Biopesticides are a vital component of sustainable agriculture, offering a safer alternative to synthetic pesticides. This review provides an overview of recent advances in biopesticides, including their types, efficacy, and environmental impact. Microbial, plant-based, and biochemical biopesticides have shown promising results in controlling pests and diseases. While efficacy is comparable to synthetic pesticides, biopesticides have a more favorable environmental profile, with reduced toxicity to non-target organisms and biodegradability. However, challenges persist in registration, regulation, and public acceptance. Future directions include genetic engineering, nanotechnology, and integrated pest management strategies. This review highlights the potential of biopesticides in reducing the environmental footprint of agriculture and ensuring food security.

Herbal remedies have been used for centuries to treat various ailments. Natural products, derived from plants, animals, and microorganisms, have been used for centuries as a source of medicinal compounds in traditional and modern herbal remedies. Understanding the chemical properties and mechanisms of action of these remedies is crucial for their effective and safe application in managing chronic diseases. This review explores the effectiveness of herbal remedies in managing chronic diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and autoimmune disorders. It emphasizes the need for a balanced approach combining herbal and conventional medicine, reducing healthcare costs and improving patient outcomes. The review includes 10 studies investigating the efficacy of herbal remedies in managing chronic diseases in Moringa and Ginger. Moringa, a valuable plant in traditional and modern medicine, has diverse therapeutic effects, making it beneficial for managing chronic diseases. Ginger, a powerful herbal remedy with bioactive compounds like gingerols, shogaols, zingerone, and paradols, is also considered a powerful natural treatment due to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antiemetic, and anticancer activities. Understanding the chemical properties and mechanisms of action of these remedies can help develop effective treatments for chronic diseases and enhance their integration into modern medicine.

Heavy metal contamination poses a significant threat to plant growth and development, leading to reduced crop yields, impaired ecosystem functioning, and potential human health risks. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the phytotoxic effects of heavy metals on plant species, highlighting the mechanisms of uptake, transport, and accumulation. We explore the devastating impacts on plant morphology, physiology, and biochemistry, including altered root architecture, reduced photosynthesis, and impaired reproductive development. This review highlights the urgent need for effective remediation approaches to mitigate the phytotoxic effects of heavy metals and ensure sustainable ecosystem functioning. We identify knowledge gaps and future research directions, emphasizing the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration to address this critical environmental issue.

Challenges and Opportunities in Repurposing Natural Products for the Treatment of Neglected Trophical Diseases: A Review of Scaffold Optimization Strategies Abubakar, Musa Yahaya; Mathew, Twan Sale; Shamsuddeen, Ruslan; Abdullahi, Saeed; Bilyamin, Ansar; Chinedu, Emmanuel Kinsley

Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs) are serious health issues that affect the entire world, especially in low-income tropical and subtropical areas, yet they do not get enough facilities. Natural items have great potential for treating NTD because of their varied chemical scaffolds. Nevertheless, there are a number of difficulties in optimizing these scaffolds for drug development. Attempts at synthesis and modification are complicated by the structural complexity of natural compounds. Economic and regulatory hurdles also obstruct advancement. Despite these difficulties, there are plenty of chances. Natural products are a significant source of structural variety that makes them ideal for drug discovery. developments in biotechnology and synthetic biology. Sustainable production is improved via biotechnology. Targeted optimization is made easier by advances in computer power and molecular understanding. Research collaborations can expedite the process of discovery and development. Finding efficient scaffolds can be done quickly by looking for NTD activity in already-existing natural product libraries. By tackling these issues scientifically and cooperatively, we can develop novel, practical, and affordable treatments for non-traumatic disabilities (NTDs), which will eventually improve the health of impacted communities.

The science of chemistry has been greatly impacted by environmental degradation, which has led to important breakthroughs and changed educational perspectives. This review highlights the role of chemists in tackling global environmental concerns by examining the diverse effects of environmental contamination on the study of chemistry. Green chemistry principles, which attempt to design safer chemicals and processes that limit waste and lessen detrimental environmental impacts, have been motivated by pollution. Environmental chemistry, which focuses on the behavior, consequences, and mitigation of pollutants, has emerged as a crucial sub-discipline as a result of the pressing need to address pollution. In addition, pollution has made it necessary to integrate interdisciplinary techniques, bringing together the fields of chemistry, biology, environmental science, and engineering to provide novel ways to pollution treatment and control. Educational curricula have evolved to incorporate these trends, emphasizing sustainable practices and the environmental implications of chemical processes. This review highlights how the growing awareness of environmental pollution continues to drive innovation and shape the future of chemical education and research, underscoring the importance of chemists in developing sustainable solutions to protect our planet.

Heavy metals are essential element that are very important to the soil, their accumulation beyond the permissible limit causes a health risk as it may affect the soil and plants. Mining activities can generate large quantities of heavy metals laden waste which are released in an uncontrolled manner, causing widespread contamination of the ecosystem. Heavy metals are important for normal life psychological process and also provide enormous social and economic benefit to nations, the lung time adverse effect on the environment and public health cannot be overlooked This study investigates the presence of lead and cadmium metals hand dug well around gold mining areas of Rimi Local Government, Kano State. The metals determined were lead and chromium, and the permissible limit for lead in water is 0.1mg/L according to (WHO, 2008). By consideration with the WHO (2008) acceptable limit all the ten-hand dug well water in Rimi are beyond the permissible limit. The highest lead concentrations in water lead to several disease to body organs such as brain, kidney gastrointestinal tracts and central nervous system.
