A weak to moderate positive correlation between Fe2O3 + MgO and Al2O3 (r=0.4) contents indicate the dominance of mafic rock fragments, clay minerals and/or micas. The trace element ratios like Th/U of <4 are indicative of first cycle sediment input and >4 were recycled sediments with some degree of weathering. The REE patterns of the shales (normalized to chondrite) are LREE enriched with a flat HREE, lacking strong Eu deficiency while some of the samples show pronounced positive Eu anomaly indicating both felsic and mafic derivation. This mixed source is also indicated by a wide range in the La/Th ratios (avg., 3.4; range 0.9-7.1) and high positive correlation (r = 0.8) between Cr and Ni. These observations imply that sediments were mainly derived from dissected arc-systems and mixed with continental derived sediments. Thus the involvement of the arc systems place constraints on the nature of plate boundary in eastern part of the Cuddapah basin and relate it to the supercontinent episodes during the Proterozoic thus involving a more complex paleogeodynamic evolution of the Cuddapah basin.<#LINE#>Armstrong-Altrin J.S., Lee Y.I., Verma S.P. and Ramasamy S.

Development of flavor enhancer using natural ingredients may bring vast benefits to the humans’ nutrition. This study was carried out to examine the potentiality of antioxidant activity, phenolic content and bioactive components of newly developed flavor enhancer. The methanol extracts of three samples of flavor enhancer had significant DPPH activity (68.442 ± 0.20693 mg Gallic Acid Equivalent/100g) and Total phenolic content (137.646 ± 0.577 mg Gallic Acid Equivalent /100g). The bioactive components of newly developed flavor enhancer have been evaluated using GC/MS analysis carried out in three different extracts via Acetone, Methanol and Chloroform which revealed the existence of various phytocomponents. The study also highlighted the presence of some known biologically active phyto components like Antimicrobial compounds, antioxidant compounds, anti-inflammatory compounds, anti cancer and antitumor compound. Hence present study showed the medicinal potentiality of this newly developed natural flavor enhancer.<#LINE#>Diplock A.T., Charleux J.L. and Crozier-Willi G.

The aqueous, hydroethanolic, ethanolic and chloroformic extract have been prepared. The most important yield was obtained with hydroethanolic extract of the barks. The qualitative analyses by colored reactions in tubes of the aqueous extract have emphasized respectively 13 and 11 chemical families in bark and stems. The thin layer chromatography of the chloroformic extract revealed the presence of sterols and terpenoids; the one of hydroethanolic extract, the presence of flavonoids and phenolic acid in the two organs.  The quantitative evaluation showed more contents raised in alkaloids, total phenol (ethanolic extract) and flavonoids (hydroethanolic extract) in the bark that in the stems. Antioxidant properties according 1.1-diphényl-2-picrylhydrazyle (DPPH) method revealed more important effect with ethanolic extract of the bark and stem than with the aqueous and hydroethanolic extracts. These results certainly explain the important use of this plant in traditional medicine.<#LINE#>Bouquet A.

We found that the preparation time for the compounds was reduced from 24 hours to 5-10 minutes duing microwave heating. The yield also very poor (78-80%) for the compounds during conventional heating, but in MWI methods the yields were observed 96.68-98.50% which was comparatively too high. By using FT-IR, 1H-NMR spectral data, the synthesized compounds were characterized. The cytotoxic and antimicrobial activities of the compounds were also investigated. Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus megaterium, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli revealed the inhibition zone were 8-14 mm where sample concentration was 100 &#956;g/disc. However, cytotoxic analysis, the mortality 49-89% were appeared when sample concentration were 0.78-6.25(&#956;g/ml) and more than 12.5 (&#956;g/ml) concentration showed 100% mortality. The presence of a reactive and unsaturated ketone function in synthesized compounds may be responsible for their potential antimicrobial and cytotoxic activity.<#LINE#>Thierney J.P. and Lidstrm P.

<#LINE#>Bioactive Compounds and Medicinal Value of two Spices-Zingiber officinale Rosc. and Curcuma longa Linn<#LINE#>Andzouana@Marcel,Makomo@Hubert <#LINE#>35-40<#LINE#>6.ISCA-RJCS-2016-215.pdf<#LINE#>Department of Chemistry, faculty of Sciences and technics, Marien NGOUABI, University, Brazzaville, Congo@Department of Chemistry, faculty of Sciences and technics, Marien NGOUABI, University, Brazzaville, Congo<#LINE#>23/8/2016<#LINE#>29/9/2016<#LINE#>Zingiber officinale Rosc. and  Curcuma longa Linn  are two medicinal plants widely used as spices and are known in folk medicine for  their   various uses. Qualitative and quantitative analyses of the two spices were undertaken in various solvents using different methods to determine the medicinal value of these spices. The spices were assessed for the following phytochemicals: glycosides, flavonoids, saponins, alkaloids, terpenoids, tannins, tannins, phenols, carotenoids, anthocyanins and steroids. The test compounds were present in most of the screened plant extracts. Morever phytochemicals were highly present in ethanol extracts of both plants than in ethyl acetat extracts. Anthocyanins, phenols and tannins were the most common phytochemicals present in the extracts. Quantitative analysis showed that the plants contained various concentrations of phytochemicals. The results also indicated that C.longa contained appreciable amounts (0.02±0.01-15.07±0.04%) of phytoconstituents other than ginger (0.02±0.03-22.41%). The spices contained different bioactive compounds with biological properties leading  us to conclude that  consumption of the two varieties of capsicum spices may be important in health care and could be recommended  in   nutritional supplementation either as source of drugs in folk medicine.<#LINE#>Kim J.K., Kim Y., Na K.M., Surh Y.J. and Kim T.Y.

The OMCPEE was calibrated with standard iron sulfate FeSO4 in 2 M HCl as a supporting electrolyte. Under optimized conditions, the proposed method has shown acceptable analytical performances. Two couples of well-defined redox peaks, which are corresponded to the oxidation of iron(II) and ferroin complex are recorded. The scan rate effect suggested thatthe electrode reaction corresponds to anadsorption-controlled process. Using the proposed method, iron was successfully determined in ore samples, suggesting that this method can be applied to the determination of iron in geological matrices.<#LINE#>Alafara A.B., Adekola F.A. and Lawal A.J.

Now a day the study of chemistry of metal-drug interaction has become more popular in the design of more biologically active drugs. The present work comprises Potentiometric studies of complexation of amoxicillin with Mn (II) ions in 50% aqueous ethanol medium at three different temperatures (30, 35 and 40oC) and at 0.1 M (NaNO3) ionic strength. Calvin-Bjerrum pH titration process as used by Irving and Rossotti is used for the calculation of stability constants of the metal complexes. It is observed that Mn (II) ions form 1:1 and 1:2 complexes. Various thermodynamic parameters eg. Gibbs free energy change (&#916;G), enthalpy changes (&#916;H) and entropy changes (&#916;S) have also been calculated, which shows formation of metal complexes to be spontaneous, exothermic and stability of complexes at lower temperature.<#LINE#>Waksman S.A.

There are several methods available for the treatment of VOCs exists in the atmosphere. Biological oxidation methods which are adopted for controlling gaseous VOCs have been found as simple techniques to control contaminated gases present in air due to its simple operating conditions, normal design and low cost. This review includes an overview of the various biological oxidation methods which have been used for VOC removal from air. The methods discussed in this review also include details information of their configuration and design, operating mechanism, internal activities of microbial biodegradation process and requirement of future R&D in this area.<#LINE#>Kamal M.S., Razzak, S.A. and Hossain M.M.
