The aim of this research was to investigate antidiabetic activity of Costus igneus (also known as insulin plant) leaves extracts in streptozotocin induced diabetic albino rats. A comparison was made between the action of Costus igneus extract and a known antidiabetic drug glibenclamide (5mg/kg body wt.). An oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was also performed in experimental diabetic rats. Eth...

Rao C. A. et al; (2003) evaluated hypoglycemic and antihyperglycemic activity of ethanolic fraction of fruits of Terminalia pallid at different doses in normal and alloxan diabetic rats. The ethanolic extract of fruits of TP at a dose of 0.5 g/kg b.w. could produce a significant fall in blood glucose levels by about 24% in diabetic rats, after 5 h of treatment. But none of these extracts could ...

an efficient and direct procedure for the synthesis of benzo[h]-indeno[1,2-b]-quinoline derivatives has been described. the procedure employs a three-component condensation reaction in one-pot using 2h-indene-1, 3-dione, naphthalen-1-amine,and aldehydes in the presence of catalytic amount of l-prolinein aqueous media.

the side effects of synthetic antioxidants have been considered in different studies. accordingly, there is an increasing interest toward the use of natural substances instead of the synthetic ones. in this study, the aqueous and ethanolic extracts of pistacia vera leaves and fruits as well as hydroalcoholic extract of gum were tested for a possible antioxidant activity using in vitro methods. ...

Ethanolic and aqueous (hot and cold) extracts of the fruit pulp, stem bark and leaves of Tamarindus indica were evaluated for antibacterial activity, in vitro, against 13 Gram negative and 5 Gram positive bacterial strains using agar well diffusion and macro broth dilution techniques, simultaneously. The fruit pulp extracts exhibited a wide spectrum of activity; the cold water extract against 9...
