Clove buds and lemongrass leaves were collected from three different locations of India and the essential oil was separated by hydrodistillation procedure. The essential oils were studied for its variation in physical properties and chemical composition. Chemical analysis by GC-MS evidenced that the main components of clove oil (CLV) were eugenol (78.5-87.7%) and caryophyllene (12.3-20.2%) and ...

We present a 3-month-old female who developed fulminant hepatic failure after ingesting less than 8 mL of clove oil. Initial treatment involved gastrointestinal decontamination, supportive measures, and admission to hospital. She subsequently developed fulminant hepatic failure and was treated with intravenous N-acetylcysteine (N-AC) according to a protocol used for acetaminophen poisoning. Ove...

this study was performed to evaluate the efficacy of injection of essential oil of eugenia caryophyllata in the kid horn buds, as a new chemical technique for disbudding. five-day-old healthy goat kids from both sexes (n = 16) were divided randomly into 4 equal groups. in groups 1, 2 and 3, 0.2 ml of clove essence and in group 4 (control) 0.2 ml of normal saline was injected into the left horn ...

Background: Hen egg yolk is a common component of most semen cryopreservation extenders. However, diluents containing the egg yolk may have adverse effects on the quality of the semen. Egg yolk could be solubilized by the addition of sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) in semen extenders. Many studies have shown beneficial effects of antioxidants addition to semen freezing extenders. Antioxidants are...

The research was aimed to evaluate the preservative effects of Ginger and Clove extract on quality shelf-life Clarias gariepinus processed with Kainji Modified Drum Kiln.

Phytochemical compositions ginger clove indicated presence Saponins, Flavonoids Tannins in both Clove, while Glycosides, Steroids Trepenoids only detecte...

to introduce ecologically safe acaricide, effects of essential oils derived from cuminum cyminum (cumin), syzygium aromaticum (clove), and mentha spicata (spearmint) were determined on tetranychus urticae at 25±1◦c, 65±5% rh and a photoperiod of 16:8 (l:d) hour. the essential oils extracted by hydro-distillation were characterized by means of gc and gc–ms. bioassays were performed by filter pap...

background: natural flavors are widely used in various foods, cosmetic and pharmaceutical products . these kinds of additives are applied as colors, preservatives, aroma and tasting agents.   objective: the large-scale use of certain food flavors requires accumulation of toxicological data on these substances, particularly in cases where structural similarities with other known substances showi...

Spodoptera frugiperda is a polyphagous insect that causes economic losses to several crops in Brazil and is the major obstacle to corn production. Researches focusing on alternative control, e.g. botanical products are expanding to offer a wide variety of molecules that interfere with different biological parameters of insect pests. Thus, this study tested the hypothesis that clove essential oi...
