Objective: It is of interest to investigate the in vitro cyto toxicity effects of chloroformic extract of Novel polyherbal
formulation were studied. Materials and Methods: Cytotoxicity of the crude extract of polyherbal formulation was
evaluated on LLCMK2 monkey kidney epithelial cells and Cell viability was determined by using MTT assay. Results and
Discussion: Our results indicate that the non toxic nature of a poly herbal formulation of Novel polyherbal formulation on
control and experimental cell lines. Conclusion: The current mode of treatment for various diseases including cancer is
based on synthetic drugs. These drugs are effective but they show serious adverse effects and also alter the genetic and
metabolic activity of the patient. Furthermore, in vivo activity of the active compounds of a poly herbal formulation
Novel polyherbal formulation needs to be determined in animal models and human subjects, so as to determine their
efficacy in a metabolic environment.
Abstract:The representation of the practice of sati, the immolation of widows on their husbands' funeral pyre, has garnered interest for long from postcolonial and feminist discourses among others. While advocates of Western modernity perceive sati as a murderous ritual, the proponents of orthodox Hinduism, on the contrary, claim sati to be a courageous cult of "wifely devotion". In both bigoted beliefs, as poststructuralists observe, women largely appear as "mute objects". Amitav Ghosh's Sea of Poppies (2008) brilliantly sidelines the conundrum of polarizing representation of sati along the East-West axis and reflects instead the subjective experience of women as sati. The article examines how the rhetoric and ritual of sati in the novel enable marginalized women to acquire consciousness of their subjectivity in a colonized society. To this end, the paper analyzes deconstructive readings of sati, such as by Gayatri Spivak, and explores the way the novel uses religion as a ploy, which, instead of perpetrating violence, confers a subjective entity on the sati that can even subvert the constrictive norms of a colonized society.
The concept of disability has often been chained to that of animality as humanness is regarded as inherently marked by independence and rationality, the lack of which in animate beings is randomly associated with animality. The animality/humanity dualism, championed by anthropocentrism and ableism, not only affects the identity of humans with special needs by grouping them as Others but also disregards the agency of animals/nonhumans and nature by denying human dependency on and similarities with more-than-human entities. This research in its exploration of the connection between disability and ambiguous identity will focus upon the dynamics of the animality/humanity dualism in the context of an industrial disaster and ensuing disability as represented in Indra Sinha’s Animal’s People (2007). By understanding animality/humanity binary through the lens of local/global spatial distinction, the article scrutinises the way the animal/human ambiguous sense of place of the protagonist is mediated by his spatial relations. Building on both critical disability scholarship on animalisation of disabled humans and bioregional exploration of local/global spatial boundaries, the research, therefore, contends that the impact of environmental disasters on certain human groups creates a local (deformed humans as animals)/global (elite humans) spatial binary. The resolvability of such binaries, as the research further argues, is coterminous with developing a local bioregion, which is both connected to and dissociated from global/international places and is built upon humans–nonhumans/animals/nature interrelations that allow an agentic and inclusive human–nonhuman sense of belonging in the region.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
