Biological activity and its related compounds of Red Jasmine rice extracts linked to normal fibroblast viability for cosmetic product

Red jasmine rice is recognized as a healthy food with high phenolic compounds. These compounds present antibacterial and anti-free radical properties. Moreover, colored rice exhibits a biological activity against anticancer. Objectives of this study are 1) exploring a biological screening and cell viability of 70% ethanol and aqueous extracts of red jasmine rice, 2) investigating cytotoxicity to fibroblast NIH3T3 (IC80) that is one hundred cells were found cell viability 80 cells. Red jasmine rice extracts were dried and transformed into a powder using the freeze-drying method. The extracts were treated with fibroblast NIH3T3 for MTT. The highest of IC50 of red jasmine rice extract to scavenge the DPPH and ABTS radicals was found in ethanol extract (53.20±7.37 and 64.17±5.76, respectively). The experiment showed that the ethanol and aqueous extract of red rice did not show cytotoxicity to fibroblast NIH3T3 (IC80). The extracts of red rice show the biological screening of anti-oxidation with total phenolic compounds and flavonoid contents. Moreover, it does not modify the physical properties of the cream formula. It can be concluded that the red rice extract is highly promising for the value addition.

A Greener Approach for Synthesis of Quinoline-3-carboxylate Building Block and their Biological Screening

The analogs of nitrogen-based heterocycles occupy an exclusive position as a value of more than 75% of drugs approved by the FDA and currently available in the market are nitrogen-containing heterocyclic moieties. Among many N-containing heterocycles, quinolines have become important due to their variety of applications in medicinal, synthetic organic chemistry as well as in the field of industrial chemistry. Present work gives information about the green and clean synthesis using multicomponent reactions (MCRs) methods and L-proline and ammonium acetate as a catalyst for the synthesis of quinoline derivatives. Synthesized quinoline derivatives undergo spectroscopic analysis and their biological evaluation.

Synthesis, Characterization and Biological Screening of Alkylene Dithiophosphate Derivatives of Macrocyclic Complexes of Pb (II)

Alkylenedithiophosphate derivatives of macrocyclic complexes of Pb (II), having N4S4 potential donors, of the general formula, [Pb(L){S2P(OR)2}2] where L=macrocyclic ligands L1, L2, L3, L4 and L5; R= C2H5-, C3H7n or C3H7i have been synthesized from the reaction of [Pb(L)X2(where X= Clˉ, NO3ˉ or CH3COOˉ) with sodium Alkylenedithiophosphate in 1:2 molar ratios in THF. These complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductance, molecular weight determinations, IR, 1H, 13C NMR. Macrocyclic Complexes of Pb (II) derivatives have been studied by screening them Aspergillus flavus, Fusarium oxysporum, Alternaria alternata and bacteria like Salmonella typhi and Bacillus subtili. Alkylenedithiophosphate derivatives were found to be more fungitoxic and antibacterial than their corresponding macrocyclic complexes.
