In vitro ANTI-INFLAMMATORY ACTIVITY USING FRUIT FORMULATION MEDIATED ZINC OXIDE NANOPARTICLES | PLANT CELL BIOTECHNOLOGY AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY

 The aim of this study was to see whether zinc oxide nanoparticles made from Punica granatum and Elettaria cardamomum had anti-inflammatory properties.


Background: Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as aspirin, diclofenac, and ibuprofen are the most widely prescribed and used drugs for inflammation and its related conditions. Unfortunately, these medications have a lot of negative side effects. As a result, there has been an increase in the quest for a more powerful and secure alternative. To minimise the side effects, zinc oxide nanoparticles, which have strong anti-inflammatory efficacy, were prepared using a green method mediated by extracts from Punica granatum and Elettaria cardamomum.

Materials and Methods: Punica granatum and Elettaria cardamomum extracts were collected and prepared, zinc oxide nanoparticles were synthesised, nanoparticles were collected using centrifugation, nanoparticles were characterised, anti-inflammatory activity of ZnO nanoparticles was determined using ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, and albumin denaturation inhibition was tested.

Results: Zinc oxide nanoparticles induced by Punica granatum and Elettaria cardamomum demonstrated anti-inflammatory activity comparable to Diclofenac.

Conclusion: The findings of the study indicate that zinc oxide nanoparticles induced by Punica granatum and Elettaria cardamomum have potent anti-inflammatory properties, and more studies can be done to test it for various medicinal purposes.

Symplocos racemosa BARK MEDIATED COPPER NANOPARTICLES AND ITS ASSESSMENT OF ANTI-INFLAMMATORY ACTIVITY | PLANT CELL BIOTECHNOLOGY AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY

 To make copper nanoparticles out of Lodhra bark and test their anti-inflammatory properties. Copper nanoparticles are antifungal and antibacterial agents that are extremely tiny. The copper free radicals then oxidise lipids in cell membranes, causing the membranes to degenerate. As a consequence of the degraded membranes, intracellular compounds leak out of cells, resulting in cell death. The local reaction of living mammalian tissues to injury is inflammation. It's a natural defence mechanism designed to stop or slow the spread of harmful agents. 1 g of freshly collected Lodhra bark is extracted and thoroughly mixed with 100 ml of distilled water, then boiled for 3 to 5 minutes in a heating mantle, filtered through filter paper, and held in a shaker. For nanoparticle synthesis, copper sulphate was combined with plant extract and kept in a shaker. Albumin denaturation assay was used to assess the anti-inflammatory function. The formation of copper nanoparticles mediated by lodhra bark was visually observed and conformed using UV visible spectroscopy. Copper nanoparticles at different concentrations have demonstrated dose-dependent inflammatory activity. In contrast to the regular 90 percent, a 50 micro lite inhibition shower has a maximum inhabitation of 81 percent. Copper nanoparticles mediated by Lodhra bark were found to be cost-effective and simple to make, with excellent anti-inflammatory properties. As a result, it will be useful in a variety of medical fields in the future.

Introduction: The objective is to understand the anti-inflammatory activity of medical copper nanoparticles provided by turmeric and Tulsi. Turmeric is a perennial, rhizomatous, herbaceous plant that requires temperatures between 20 and 30 ° C (68 and 86 ° F) and a substantial amount of annual rainfall to thrive, native to the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia. For their rhizomes, plants are gathered each year, some for propagation in the following season and some for consumption. Curcumin, a turmeric material, may help reduce body inflammation, so it has been widely marketed as a supplement, turmeric has also been applied to the skin for pain or swelling, and essential oil has also been added. The principal active ingredient in turmeric is curcumin. It has strong anti-inflammatory effects and is an antioxidant that is very effective. There are several medicinal properties in the Basil or Tulsi plant (Ocimum tenuiflorum). The leaves reinforce the stomach and assist with respiratory problems.
