Tannins are a class of astringent, polyphenolic biomolecules that bind to and precipitate proteins and various other organic compounds including amino acids and alkaloids. The term tannin refers to the use of oak and other bark in tanning animal hides into leather.
Cloves are the aromatic flower buds of a tree in the family Myrtaceae, Syzygium aromaticum. They are native to the Maluku Islands in Indonesia, and are commonly used as a spice. Cloves are commercially harvested primarily in Indonesia, India, Madagascar, Zanzibar, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Tanzania.
Resins are amorphous products of complex chemical nature. They are transparent or translucent solids, semi-solids or liquid substances containing large number of carbon atoms. They are hard, electrically non-conductive and combustible masses. They are usually formed in schizogenous or schizolysigenous cavities or ducts as end products of metabolism.
Most of the resins are heavier than water. They are insoluble in water, but soluble in alcohol, volatile oils, fixed oils, chloral hydrate and non-polar organic solvents like benzene and ether.

Olfaction, or the sense of smell, is an ancient sensory system that together with taste enables an organism to detect chemicals in the external environment. Olfaction is one of the five major human senses (vision, hearing, olfaction, taste, and touch) that occurs when odorants bind to specific sites in olfactory receptors.Olfaction is present in most species such as insects, worms, fish, amphibians, birds, and mammals. It is essential for survival by permitting the location of food, mates, and predators, although in humans, olfaction is often viewed as an esthetic sense capable of triggering emotion and memory.
Hearing, or auditory perception, is the ability to perceive sounds by detecting vibrations, changes in the pressure of the surrounding medium through time, through an organ such as the ear. The academic field concerned with hearing is auditory science. Sound may be heard through solid, liquid, or gaseous matter.
Learning and memory functions are crucial in the interaction of an individual with the environment and involve the interplay of large, distributed brain networks. Recent advances in technologies to explore neurobiological correlates of neuropsychological paradigms have increased our knowledge about human learning and memory. In this chapter we first review and define memory and learning processes from a neuropsychological perspective. Then we provide some illustrations of how noninvasive brain stimulation can play a major role in the investigation of memory functions, as it can be used to identify cause–effect relationships and chronometric properties of neural processes underlying cognitive steps.
Memory refers to the processes that are used to acquire, store, retain, and later retrieve information. There are three major processes involved in memory: encoding, storage, and retrieval. Human memory involves the ability to both preserve and recover information we have learned or experienced.
The three main forms of memory storage are sensory memory, short-term memory, and long-term memory.
Neurotransmitters are chemical messengers that transmit a signal from a neuron across the synapse to a target cell, which can be a different neuron, muscle cell, or gland cell. Neurotransmitters are chemical substances made by the neuron specifically to transmit a message.
In order for neurons to send messages throughout the body, they need to be able to communicate with one another to transmit signals. However, neurons are not simply connected to one another. At the end of each neuron is a tiny gap called a synapse and in order to communicate with the next cell, the signal needs to be able to cross this small space. This occurs through a process known as neurotransmission.
There are a number of different ways to classify and categorize neurotransmitters. In some instances, they are simply divided into monoamines, amino acids, and peptides
Photoperiodism is the phenomenon of physiological changes that occur in plants in
response to relative length of day and night (i.e. photoperiod). The response of the plants to
the photoperiod, expressed in the form of flowering is also called as photoperiodism. The
phenomenon of photoperiodism was first discovered by Garner and Allard (1920).Depending
upon the duration of photoperiod, the plants are classified into three categories.
1. Short day plants (SDP)
2. Long day plants (LDP)
3. Day neutral plants (DNP)
Vernalization is the induction of a plant's flowering process by exposure to the prolonged cold of winter, or by an artificial equivalent. After vernalization, plants have acquired the ability to flower, but they may require additional seasonal cues or weeks of growth before they will actually flower.The vernalization requirement ensures that plants do not flower in the fall when the environmental conditions are unfavorable for reproduction. The strength of the vernalization requirement can vary within plant species.
Nerve Impulse is defined as a wave of electrical chemical changes across the neuron that helps in the generation of the action potential in response to the stimulus. This transmission of a nerve impulse across the neuron membrane as a result of a change in membrane potential is known as Nerve impulse conduction.
Mechanism of Nerve Impulse Conduction
Nerve impulse conduction is a major process occurring in the body responsible for organized functions of the body. So, for conduction of nerve impulse there are two mechanisms:
Continuous conduction
Saltatory conduction
The nervous system is the part of an animal's body that coordinates its behavior and transmits signals between different body areas. In vertebrates it consists of two main parts, called the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The CNS contains the brain and spinal cord
Striated muscle contracts to move limbs and maintain posture. The contraction of skeletal muscles is an energy-requiring process. In order to perform the mechanical work of contraction, actin and myosin utilize the chemical energy of the molecule adenosine triphosphate (ATP).Muscle contraction results from a chain of events that begins with a nerve impulse traveling in the upper motor neuron from the cerebral cortex in the brain to the spinal cord.When the signal to contract is sent along a nerve to the muscle, the actin and myosin are activated. Myosin works as a motor, hydrolyzing adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to release energy in such a way that a myosin filament moves along an actin…
Excitation–Contraction Coupling
Excitation–contraction coupling is the link (transduction) between the action potential generated in the sarcolemma and the start of a muscle contraction.
Sliding Filament Model of Contraction
For a muscle cell to contract, the sarcomere must shorten. However, thick and thin filaments—the components of sarcomeres—do not shorten. Instead, they slide by one another, causing the sarcomere to shorten while the filaments remain the same length. The sliding filament theory of muscle contraction was developed to fit the differences observed in the named bands on the sarcomere at different degrees of muscle contraction and relaxation. The mechanism of contraction is the binding of myosin to actin, forming cross-bridges that generate filament movement
In the muscular system, muscle tissue is categorized into three distinct types: skeletal, cardiac, and smooth. Each type of muscle tissue in the human body has a unique structure and a specific role.
Once the oxygen diffuses across the alveoli, it enters the bloodstream and is transported to the tissues where it is unloaded, and carbon dioxide diffuses out of the blood and into the alveoli to be expelled from the body. Although gas exchange is a continuous process, the oxygen and carbon dioxide are transported by different mechanisms.

