Therefore, the purpose of this study is to synthesize chitosan-tripolyphosphate nanoparticles from mango ginger extract, determine their chemical contents, the nano chitosan characteristics, and its antioxidant activity. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; In this study, we macerated mango ginger using 70% ethanol solvent, then performed phytochemical test and formulation of chitosan nanoparticles of mango ginger extract. The group of secondary metabolites that showed positive results with the reagent test was further identified through TLC. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The results showed that the extract contained flavonoids and triterpenoids. Also, characterization of chitosan nanoparticles from the extract was conducted with FTIR test, PSA, XRD, and SEM. Based on the results, the nano chitosan particle size was 993 nm and examination with FTIR showed the presence of N-H and P=O groups, indicating ammonium ion interaction from chitosan with the polyanion from TPP and Mango ginger. Additionally, the XRD results showed that the crystals formed were in an amorphous form, which was supported by particle morphology images from SEM. Furthermore, the nanoparticles showed very strong antioxidant activity based on the reaction with DPPH. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; Based on these results, the phytochemical identification of mango ginger extract showed positive results in flavonoid and triterpenoid compounds. In addition, based on the characterization of the nanoparticles, the mango ginger extract showed positive results, illustrating that the nano chitosan synthesis was successful. Furthermore, the nano chitosan has a very strong antioxidant activity with an IC50 value of 18.08 μg/mL.&lt;/p&gt;

Apart from this, the genus also occupies an important constituent of alternative systems of medicine as well as ethnobotany. Among the various species of&lt;em&gt; Tragia&lt;/em&gt;, the most studied and experimented species is T. involucrata. This genus is used for several ethnobotanical uses such as cancer, diarrhea, constipation, scorpion bite, rheumatism, whooping cough and diabetes. Apart from this the genus is also an important constituent of ayurvedic and siddha medicines. Owing to these properties several researches has been conducted to validate the traditional uses, finding out new uses and understanding the phytochemical profile. Alkaloids, phenols, terpenoids and tannin are present in the genus &lt;em&gt;Tragia.&lt;/em&gt; Calcium oxalate and shellsol is responsible for the stinging property. Various species of&lt;em&gt; Tragia&lt;/em&gt; has been validated for its important properties such as antibacterial, antifungal, cytotoxic, wound healing and anti-inflammatory activities. All these properties has been related to the occurrence of secondary metabolites. However the exact lead metabolite for the pharmacological properties has to be identified. Based the experimentally proved pharmacological properties, &lt;em&gt;Tragia&lt;/em&gt; possesses significant potential on a medicinal species.&lt;/p&gt;

Here, we showed that nanoparticles formulated from chloroform fraction of soursop (&lt;em&gt;Annona muricata&lt;/em&gt; L.) leaves and ethyl acetate fraction of sappan wood (&lt;em&gt;Caesalpinia sappan&lt;/em&gt; L.) have anti-proliferative and cytotoxic effects on HeLa cervical cancer cells. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;The cytotoxic effect was evaluated using a single dose of each nanoparticle and a combined dose to obtain a synergistic effect. The mechanism of induced cell death via apoptosis or necrosis pathway was evaluated using flow cytometry by incorporating Annexin V and propidium iodide.&lt;strong&gt; Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Synthesis of nanoparticles from the extract of soursop leaves (nano-SL) and extract of sappan wood (nano-SW) yielded particle sizes ranging from 248 to 317 nm. Nano-SL and nano-SW decreased the viability of HeLa cervical cancer cells in a dose-dependent manner with IC&lt;sub&gt;50 &lt;/sub&gt;values of 63,32 μg/ml dan 40,88 μg/ml, respectively. The combined dose of 1/8 IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; from both nanoparticles showed a strong synergistic effect, as shown by the combination index value of 0.13 based on the same mode of action and different modes of action. In HeLa cells treated with a combined dose of nanoparticles, the total apoptotic cells increased two times greater than that in control cells. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;Nano-SL and nano-SW induce apoptosis and necrosis in HeLa cells. Combined-dose of both nanoparticles produced a synergistic effect that could reduce the amount of the required individual dose while increasing the total effect.&lt;/p&gt;

