AIM The aim of the study is to investigate the antibacterial activity of 10 volatile oils extracted from medicinal plants, including galangal (Alpinia galanga Linn.), ginger (Zingiber officinale), plai (Zingiber cassumunar Roxb.), lime (Citrus aurantifolia), kaffir lime (Citrus hystrix DC.), sweet basil (Ocimum basilicum Linn.), tree basil (Ocimum gratissimum), lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus D...

The use of plant extract in the synthesis of nanostructured materials can be a cost effective and eco-friendly approach. In this paper we report the biosynthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles using Citrus aurantifolia extracts. Spherical zinc oxide nanoparticles were produced using different concentration of zinc acetate which was used as the zinc source. FESEM imaging showed the formation of nan...

Complex multi-trophic interactions in vectorborne diseases limit our understanding and ability to predict outbreaks. Arthropod-vectored pathogens are especially problematic, with the potential for novel interspecific interactions during invasions. Variations and novelties in plant-arthropod-pathogen triumvirates present significant threats to global food security. We examined aspects of a phyto...

Green chemistry is an alternative route of which has overcome the limitations of other chemical methods. Nanocrystalline zinc oxide (NC-ZnO) with different structures have been grown on quartz plates by spin coating method by the use of plant extracts of Citrus aurantifolia which can be a cost effective and eco-friendly approach.. The present exploration describes the synthesis and characteriza...

Citrus aurantifolia (Rutaceae) is a plant used in traditional medicine the treatment of inflammatory and analgesic pathologies. The objective this study was to evaluate activity aqueous extract leaves mice. phytochemical revealed flavonoids, tannins, polyphenols, coumarins, saponosides polyterpene sterols absence alkaloids. Concerning acute toxicity at single dose 2000 mg/ Kg pc orally, it that...

Nilon termoplastik dapat digunakan sebagai basis gigi tiruan. memiliki kemampuan menyerap larutan sehingga menyebabkan ekspansi linier. Basis tiruan nilon dibersihkan dengan ekstrak jeruk nipis (Citrus aurantifolia) 40%. Tujuanpenelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pengaruh lama perendaman bahan dalam terhadap perubahan dimensi. Penelitian menggunakan 32 spesimen (Bioplast, ukuran 65 mm x 10 2,...

the effect of four citrus rootstocks {sour orange (citrus aurantium), bakraeii (c. reticulata × c. limetta, mexican lime (c. aurantifolia) and volkamerlemon (c. volkameriana)} were evaluated on sweet lime leaf chlorophyll content and mineral concentrations (n, p, k, ca, na, mg, fe, zn, mn, cl, cu, and b) in a completely randomized design of four replications. budded sweet lime on the above root...
