My research poster I constructed for OK Research Day 2010 that was held at Cameron University November 12, 2010. The title of my research was "Quantitation of Capsaicin Levels in Hot Peppers by Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry."
This study investigated the acute toxicity of mixtures of the organophosphate chlorpyrifos and the carbamate carbaryl on Daphnia magna. A preliminary experiment was conducted following ISO guidelines to determine appropriate concentrations for a definitive toxicity test. Daphnia were exposed to serial dilutions of the pesticide mixture for 48 hours, and immobilization was recorded. Results showed immobilization between 1.25-2.5% concentrations, identifying an appropriate range for the definitive test to establish the median lethal concentration and determine if synergistic toxicity occurs.
This document summarizes a study that screened 40 plant extracts for antimicrobial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The study aimed to screen extracts from plants traditionally used to treat tuberculosis and other infections in Sudan. The screening identified 5 extracts that showed distinct antimicrobial properties against M. tuberculosis through high-throughput screening using luciferase to determine bacterial growth and confirmation of inhibition through CFU plating and analysis of bacterial growth. The extracts warrant further study to evaluate their potential as sources of new anti-tuberculosis drugs.

Analysis of Capsaicin and Dihydrocapsaicin in Chili Peppers Using the PerkinE...PerkinElmer, Inc.
Capsaicinoids are the compounds that produce the pungency, aroma and flavor of chili peppers. The two most abundant capsaicinoids in chili peppers are capsaicin (8-methyl-N-vanillyl-trans-6-nonenamide) and dihydrocapsaicin. Combined, these two make up close to 90% of the most pungent varieties of capsaicinoids, with capsaisin making up about 71%. The capsaicin content of peppers is one of the parameters that determine their commercial quality. The amount of capsaicin can vary, depending on the light intensity and temperature at which the plant is grown, the age of the fruit, and the position of the fruit in the plant. Besides their widespread uses in foods, capsaicinoids are increasingly being used as the active component in pharmaceuticals and have been used as an analgesic against arthritis pain and inflammation. They have also been reported to be active against neurogenic inflammation (as in pepper sprays) and have shown protective effects against high cholesterol levels and obesity. Considering the increased use of capsaicinoids in both foods and pharmaceuticals, there is an increasing demand for their accurate quantitation as part of monitoring the quality of chili peppers. In this regard, this application focuses on the extraction, HPLC separation and quantitation of capsaisin and dihydrocapsaicin in two store-bought chili pepper powders.

The document summarizes a study examining the effects of mutations to amino acids asparagine 284 and tryptophan 246 in the human adenosine A2a receptor (hA2aR). The study found that mutating these amino acids completely abolished hA2aR signaling function, as cyclic AMP (cAMP) levels were undetectable in cells expressing the mutant receptors. While wild type hA2aR increased cAMP levels when stimulated with adenosine, the allosteric modulator amiloride further elevated cAMP levels, suggesting it acts as a positive modulator of hA2aR. The mutations did not affect inverse agonist binding. The results indicate these amino
This document discusses a study aiming to improve the dissolution rates of a pH-dependent weak base drug (referred to as Lex) using hot melt extrusion with polymers and organic acids. Two polymers were tested as carriers for hot melt extrusion with Lex, with hydroxypropyl cellulose (KVa64) showing the best results. Extrusion was performed at 155°C with KVa64 but dissolution rates remained low, especially at higher pH. Citric acid and fumaric acid were then added as pH modifiers to potentially create a microenvironment favoring drug dissolution. Extrusion of Lex, citric acid and KVa64 resulted in homogeneous filaments and around 50% drug release. However, further studies are

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

1. Quantitation of Capsaicin Levels in Hot Peppers by Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry Brandi N. VanAlphen and David von Minden, PhDDepartment of Chemistry, University of Central OK, Edmond, OK 73034 Abstract Capsaicinoids from chili peppers are significantly known for their pungent taste and for causing pain upon skin or eye contact [1]. The most abundantly occurring capsaicinoids are capsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin in the genus Capsicum. The structural characteristic of capsaicin that determines its spicy content is associated with the presence of an amide bond connected to a vanillyl ring and an acyl chain. The development of a rapid, reproducible, and simple method of quantitation by the employment of gas chromatography/mass spectrometry is reported. Mass spectrometry of the fruit-crude extracts indicated that molecular ions at m/z 305 and 307 correspond to capsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin. These two have a common benzyl fragment at m/z 137 which can be used for selective ion monitoring by the use of gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. These two naturally occurring capsaicinoids have been determined and quantified by use of high-purity standards, with an alkylated capsaicinoid derivative as an internal standard. Synthesis of an alkylated capsaicin derivative using tetramethylammonium hydroxide (25% in methanol) and iodoethane produced an internal standard comparable to capsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin. Ethylation of the common benzyl group caused the fragmentation of that group to increase from m/z 137 to 165. Ethylation of these capsaicinoids provided a large enough shift in the retention times of the analytes to avoid interference. The major capsaicinoids in a commercial plant extract and in a variety of chili-pepper fruits were quantified using derivitized ethylated capsaicinoid analogues, not known to ever be employed as internal standards. Derivitization of capsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin and utilization of them as internal standards in hot peppers is presented. Molecular structure of capsaicin, the most common capsaicinoid. Molecular structure of dihydrocapsaicin, the second most abundant capsaicinoid. Spectrum of capsaicin derivative containing m/z 333 as the molecular weight and m/z 165 as the ethylated benzyl fragment. Spectrum of dihydrocapsaicin derivative with m/z 335 as the molecular weight and m/z 165 as the ethylated benzyl fragment. Molecular structure of capsaicin derivative Total Ion Chromatogram of Red Caribbean Pepper. Retention times are as followed: Capsaicin-23.053, Dihydrocapsaicin-23.373, Capsaicin derivative- 24.088. IS is too small to quantify. Molecular structure of dihydrocapsaicin derivative Total Ion Chromatogram of Red Serrano 23.324, Capsaicin derivative-24.085, Dihydrocapsaicin derivative- 24.424. Conclusions It is known that Red Caribbean peppers contain more capsaicin than the Red Serrano peppers. It is suggested that an ethylated capsaicin derivative can be used as an internal standard by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry techniques to quantify the amount of capsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin in these peppers because it gives a reliable MS response. However, a higher scaled derivitization is needed to efficiently quantify capsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin in significantly hot peppers, such as the Caribbean Red. Once an appropriate amount of the internal standard are applied, a calibration curve can be constructed. Dried Red Serrano and Caribbean Red Peppers used in research. References 1.
