According to reports, Candida albicans is believed to be the leading cause of fungal urinary tract infections, otherwise known as Candiduria. Prevention of candiduria using natural products is desirable and should be investigated. The current study reports the antimicrobial effect of H. sabdariffa (Roselle) extract, a common herbal drink, in combination with voriconazole or fluconazole against ...

The eco-friendly compounds especially plant extracts have emerged as green corrosion inhibitors for metals and alloys. inhibiting impact of Roselle extract on Cu-Zn alloy in 1M HNO3 solution was studied by weight loss, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), potentiodynamic polarization (PDP). It found that acts a good mixed-type inhibitor acid solution. rate decreases with increasing the...

ALTERATIONS IN BIOCHEMICAL COMPONENTS IN MESTA PLANTS: Yellow vein mosaic disease of mesta (kenaf, Hibiscus cannabinus L.; and roselle, H. sabdariffa L.) is a new entrant to the disease scenario and it is associated with a novel monopartite Begomovirus. Changes in different biochemical parameters in diseased mesta plants were observed as compared to healthy ones. Isozyme pattern and assays of d...
