M. longifolia's natural habitat spans from the southernmost tip of the Konkan peninsula down to the westernmost tip of the Western Ghats. Previous studies suggests that syrup of Madhuca longifolia (mahua) leaves & flower extract has not been formulated yet. Lithiasis is the presence of calculi within the urinary tract. So, present study is focused on the formulation and estimation of Madhuca longifolia syrup for urolithiasis activity. The fresh leaves and flower of Madhuca longifolia were collected from the lucknow region in Uttar Pradesh. It was washed, dried under shade, and sieved for making dust-free and kept at room temperature or shade. Chemicals i.e., propylene glycol, glycerin, sucrose, sorbitol, sodium saccharin, methylparaben, and propylparaben were purchased from the local chemical supplier. The leaves and powder of Madhuca longifolia were weighed and extracted through Soxhlet process using methanol and water, separately. The syrup was formulated by adding mahua extract and different excipients. The parameters including organoleptic features, flavonoid estimation, pH determination, density, viscosity, solubility and stability. In results, both the formulation was observed as optimized in terms of their organoleptic features- greenish colour, pH (6.0), characteristic odour with bitter taste. Appearances were heterogenous. The % yield was 9.8% and 8.2% in methanolic flower extract and aqueous flower extract, respectively. It concludes that both formulation of mahua syrup consisting leaves and flowers have shown a remarkable organoleptic characteristic as well as density, solubility and stability. It also demonstrated the presence flavonoids that might be important constituent for the urolithiasis potential and other pharmacological effects of mahua. It may also be confirmed that its syrup production at bulk level would be reasonable in terms of cost. It will improve the use of herbal syrup of Madhuca longifolia with reduced side effects.

“…A crucial component of agriculture, livestock contributes to the growth and improvement of Bangladesh's agricultural economy in a multitude of ways, involving the provision of food, revenue, savings, nourishment, social, cultural, manure, transport and draught power purposes (Hossain et al, 2016;Islam et al, 2022a;Kamal et al, 2022). The primary source of protein in developing nations like Bangladesh is meat (Haque et al, 2017;Sarker et al, 2021).…”

The study was conducted to determine how the proximate composition, amino acid and fatty acid profiles of beef of indigenous cattle are affected by dental age. This experiment was conducted with five (5) treatments (T1, T2, T3, T4, and T5) where T1 = 0 Permanent incisors, T2 = 2 Permanent incisors, T3 = 4 Permanent incisors, T4 = 6 Permanent incisors, T5 = 8 Permanent incisors having ten (10) replications. This study has shown that the highest CP was 84.91% having the T5 while the lowest figure was 72.94% in T4. T1 had the lowest 3.34% EE content whereas T5 had the highest 4.15%. Essential amino acids (g/100g of meat) were highest at 41.51 in T5 and lowest at 37.79 in T1. The lowest total saturated fatty acid (SFA) in Longissimus dorsi was 46.25% in T5 and the highest was 51.89% in T1. The total monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA) proportion of 66.87% in T2 was the highest and T5 had the lowest proportion of 52.07%. The lowest total polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) was 1.52% in T1 and the highest was at 7.49% in T5. In conclusion, CP, EE, essential amino acid, and polyunsaturated (PUFA) fatty acid proportion increased with the advancement of dental age maturity and conversely, saturated fatty acid (SFA) proportion was decreased. Therefore, this research will play a vital role to characterize accurately in terms of its nutritional quality to be aware of the selection of indigenous beef in their daily diet according to dental age.

“…Livestock is a vital part of agricultural economy in Bangladesh, serving a variety of purposes including the provision of food, nourishment, revenue, savings, social, and cultural needs. (Rahman et al, 1999;Hossain et al, 2016;Kamal et al, 2019Kamal et al, , 2020Kamal et al, , 2022aKamal et al, & 2022bHasan et al, 2021Hasan et al, & 2022Islam et al, 2022). The rural poor, notably landless, destitute, and divorced women, are turning to the beef fattening industry as a source of employment and income (Islam et al, 2022).…”

The objective of this study was to examine the effect of age on the grading of carcass of indigenous cattle. This experiment was conducted with five (5) treatments (T1 , T2 , T3 , T4 and T5 ) where T1 = 0 Permanent incisor, T2 = 2 Permanent incisors, T3 = 4 Permanent incisors, T4 = 6 Permanent incisors, T5 = 8 Permanent incisors having ten (10) replications. From this study, the mean rib eye muscle area (REA) and the mean rib fat thickness was 43.26, 49.93, 61.38, 70.43, 69.24 cm2 and 0.61, 0.68, 0.66, 1.07 and 0.97 cm with T1 , T2 , T3, T4 and T5 , respectively. The mean retail cut percentage of our indigenous beef cattle was 52.36, 52.27, 53.32, 52.69 and 52.58 with T1 , T2 , T3, T4 and T5 dental age groups, respectively. It also reveals that the overall maturity (on the basis of skeletal maturity and lean maturity) of indigenous beef cattle was A80 , B 90 , C 90, D80 and E 80 withT1 , T2 , T3, T4 and T5 dental age groups, respectively. Indigenous cattle population was fallen in the marbling sub groups of Slight91 , Small90, Small59, Modest57 and Moderate40 with T1 , T2 , T3, T4 and T5 dental age groups, respectively. With the combination of overall maturity and marbling score, indigenous cattle for beef production possess in the quality grade of Select, Choice, Commercial, Utility and Utility with respect to T1 , T2 , T3, T4 and T5 dental age groups. Indigenous cattle did not satisfy the criteria for the highest quality grade e.g., Prime to Standard and the lowest quality grade e.g. Cutter to Canner. In conclusion, dental age maturity had a highly significant (p<0.001) effect on average skeletal maturity, marbling score of the carcass and also had a significant (p<0.01) effect on rib fat thickness as well as on rib eye muscle area (REA) irrespective of all age group of indigenous beef carcass in Bangladesh. This research will play a vital role in the path toward the development of Bangladeshi beef standards and will be helpful to grade indigenous beef cattle at butcher or commercial beef industries level.
