ABSTRACT
Chemicals/compounds interact with biologically significant molecules such as enzymes, proteins, receptors, nucleic acids etc. due to the presence of various reactive groups. These interactions may result in physiological changes and are also responsible for a compound to be pharmacologically/ therapeutically active. Chalcones are known to possess significant therapeutic activities such as antiinflammatory, analgesic, antimicrobial, antioxidant, anticancer, antimalarial, antiviral, antitubercular, etc. In the present work we have evaluated the effect of chalcones on the activity of acid phosphatase of two different sources.
