However, until now, aerial parts' antidiabetic potential and the plant's acute toxicity at fraction level have never been established. &lt;strong&gt;Objectives: &lt;/strong&gt;To investigate the acute toxicity, the&lt;em&gt; in-vitro&lt;/em&gt;,&lt;em&gt; in-vivo&lt;/em&gt; antidiabetic potential of the plant at fraction level. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;The aerial parts of the plant were fractionated into different fractions, i.e., flavonoid fraction (CAFF), tannin fraction (CATF), alkaloid fraction (CAAF), saponin fraction (CASF), and were analyzed for&lt;em&gt; in-vitro &lt;/em&gt;alpha-amylase inhibition assay. The CAFF, CATF, and CAAF were selected based on&lt;em&gt; in-vitro &lt;/em&gt;alpha-amylase inhibition assay results and were further screened for its acute toxicity and&lt;em&gt; in vivo &lt;/em&gt;antidiabetic activity using a high-fat diet and streptozotocin-induced diabetes model. The CAFF was characterized by LC-MS, and a molecular docking study was carried out. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The &lt;em&gt;in-vitro &lt;/em&gt;alpha-amylase inhibition assay revealed that CAFF was found to be more potent than standard Acarbose having IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; values 122.18 ± 1.15 and 812.83± 1.07 μg/ml, respectively. The CAFF fraction was found to possess potent antidiabetic activity in a dose-dependent manner in both in vitro and &lt;em&gt;in vivo &lt;/em&gt;diabetic models and did not produce any sign of severe toxicity. Furthermore, the bioactive CAFF fraction was characterized by LC-MS, showed the presence of quercetin 3-O-(2’’,6’’-di-O-rhamnosyl) glucoside (QRG) or quercetin 3-O-(2’’,6’’-di-Orhamnosyl) galactoside (QRGa) and quercetin 3-O-rutinoside (rutin) (QR). It is predicted from the molecular docking study that the CAFF fraction primarily acts as an alphaamylase inhibitor. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The CAFF fraction was found to poses dose-dependent potent antidiabetic activity and did not produce any sign of severe toxicity and primarily act as an alpha-amylase inhibitor.&lt;/p&gt;

Daucus carota is a widely cultivated crop with traditional claims for its antiurolithiatic potential. &lt;strong&gt;Aim:&lt;/strong&gt; Present study was an attempt to investigate the antilithic potential of D. carota root extract (DCRE) against calcium oxalate (CaOx) urolithiasis by employing &lt;em&gt;in vitro&lt;/em&gt; methods.&lt;strong&gt; Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Nucleation, growth and aggregation assay of CaOx crystallization were used. FT-IR analysis was used for characterizing CaOx crystals. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; DCRE exhibited significant inhibition of nucleation, growth and aggregation of CaOx crystals. It produced a favorable morphological transformation of CaOx crystals from calcium oxalate monohydrate to calcium oxalate dihydrate. FT-IR analysis confirmed formation of calcium oxalate monohydrate crystals to be utilized for growth and aggregation assays. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; DCRE possesses significant antiurolithiatic activity against CaOx urolithiasis&lt;em&gt; in vitro&lt;/em&gt; which could be attributed to its saponins, tannins, flavonoids and polyphenolic content.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">880</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sweta Bawari, Archana Negi Sah&lt;sup&gt;*&lt;/sup&gt;, Devesh Tewari&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

It is the national flower of Nepal and state tree of Uttarakhand. The present study pertains to the pharmacognostical evaluation of &lt;em&gt;R. arboreum&lt;/em&gt; from Uttarakhand. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Macroscopy, microscopy by free hand section cutting and with the help of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were done along with the physicochemical analysis. Preliminary phytochemical studies and fluorescence analysis was also carried out. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Results revealed that the leaves contain paracytic or amphiparacytic stomata in cluster form. The epidermal cells were long and spongy. The cells also contain some grooves and papillae throughout the surface. Preliminary phytochemical analysis showed the presence of different secondary metabolites like alkaloids carbohydrates, phenols, proteins, saponins, and tannins. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;R. arboreum&lt;/em&gt; from Uttarakhand region was investigated for its morphological and cytological characteristics with the help of scanning electron microscopy for the first time.

Anomocytic stomata were present on both the epidermis of the leaf. Powder microscopy exhibited multi cellular trichomes, clustered calcium oxalate, fibres etc. Physicochemical and histochemical studies revealed the presence of various secondary metabolites and different minerals within the acceptable limits. Thin layer chromatographic profiling showed different spots suggesting the presence of specific phytoconstituents in different extracts. The plant also revealed good nutritional value with calorific value of about 245 kcal/100g; Vitamin C 112 mg/100 g and higher amount of calcium etc. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The results are beneficial to establish the quality control parameters of the plant species and may be served as future reference for the identification and authentication of the genuine crude drug and also provide sufficient data to recognize the use of the plant as dietary suppliment.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">31</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Shantha Thirumalai Ramaseshan&lt;sup&gt;1*&lt;/sup&gt;, Patchaimal Pitchaiah&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Prathapa Reddy Maramreddy&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Vandana Bharti&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Kishore Kumar Ramakrishna&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Venkateshwarlu Gaddam&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Devesh Tewari&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Chinmay Rath&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Anupam Mangal&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Padhi Madan Mohan&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; and Dhiman Kartar Singh&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
