The in vitro antioxidant activity of curcumin/capsaicin/combined curcumin and capsaicin was evaluated by employing various chemical and biochemical methods. The chemical methods involved reducing power and radical scavenging assays, while biochemical assays employed H2O2induced oxidative stress in erythrocytes, hemoglobin and DNA. Curcumin/capsaicin have shown 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), NO and OH radical scavenging property, whilst combined curcumin & capsaicin has shown additive antioxidant property. Further in biochemical assays, curcumin/capsaicin has shown protective activity against H2O2 induced oxidative stress in erythrocytes, hemoglobin and DNA. Conversely, combined curcumin & capsaicin yet again has shown additive property against H2O2 induced erythrocytes and DNA oxidation, while in hemoglobin assay it has become synergistic. The present study revealed additive as well as synergistic efficacy of combined curcumin and capsaicin.

In this paper, we present basic properties, covering invariants, connectivity and characterization of graphs whose transformation graph G+−+ are eulerian.

In this paper, we introduce the concept of strongly harmonic graphs and discuss some properties and results of strongly harmonic graphs. We also estimate the bounds for the maximum number of edges in a strongly harmonic graph of order n.
