Gentiana kurroo Royle: Himalayan Gentian
No full textGentiana kurroo Royle, the Himalayan medicinal plant native to the western and northern Himalayas, is a critically endangered species well-known for its phytochemicals and therapeutic potential. The root and rhizome of the medicinal plant are frequently used for the cure of a variety of ailments. Owing to its endemic status and high rate of harvest from its natural habitat, it has become severely endangered. The phytoconstituent analysis of the species revealed the presence of a number of significant phytochemicals (C-glucoxanthone mangiferin, iridoids, C-glucoflavones, and xanthones) that are useful for the treatment of a variety of acute and chronic illnesses. Till date, several studies have been undertaken to support the medicinal plant’s traditional uses for a number of ailments, including antibacterial, anti-arthritic, antioxidant, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and anti-diabetic. The aim of thischapter is to present an inclusive study on the traditional uses, pharmacology, phytochemistry, and toxicology of Gentiana kurroo Royle.No Full Tex
Epilobium laxum Royle.

Uttar Pradesh: Tehri Garhwal, Rudugaira Gad, 4250–4850 m, 20 July 1883, Duthie 1046 (G, BM000957942!). = Epilobium tetragonum Linnaeus (1753: 348) var. amplectens Benth. ex C.B. Clarke (1879: 587). Lectotype (designated by Raven 1962a)— INDIA. Uttar Pradesh: Kumaun, 1832, Blinkworth in N. Wallich 6330 (K, isolectotypes BM, E, G). Distribution: —N Pakistan, Jammu & Kashmir, U Ganga & Indus. Note: — Epilobium laxum is distinctive by virtue of its large flowers and distributed in western Pan-Himalaya (Chen et al. 1992). Chen et al. (1992) mentioned that the “ holotype ” of E. laxum should be deposited in LIV, but they did not see this type. In this study, we do not determine the type status of E. laxum. Similarly, although both Raven (1962a) and Chen et al. (1992) noted that the “ holotype ” of E. sadae (Duthie 1046) is deposited in G, we are not sure its type status. According to Art. 9.1, we leave the type status issue open for further perusal.Published as part of Luo, Yike & Xie, Lei, 2023, A checklist of Onagraceae in the Pan-Himalaya region, pp. 245-268 in Phytotaxa 597 (4) on page 257, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.597.4.1, http://zenodo.org/record/795860

A bench-top K X-ray fluorescence system for quantitative measurement of gold nanoparticles for biological
No full textGold nanoparticles can be targeted to biomarkers to give functional information on a range of tumour characteristics. X-ray fluorescence (XRF) techniques offer potential quantitative measurement of the distribution of such heavy metal nanoparticles. Biologists are developing 3D tissue engineered cellular models on the centimetre scale to optimise targeting techniques of nanoparticles to a range of tumour characteristics. Here we present a high energy bench-top K-X-ray fluorescence system designed for sensitivity to bulk measurement of gold nanoparticle concentration for intended use in such thick biological samples. Previous work has demonstrated use of a L-XRF system in measuring gold concentrations but being a low energy technique it is restricted to thin samples or superficial tumours. The presented system comprised a high purity germanium detector and filtered tungsten X-ray source, capable of quantitative measurement of gold nanoparticle concentration of thicker samples. The developed system achieved a measured detection limit of between 0.2 and 0.6 mgAu/ml, meeting specifications of biologists and being approximately one order of magnitude better than the detection limit of alternative K-XRF nanoparticle detection techniques. The scatter-corrected K-XRF signal of gold was linear with GNP concentrations down to the detection limit, thus demonstrating potential in GNP concentration quantification. The K-XRF system demonstrated between 5 and 9 times less sensitivity than a previous L-XRF bench-top system, due to a fundamental limitation of lower photoelectric interaction probabilities at higher K-edge energies. Importantly, the K-XRF technique is however less affected by overlying thickness, and so offers future potential in interrogating thick biological samples
Selected papers, with commentary, of Tony Hilton Royle Skyrme
No full textThe most important papers of Tony Hilton Royle Skyrme are collected in this volume which also includes commentaries by G Brown and other articles relating to the life and work of Tony Skryme, R Dalitz, E Witten and others. Skyrme's work was brilliant, profound and surprisingly useful. He provided an original solution to the problem of constructing fermions from bosons, formulating the topological soliton model of the nucleon. His two-parameter model of effective interactions in nuclei has yielded a remarkably accurate description of nuclear structure. His a-particle model of nuclei gave deep
