INTRODUCTION In the recent advancement of targeted therapeutics that was coupled with new approaches in target identification have accelerated the need to design small compounds with drug like properties [1]. Quinoxaline is well known for its broad coverage in the field of medicine as well as for its application in the pharmaceuticals as they have shown wide range of biological properties such as antimicrobial [2], antibacterial [3], antitubercular [2, 4], antiprotozoal [5] , anti-candida [2, 6]…
disorders characterized by metabolic pathway abnormalities. One such disorder is Maple Syrup Urine Disease (MSUD) otherwise known as Branched-chain Ketoaciduria, a dangerous condition in which over saturation of amino acids in the blood can lead to toxicity progressing to encephalopathy, neurodegeneration, coma or respiratory failure (Haldeman-Englert, 2015). MSUD results from a malfunction of the branched-chain alpha-ketoacid dehydrogenase complex (BCKD) (Kniffin, 2013). This complex produces…
overtake them. Per Foster’s conceptions, Tan’s constant undertones of fearful destruction serve to instruct the reader on how to enter the calamitous world of the Young and Gu families, where superstition, misunderstood maternal love, and multilayered toxicity prevail.

CRITICAL REVIEW ON TREATMENT AND PREVETION OF HEPATIC CIRRHOSIS AND FIBROSIS INTRODUCTION Liver cirrhosis is a common outcome in clinical progressions of all chronic liver diseases, distinguished by substitution of tissues of the liver by fibrous (scar) tissues. Regenerative nodules - lumps that appear in a bid to repair the damaged tissues – also replace the liver tissues, leading to an alteration of the liver structure to into structurally abnormal nodules. Liver fibrosis is as a resultant…

Adipic acid is mainly use as monomer in manufacture Nylon 6/6 fiber, plasticizer, grease, polyurethane etc. There are several countries in the world that manufacturing the adipic acid. But there also countries that just is a supplier for this adipic acid to any factory that need adipic acid in their countries. The main countries that produce adipic acid are United State of America and also China. Almost ninety percent of adipic acid manufactured in United State of America is used to produce…