The use of nanotechnology in medicine especially for drug delivery is shown to have various benefits. Nanoparticles are being used to reduce toxicity and side effects that drugs may impose to the patient. Cumin (&lt;em&gt;Cuminum cyminum&lt;/em&gt;) is a common spice used for its distinct aromatic effect. Plant mediated biological synthesis of nanoparticles has been gaining importance due to its simplicity and eco friendliness. This study therefore was aimed to synthesize cumin oil mediated silver nanoparticles and assess its antioxidant activity. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Cumin oil mediated silver nanoparticles were initially synthesised and characterised by UV-Visible spectrophotometer and TEM. Further the cumin oil mediated AgNPs were subjected to DPPH assay to determine the antioxidant activity. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Cumin oil mediated AgNPs were biosynthesised with ease and showed good antioxidant activity compared to standard. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; This study conclude that cumin seed oil mediated silver nanoparticles have the potential to be used as an effective antioxidant. Hence, it may be employed in large scale production and may be used in many medicinal applications where there is a need for antioxidant.&lt;/p&gt;

This tree has enormous medicinal values since most of its parts are used as medicines traditionally. In this work, two major aspects were studied. Firstly, the phytochemical screening and biological activities of various extracts of leaf, flower and fruit are prepared and studied. Secondly, silver nanoparticles were synthesized from these parts, characterized instrumentally and checked for its antibacterial activity. This study reveals that except the aqueous extracts, all other extracts have good antioxidant and antibacterial activity hence stating the presence of bioactive compounds. Flower mediated nanoparticles showed better results than others which may be due to the presence of certain phytochemical compounds responsible for the reduction and capping of silver nanoparticles. These results showed the potential of &lt;em&gt;Couroupita guianensis&lt;/em&gt; and further investigation to isolate such pharmacologically active compounds that can be used in the production of novel drugs for various diseases would be promising.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">315</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Prakash Pandurangan&lt;sup&gt;*&lt;/sup&gt;, Madhumitha&amp;nbsp;Sahadeven, Swetha Sunkar, Sai Krishna Nerella Mohana Dhana &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

But, a very few of them have been scientifically validated. &lt;em&gt;Samanea Saman&lt;/em&gt; belongs to the&lt;em&gt; Leguminosae&lt;/em&gt; family commonly known as rain tree and is native to tropical America. &lt;em&gt;S.saman&lt;/em&gt; tree has different parts like a leaf, fruits, pods, seeds, and wood. &lt;em&gt;S.saman &lt;/em&gt;is currently studied for the production of biogas which is easily obtained in the urban and rural areas.&lt;em&gt; S.saman&lt;/em&gt; has been used in traditional medicine as a remedy for the treatment of different diseases. The phytochemical screening of the plant revealed the presence of alkaloids&amp;ndash;C&lt;sub&gt;8&lt;/sub&gt;H&lt;sub&gt;17&lt;/sub&gt;ON and C&lt;sub&gt;17&lt;/sub&gt;H&lt;sub&gt;36&lt;/sub&gt;ON&lt;sub&gt;3&lt;/sub&gt; pithecolobine and saponin (samarin). Natural products are mainly derived from medicinal plants, which are tested &lt;em&gt;in vitro&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;in vivo&lt;/em&gt; models and used to investigate the mechanism of action of drugs with potential biological properties. Additionally, &lt;em&gt;S.saman&lt;/em&gt; were recommended as the suitable tree for planting in the urban environment as this species can reduce the outdoor temperature for all types of ground covers. This review is mainly focused on antioxidant, antibacterial, anti-diabetic potential, insecticidal, antifungal, analgesic, anti-ulcer and cytotoxic activities. However, this study helps to develop new strategies for the designing of novel drugs to treat various diseases related to human race.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Review Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">202</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Shanmugam Vinodhini, Devi Rajeswari V* &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
