Optimization of Atropine Extraction Process from Atropa Belladonna by Modified Bubble Column Extractor with Ultrasonic Bath

Modified Bubble Column Extraction with Ultrasonic Bath (BCE-UB) method was used to extract atropine from the stem and leaves of Atropa belladonna. Optimum condition were obtained with Kamada solvent which was chloroform-methanol-ammonia 15:15:1(v/v/v) as extraction solvent, the particle size of  less than  350 µm, an extraction time of 23.95 min, a liquor to material ratio of 15.08 mL/g and...

In Vitro Acaricidal Activity of Atropa belladonna and Its Components, Scopolamine and Atropine, against Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus

In vitro efficacy of methanolic extract of Atropa belladonna and its components scopolamine and atropine was assessed against Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus. Five concentrations of the extract (1.25%, 2.5%, 5%, 10%, and 20%) were used whereas scopolamine and atropine were each tested at 0.1%. In adult immersion test, the extract was lethal to ticks at 20% concentration. The LC50 and LC95 v...
