Abstract:-

Breastfeeding is universally recognized as the gold standard for infant nutrition, providing essential nutrients and immune protection that contributes to the overall health and well-being of both infants and mothers. The World Health Organization (WHO) emphasizes the importance of exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of an infant's life, followed by continued breastfeeding alongside complementary foods for up to two years or more1. Breastfeeding is the normal way of providing young infants with the nutrients they need for healthy growth and development. Improving Breastfeeding rates around the world could save the lives of more than 820,000 children under age 5 every year, the majority (87 percent) being under 6 months of age 2

Abstract:-

Blood is the most essential component of the human body is important for every activity and is regarded as the gift of life. Evidence indicates that there is no substitute for blood, furthermore, scientific reports have revealed that every 3 seconds a blood transfusion is required. Blood transfusion saves lives; however, obtaining safe blood at the right time is challenging these days.

IN-VIVO TOXICITY STUDY AND SCREENING OF IMMUNOMODULATORY ACTIVITY

SURESH CHANDRA1, DR. SHOAEB MOHAMMAD SYED2

Abstract:-

Traditional medicine makes extensive use of Curcuma species (family: Zingiberaceae) to address a variety of immune-related conditions. Their ethnopharmacological usage have been backed by numerous scientific investigations into their immunomodulatory effects. The article provided a critical analysis of the immunomodulatory properties of Curcuma plant different species, examined potential avenues for further study, and provided pertinent perspectives on the facilities as a potential source of novel immunomodulators to regulate. In vivo trials using the plants' crude extracts were the main focus of pharmacological investigations into their immunomodulatory effects. There was a dearth of mechanistic research into the underlying mechanisms, and most of the bioactive metabolites with immunomodulatory properties had already been identified. By the end of the 14-day study, haematological parameters had been examined. Clinical trials for the development of immunomodulatory drugs cannot be pursued without further comprehensive toxicity investigations and investigation into exploring the fundamental processes of immune-related disorders using in vivo laboratory model animals.

RAJESH PARIHAR1, DR. SHARAD KUMAR2

Abstract:-

The incorporation of Internet of Things (IoT) and intelligent sensors in agriculture is transforming conventional farming methods by offering instantaneous data and automated solutions. These technologies provide accurate monitoring of environmental conditions, crop vitality, and resource utilization, resulting in enhanced efficiency and sustainable farming practices. Through the utilization of IoT technology and intelligent sensors, farmers have the ability to maximize irrigation efficiency, minimize resource wastage, and improve agricultural productivity. This investigation’s chief goal is to probe the utilization of IoT and intelligent sensors in agricultural applications. This study utilized qualitative research approach. This novel strategy tackles the increasing worldwide need for food while advocating for ecologically sustainable methods. Ultimately, the utilization of IoT and intelligent sensors in agriculture possesses significant capacity for revolutionizing the sector. These technologies have notable advantages, such as enhanced efficiency, increased yields, and diminished environmental impact. Nevertheless, additional investigation and advancement are required to surmount obstacles associated with expense, expandability, and compatibility. As these technologies advance, they hold the potential to be essential in establishing sustainable and efficient agriculture practices globally.
