Microemulsions of both blank and with plant extract were formulated by using propylene glycol and Tween 80 as non-ionic surfactant with isopropyl myristate oil and water. The chemical compositions of Tween 80 surfactant strongly affect the stability study of formulation. Surfactant-cosurfactant mixture in ratio of 2:1 (Smix) along with isopropyl myristate (oil) was selected and phase diagrams were constructed. The n-hexane extract of Red Carica papaya pulp was prepared and analyzed lycopene by UV-visible spectrophotometric method at 470 nm. The percentage of lycopene was measured by calibration curve. The physico-chemical stability of microemolsions blank and plant extract were evaluated regarding their particle size, zeta potential, conductivity, stability, viscosity, scanning electron microscopy, refractory index (RI) and pH. This study established that a stable microemulsion containing Carica papaya fruit extract was dependent upon the contents of S/C ratio, oil and water in formulations. Physicochemically and physically extract containing microemulsion with 2:1 was found to be stable therefore it can be used for topical application to deliver natural antioxidant.

“…The current investigation observed a notable reduction in the protein content of the muscle, stomach, and intestine of fish that were exposed to the 96-hour LC 50 concentration of Chlorpyrifos for a duration of four days, when compared to the protein content of fish in the control group. Singh et al (2010), Martin et al (2008), Waghmare and Wani (2014), Patil and David (2009), and Ramesh and Saravanan (2008) have reported a decrease in protein content in Colisa fasciatus when exposed to cypermethrin, Catla catla when exposed to mercury chloride, Labeo rohita when exposed to polo and malathion, and Cyprinis carpio when exposed to chlorpyrifos. According to Umminger (1977), chlorpyrifos induces hyperactivity as a response to stress, hence meeting the increased energy requirement.…”

Chlorpyrifos is classified as an organophosphorus pesticide that exhibits properties of being a broad-spectrum insecticide, acaricide, and nematicide. It is characterized by its ability to degrade quickly and its non-persistent nature. The current investigation involved the determination of the LC50value of chlorpyrifos onA. testudineus. The computed LC50values were found to be 11.59, 8.82, 6.30, and 3.82 ppm for exposure durations of 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours, respectively. The levels of protein and glycogen in the stomach, gut, and muscle of A. testudineus, which were subjected to a concentration of 3.82 ppm (LC5096 hours) chlorpyrifos for a duration of 96 hours, exhibited a notable reduction when compared to the control group. The stomach sections of A. testudineus, when subjected to a concentration of 3.82 ppm chlorpyrifos for a duration of 96 hours, exhibited degeneration of the mucosa layer and necrosis of the mucosa epithelium. The histopathological examination of the intestine revealed several notable findings, including the presence of a disintegrating serosa, a significantly enlarged muscularis layer, and observable damage to both the circular muscle layer and submucosa. Additionally, evidence of necrosis was observed within the mucosa layer. The muscle tissue exhibited degeneration inside the muscle bundles, characterized by the presence of discrete regions of necrosis and the development of vacuoles within the muscle bundles. The results of this study demonstrate that chlorpyrifos exhibits a significant level of toxicity towards A. testudineus, and it is important to note that the absence of mortality does not guarantee the maintenance of physiological well-being in this particular fish species.
