Shorttitle: Lactic Fermentation of Sweet Potato Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) is an important root crop grown all over the world. Sweet potato roots, being rich in starch, minerals, vitamins and anti- oxidants like phenolics, -carotene or anthocyanin, is suitable for lactic acid fermentation. Roots of sweet potato were fermented to prepare three novel food products, i.e. lacto- pickle, lacto- juice and curd. Lacto-pickles were prepared by fermenting the cut and blanched roots with Lactobacillus plantarum MTCC 1407. Sweet potato roots were grated and treated with 0.05% of commercial pectinase enzyme (Pectinex®, Novoenzyme) in order to extract the juice. The extracted juice was fermented with L. plantarum for 48h to make lacto-juice. Sweet potato curd was prepared by co- fermenting -carotene or anthocyanin- rich sweet potato puree and cow milk with curd starter culture. In the concluding study, production, purification and characterization of - amylase by L. plantarum has been investigated. ····· 10361101360

An ethnobotanical survey was undertaken to collect information from traditional healers on the use of medicinal plants in the Western Ghats, Tamilnadu during 2003 to 2007. The investigation revealed that, the traditional healers used 75 species of plants distributed in 71 genera belonging to 40 families to treat various diseases. The documented medicinal plants were mostly used to cure skin disorders, poison bites, stomach ache, nervous disorders, diabetes, common cold, cancer, ulcers and wounds. Among the plants, 20 frequently used plants were selected and various studies such as Pharmacognostical, Antimicrobial and Free radical scavenging studies were performed to prove their medicinal potential. The traditional healers are dwindling in number and there is a potential danger of traditional knowledge disappearing soon, as the younger generation is not intensely interested to further this tradition. This study supports claims that the Malasar posses a rich traditional aboriginal knowledge of medicinal plants and that many aboriginals and mainstream people utilize medicinal plants of the Ayyasamy hills, situated in the Western Ghats between Tamilnadu Kerala state borders. ····· 10361100699

Cyanotoxins pose great risk to human health, livestock, aquatic flora and fauna. The green mat formed on water by the bloom forming cyanobacteria is ubiquitous, but not everyone knows the ground reality behind these blooms. There is wide range of toxins secreted by bloom forming cyanobacteria. The cyanobacterial toxins are hepatotoxic, neurotoxic, dermatotoxic and some toxins have significant potential for stimulating tumour growth. These harmful toxins are stored in the cells and soon are released in water after the cells rupture. This is an area where our knowledge is so limited and so much remains to be explored. This book gives insight of the various aspects associated with cyanotoxins. Environmental pollution stimulates the formation of harmful algal blooms resulting in production of toxic cyanotoxins, so it needs to be controlled. Awareness among people is to be aroused regarding the fatal effects of these cyanotoxins. Understanding cyanotoxins and proper management of water resources will result in safe water sources for consumption as well as recreation. ····· 10361100635
