the leaves of four cultivated eucalyptus species, eucalyptus microtheca var. microtheca f. muell., eucalyptus spathulata, eucalyptus largiflorens and eucalyptus torquata were collected in spring from kashan and isfahan provinces (central region of iran). after drying the plant materials in shade, their essential oils were obtained by hydro-distillation. the oils were analyzed by capillary gas c...

A set of over 8000 Diversity Arrays Technology (DArT) markers was tested for its utility in high-resolution population and phylogenetic studies across a range of Eucalyptus taxa. Small-scale population studies of Eucalyptus camaldulensis, Eucalyptus cladocalyx, Eucalyptus globulus, Eucalyptus grandis, Eucalyptus nitens, Eucalyptus pilularis and Eucalyptus urophylla demonstrated the potential of...

Eucalyptus is well reputed for its use as medicinal plant around the globe. The present study was planned to evaluate chemical composition, antimicrobial and antioxidant activity of the essential oils (EOs) extracted from seven Eucalyptus species frequently found in South East Asia (Pakistan). EOs from Eucalyptus citriodora, Eucalyptus melanophloia, Eucalyptus crebra, Eucalyptus tereticornis, E...

Eucalyptus species are well reputed for their traditional use in Asia as well as in other parts of the world; therefore, the present study was designed to investigate the antimicrobial and antioxidant activities associated with essential oils from different Eucalyptus species. Essential oils from the leaves of six Eucalyptus species, including: Eucalyptus woodwardi, Eucalyptus stricklandii, Euc...

Eucalyptus species are widely planted for reforestation in subtropical China. However, the effects of Eucalyptus plantations on the regional water use remain poorly understood. In an age sequence of 2-, 4- and 6-year-old Eucalyptus plantations, the tree water use and soil evaporation were examined by linking model estimations and field observations. Results showed that annual evapotranspiration...

For the purposes of forest restoration, carbon (C) fixation, and economic improvement, eucalyptus (Eucalyptus urophylla) has been widely planted in South China. The understory of eucalyptus plantations is often occupied by a dense community of the fern Dicranopteris dichotoma, which intercepts tree canopy leaf litter before it reaches the ground. To understand the effects of this interception o...

Global sustainability megatrends are promoting the utilization of sustainably perceived fibers such as recycled and agricultural residue in hygiene tissue applications. Tissue paper products advertised sustainable have higher prices inferior performance than conventional manufactured from virgin wood fibers. This work demonstrates feasibility using residues fique plantations (Furcraea microphyl...

In order to establish the marker constituents of the natural antioxidant food-additive Eucalyptus leaf extract, the UV-absorbing constituents of two eucalyptus leaf extracts registered as food additives (eucalyptus A and B) were investigated. Several major peaks on the reversed-phase HPLC chromatogram of eucalyptus A were characterized as gallic acid, ellagic acid, 3-O-beta-D-glucuronides of qu...

Paper mills generate large quantities of wastewater and sludge waste depending on the type paper making processes employed. This poses several problems regarding treatment, discharge, disposal. Whenever is generated, it should be treated in treatment plants prior to being released environment since can polluting dangerous. A study was conducted at Star Mills Ltd. Saharanpur, UP demonstrate exis...

BACKGROUND The leaves of Eucalyptus globulus (eucalyptus) are used for treatment of diabetes mellitus in traditional medicine. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of eucalyptus in treatment of established systemic infection with Candida albicans in normal and streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. METHODS Sixty normoglycemic male Wistar rats, weighing 200-250 g, were selected and...
