Download or read book FUNDAMENTAL ASPECTS OF PHARMACOGNOSY SCIENCE written by Prof(Dr)Sailesh Narayan and published by Newredmars Education Pvt Ltd. This book was released on 2024-02-05 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook marks a pioneering attempt to align with the updated syllabus set by the Pharmacy Council of India for semester-4, focusing on Pharmacognosy & Phytochemistry-I. While numerous established authors have penned texts on Pharmacognosy, this edition distinguishes itself by presenting information in a simplified manner, complemented with abundant tables, figures, and essential diagrams. The primary goal is to facilitate easy comprehension for students. Aligned with the revised syllabus of the Bachelor of Pharmacy (B. Pharm.) course regulations 2014, this book follows the norms outlined in Regulations 6, 7 & 8 and subsequent amendments from 2017 onward, ensuring uniformity across India. The content is structured to match the semester-wise syllabus, with Pharmacognosy & Phytochemistry-I falling under semester-IV. This subject comprises five sub-units: Unit – I: Encompassing discussions on the history, scope, interconnections with related disciplines, and contemporary applications of Pharmacognosy. It delves into crude drug classifications, various sources, and emphasizes quality control techniques, including detection methods for adulterants through microscopic evaluation and camera lucida. Unit − II: This unit provides a comprehensive exploration of cultivation, collection, processing, and storage of naturally derived drugs. It emphasizes Good Agricultural Practice, factors influencing cultivation, and the role of plant hormones. Additionally, it covers crop improvement techniques such as polyploidy, mutation, and hybridization, as well as the conservation of medicinal and aromatic plants. Unit − III: Explores alternative cultivation methods through in-vitro techniques, specifically plant cell and tissue culture. It traces the historical development, types of cultures, nutritional requirements, growth, and maintenance under sterile laboratory conditions. The unit also touches upon applications of plant tissue culture in Pharmacognosy. Unit − IV: Focuses on Pharmacognosy's role in allopathy and traditional medicinal systems like Ayurveda, Unani, Siddha, Homeopathy, and Chinese medicine. It elucidates the significance of plant secondary metabolites and methods for identifying alkaloids, glycosides, flavonoids, tannins, volatile oils, and resins. Unit − V: Covers the study of biological sources, chemical nature, and uses of drugs derived from plant fibers and primary metabolites. Detailed discussions include their chemistry, sources, preparation, evaluation, therapeutic uses, and commercial utility as Pharmaceutical aids. Additionally, it delves into important drugs obtained from marine sources. This book endeavors to offer contemporary knowledge in a systematic manner across all units.

This book was released on 2013-03-20 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plant tissue culture (PTC) is basic to all plant biotechnologies and is an exciting area of basic and applied sciences with considerable scope for further research. PTC is also the best approach to demonstrate the totipotency of plant cells, and to exploit it for numerous practical applications. It offers technologies for crop improvement (Haploid and Triploid production, In Vitro Fertilization, Hybrid Embryo Rescue, Variant Selection), clonal propagation (Micropropagation), virus elimination (Shoot Tip Culture), germplasm conservation, production of industrial phytochemicals, and regeneration of plants from genetically manipulated cells by recombinant DNA technology (Genetic Engineering) or cell fusion (Somatic Hybridization and Cybridization). Considerable work is being done to understand the physiology and genetics of in vitro embryogenesis and organogenesis using model systems, especially Arabidopsis and carrot, which is likely to enhance the efficiency of in vitro regeneration protocols. All these aspects are covered extensively in the present book. Since the first book on Plant Tissue Culture by Prof. P.R. White in 1943, several volumes describing different aspects of PTC have been published. Most of these are compilation of invited articles by different experts or proceedings of conferences. More recently, a number of books describing the Methods and Protocols for one or more techniques of PTC have been published which should serve as useful laboratory manuals. The impetus for writing this book was to make available a complete and up-to-date text covering all basic and applied aspects of PTC for the students and early-career researchers of plant sciences and plant / agricultural biotechnology. The book comprises of nineteen chapters profusely illustrated with self-explanatory illustrations. Most of the chapters include well-tested protocols and relevant media compositions that should be helpful in conducting laboratory experiments. For those interested in further details, Suggested Further Reading is given at the end of each chapter, and a Subject and Plant Index is provided at the end of the book.
