Ground water forms a major source of drinking water in urban as well as in rural areas. The water need is met mainly from tanks, tube wells and dug wells. The aim of this study is determination of fluoride content in ground water in certain areas of Madurai district. Ground water(bore well) samples were collected from 5 areas of Madurai district. The level of fluoride in water is calculated using ion exchange method. The result was compared with WHO recommended limit of fluoride - 1.5mg/l. Due to the high concentration of fluoride, dental fluorosis was also identified in people residing in that area.Keywords

The study is to determine the anti-inflammatory effects of extracts of Sage. Sage is an herb native to the Mediterranean, belonging to the Lamiaceae (mint) family along with oregano, lavender, rosemary, thyme and basil. In Ayurveda, sage has been used for its medicinal properties for various indications. flavonoids, phenolic acids, and oxygen-handling enzymes are components of sage, which include mainly superoxide dismutase and peroxidase. Assessment of in-vitro anti inflammatory activity was done by inhibition of protein denaturation. The usage of natural products has less side effects and its easily available. Hence, sage being a natural product can be used for its anti-inflammatory property.Keywords
