Antioxidant and Antibacterial Activity of Ludwigia octovalvis on Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Some Pathogenic Bacteria
Ludwigia octovalvis (Jacq.) P. H. Raven (Family: Onagraceae) is traditionally used to treat skin diseases, diarrhea and flatulence. This study assayed twelve extracts of L. octovalvis for their total phenolic content (TPC), antioxidant and antibacterial activity. The highest TPC at 264.76 ± 0.23 GAE mg/g dry weight and antioxidant activity (evaluated by 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl and ferric...
متن کاملComplete Plastome Sequence of Ludwigia octovalvis (Onagraceae), a Globally Distributed Wetland Plant
Here, we present the first plastome of Ludwigia octovalvis (Onagraceae, Myrtales) as well as the first plastome in the subfamily Ludwigioideae. This genome is notable for its contracted inverted repeat regions and an expanded small single-copy region compared to other species in the orders Myrtales and Geraniales.
متن کاملPhytoremediation for Arsenic Contamination: Arsenate Reductase Phytoremediation for Arsenic Contamination: Arsenate Reductase
Arsenic is a toxic pollutant present in the environment that causes serious health issues. Phytoremediation is one potential solution to mitigate arsenic contamination in either soil or water. Two main forms of arsenic exist in the environment, arsenite, [As(III)], and arsenate, [As(V)]. In plant mechanisms, arsenate reductase reduces arsenate to arsenite with the help of thioredoxins or glutar...
متن کاملAquatic arsenic: phytoremediation using floating macrophytes.
Phytoremediation, a plant based green technology, has received increasing attention after the discovery of hyperaccumulating plants which are able to accumulate, translocate, and concentrate high amount of certain toxic elements in their above-ground/harvestable parts. Phytoremediation includes several processes namely, phytoextraction, phytodegradation, rhizofiltration, phytostabilization and ...
متن کاملGraphene oxide amplifies the phytotoxicity of arsenic in wheat
Graphene oxide (GO) is widely used in various fields and is considered to be relatively biocompatible. Herein, "indirect" nanotoxicity is first defined as toxic amplification of toxicants or pollutants by nanomaterials. This work revealed that GO greatly amplifies the phytotoxicity of arsenic (As), a widespread contaminant, in wheat, for example, causing a decrease in biomass and root numbers a...
