Alpha glucosidase inhibitory activities of Wrightia tinctoria Roxb and Schrebera swietenoides Roxb ethanol extracts were investigated individually. Wrightia tinctoria Roxb and Schrebera swietenoides Roxb bark extract showed in-vitro inhibitory activity of intestinal alpha glucosidase enzyme maltase. Analysis of data confirms that alpha glucosidase inhibition activity was the maximum at 1500mcg/ml of Wrightia tinctoria Roxb bark and 2000mcg/ml of Schrebera swietenoides Roxb bark. The purpose of study was to know whether Wrightia tinctoria Roxb bark and Schrebera swietenoides Roxb bark extract could reduce intestinal absorption of monosaccharides by inhibiting disaccharide hydrolysis. These results suggest that the Wrightia tinctoria Roxb bark extract and Schrebera swietenoides Roxb bark has little potent alpha glucosidase inhibitory activity individually and would be effective in suppression of elevation in blood glucose.Keywords

The aim of the present study was to assess the effects of ethanolic extract of Physalis minima on the amylase, lipase and alpha glucosidase activity in vitro. Powder of whole plant of Physalis minima was extracted in ethanol and the extract was assayed for the measurement of inhibitory effects on activities of enzymes. The extracts rich in bioactive phytochemicals showed inhibitory activity on the amylase, lipase and alpha glucosidase, thus suggesting that extract might be useful in the treatment to limit dietary fat and glucose absorption and the accumulation of fat in adipose tissue. The extracts of Physalis minima may be safe, natural and cost effective for reducing fat and glucose absorption.Keywords

Batch sorption experiments were carried out using a novel adsorbent, Acid treated Pongamia Leaf Powder (APLP) and Acid treated Neem Leaf Powder (ANLP), for the removal of Chromium(VI) from aqueous solutions. Potential of APLP and ANLP for adsorption of chromium from aqueous solution was found to be excellent. Effects of process parameters pH, contact time and adsorbent capacity were studied. Langmuir model represent the experimental data well. Maximum dye uptake was found indicating that APLP and ANLP can be used as an excellent low-cost adsorbent. Comparison of adsorption capacity of APLP and ANLP for chromium clearly indicates that the capacity of APLP for adsorption of chromium is quite high than ANLP. It can be expected that APLP and ANLP would have similar capacities for dyes with similar molecular weight, structure and/or ionic load. Thus, the naturally defoliated the Pongamia and Neem leaf powders a low-cost natural resource, can be effectively used to remove pollutants from effluents.- Molecular Interaction Studies of Phosphatidylcholine As Drug Delivery Substrate For Asenapine Maleate

Phospholipid complexes have become promising delivery systems for delivery of drugs with poor bioavailability like asenapine maleate. To improve the bioavailability of asenapine maleate, phospholipid complex was chosen for the drug with Phospholipon 90 G (phosphatidylcholine). The automated molecular docking calculation for asenapine and maleate individually with phospholipid was performed by AutoGrid 4.2.6, a docking program. The van der Waals hydrogen bond, electrostatic potential energy and desolvation free energy grid maps were calculated by AutoDock parameter set- and distance-dependent dielectric functions respectively. The change in free energy was specifically seen for the complex between asenapine and phospholipid which exhibited least binding docking energy of –3.86 kcal/mol among the summary of 25 poses. Finally, molecular docking studies confirmed that the asenapine is able to make a complex with phosphatidylcholine, plausibly on account of its structural similarity with phospholipid in its physiochemical properties.Keywords
