Abstract: One of the plant commonly consumed in Nigeria for dietary and therapeutic purpose is Garlic (Allium sativum). Often time, the effect of the plant on the spleen is not considered by users. This present study is to investigate the histologic effect of garlic extract on the spleen of adult Wistar rats. This was a descriptive experimental study involving twenty-four (24) adult wistar rats as experimental animals. Twenty-four (24) adult Wistarrats weighing between 150-250 g were used for this research. The experimental animals were obtained from the Animal House of the faculty of Basic Medical...........

Abstract: Since their discovery antibiotics have been central to modern healthcare and have been extensively and effectively used to prevent and treat infections in humans and animals. They have also been used in agriculture, aquaculture, and in livestock as growth promoters. In the last several years, antibiotic usage has received a lot of attention due to their emergence as a potential source of pollution. This paper collects information from other published articles on............

Abstract: In thepresentstudy, an easy and green method for the phytosynthesis of silver nanoparticles is reported. The leaf extract of Wedeliaurticifoliawas used for the synthesis. Overall, three ratios of leaf extract to metal salt concentrationviz 9:1, 1:1 and 1:9 were used to achieve the best ratio to be treated for getting abetter yield. The silver nanoparticles (AgNPs)synthesis was confirmed by thecolour change.The produced nanoparticles were examined by UV-Visible spectroscopy, Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS/Zeta-Sizer), XRD (X-Ray Diffraction Spectroscopy)...........

Abstract: Cowpea, Vigna unguiculata is an important legume crop cultivated worldwide as vegetable and pulse crop Cowpea is susceptible to many virus diseases amongst which geminivirus infection is more prevalent in northern India. Yellow mosaic caused by geminivirus for which whitefly acts as a vector reduces yield from 40-80% area. Virus infection generally results in the drastic bio-chemical and physiological changes in the host plants. For the estimation of protein and nitrogen, stem...........

Abstract: To identify the metal concentration levels of Zinc, Cadmium, Lead, Chromium, Copper, Nickel and Iron were studied in water and sediments of Kolleru Lake A.P, India. Water and sediment samples were collected monthly from the study area during October 2015 to September 2016.The samples were collected from 8 sampling stations of Kolleru Lake. Sampling stations were selected based on inlet of lake, lake points and outlet of the lake. From each sampling station water and sediment samples were collected and analyzed by using AAS. Microwave digestions have been used for sample preparation method. Metal analysis in water and sediments were calculated by.............

Abstract: The WHO defines depression as a pessimistic sense of inadequacy and a despondent lack of activity. Antidepressants are a class of drugs that reduce symptoms of depressive disorders by correcting chemical imbalances of neurotransmitters in the brain. Based on this a prospective observational study was performed in Department of Psychiatry, RMMCH, Annamalai University, TamilNadu, for a period of study 6 months; Between November 2015 and April 2016. Totally 82 patients who satisfied the inclusion and exclusion criteria were enrolled. The objectives were to observe.........

Abstract: Transfusion-transmitted malaria unfortunately is still common in malaria endemic countries such as Nigeria because blood donors are not routinely screened for malaria before donation. Also the diagnostic method of malaria is still an issue in the scientific community. This study compared Giemsa-stained blood film microscopy and malaria rapid diagnostic test (RDT)in the determination of the prevalence of malaria parasite among blood donors in Port Harcourt, Rivers State. A total of 300 (202 male and 98 female) blood donors were studied, 123 (41.00%)were infected with malaria parasite out of which 91 (30.33%) were male and 32 (10.67%) were female.The difference in prevalence of malaria...........

Abstract: Cashew Nut Shell Oil (CNSO) is a versatile component of the Cashew fruit's nut shell. The CNSO is subjected to preliminary phytochemical screening with ethanol, chloroform, acetone, petroleum ether and aqueous extracts. The antibacterial activity had been tested on the CNSO extract against two Gram positive bacteria namely Staphyloccocus aureus and Enteroccocus faecalis, four Gram negative bacteria namely Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumonia, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Salmonella typhi. The Antifungal activity had been tested against the growth..........

Abstract: Soybean is a source of vegetable protein, fats, minerals, and vitamins, currently its position as a very important raw material industry. Indonesia's soybean need reaches 2.20 million tons/year; its domestic production is sufficient 35-40%, so the shortage (60-65%) is met from import (Ministry of Agriculture 2008). The domestic need continues to increase to 9.55% per year. The entire body of S. litura is almost obscured by the white-colored mycelia. With a 109/mL density to shut down up to 50% of the population takes 5 days and 95% of death takes 10 days. B. bassiana infects the insects through the cuticle and multiplies in the body of the insect, while producing beauverisin toxins which can damage the structure of the insect cell membrane to death

Adverse drug reactions associated with the use of anticancer drugs are a worldwide problem which cannot be ignored. Adverse drug reactions can range from mild reaction like nausea, vomiting or any other to severe myelosuppression. This study was planned to observe adverse drug reactions in cancer patients receiving radiation therapy orchemotherapy aged above 18 years and visiting MGM Hospital for treatment and regular check-ups. During the study period, 201 cancer patients who came to the hospital were screened for occurrence of adverse drug reactions during their treatment with chemotherapy.........

Abstract: Forty in-use ocular medications from 34 patients were collected from out-patients at Dr.Agarwal's Eye Hospital, Salem. The present study was carried out by culturing the bottle caps, the cover, nosil and a drop produced by simple inversion by standard methods. The bacterial isolates which were considered significant growth in culture media and positive for direct microscopic findings were taken for the study. These isolates were identified by standard biochemical tests. Commonly Gram positive organism were significantly (71.95%) to be isolated from all medication sites than Gram negative organism (28.04%). Gram positive organism include Staphylococcus saprophyticus..........
