Experimental Phytochemistry A Laboratory Manual

We are very pleased to put forth the 'Laboratory Manual of Pharmacognosy and Phytochemistry I'. This manual is prepared as per PCI B. Pharm course regulations 2014 and is divided into four sections i.e detection of crude drugs with morphology, histology, powder characteristics; isolation and detection of phyto constituents; isolation of phyto constituents by chromatography techniques; analysis of crude drugs by chemical tests. The traditional as well as modern methods used for identification of crude drugs, isolation methods of phyto constituents and their detection of all the experiments are included in this manual. This manual is designed for 'outcome-based education' and each experiment is arranged in a uniform way such as practical significance, practical outcomes (PrOs) and its mapping with courseoutcomes, theory, resources used, procedure, precautions, observations, result, conclusion, references, and synopsis questions. Each experiment offers an opportunity to perform practical work, allowing students to gain proficiency in effectively managing equipment, handling glassware, chemicals and staining agents/ reagents, and writing conclusion. In addition, questions are provided at the end of the experiments to enhance students' knowledge, which will be beneficial for them as they pursue higher studies. During the laboratory period you will have to multitask, while you are doing experiment. It is essential to document properly what you do and what you observe while doing the practical. Always plan your work ahead and think about what you are doing, why you are doing it, what is happening and what you can conclude from your experiment. We acknowledge the help and co-operation extended by various persons in bringing out this manual. We are highly indebted to the authors of various books and articles mentioned in the reference which became a major source of information for writing this manual. We also thank the publishers, designers and printers who graciously worked hard to publish this manual in time. We hope that this manual will assist students in understanding concepts, principles, and performing procedures. We wish you all the best!"

Serving as a complete guide to the subject, this volume is made up of four chapters supported by 31 experiments. The manual allows students and faculty to record their observations and results, as well as to draw diagrams.

Medicinal Chemistry Laboratory Manual: Investigations in Biological and Pharmaceutical Chemistry responds to a critical classroom need for material for directed laboratory investigations in biological and pharmaceutical chemistry. This manual supplies 55 experiments in 18 major subject areas, including carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins in biochemistry; tannins, balsams, and alkaloids in natural products areas; and analgesics, steroids, and anesthetics in pharmaceutical chemistry.

Laboratory experience equips students with techniques that are necessary for professional practice. Advanced Organic Synthesis: A Laboratory Manual focuses on a mechanistic background of key reactions in organic chemistry, gives insight into well-established trends, and introduces new developments in the field.The book features experiments performe

Covering the whole range of molecular biology techniques - genetic engineering as well as cytogenetics of plants -, each chapter begins with an introduction to the basic approach. followed by detailed methods with easy-to-follow protocols and comprehensive troubleshooting. The first part introduces basic molecular methodology such as DNA extraction, blotting, production of libraries and RNA cloning, while the second part describes analytical approaches, in particular RAPD and RFLP. The manual concludes with a variety of gene transfer techniques and both molecular and cytological analysis. As such, this will be of great use to both the first-timer and the experienced scientist.
