EXPLORING the ANTI INFLAMMATORY PROPERTIES of Mangiferaindica USING MOLECULAR DOCKING APPROACH
© 2019 JETIR May 2019, Volume 6, Issue 5 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) EXPLORING THE ANTI INFLAMMATORY PROPERTIES OF MangiferaIndica USING MOLECULAR DOCKING APPROACH 1Khursheed Ahmed, 2Heena Pathan, 3Mrinalini Bhosale, 4Subhash Padhye 1Associate Professor, 2,3Assistant Professor, 4Professor Department of Chemistry, Abeda Inamdar Senior College, Pune, India Abstract: Mango fruit contains a number of phytochemicals having medicinal properties. These constituents are used to treat diseases of skin and throat since ancient times. Herein we have investigated the effect of different constituents of mango stem on NFκB, which is the protein uplifted in inflammation. Different constituents show high binding affinity with NFκB calculated in terms of binding energy and stability in the cavity of the protein. Introduction: MangiferaIndica, (mango tree) is one of the flowering plant species belonging to the Anacardiaceae family. This family include about 30 tropical fruiting trees with the genus Mangifera, such as Mangifera altissima, Mangifera persiciformis, Mangifera caesia, Mangifera camptosperma, Mangifera casturi, Mangifera decandra, Mangifera foetida, Mangifera indica, Mangifera griffithii, Mangifera laurina, Mangifera kemanga, Mangifera macrocarpa, Mangifera longipes, Mangifera odorata, Mangifera mekongensis, Mangifera quadrifi da, Mangifera pajang, Mangifera similis, Mangifera siamensis, Mangifera sylvactia, Mangifera torquenda, Mangifera zeylanica, Mangifera applanata,Mangifera swintonioides[1]. Major uses of various parts of the plant are -
Collection and Evaluation of Under-Utilized Tropical and Subtropical Fruit Tree Genetic Resources in Malaysia
J]RCAS International Symposium Series No. 3: 27-38 Session 1-3 27 Collection and Evaluation of Under-Utilized Tropical and Subtropical Fruit Tree Genetic Resources in Malaysia WONG, Kai Choo' Abstract Fruit tree genetic resources in Malaysia consist of cultivated and wild species. The cul tivated fruit trees number more than 100 species of both indigenous and introduced species. Among these fruits, some are popular and are widely cultivated throughout the country while others are less known and grown in small localized areas. The latter are the under-utilized fruit species. Apart from these cultivated fruits, there is also in the Malaysian natural forest a diversity of wild fruit tree species which produce edible fruits but are relatively unknown and unutilized. Many of the under-utilized and unutilized fruit species are known to show economic potential. Collection and evaluation of some of these fruit tree genetic resources have been carried out. These materials are assessed for their potential as new fruit trees, as sources of rootstocks for grafting and also as sources of germplasm for breeding to improve the present cultivated fruit species. Some of these potential fruit tree species within the gen era Artocarpus, Baccaurea, Canarium, Dimocarpus, Dialium, Durio, Garcinia, Litsea, Mangif era, Nephelium, Sa/acca, and Syzygium are highlighted. Introduction Malaysian fruit tree genetic resources comprise both cultivated and wild species. There are more than 100 cultivated fruit species of both major and minor fruit crops. Each category includes indigenous as well as introduced species. The major cultivated fruit crops are well known and are commonly grown throughout the country. -

Hundreds of fruit-bearing trees are native to Southeast Asia, but many of them are considered as indigenous or underutilized. These species can be categorized as indigenous tropical fruits with potential for commercial development and those possible for commercial development. Many of these fruits are considered as underutilized unless the commercialization is being realized despite the fact that they have the developmental potential. This review discusses seven indigenous tropical fruits from 15 species that have been identified, in which their fruits are having potential for commercial development. -

Natural Antioxidant Properties of Selected Wild Mangifera Species in Malaysia
J. Trop. Agric. and Fd. Sc. 44(1)(2016): 63 – 72 Mirfat, A.H.S., Salma, I. and Razali, M. Natural antioxidant properties of selected wild Mangifera species in Malaysia Mirfat, A.H.S.,1 Salma, I.2 and Razali, M.1 1Agrobiodiversity and Environmental Research Centre, Persiaran MARDI-UPM, 43400 Serdang, Selangor, Malaysia 2Gene Bank and Seed Centre, MARDI Headquarters, Persiaran MARDI-UPM, 43400 Serdang, Selangor, Malaysia Abstract Many wild fruit species found in Malaysia are not well known and are underutilised. Information on their health benefits is critical in efforts to promote these fruits. This study was conducted to evaluate the antioxidant potential of seven species of wild Mangifera (mango) in Malaysia: M. caesia (binjai), M. foetida (bacang), M. pajang (bambangan), M. laurina (mempelam air), M. pentandra (mempelam bemban), M. odorata (kuini) and M. longipetiolata (sepam). The results were compared to those obtained from a popular mango, M. indica. Among the mangoes, M. caesia was found to be the most potential source of antioxidant as evidenced by its potent radical scavenging activity (92.09 ± 0.62%), ferric reducing ability (0.66 ± 0.11 mm) and total flavonoid content (550.67 ± 19.78 mg/100 g). Meanwhile, M. pajang showed the highest total phenolic (7055.65 ± 101.89 mg/100 g) and ascorbic acid content (403.21 ± 46.83 mg/100 g). In general, from the results obtained, some of the wild mango relatives were found to have strong antioxidant potential that is beneficial to health. This study provides a better understanding of the nutraceutical and functional potential of underutilised Mangifera species. -

Read Full License Page 2/18 Abstract Background: Mangifera casturi Kosterm. is an endemic local mango fruit from Kalimantan Selatan, Indonesia. The limited genetic information available on this fruit has severely limited the scope of research into its genetic variation and phylogeny. This study aimed to collect genomic information from M. casturi using next-generation sequencing technology and to develop microsatellite markers and perform Sanger sequencing for DNA barcoding analysis. Results: The clean reads of the Kasturi accession of M. casturi were assembled de novo using a Ray assembler, producing 259,872 scaffolds with an N50 value of 1,445 bp. Fourteen polymorphic microsatellite markers were developed from 11,040 sequences containing microsatellite motifs. In total, 55 alleles were produced, and the mean number of alleles per locus was 3.93. -

Back in the 1940s, she said, University of Miami (UM) football players would sometimes assist with heavy lifting projects around the Garden. Any time there were massive boulders or tree trunks to be moved,A Dr. David Fairchild would phone the UM football coach and make a plea for help. I have never found proof of this in our archives, but the story fits with what we know of Dr. Fairchild’s creativity and persuasiveness. It also reflects a collaborative spirit that still exists between our Garden and local universities. Today we still have massive projects we can’t do ourselves, and we receive help from UM, Florida International University (FIU) and Miami-Dade College (MDC) in unexpected ways. -

Brazilian Journal of Food Technology, 24, e2020086. https://doi.org/10.1590/1981-6723.08620 Abstract Kuini powders were obtained through spray-drying, freeze-drying, vacuum oven drying and convection oven drying. Colour, water activity (Aw), moisture content, hygroscopicity, wettability, flowability, degree of caking, water solubility index (WSI), total colour change, total phenolic content and total carotenoid content of Kuini powders were determined and compared. Convection oven drying resulted in the highest yield (46.97%), moisture content (4.91%), Aw (0.55) and WSI (74.33%) among all the drying methods. However, convection oven-dried Kuini powder had the lowest hygroscopicity and wettability, which were 18.66% and 12.04 s, respectively.
