Antimicrobial Activity and Phytochemical Screening of Crude Extracts of Medicinal Plants Grown in Eastern Ethiopia
The aim of my research was to screen secondary metabolites and antimicrobial activities of methanolic extracts of the leaves Vernonia amygdalina and Plantago lanceolata, and acetone extracts of the leaves Rosmarinus officinalis and Thymus schimperi against two bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli) and two fungi (Aspergillus niger and Fusarium oxysporum) using paper disc diffusio...
متن کاملGenetic transformation of the medicinal plant Ruta graveolens L. by an Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated method
Ruta graveolens L. is a source of pharmacologically active molecules such as furocoumarins, furoquinolines and acridone alkaloids. A genetic transformation method using Agrobacterium tumefaciens was developed for this plant species. The conditions for an efficient regeneration of R. graveolens led us to retain hypocotyls among other explants tested. Subsequently, transformation was obtained by ...

متن کاملAnti-tumour activity of Ruta graveolens extract.
An extract of Ruta graveolens was found to be cytotoxic to Dalton's lymphoma ascites (DLA), Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC) and L929 cells in culture (IC100=16 mg/ml) and also to increase the lifespan of tumour bearing animals. The extract further decreased solid tumours developing from DLA and EAC cells when given simultaneously with elongation of the lifespan of tumour-bearing animals. A home...
