    Abstract: In the present study, we evaluated the pharmacological and toxicological effects of Teucrium stocksianum. The crude extract of T. stocksianum (Ts.Cr) and its subsequent organic fractions: n-hexane (Ts.Hex), chloroform (Ts.CHCl 3 ) and ethyl acetate (Ts.EtAc) exhibited 1,1-diphenyl,2-picrylhydrazyl free radical scavenging activity with different potencies. Ts.EtAc was found to be most potent. Ts.Cr, Ts.Hex, Ts.CHCl 3 and Ts.EtAc showed significant bactericidal activity against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella typhi, Shigella flexneri and Bacillus subtilis at their extent. Ts.Cr, Ts.Hex, Ts.CHCl 3 and Ts.EtAc displayed fungicidal action against Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus fumigatus and Fusarium solani at various minimum inhibitory concentrations. Ts.Cr and Ts.EtAc exhibited marked inhibition of Leishmania tropica growth, observed after 48 and 96 hrs of treatment. These data indicate that the T. stocksianum methanolic extract and its resultant fractions possess antioxidant, antibacterial, antifungal and antileishmanial activities. Thus, the present research unearths the scientific base for T. stocksianum medicinal application as antioxidant and antimicrobial agents.

    Abstract: This study investigates the impact of IT capabilities on firm innovation performance. Further, it examines the mediating role of supply chain agility (SCA) as well as the moderating effect of innovation orientation (IO). The proposed conceptual model draws on resource-based view (RBV) theory. Dataset of 335 responses was analysed with process MACRO using SPSS 24.0 and AMOS. The findings show that IT capabilities positively affect firm innovation performance and SCA mediates the relationship of IT capabilities and firm innovative performance. Finally, results also confirm the moderating effect of IO between the IT capabilities and SCA.

    Abstract: In today’s dynamic market environment, information technology (IT) enables firms to obtain knowledge they need to achieve superior performance. To this end, the present study explores the effects of IT, absorptive capacity (ACAP), and dynamic capabilities (DCs) on firm performance (FP) by employing empirical research design. In addition, the study focuses on the DCs perspective and ACAP as a firm knowledge-based view focusing on those firms where technology involved in either a particular unit of the firm or as a whole in operational processes. The data (total 241) was analyzed through AMOS, a mathematical analysis methodology focused on structural equation modeling (SEM). Moreover, through Sobel test we further verify the indirect impact of IT on FP.

    Abstract: The objective of this work is to fabricate hydrogel films which are biodegradable and also fit for packaging applications. The hydrogel films were prepared by the reaction of polyvinyl alcohol and gelatin with and without 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTEOS) cross-linker. The hydrogel films were then characterized by FTIR spectroscopy, degree of swelling, TGA, SEM analysis and mechanical testing. The FTIR spectra of the hydrogel films confirmed the presence of both polymers and hydrogen bonding between them. TGA analysis confirmed the increase in thermal stability with the increase of cross-linker amount. SEM analysis confirmed the increase in uniformity of structure with the increase of cross-linker amount. The increase in cross-linker amount resulted in decrease of degree of swelling and increase of tensile strength. The biodegradability of hydrogel films was evaluated by performing soil burial test and found to be decreased with the increase of cross-linker amount. In order to balance the tensile strength and biodegradability, the optimum amount of cross-linker was determined which resulted in the formation of the best performing film. Finally, our best performing film was compared with other hydrogel films reported in the literature. Hence, the hydrogel films cross-linked with APTEOS are biodegradable, having high tensile strength and suitable for packaging purpose.
