This allows patients to live longer, heathier, and more productive. However, in recent years, there has been an increased interest development of systematic method for the design of batch process in chemicals, food products, and pharmaceutical industries. Basically, batch plants are composed of items operating in a discontinuous way, where each batch then visits a fixed number of equipment items, as required by a given synthesis sequence so called production recipe. Many works in the literature on batch process design are based on expressions that relate the batch sizes linearly with the equipment sizes.1–10 The number required of volume and size of parallel equipment units in each stage is to be determined. Nevertheless, the design of batch plants requires involving how equipment may be utilized. However you look at it the optimal design of a multiproduct batch chemical process involves the production requirement of each product and the total production time available for all products has been considered. The number and size of parallel equipment units in each stage as well as the location and size of intermediate storage are to be determined in order to minimize the investment cost.","PeriodicalId":92063,"journal":{"name":"Journal of analytical & pharmaceutical research","volume":"44 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67072416","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}

There are approximately 14,500 species which constitutes around 75% among the bryophyte species. They are commonly found in moist shady locations. The species originated as early as the Permian period and more than 100 species have been recorded from fossils of the Paleogene and Neogene periods.1 Mosses perform various important ecological roles such as filtering and retaining water, stabilizing the ground and removing CO2 from the atmosphere. Many moss species were reported to possess unique natural products or secondary metabolites such as phenols, flavonoids, alkaloids, terpenoids and other aromatic compounds with therapeutic potentialities. Historically, the therapeutic features of herbals are the concept of doctrine of signatures. Bryophytes form the basement of Chinese medicinal treatment. For example, liverwort was used to cure hepatic disorders, Polytrichum commune induce women’s hair growth. Gaddi tribes of Himachal Pradesh, used Plagiochasma appendiculatum for treating skin diseases, Targionia hypophylla used by Irular tribec of Attappady to cure skin diseases due to resembles of thallus to the warty surface of the diseased region and Frullania ericoides, liverwort for hair-related applications by tribal people of South India. Species like Sphagnum, Barbula, Bryum, Octeblepharum and Fontinalis are used to treat different diseases, including cardiovascular diseases, inflammation, fever, lung diseases, infections, wounds and skin prone diseases.1 The aqueous extract of the three mosses like Brachythecium rutabulum, Calliergonella cuspidate and Hypnum mammillatum showed potent antioxidant activity.2,3 The species like Polytrichum commune were used as antipyretic and anti-inflammatory agent and boiled with tea for treating the cold.

However, some toxic elements such as mercury and arsenic, for example, are unlikely to be found at appreciable levels in equipment, thus, any form of contamination could mainly originate from environmental sources.4 Growth of plants linked to cereals depends on certain agricultural conditions and if these conditions lend themselves to pollution, elemental uptake in the plant could result in elevated metal toxins. Contaminated soil conditioners, polluted irrigation water and noxious pesticides could all play a role in contaminating vegetable matter that are associated with cereal production.

The main accent in our method development strategy was focused on mobile phase, composed of simple binary system composed of phosphate buffer and acetonitrile, at pH 4.1, without use of tetrahydrofuran, ion-pair reagents, trifluoroacetic acid and other modifiers with high Ultraviolet (UV) cut-off like absorptive acetate or formiate buffers or amines.
