Calotropis procera, is known as crown flower or giant milkweed and belongs to the family Asclepiadacea. It has been traditionally used for various medicinal purposes. In present study, phytochemical analysis, antioxidant property, antimicrobial activity of C. procera were evaluated. Methanol was a solvent extract preparation using soxhlet extraction. The extracts subjected analysis different se...

The broadleaf vegetables require large amounts of nutrients to provide a high productivity, and quality products, mainly due their short period development growth. green manuring has emerged as viable alternative these requirements for vegetables, from spontaneous species in the Caatinga biome. Thus, aim this study was evaluate estimate maximum physical economic efficiencies lettuce arugula agr...

The thermal behavior of the biodegradable Calotropis procera (CP) particle-reinforced polylactic acid (PLA) biocomposites was investigated. injection molding process used to make composites, and CP particle weight percentage varied during (0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%). melt flow index, heat deflection temperature, Vicat softening point, properties composites were determined using dynamic mechanical t...

The biosorption of Cr (III) onto the leaf biomass of Calotropis procera popularly known as ‘bom bom’ in western Nigeria, over a wide range of reaction conditions were studied. The batch experiments showed that the biosorption of Cr (III) onto Calotropis procera leaf biomass is a rapid process reaching equilibrium within 10 minutes at an optimum pH value of 5. Other reaction conditions such as b...
