AbstractThis study deals with the determination of new natural fibers extracted from the Corypha taliera fruit (CTF) and its characteristics were reported for the potential alternative of harmful synthetic fiber. The physical, chemical, mechanical, thermal, and morphological characteristics were investigated for CTF fibers. X-ray diffraction and chemical composition characterization ensured a higher amount of cellulose (55.1 wt%) content and crystallinity (62.5%) in the CTF fiber. The FTIR analysis ensured the different functional groups of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin present in the fiber. The Scherrer’s equation was used to determine crystallite size 1.45 nm. The mean diameter, specific density, and linear density of the CTF fiber were found (average) 131 μm, 0.86 g/cc, and 43 Tex, respectively. The maximum tensile strength was obtained 53.55 MPa for GL 20 mm and Young’s modulus 572.21 MPa for GL 30 mm. The required energy at break was recorded during the tensile strength experiment from the tensile strength tester and the average values for GL 20 mm and GL 30 mm are 0.05381 J and 0.08968 J, respectively. The thermal analysis ensured the thermal sustainability of CTF fiber up to 230 °C. Entirely the aforementioned outcomes ensured that the new CTF fiber is the expected reinforcement to the fiber-reinforced composite materials.

The research characterization of cytotoxic fraction against P-388 leukemia murine cells from the extract honje (Etlingera elatior) seed have been reported. This research lead to isolated and characterization of cytotoxic compounds against P-388 leukemia murine cells from the extract E. elantior seed. The extract of E. elantior seed was maserated by methanol, n-hexane, and ethyl acetate, respectively and estimated their cytotoxic activity against P-388 leukemia murine cell with 3- (4, 5-dimetiltiazol-2-yl) -2,5-difeniltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay guided toxicity test against of shrimp Artemia salina Leach. Brine shirmp Lethality Test (BSLT) method. The active extracts will be separated by fractionation using column chromatography, radial chromatography, and for analyzing the purity of isolate will estimate by HPLC. The chemical structure of pure isolate will be identified by spectroscopies data UV Vis, FTIR, NMR and MS. The ethyl acetate extract from honje seed have cytotoxic activity by leukemia P-388 cell  with IC50 19.21 µg/mL. The compound toxic as cytotoxicagainst P-388 leukemia murine cells is flavonoid compouds their is resveratrol, lapachol, apigenin, methylated chrysin, 6,2’-dihydroxyflavanone, 3-hydroxy-3,4’-dymethoxyflavone and 4’-hydroxy-5,7-dimethoxyflavanone.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.15408/jkv.v0i0.3640

Silkworms are well-known industrial insects, which produce natural fiber silk. Because of economic importance for silk yarn, an effort to breed new silkworm variety has been made for thousand years. High cocoon yielding due to high resistance, high silk reeling ability and productivity, better silk quality in neatness and lousiness is essential for new silkworm variety to increase silk productivity. Today, several hundred varieties have been bred accordingly various interests and purposes (Kang et al., 2001, 2002). Pupation rate, single cocoon weight, cocoon shell weight and cocoon shell percentage are the main factors affecting the high yielding of cocoon (Kang et al., 2001, 2002). Native silkworm varieties have the low performance and could not be commercially employed. Indigenous strains are valuable genetic resources. They have been affected by natural selection in the successive generations and adapted to indigenous diseases and environmental conditions. Genetic and phenotypic characterization of locally available native silkworm populations provides essential information to make rational decisions for the improvement and development of effective breeding programmes. Hence, the present study was undertaken to identify genetic potential of indigenous silkworm for designing suitable breeding programmes.
