Biodiesel is a renewable, non-toxic, environment-friendly and an economically feasible option to tackle the depleting fossil fuels and its negative environmental impact. Biodiesel in general possess higher kinematic viscosity and density than conventional diesel. However, because of food security concerns, the use of edible oil in biodiesel production is criticized globally. Non-edible plant oils, waste cooking oils, and edible oil industry byproducts are suggested as effective biodiesel feedstocks because nonedible feedstock does not compete with food from human consumption. High-potential second-generation feedstock for biodiesel production uses waist cooking oil, acid oil, and animal tallow. Non edible crops in India as a feedstock for biodiesel production are yellow oleander oil (Cascabela thevetia), Pongamia (Pongamia pinnata), Jatropha curcas, Mahua (Madhuca longifolia), Candlenut (Aleurites moluccanus), Rubber (Hevea brasiliensis), Soapnut (Sapindus mukorossi), Jojoba (Simmondsia chinensis), Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum), Neem (Azadirachta indica), Karanja (Millettia pinnata), Castor (Ricinus communis), Polanga (Calophyllum inophyllum L), Cotton (Gossypium), Kusum (Carthamus tinctorius), Yellow oleander (Cascabela thevetia), Sea mango (Cerbera odollam), Tung (Vernicia fordii), and Bottle tree (Brachychiton rupestris). Biodiesel is a sustainable liquid bio-energy resource that might be used to replace diesel fuel. Despite having numerous advantages over conventional diesel, the biodiesel industry is still struggling in India because of various reasons and challenges like availability, high feedstock pricing, operational hurdles, and supply-chain management challenges.","PeriodicalId":400966,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Biological and Pharmaceutical Sciences Archive","volume":"66 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139205633","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A large part of the world's population are infected with one or more of helminthes infection (WHO, 2016). Helminthes are endemic and have been a major problem in rural settlements in Nigeria this is as a result of poor socio- economic status and lack of basic amenities such as pipe borne water and other sanitary facilities (Okon and Okun, 2001). They also have detrimental effects on animal survival (Silva et al., 2009) and these parasites have the potential of being transmitted to human (Batchelor et al., 2008). To provide information on the prevalence, intensity and predisposing factors of intestinal helminth among School-aged children in relation to their age and gender in Fufore. Methods: A cross sectional study was carried out to determine the prevalence of intestinal helminth and the predisposing factors in Fofure LGA of Adamawa State between October and November 2022 where five Schools were sampled for the study. 300 Students between the ages 0-15 years were randomly selected and grouped into three age groups (0-5, 6-10, 11-15). 300 stool samples were obtained from the students and examined. Each were issued a structured questionnaire so as to obtain their demographic characteristics and to examine the possible risk factors associated with this infection. Result: out of the 300 Students examined, 17(5.7%) were positive for intestinal helminth and the Males (6.7%) had significantly higher prevalence (P < 0.05) than the Females (4.4%). In respect to age, the age group 0-5 (11.5%) were significantly more infected (P < 0.05) followed by the age group 6-10 (7.9%) than the extreme age group 11-15 (1.5%) examined. Three parasites namely Schistosoma mansoni, Ascaris lumbricoides and Trichiuris trichiura were recovered. The most common of these parasites were Schistosoma mansoni and Ascaris lumbricoides which occurred in high intensity in most of the positive samples. Interpretation and Conclusion: The result of this study revealed that, poverty, ignorance, socio-cultural practice, poor hygienic practices, inadequate sanitary/ toiletry facility to be the driving forces of this infection in the study area. Intervention needed to curtail the effect and further transmission of this infection include; massive treating and health education, provision of portable drinking water and provision of good sanitary/ toilet facility.","PeriodicalId":400966,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Biological and Pharmaceutical Sciences Archive","volume":"39 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139199429","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Another name for HAIs is nosocomial infections (NI).These infections arise from illnesses that patients contract while they are in the hospital and can have major negative effects on their health, such as increased morbidity, prolonged hospital stays, or even death. The rise of antibiotic-resistant pathogens has only added to the complexity and severity of HAIs. Healthcare facilities need to take a