the purpose of this study is to investigate the performance and efficiency of moringa seeds from different sources on turbidity. a protein analysis test was done for each source; then two different methods of extraction were compared to examine the coagulation activity for the moringa's active ingredient. the results of sodium chloride (naci) extraction in comparison to distilled water ext...

The use of natural plants products that reduce mosquito population can provide many associated benefits that limit pesticides environmental impact due to shorter latency and may be useful in preventing development of resistance. The larval mortality was observed at 24hrs and 48hrs of time exposure. LC50 value was calculated. Microscopic slides were prepared from live larvae and microscopic phot...

In this study, the forty Thai medicinal plants were used to screen the antibacterial activity against Campylobacter jejuni. Crude 95% ethanolic extracts of each plant were prepared. Antibacterial activity was investigated by the disc diffusion assay, and MICs and MBCs were determined by broth microdilution. The results of antibacterial screening showed that five plants have activity against C.j...

Germination and seedling growth of major cereals treated with Moringa oleifera leaf extracts was investigate at University of Zambia. Aqueous extract of Moringa oleifera at the ratio of 1:10 (w/v) were sprayed on seed of maize (Zea mays. L.), rice (Oryzae sativa.L.), sorghum (Sorghum bicolor. L.) and wheat (Triticum Aestivum. L.) in a growth room at 25C for 14 days. The data were subjected to a...

Based on ethnopharmacological information, four different varieties of seeds were obtained from authentic seed suppliers. Ethanol, methanol, acetone, chloroform and petroleum ether seed extracts were assessed for antibacterial activity against wound isolates of Multi Drug Resistant Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MDR-MRSA). Ethanol, methanol and acetone extracts of Moringa oleifera...

Este trabalho descreve o potencial de sorção das sementes de Moringa oleifera para descontaminação de Ag em soluções aquosas. Espectroscopia de infravermelho foi usada para elucidação de possíveis grupos funcionais responsáveis pela adsorção de Ag. Estudos de adsorção foram feitos em batelada usando soluções padrão de Ag como função da massa do adsorvente, tempo de extração, tamanho da partícul...

The role of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) in pentobarbitone (PB) sleeping time, gross behaviour, electrical activity of the brain and serum 5-HT level was studied in Holtzman strain adult albino rats following treatment with M. oleifera (MO). MO (350mg/kg) caused inhibition of awareness, touch response, motor activity, righting reflex, and grip strength. It significantly increased the PB sleeping ...
