In silico Study of the Binding Affinities of Acetylcholinesterase and Synthetically Viable Coumarin Analogs

Afnan, M; Rathnaweera, CN; Udawatte, CS (2018)

Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is a serine hydrolase that is responsible for the hydrolysis of acetylcholine-a neurotransmitter associated with the transmission of nerve impulses. The reversible inhibition of AChE can be ...
In vitro Antioxidant Activity and α- Amylase Inhibitory Activity of Methanolic Extract of Sri Lankan Marine Brown Algae Chnoospora minima (Hering 1841)

Gunathilaka, MDTL; Peiris, D; Ranasinghe, P; Samarakoon, KW; Elvitigala, DAS (2018)

Chnoospora minima (Herring) is a brown algae that belongs to Family Scytosiphonaceae. The current study investigated the total phenolic (TP), total flavonoid contents (TFC), antioxidants and anti-amylase activity of ...
In vitro Antioxidant, Anti-amylase, Anti-glycation Potentials and Mineral Elements of an Endangered Plant Syzygium caryophyllatum L. Alston (Sinhala: Heendan)

Wathsara, HPT; Godakumbura, PI; Weerathunga, HD; Ranasinghe, P (2018)

Syzygium caryophyllatum L. (Family: Myrtacea) Heendan in Sinhala is a red listed plant which is yet to be exploited as a source of functional food. Therefore, in the present study, antioxidant, antiglycation and ...
Microbial Cellulases: The Potential Application in Dye Removal from Denim

Jayasekara, SK; Karunarathna, GDIS; Abayasekara, CL; Kumara, KLW; Ratnayake, RR (2018)

Cellulases are enzymes that hydrolyze β-1, 4 linkages in cellulose. Their applications in industries such as paper, pulp, textile processing and food are gradually increasing. Especially, textile processing includes ...
Optimization of Carbon in Cathodes Made of Na2MnSiO4 to Enhance the Discharge Capacity of Sodium Ion Rechargeable Battery

Alahakoon, TN; Perera, VPS; Gamage, SSN; Manathunga, CH (2018)

In this research we have synthesized Na2MnSiO4 by solid state reaction of Na2CO3, MnCO3 and SiO2 and fabricated a sodium ion rechargeable cell using this material in the cathode. The elemental analysis of the synthesized ...