Although the pH of blood ranges from 7.35-7.45, the pH of other body fluids is different. pH indicates the level of H+ ions, where low pH indicates too many H+ ions and high pH indicates too many OH- ions. Different organs function at their optimal level of pH. For example, the enzyme pepsin requires low pH to act and break down food, while the enzymes in intestine require high pH or alkaline environment to function. Similarly, any increase or decrease in the blood pH can lead to several disorders. pH is maintained in the body using primarily three mechanisms: buffer systems, respiratory control, and renal control.The abnormalities in acid-base balance are of two types: acidosis and alkalosis. In acidosis, the blood pH is low or there is too much acid in the blood, while in alkalosis, the blood pH is high or there is too much base in the blood. Acidosis and alkalosis may be caused either due to imbalance of acid-base secretion by the kidneys or altered levels of CO2 in the blood due to breathing disorders.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. Introduction
Tannins are polyphenolic substances found in many plants
product of secondary metabolism. Its water- soluble nature
allows easy extraction and is useful in various applications in the
chemical and pharmaceutical industry.
Definition-thecomplex,organic,non-
nitrogenous,polyphenolic substances of higher molecular
weight. They are used as antiseptics and in git diseases like
diarrhea and also used in leather industries.
3. Properties
Pale yellow to light brown-red amorphous substances
widely distributed in plants and used chiefly in tanning
leather, dyeing fabric, and making ink.
Their solutions are acid and have an
astringent taste.
They are isolated from oak bark, sumac, and galls.
Tannins give tea astringency, color, and flavor.
Tannins are phenol glycosides.

9. Classification
The tannins are broadly classified into two groups
based on complexity of their chemical nature and
according to their behaviour on dry distillation
Hydrolysable tannins :
As the name indicates, these tannins are hydrolyzed
by acids or enzymes quickly and the products of
hydrolysis are Gallic acid or ellagic acid. On dry
distillation, Gallic acid and other components get
converted to pyrogallol. They respond to ferric chloride
solution, producing blue colour. The examples of
hydrolysable tannins are- Gallo tannin in nutgall,
rhubarb, amla, clove and chestnut; ellagi tannin from
oak, myrobalans and pomegranate bark.
10.
11. Continued…
Condensed tannins : They are also called as non- hydrolysable
tannins, phiobatannins or proanthocyanidins. They are much
resistant to hydrolysis. They are related to flavonoid pigments,
because they are formed via derivatives of flavones, like catechin or
flavan-3-ol or flavan-3,4-diols. Unlike the hydrolysable tannins, on
treatment with enzymes or mineral acids, they are polymerized or
decomposed into red colored substances called phlobaphenes.
which are insoluble in water and indicate the typical brownish-red
colour of many plants and drugs colour. On dry distillation they yield
catechol. Tannins with ferric chloride produce brownish-green. They
are distributed in different parts of plants. The green tea and
hamamelis leaves, cinchona, cinnamon and wild cherry bark, pale
and black catechu contain these types of tannins.
12. Continued..
Pseudo tannins- This is not as such a separate
group of tannins, but may be treated as sub
group because they do not obey to goldbeaters
skin test and are low molecular weight
compounds.
Chlorogenic acid in coffee and nuxvomica,
ipecacuanhic acid in ipecacuanha and catechins
in cocoa are examples of pseudotannins. The
detection test for chlorogenic acid is carried out
by extracting the drug with water.
14. Extraction and Isolation of tannins
The various types of the methods of extraction
depending upon the source of tannins are
employed. As the tannins are high molecular
weight compounds so it becomes difficult to
isolate the tannins in pure form. Thus the solvents
used are the mixture of polar, non-polar and semi-
polar solvent like alcohol, ether,water,acetone
etc.
15. Identification test
1. Gelatin test:
To a solution of tannin, aqueous solution of 1% gelatin and 10%
sodium chloride are added. A white buff colored precipitate is
formed. Confirms the presence of tannins and pseudo tannins
2. Goldbeater’s skin test:
A small piece of goldbeater skin (membrane prepared from the intestine of
an ox) is soaked in 20% hydrochloric acid, rinsed with distilled water and
placed in a solution of tannin for 5 minutes. The skin piece is washed with
distilled water and kept in a 1% solution of ferrous sulphate. A brown or
black colour is produced on the skin due tob presence of tannins.
3. Phenazone test:
A 10ml of aqueous extract of a tannin and sodium acid phosphate is heated
and cooled and filtered. A 2% solution of phenazone is added to the filtrate.
A bulky colored precipitate isformed.
16. Match stick test (Catechin test):
A match stick is dipped in aqueous plant extract, dried near
burner and moistened with concentrated hydrochloric acid. On
warming near flame, the matchstick wood turns pink or red due
to formation of phloroglucinol.
Test with ferric chloride-To the solution of tannins add ferric
chloride solution. A blue,black,violet or green precipitate or colour
confirms the presence of tannins.
