Cardiac stimulant activity of Ocimum basilicum Linn. extracts
Objective: To evaluate the cardiac effects of extracts derived from the aerial parts of Ocimum basilicum Linn. Material and Methods: The aerial parts of Ocimum basilicum Linn. were extracted with 95% ethanol and double distilled water. The extracts were screened for their effects on frog-heart in situ preparation. Enzyme studies such as Na/K ATPase, CaATPase and MgATPase were done on the heart ...
متن کاملChemical Composition and Biological Activity of Star Anise Illicium verum Extracts Against Maize Weevil, Sitophilus zeamais Adults
This study aims to develop eco-friendly botanical pesticides. Dried fruits of star anise (Illicium verum Hook.f. (Austrobaileyales: Schisandraceae)) were extracted with methyl alcohol (MA), ethyl acetate (EA), and petroleum ether (PE) at 25°C. The constituents were determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, and the repellency and contact toxicity of the extracts against Sitophilus zeam...
متن کاملAqueous and ethanolic leaf extracts of Ocimum basilicum (sweet basil) protect against sodium arsenite-induced hepatotoxicity in Wistar rats.
We evaluated the effects of aqueous and ethanolic leaf extracts of Ocimum basilicum (sweet basil) on sodium arsenite-induced hepatotoxicity in Wistar rats. We observed that treatment of the animals with the extracts before or just after sodium arsenite administration significantly (p < 0.05) reduced mean liver and serum γ-Glutamyl transferase (γGT), and serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activiti...
متن کاملEVALUATION OF SELECTED INSECTICIDES AS SEED PROTECTANTS AGAINST THE MAIZE WEEVIL, (Sitophilus zeamais M
An investigation was carried out to evaluate the relative toxicity of selected newer insecticides viz., deltamethrin, spinosad, abamectin and emamectin benzoate in comparision with the organophosporus insecticide malathion to the maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky, in an attempt to find out a safer and effective seed protectant. The LC50 values based on bioassay studies indicated that...
متن کاملResistance of Tripsacorn to Sitophilus zeamais and Oryzaephilus surinamensis
One strategy that has been used to find germplasm for developing improved plant varieties is to test ancestral germplasm for the desired traits. Although the progenitors of commercial maize are not known, a hybrid (called Tripsacorn) developed from a perennial teosinte, Zea diploperennis, and eastern gamagrass, Tripsacum dactyloides, resembles the earliest known samples of primitive domesticate...
