In this study, the crude ethanol Rhynchosia nulubilis cultivated with Ganoderma lucidum mycelium (RNGM) extract was solvent fractionated with organic solvents such as n-hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, and water. The anticancer activities, anti-inflammatory activity total polyphenols, total flavonoids, isoflavones, and β-glucan of the solvent fractions of RNGM were studied. The ethyl acetate ...

Antipyretic effects of petroleum ether and ethyl acetate soluble fractions of ethanol extract of the leaves of Peperomia pellucida (Linn.) HBK (Fam. Piperaceae) were investigated. Intraperitoneal administration of boiled milk at a dose of 0.5 ml/kg body weight in albino rabbit leads to pyrexia. Intraperitoneal (i.p.) administration of petroleum ether and ethyl acetate soluble fractions of ethan...

Two bioactive coumarins including 7-hydroxycoumarin (umbelliferone) and 7-hydroxyl-6-methoxy-3, 70-dicoumarylether (daphnoretin) were separated from the ethyl acetate extract of the stems of Edgeworthia chrysantha Lindl (E. papyrifera) by high speed countercurrent chromatography (HSCCC). The two-phase solvent system used was composed of n-hexane-ethyl acetate–methanol–water at an optimized volu...

Abstract Our previous studies showed that various extracts of Persian shallot (Allium hirtifolium) have anti-angiogenic effects. This study has been undertaken to isolate and identify the major effective anti-angiogeneic sub-fraction of shallot. After preparation of the 50% hydroalcoholic extract of shallot bulbs, the extract was successively fractionated into n-hexane, ethyl acetate, n-butanol...

Microbial-based pest control is an attractive alternative to chemical insecticides. The present study sought to evaluate the toxicity of the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana-28 ethyl acetate extracts on different larval stages and pupae of Culex quinquefasciatus mosquitoes. B. bassiana-28 ethyl acetate mycelial extracts produced mosquitocidal activity against larvae and pupae which wa...

The antioxidant property of the 70% aqueous ethanol extract of Phyllanthus amarus roots and its ether-soluble, ethyl acetate-soluble, and aqueous fractions were investigated by various in vitro assays. The root extracts showed higher DPPH, hydroxyl, superoxide, and nitric oxide radical scavenging and reducing power activity. Among all the samples, the ethyl acetate-soluble fraction demonstrated...

The present study evaluated the free radical scavenging capacity and antioxidant potential of different solvent fractions (Petroleum ether, Ethyl acetate, Butanol and Water) of methanolic extract of Cissus quadrangularis stem. Ethyl acetate fraction of Cissus quadrangularis stem possessed a high amount of total phenolic and flavonoid contents as compared to other solvent fractions. Also Ethyl a...

OBJECTIVE To investigate the acaricidal activity of different extracts from Syzygium cumini (S. cumini) (Pomposia) againsst Tetranychus urticae Koch (T. urticae) and the biochemical changes in antioxidants enzymes. METHODS Six extracts of S. cumini (Pomposia) at concentrations of 75, 150 and 300µg/mL were used to control T. urticae (Koch). RESULTS The ethanol extract showed the most efficie...

Artocarpus altilis (breadfruit) leaf extracts in different solvent media (petroleum ether, methanol and ethyl acetate) were examined for the antimicrobial activity against some pathogenic bacterial species like Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Streptococcus mutans and Enterococcus faecalis following the MIC (minimal inhibitory concentrations). Steroids, phytosterols, gums and resi...

Introduction: The phytochemicals in medicinal plants are defined as bioactive non nutrient plant compounds in fruits, vegetables and grains that have been linked to reducing the risk of major chronic diseases. The medicinal plant are promising to have such have effective medicinal property due to presence of phytochemical compounds like alkaloids, tannins, flavonoids and phenolic compounds. The...