thorough, evidence-based strategy to HAI prevention and control in order to solve this issue. This entails carrying out evidence-based procedures, like cleaning the environment, using the proper antimicrobial agents, and practicing hand hygiene, in addition to continuously assessing and evaluating their HAI prevention program. Improving patient outcomes, cutting healthcare costs, and preserving public confidence in the healthcare system all depend on lowering the prevalence of HAIs. Improvements in hospital epidemiological surveillance, infection control practices, and the implementation of HAI prevention guidelines should lead to a decrease in the frequency of morbidity and mortality. Nonetheless, HAIs continue to be a major worry for high-risk populations.","PeriodicalId":400966,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Biological and Pharmaceutical Sciences Archive","volume":"16 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139205527","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This situation leads to the search for alternatives via medicinal plants. To investigate the antibacterial and antioxidant activities of hydroalcoholic extract of Canarium schweinfurthii trunk bark commonly used in traditional medicine for the treatment of various pathologies. The primary phytochemical study was performed on hydro alcoholic extract of the trunk bark dried in the shade. The antioxidant activity of the extract was evaluated using ferric reducing power and the free radical scavenging activity against 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and the antibacterial test and MIC was determined by using dilution methods against twenty-two strains of bacteria. The phytochemical screening has shown the presence of phenolic compounds, flavonoids, tannins, terpenoids, alkaloids and steroids. The antioxidant activity demonstrated that the extract at the concentration of 500μg/mL scavenges DPPH and the ferric ion by 65.07%, and 90.36% of the radicals respectively. The antibacterial activity demonstated that the extract ihnibited the strains used independently of the gram with MICs varying between 1.95 and 31.25mg/mL. The extract also showed an absolute bactericidal potential on multiresistant strains. The antibacterial potential could be due to the presence of phenolic compounds.

Research has shown that T. vaginalis infection is associated with high risk of several sexually transmitted infections. This study was to provide information on the coinfection rate with some STDs and the correlation between clinical diagnoses and confirmatory laboratory diagnosis among women of reproductive age in Jalingo. Methods: A prospective, cross-sectional and laboratory- based research was carried out on the Correlational studies on clinical and laboratory diagnoses of T. vaginalis and it co-infection with HIV Candidiasis and Syphilis among women of reproductive age in Jalingo North-Central Nigeria, between November 2022 to March 2023. A health facility (Mimllins Laboratories Limited) was selected from Jalingo local government area. One hundred (100) Women within the reproductive age group of 15 to 50 years, seeking health care in the selected facility that fulfilled the inclusion criteria and grant consent were enrolled. A pretested structured interviewer’s questionnaire was used to collect data on clinical presentation. Results: A total of 100 eligible women between the ages of 15 to 50 years’ resident in Jalingo, Taraba State and attends to at the selected facility were examined. The overall prevalence of Trichomoniasis among the general population was 13%. For co-infection rates with HIV, syphilis, and Candidiasis, all the HIV-infected participants (4) had T. vaginalis infection while 70% (7/10) of the population that had syphilis had T. vaginalis infection. Both diseases (HIV and Syphilis) had a very strong association with T. vaginalis infection among the population (both p-values= 0.000). Candidiasis on the other hand had no significant association with T. vaginalis infection (p=1.000). Based on the clinical diagnosis, abdominal pain and burning sensation gave strong associations with T. vaginalis infection (p values were 0.001 and 0.005 respectively). However, the reverse was the case for vaginal itching and discharge (both p-values were 1.000). Conclusion: A greater percentage of T. vaginalis positive women came to the laboratory because they had related uncomfortable symptoms. This is problematic since some women in this area are unaware of the importance of having regular gynecological examinations unless symptoms appear. Hence, general surveillance for sexually transmitted diseases, an effective way to prevent T. vaginalis infection, is needed.","PeriodicalId":400966,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Biological and Pharmaceutical Sciences Archive","volume":"27 ","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136019639","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
