Cerebroprotective effect of Glycyrrhiza glabra Linn. root extract
No full textThe present study was carried out to evaluate the cerebroprotective effect of the aqueous extract of the roots of Glycyrrhiza glabra Linn. (250 and 500 mg/kg) in hypoxic rats. Hypoxia was induced by providing sodium nitrite drinking water to rats for 14 days. Extract at the tested doses promoted the locomotor activity and spatial behavior significantly, which was impaired in hypoxic rats. The extract administration restored the decreased levels of brain enzymes such as glutamate and dopamine and decreased acetylcholinesterase (AchE) activity significantly. Levels of antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase and catalase were reduced due to hypoxia and were restored to near normalcy by administration of ethanol extract of G. glabra. Increased lipid peroxidation in hypoxic rats was also restored significantly by extract treatment. Thus, this study suggests that ethanol extract of G. glabra possess a cerebroprotective effect in hypoxic rats, which may be mediated by its antioxidant effects
POWER AND MEMORY EFFICIENCY RESEMBLES DISCOVERY IN WSN
No full textUsing the copy perception politesse, we're designed for bloat the repeat awareness likeliness. Our object will be to nominate a diffuse double admission formality beside objectless watch election if you want to extend the repeat apperception promise because the gloomy influence of meet time and the benefits of knowledge cushion arcade must be minimized. The buzz fabric facilitates energy-efficient statistics forwarding around the procedure for the bystanders and likewise the slip. We in a sense end up the offered propriety cut the mustard 100 % copy apperception anticipation amidst wide-eyed spectators. Particularly, we take advantage of the office leak of sensors and at unaided pick out certifies planted within a jewel clap stick to make sure the legitimacy of sensors and likewise to broadcast detected copy charges. Furthermore, in lots of current look-alike computer admission orders upon design less watch picking arrange, the essential intermediary larder of sensors is usually subject to the nodule tightness. Extensive likeness displays our offered p's and q's cut the mustard windy reticule life by dramatically disbursing the bargain shipment extra the circulate. The do rule does not be sure that at least one with the eyeballs can inspect the name on the sensor bumps in finding out in case there is a copy infiltrate or another way. The conduct with the ERCD concordat is evaluated in terms of duplicate approval odds, right diminution, meet all one's born days, and information bumper skill. Extensive duplicate results establish our advised ERCD agreement may admirable operation near regards to the look-alike computer strokes credibility and schmooze endurance near feasible results defense intelligence

High efficiency phytoextraction of uranium using <i>Vetiveria zizanioides</i> L. Nash
No full textUranium uptake, translocation and its effects on leaf anatomy in vetiver grass (Vetiveria zizanioides L. Nash) grown in hydroponics were investigated at a wide range of concentrations. At concentrations below 200 ppm (1, 5, 25, 100, and 200 ppm) almost 90–95% of uranium was depleted from the medium within 3 days of treatment, while at other concentrations viz., at 318, 500, 619, 1,000, 5,000, 7,500, and 11,900 ppm, it reached a maximum between 7 and 14 days, with a marginal increase in the depletion thereafter. Most of the uranium could be recovered from plants at concentrations below 200 ppm. On the contrary, a significant reduction in the recovery of uranium was noticed at higher concentrations and the percentage of recovery dropped from 82% at 318 ppm to 35% at 11,900 ppm. While most of the uranium taken up by the plants could be recovered from roots at lower concentrations, a preferential translocation of the element to shoot occurred at concentrations beyond 1,000 ppm. Histological studies of leaves from plants treated with 1,000 ppm uranium displayed the formation of multilayered cells between the epidermis and vascular bundles on the adaxial side in the distal regions of the leaves. The plants were also found to tolerate and survive the radiological and chemical constituents of both uranium mill tailings soil as well as various effluents of uranium mine and mill operations. Further, they could also survive in uranium ore containing 600 ppm of triuranium octoxide (U3O8) and could withstand the amendment of ore with citric acid. The ability of vetiver to take up uranium from solutions to high levels and its survival in effluents, mill tailings soil, and ore coupled with its ecological characteristics makes it an ideal plant for phytoextraction of uranium.</p

An Image Indexing and Region based on Color and Texture
No full textFrom the previous decade, the enormous rise of the internet has tremendously maximized the amount image databases obtainable. This image gathering such as art works, satellite and medicine is fascinating ever more customers in numerous application domains. The work on image retrieval primarily focuses on efficient and effective relevant images from huge and varied image gatherings which is further becoming more fascinating and exciting. In this paper, the author suggested an effective approach for approximating large-scale retrieval of images through indexing. This approach primarily depends on the visual content of the image segment where the segments are obtained through fuzzy segmentation and are demonstrated through high-frequency sub-band wavelets. Furthermore, owing to the complexity in monitoring large scale information and exponential growth of the processing time, approximate nearest neighbor algorithm is employed to enhance the retrieval speed. Thus, a locality-sensitive hashing using (K-NN Algorithm) is adopted for region-aided indexing technique. Particularly, as the performance of K-NN Approach hinges essentially on the hash function segregating the space, a novel function was uncovered motivated using E8 lattice which could efficiently be amalgamated with multiple probes K-NN Approach and query-adaptive K- NN Approach. To validate the adopted hypothetical selections and to enlighten the efficiency of the suggested approach, a group of experimental results associated to the region-based image retrieval is carried out on the COREL data samples
Mast cell stabilizing and anti-anaphylactic activity of aqueous extract of green tea (Camellia sinensis)
No full textAbstractGreen tea (Camellia sinensis) is one of the most popular and widely consumed beverages in the world. In the current study, aqueous extract of green tea (C. sinensis) was evaluated for mast cell stabilizing and anti-anaphylactic activities. Green tea extract (11, 13, 15mg/ml) significantly (P<0.05) inhibited compound 48/80-induced rat mesentric mast cell degranulation in a dose dependent manner. Anti-anaphylactic activity of green tea extract was performed in female mice. At a dose of 400, 500, 600mg/kg BW, green tea extract showed significant reduction in the mortality of mice subjected to anaphylactic shock by compound C48/80. Ketotifen was used for comparison. In addition, IR and UV–Visible spectroscopy analysis of green tea extract revealed the presence of functional groups of bioactive compounds. These results suggest that green tea could be useful in the treatment of asthma and allergic rhinitis
