The aim of the study was to investigate distribution, enrichment and accumulation of heavy metals in soil and Trigonella foenum-graecum (var. Pusa Early Bunching) after fertigation with paper mill effluent. Doses of paper mill effluent viz. 5%, 10%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% were used for fertigation of T. foenum-graecum along with bore well water (control). The results revealed that paper mill ef...

Trigonella foenum-graecum L. (Fenugreek) is an important plant of the Leguminosae family known to have medicinal properties. However, fraction based antiquorum sensing and antibiofilm activities have not been reported from this plant. In the present study T. foenum-graecum seed extract was sequentially fractionated and sub-MICs were tested for above activities. The methanol fraction of the extr...

Spices are indispensable components of Indian cuisines since ancient times. Spices are considered as a rich source of bio-active antimicrobial compounds. Antibacterial potentials of ethanolic extracts of two Indian spices Syzygium aromaticum (Lavang) and Trigonella foenum-graecum (Methi) were investigated. The extracts were subjected to a screening of antibacterial activity against selected tes...

Trigonella foenum-graecum (fenugreek) seeds have been documented as a traditional plant treatment for diabetes. In the present study, the antidiabetic properties of a soluble dietary fibre (SDF) fraction of T. foenum-graecum were evaluated. Administration of SDF fraction (0 x 5 g/kg body weight) to normal, type 1 or type 2 diabetic rats significantly improved oral glucose tolerance. Total remai...

The current study conducted to assess impact inoculation mycorrhiza on growth Trigonella foenum-graecum in different soil samples. presents two arrangements treatment experimental control pots. Different samples were obtained from areas In pots...

The activity of glyoxalase I from the soluble fraction of diabetic rat liver was found to decrease as compared to the control. Sodium orthovanadate in drinking water and Trigonella foenum graecum seed powder when administered to these diabetic animals were found to reverse the activity of glyoxalase I to control values. A combination of the above two antidiabetic compounds showed a better rever...

Trigonella foenum graecum (Fenugreek) was administered at 2 and 8 g/kg dose orally to normal and alloxan induced diabetic rats. It produced a significant fall (P < 0.05) in blood glucose both in the normal as well as diabetic rats and the hypoglycemic effect was dose related.
