Chondrosarcoma usually arises in the pelvis, ribs or long bones but rarely may occur in the nasal septum. The nasal septum chondrosarcoma may extend to skull base, paranasal sinuses or orbit which is usually observed during recurrence. Radiological examination and histopathology plays an important role for its diagnosis and to assess the grade and extension of the tumor. Moreover, the morphological differentiation of low grade chondrosarcoma from chondroma and other tumors like metastatic renal cell carcinoma, chordoma may pose diagnostic challenge on histopathology. It is therefore essential to vigilantly examine the histopathological sections for subtle features for definite diagnosis of chondrosarcoma. The present case is therefore being reported of rare tumor of low grade chondrosarcoma of nasal septum in young female extending to skull base at initial presentation. The case also highlights the importance of close histomorphological examination of low grade chondrosarcoma to avoid diagnostic pitfalls and the importance of repeat biopsy if clinico-radiological suspicion is strong and thus avoiding further complications.

Production and supply of pathogen and toxic chemical free water is the preliminary aim of water treatment. The natural killing property of bacteriophages makes them the most prominent tool in eliminating unwanted bacteria, making them ideal candidate in water treatment research. In this study phage formulations against multidrug resistant E. coli KP005067 were fabricated by immobilizing them in broth, activated charcoal and alginate beads. The cross section of the phage formulation was analysed using Confocal Raman Microscope and the disinfection study was carried out in batch and packed bed reactor. The phage formulations remained stable for almost 4-8 and 3-5 months at 4oC and 30oC respectively. The batch reduction study using phage connoted the order of host reduction as phage-charcoal > phagebroth > phage-bead. Further more, the disinfection study using packed bed reactor showed 100 and 97% host reduction using phage-charcoal and phage-bead respectively. At the same time, there was concomitant increase in the phage population in the packed bed-reactor indicating that the phage formulations are highly potent in killing bacterial pathogen in water.

Methods: Preliminary phytochemical analysis, the DPPH radical scavenging and cytotoxicity screening were carried out in methanol extracts of the six macroalgae as per standard methods with few modifications. Results: Analysis revealed that secondary metabolites with higher medicinal activities such as saponin, cumarin, flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins triterpens and steroids were present. Anthraquinones, and cyanogenic glycosides were absent in all algal extracts. Most of samples were inactive in DPPH radical scavenging and has no cytotoxic effects. Conclusion: The study demonstrated clearly that macroalgae of the Red Sea can be significant sources of important compounds which may be used in formulation of drugs by the pharmaceutical industries.

Polymerization methods of acrylic resins have considerable effect on physical and mechanical properties like release monomer and porosity. The aim of this study was to investigate the release of residual monomer and porosity for acrylic denture base materials processed by different polymerization methods (heat and pour cured). Ten specimens were fabricated for each test. For release monomer test the samples were analyzed using gas chromatography with a flame ionization detector and for porosity test it was calculated by measurement of the specimen weight before its immersion in water and 7 days following immersion in water. Student t- test was performed to study the differences between the mean ratio of release monomer and porosity in heat-cured and pour-cured acrylic resin. The statistical analysis indicated highly significant differences in the mean rate of release monomer and porosity between pour-cured and heat-cured acrylic resin (P<0.001). As a conclusion, pour-cured acrylic processing method was significantly higher than heat-cured one in both residual monomer content and porosity.

Anticholinesterases are drugs that inhibit acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE). Clinical uses of anticholinesterases include: (a) treatment of myasthenia gravis, (b) reversal of the action of non-depolarizing neuromuscular-blocking drugs used during surgical operations, (c) treatment of glaucoma and management of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Studies have reported several medicinal properties of V. amygdalina and M. fragrans. However the anticholinesterse inhibitory actions (beneficial in neurodegenerative disorders) of these herbs have not been studied, hence the need for the present study. The leaves of V. amygdalina and seeds of M. fragrans were extracted in water and ethanol using cold extraction. The cholinesterase inhibitory assay of the extracts was done in five test tubes: the first three contained the extracts, the fourth test tube contained neostigmine, while the fifth contained blank (control). All the test tubes (control and tests) were incubated tor 20 mins at room temperature after addition of acetylcholinesterse and acetylthiocholine. Thereafter, Ellman’s spectrophotometric method was used to determine the absorbance at 412 nm wavelength. The phytochemical screening revealed the presence of flavonoids, phenolics and glycosides. Aqueous and ethanolic extracts of the leaves of V. amygdalina had mean change in absorbance of 0.032±0.00 and 0.023±0.01 (64 and 74% AChE inhibition respectively), while aqueous seed extract of M. fragrans had 0.015±0.01 (83% AChE inhibition). There were statistically significant differences (p = 0.01) in the mean change in absorbance per minute in the various test groups. Extracts of leaves of V. amygdalina and seeds of M. fragrans showed significant in vitro acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activities at concentrations used.

Introduction: Cervical cancer is the second commonest malignancy among women worldwide and causing high mortality with about 500,000 new cases and 250,000 deaths each year. The mortality rate can be reduced by creating awareness among women on regular or earlier screening for precancerous lesion and by administration of human papilloma virus vaccine to adolescent girls. Hence a study conducted to assess the knowledge on cervical cancer among women, to determine the effectiveness on awareness programme and to associate between selected demographic variables and knowledge of cervical cancer. Methods: Pre-experimental research design was selected. Totally 100 women were selected by random sampling technique in health centres. After assessing the pre-test knowledge, the awareness was created to them and that was followed by post-test. The collected data was analysed by descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: The demographic data shows that out of 100 women, 42(42%) women were at the age group of 30 to 40 years, 84(84%) women were unemployed, 8(8%) women in low income group, 34(34%) women attained early menarche, 32(32%) women had early marriage, 44(44%) women having 3 and more children and 48(48%) women were received health information from family members. The overall pre-test adequate knowledge was 13% and post-test was 74%. There was no significant association between selected demographic variables and knowledge of cervical cancer. Conclusion: Most of the women had inadequate knowledge about cervical cancer and its prevention. After awareness programme, the knowledge score was improved. Hence the health educations highly needed to create awareness among women.
