L-Asparaginase is widely used enzyme for the treatment of ALL and thus its Production and activity plays a major role in its therapeutic use. Screening of the different sources for prominent L-Asn-ase production and high activity was done at different physiological conditions and high yield of the enzyme was obtained. The obtained enzyme from the two isolates are compared relatively on the basis of Km and Vmax values and one of them is being found to be more effective with low Km. This would serve as a good drug if tested and certified clinically restricting the ALL.

Now a days, yoghurt is gaining more popularity in developed countries. It is a fermented milk product obtained by lactic acid fermentation bacteria Streptococcus salivarius subsp. thermophilus and Lactobacillus delbruechii subsp. bulgaricus. For the study, the entire experiments were carried out in two phases. In phase - I, milk was standardized and prepared of yoghurt. In phase - II, to study the impact of feeding vegetarian yoghurt in rats were feeding and slaughtering for studies of internal organs and for bio-chemical analysis. The overall physico-chemical quality of vegetable yoghurts were better than the normal yoghurt. The levels of cholesterol and sugar decreased in the blood and gain in the weight increased when vegetable yoghurts were fed to the rats, without anti effects on the internal parts of the body.
