It is a cleaning aid for human hair. The shampoo is used for various purposes. There wide range applications of formulations of shampoo. These are hair cleaning, antidandruff, anti-lice, anti-dirt, hair conditioning, and smoothing of hair surface. The demand for herbal shampoo has increased due to its compatibility with the human hairs and skin. This shampoo is safe to human skin over synthetic shampoo. Though the lather formation is good in synthetic shampoos, these contain a chemical preservative that has harmful effects on human skin. In the present investigation, three herbal shampoo formulations and one market sample have been evaluated. The herbal formulation, with selfpreserving property, has been given preference over chemical preservatives. Eight herbal powders have been used in the preparation of three different herbal formulations. The evaluation of the shampoo formulations has been done...

The chemical pesticides have adverse effects on human health and on the environment. Biopesticides play a significant role in organic farming and in the integrated pest management (IPM) system. Pesticides of plant origin are a good alternative to the synthetic pesticides. In the present investigation, water extracts and methanol extracts from the leaves of Lantana camara (L.) were tested for their insecticidal property on Callosobruchus macullatus (Pulse beetle) under laboratory conditions. C. macullatus is commonly known as pulses beetle. C. macullatus is a serious post-harvest pest that attacks the economically important legumes especially pulses. It is a common pest of stored legumes that has a cosmopolitan distribution. Cowpea seed beetles were treated with different concentrations viz. 0.02%, 0.04%, 0.06%, 0.08%, 0.1% and 0.2% of L. camera methanol leaf extracts. Th...

It has been employed commonly since the ancient period traditionally by the native population for various ailments. This plant has a variety of applications such as laxative, antipyretic, stomachic, cardiotonic, expectorant, hypotensive, diuretic, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and kidney stimulant. Punarnava is potent medicine on asthma, jaundice, eye diseases, urine complaints and menstrual cramps. However, there is confusion regarding the real identity of ‘Punarnava.’ Rakta Punarnava is equated with B. diffusa L., Neel Punarnava with B. repanda, and Shvet Punarnava with B. erecta and Trianthema portulacastrum L. In the present work, detailed comparative morphology, anatomy, pharmacognosy, phytochemistry, and chromatographical studies, along with the biological activity of all four Punarnava species, have been carried out. The...

This plant has an important role in the human health care system. Seeds C. bonduc are used to treat cancer, eyesores, tuberculosis, asthma, toothaches, and fever. The seed extract of this plant has antioxidant, anti-microbial, anti-diabetic, anti-bacterial and antipyretic properties. However, the number of this medicinally important plant has significantly become low due to the poor seed germination rate, longer duration of seed dormancy, over-utilization as medicinal plant and destruction of natural habitats. In the present investigation, efforts have been made to employ the in vivo and in vitro methods to increase the seed germination percentage. It has been recorded that the seed germination percentage in the in vivo methods is very low as compared to In vitro seed germination method. The seeds of C.bonduc (L)Roxb. shown 100% germination and rapid growth of root as well shoot in the semisolid agar mediu...
