      • Influence of Fragrances on Human Psychophysiological Activity: With Special Reference to Human Electroencephalographic Response

        Sowndhararajan, Kandhasamy,Kim, Songmun MDPI 2016 Scientia pharmaceutica Vol.84 No.4

        <P>The influence of fragrances such as perfumes and room fresheners on the psychophysiological activities of humans has been known for a long time, and its significance is gradually increasing in the medicinal and cosmetic industries. A fragrance consists of volatile chemicals with a molecular weight of less than 300 Da that humans perceive through the olfactory system. In humans, about 300 active olfactory receptor genes are devoted to detecting thousands of different fragrance molecules through a large family of olfactory receptors of a diverse protein sequence. The sense of smell plays an important role in the physiological effects of mood, stress, and working capacity. Electrophysiological studies have revealed that various fragrances affected spontaneous brain activities and cognitive functions, which are measured by an electroencephalograph (EEG). The EEG is a good temporal measure of responses in the central nervous system and it provides information about the physiological state of the brain both in health and disease. The EEG power spectrum is classified into different frequency bands such as delta (0.5–4 Hz), theta (4–8 Hz), alpha (8–13 Hz), beta (13–30 Hz) and gamma (30–50 Hz), and each band is correlated with different features of brain states. A quantitative EEG uses computer software to provide the topographic mapping of the brain activity in frontal, temporal, parietal and occipital brain regions. It is well known that decreases of alpha and beta activities and increases of delta and theta activities are associated with brain pathology and general cognitive decline. In the last few decades, many scientific studies were conducted to investigate the effect of inhalation of aroma on human brain functions. The studies have suggested a significant role for olfactory stimulation in the alteration of cognition, mood, and social behavior. This review aims to evaluate the available literature regarding the influence of fragrances on the psychophysiological activities of humans with special reference to EEG changes.</P>

      • Effect of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi and Trichoderma on Plant Health and Disease Suppression in Cotton

        Sowndhararajan Kandhasamy,Damodaran, Puthanveettil Naray 계명대학교 자연과학연구소 2015 Quantitative Bio-Science Vol.34 No.1

        The experiments were carried out to study the effect of AMF and biocontrol agents on improving plant health and suppressing plant diseases in cotton cultivar, MCU-5-VT. Inoculation of both AMF and Trichoderma reduced disease severity. Biochemical concentrations in plant tissues were significantly influenced by AMF and biocontrol agent inoculation. Higher biochemical concentrations with maximum accumulation of proteins, amino acids and phenols were observed in plants inoculated with the tested microorganisms. Defense related enzyme activity, peroxidase and phenyl alanine ammonia-lyase, increased with inoculation of both AMF and the pathogen. Generally enzyme activities reached their maximum at early stages of plant growth and were reduced subsequently. Soil microbial activity, measured in terms of soil respiration rate and dehydrogenase activity, increased significantly in inoculated soils.

        Kandhasamy Sowndhararajan,Perumal Siddhuraju,Sellamuthu Manian 한국식품과학회 2010 Food Science and Biotechnology Vol.19 No.2

        Antioxidant potential and total phenolics content of 70% acetone extracts of the raw and processed seeds of Bauhinia vahlii were evaluated. The extract of raw seeds contained higher levels of total phenolics (30.8 g/100g) and tannins (19.6 g/100 g) compared to dry heated and soaking followed by autoclaving seed extracts. Extracts were screened for antioxidant and free radical scavenging activities using various chemical and in vitro model systems. In all the models, except DPPH radical scavenging activity,the extract from raw seeds manifested the strongest antioxidant activity than that from processed seeds. In β-carotene/linoleic acid emulsion system and superoxide scavenging activity, the raw seed extract registered more activity when compared to the standards (butylated hydroxyanisole and α-tocopherol). Whereas, the extract from dry heated seed exhibited higher DPPH• scavenging activity (IC50 70.77 μg/mL) than the raw seeds (IC50 74.4μg/mL). This study has to some extent validated the antioxidant potential of the seeds of B. vahlii.
