TL;DR: An attempt has been made to evaluate the presence of hypoglycemic activity in the alcoholic extract of Aloe vera gel, which is believed to maintain the glucose homeostasis by controlling the carbohydrate metabolizing enzymes.
Abstract: In the present study an attempt has been made to evaluate the presence of hypoglycemic activity in the alcoholic extract of Aloe vera gel. Effects of oral administration of A. vera extract at a concentration of 200 and 300 mg/kg of body weight on (a) normal fasted rats, (b) oral glucose-loaded rats, and (c) streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats have been studied. A. vera extract maintain the glucose homeostasis by controlling the carbohydrate metabolizing enzymes.

TL;DR: Ecdysteroids are the molting hormones in Crustacea and they also subserve functions in the control of reproduction and embryogenesis, although recent evidence suggests a stimulatory role for yet another endocrine gland, the mandibular organ on Y-organ synthesis.

TL;DR: The standard method seems to be the most efficient followed by the new method and the differential version of the standard method (in that order), as far as the CPU time for the computation of the Lyapunov spectra is concerned.

TL;DR: The results of diversity, antimicrobial activity and enzymes production have increased the scope of finding industrially important marine actinomycetes from the Bay of Bengal and these organisms could be vital sources for the discovery of Industrially useful molecules/enzymes.
Abstract: A total of 288 marine samples were collected from different locations of the Bay of Bengal starting from Pulicat lake to Kanyakumari, and 208 isolates of marine actinomycetes were isolated using starch casein agar medium. The growth pattern, mycelial coloration, production of exopolysaccharides and diffusible pigment and abundance of Streptomyces spp. were documented. Among marine actinomycetes, Streptomyces spp. were present in large proportion (88%). Among 208 marine actinomycetes, 111 isolates exhibited antimicrobial activity against human pathogens, and 151 showed antifungal activity against two plant pathogens. Among 208 isolates, 183, 157, 116, 72 and 68 isolates produced lipase, caseinase, gelatinase, cellulase and amylase, respectively. The results of diversity, antimicrobial activity and enzymes production have increased the scope of finding industrially important marine actinomycetes from the Bay of Bengal and these organisms could be vital sources for the discovery of industrially useful molecules/enzymes.
