Recent Advances in Scientific Research

Scientific Study from the year 2018 in the subject Chemistry - Bio-chemistry, , language: English, abstract: During the last few years, a variety of Schiff base complexes have been reported and their biological activities have been investigated. The coordination chemistry of ruthenium with P, N-donor ligands have been overviewed which received much attention in the last couple of years due to academic interest as well as industrial needs. Especially in the field of catalysis for different chemical transformations.

Therefore, an attempt has been made to provide a base of essential information of some areas in scientific research, which would help the budding researcher to develop a model, to design the experiments and to implement the strategies for the development of society and the improvement of the quality of life.

The recent advancement in science and technology has brought the revolutionary changes in every aspect of human life. But one cannot overlook the traditional system, which is the base of all the revolutionary changes. Nowadays people are turning towards the ancient system which is based on natural products because of its fewer chances of side effects. The ancient system of Indian science of medicine 'Ayurveda' reports a large number of plants that are effective in treating liver diseases. Some studies showed the therapeutic effects of plants because of its phytocompounds. Therefore, by adopting proper protocols, pharmacological experiments and clinical trials, new potent drugs and nutraceuticals could be developed from the indigenous medicinal plants.

The Microbes play an important role in every aspect of life. Phosphate solubilizing microbes are very important in any soil as well as in tea gardens. Attempts were made to isolate phosphate solubilizing microbes (PSM) from different tea estates of Assam, India. The isolated strains could be used to improve the phosphate nutrition of the tea soil and plant in an economic and eco-friendly way.

In the past few decades, there is an increase in population density around the world, which put tremendous pressure on the agricultural land. To meet the nutritional needs of such a large population will require increasing agricultural productivity through a combination of methods. Breeding could be used as a tool for the crop improvement programmes, which is dependent on genetic variability and heritability. Therefore, sound knowledge of genetic diversity is necessary for proper breeding programmes to develop the superior quality crop.
