Medicinal Chemistry | MUIT Lucknow

  The study of  medicinal Chemistry  includes synthesizing and developing new chemical moieties with findings of their properties, i.e., physical, chemical, and pharmacological properties pointing out their possible therapeutic applications. This chemistry involves studying current moieties and associated drugs and their co-relation with pharmacological action with quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR).  Pharmaceutical Chemistry  also deals with the check of drug quality and their validation for the rationale of pharmaceutical products. Pharmaceutical chemistry  involves the development, innovation, drawing, recognition of pharmacologically active moieties, and also the study of their ADME (absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion) properties. Medicinal chemistry  is an interdisciplinary area by definition, and practitioners must have a strong background in organic chemistry, as well as a thorough understanding of biology ideas linked to cellular drug targets.

Defining Humanities may a difficult task; however, it can be said in a few words that it is an academic discipline which deals with the study of the ‘Human Condition’, utilizing methodologies that are usually analytical, critical or speculative. The wide range of subjects that come under the umbrella term of Humanities range from anthropology, History, Geography, Political Science, Sociology, Psychology, English, Hindi and Education. Thus, it is a broad category encompassing several disciplines that cannot be studied under the natural sciences.  There are many streams in humanities and art where you can take admissions.  Bachelor of Arts:  Bachelor of Arts or BA is an undergraduate program. It comes under the discipline of Humanities & Arts. BA is a 3 years program divided into six semesters. The School offers two programs under the Bachelor of Arts , one BA (Pass) and another BA (Honours). Master of Arts: Master of Arts (MA) is a post-graduation level course which is of two year

Water Resources - MUIT Lucknow

  Water bodies are the main driving forces of the evolution of human civilization. In ancient times, great human civilizations were established near the rivers of Nile, Indus, Tigris-Euphrates, and Yellow. The main reason for the development of human civilization near water bodies was the fulfillment of the water requirements of society, such as drinking, agriculture, and sanitation. The progress of human society entails an understanding of the hydrological nature of water bodies. In modern times, water requirements at the global level are high due to increase in population, rapid progress in urban areas, and rise of the industrial sector. Surface water and groundwater are the two water sources that satisfy the demand of the human race and the diverse ecosystems that depend on it. However, in recent times, both sources of water have been plagued by some serious problems due to large population growth, rapid industrial development, rigorous usage of chemicals, and excessive use of groun

Biotechnology Corner – Oyster Mushroom

  “β-Glucan from Crude Powder of Oyster Mushroom act as Nutraceutical supplement for patients suffering from Metabolic Disorder” Beta glucan is a compound found in mushrooms that has an important role in obesity. Not only mushroom, it is also found in many cereals, fungi. This work’s aim is beta- glucan characterization in mushrooms which has anti obesity properties by extraction method of beta-glucan using hot water extraction method and purification is done by chromatography. The crude polysaccharides (PSC) fractions contained beta- glucan (including chit oligosaccharides deriving from chitin hydrolysis), alpha- glucan and other PSCs (hetro-/proteo-ǥlucans) Depending on temperature, mushroom strain considered. The crude polysaccharide in this work was extracted from a mushroom sample by mixing with n-hexane.  After the repeated interval of using hot water, at their corresponding temperature the needy component was extracted, that is beta- glucan. After extraction of β–glucan, from cr
