the continued viability and adaptability of these important fruit crops.

Vedant Pandit Shirsath's roll number is 58. He is studying Pharmacognocy and his topic is on Arjuna Bark under the guidance of his teacher Vishal Kushare sir at MVPS Institute of Pharmaceutical Science in Adgaon, Nashik. Arjuna Bark comes from the dried stem bark of Terminalia Arjuna Rob plant and contains less than 0.02% of arjungenin. It grows commonly in India and has astringent and cardioprotective properties. Arjuna Bark is used in herbal medicine, tanneries, and for timber.
Globalization is happening now and we must be aware of it. Standardization is important for traditional Indian systems of medicine (ISM) like Ayurveda to ensure safety and efficacy. This includes standardizing education, manufacturing practices, research methods, and regulations. National institutes and universities provide Ayurveda education following standardized syllabi. Quality control measures are in place for herb cultivation, product development, and testing to meet global standards. Collaborative research is conducted between ISM institutions and other organizations. Standardization helps mainstream ISM while protecting traditional knowledge and making the most of available resources and talent for the health of all.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

What are Cardiotonics drugs?
Cardiotonics (Greek Kardia – Heart)
• The drugs which give strength or energy to the activity
of the heart
• The cardiotonics increase the force of contraction of
cardiac muscles and stimulate the overall activity of the
heart
• Example: Digitalis, Squill, Arjuna bark, Thevetia,
Strophanthus are the natural Cardiotonic drugs

Cultivation and Collection:
• Digitalis is a biennial herb or perennial herb of about 1-2 metres in height
• It is cultivated in Kashmir, Nilgiri hills & Mungapoo
• Propagation done by Seeds of selected strain containing high glycosidal content
• Soil: Calcarious, sandy, light soil with traces of Manganese. The soil is sterilized by steam before sowing
• Altitude: 1600-3000 m
• Seeds are very small in size i.e 100 seeds weigh 40-70 mg so they are mixed with fine sand and sown in nursery beds
in March/April. About 2.5 kg seeds are needed per hectare
• Seedlings transplanted in September & November
• Well manured and kept free from weeds

leaves
• The plant flowers in the month of April followed by fruiting
• If plants are further allowed to grow & the flowering tops are removed
• Crop protected from plant diseases otherwise it leads to loss of activity of the drug
• Leaves are picked up in the afternoon during August & September in the first year when 2/3rd of the flowers are
fully developed
• Collection of leaves from the basal part at dry weather.

Chemical Tests:
Digitalis glycosides having five membered lactone ring answers positive for the following tests which are due to the
intact lactone.
Baljet Test: To a thick section of the leaf sodium picrate reagent is added. Yellow to orange colour indicates the
presence of glycoside.
Legal Test: Glycoside is dissolved in pyridine and sodium nitroprusside solution is added to it and made alkaline.
Pink to red colour is produced.
Keller–Killiani Test: The isolated glycoside is dissolved in glacial acetic acid and a drop of ferric chloride solution is
added followed by the addition of sulphuric acid which forms the lower layer. A reddish-brown colour is seen in
between two liquids and the upper layer becomes bluish green.
