R. Sharma | | Abstract : Swertia chirayita Buch-Ham. (F. Gentianaceae) is a critically endangered herb mainly found in the north
western Himalaya from Kashmir to Bhutan and Khasi hills at an altitude of 1100 - 3300 m. The main chemical
constituents of this plant are two bitter principles, viz, ophelic acid, an amorphous bitter principle and chiratin, a
yellow bitter glucoside. Swertia Chirayita has traditionally been used to treat disorder of liver, bronchial asthma,
reduce fever, chronic fever, anemia etc. The extract of this medicinal herb show activities of antioxidative,
antihepatotoxic, hypoglcacemic, antihelminthic, and antipyretic properties which are attributed to
amarogentin(most bitter compound isolated till date), swerchirin, swertiamarin and other active principles of
widespread use. The current study explored the feasibility of temporary immersion system which was most
promising for industrial plant propagation because of its prominent technology in reducing the labor and providing
low production cost for obtaining large amount of biomass of Swertia chirayita. Commercial propagation of
Swertia chirayita using this system showed 3-4 fold increase in rate of multiplication and biomass increase driven
by aeration which was supplied only during dark phase. | | | | Author Profile | Full-Text PDF | |

studied.Salivariadenectomy includes removal of both sublingual and submandibular glands. Sublingualectomy is
the removal of sublingual glands of both sides and sialoadenectomy means removal of both submandibular
glands.Male mice were underwent salivariadenectomy on 20thday. The controls were sham operatedand they were
sacrificed on 45th and 90th day and testis was dissected out to study lipid estimation and thin layer chromatography.
It was found that there was nonsignificant changes in testicular lipids were found in the sublingualectomised mice.
But the significant changes in testicular lipids were found in the sialoadenectomised and salivariadenectomised
mice as compared to controls. | | | | Author Profile | Full-Text PDF | |
