Herbal products are becoming popular in society and their demand is showing regular increase in the market. A study was undertaken to assess the number of herbal products in selected categories of face care, tooth care, hair care and foot care at Haridwar, Uttarakhand. It was observed that maximum number of products were available under hair care category followed by face care, tooth care and foot care. Price-wise, face care products were the costliest among these.Keywords

Industrial Hemp, commonly known as 'Bhang', is an underutilized biomass found in Uttarakhand. Its stem shows fibre properties ie., cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. Samples 'A' and 'B' of Industrial Hemp fibre (Bhang) were made and sample 'A' was chemically treated with washing soda and 'B' with Boric acid. These chemically treated fibre samples were carded and spun in Nandprayag (weaving cluster developed by Uttaranchal Bamboo and Fiber Development Board-UBFDB). The spun fibre showed less breaking percentage and its appearance was white hence it can be used in textile/cordage at cottage entrepreneurship level. However due to lack of awareness, development of processing methods for fibre, Industrial Hemp and its use in textile/cordage industry these remain undeveloped and unexplored in Uttarakhand. Hence, UBFDB is undertaking continuous efforts to establish this Industrial Hemp fibre at commercial level to provide employment to local people of Uttarakhand.Keywords

Malnutrition is a condition where physical function o f a person is not proper to the point where he can no longer maintain adequate body performance processes. In this respect few studies have been carried so the present study aims to evaluate biochemical markers in young patients suffering from malnutrition. We have evaluated liver function test, CRP as a marker, oxidative stress marker- MDA, antioxidant Ascorbic Acid and Zinc and also correlated with above parameter in severe acute malnutrition. Among 120 subjects, 25 cases + 25 controls were males and 35 cases + 35 controls were females. Biosystems a- 25 fully automated analyzer was used for measurement. A significant negative correlation was between MDA and Total protein and Albumin. A significant positive correlation was between MDA and AST and ALT. A significant negative correlation was seen in levels of ascorbic acid and Zinc and CRP, MDA level was significantly higher while vitamin C, Zinc are significantly low in malnourished children (p< 0.001) results o f our present work provide evidence that oxidative stress is present in sever e malnourished children along with inflammation and hepatic damage Extent o f derangement o f parameters can help to plan specific treatment for malnourished children.Keywords
