Invitro antimycotic effect of the coconut, mustard, groundnut & soyabeen oils and the seeds of trigonella, ajwoin, mustard and garlic bulbs were mixed in the above oil samples to determine their effect on the spore germination of five pathogenic fungi i.e., Aspergillus niger, A.flavus, Absidia corymbifera, Penicilium nigricans and Candida albicans, isolated from otitic fungal infection of exter...

Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum) is an aromatic plant that yields secondary metabolites, continuously used for the readiness of food and medicines. 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...

Corresponding Author: Shailendra Kapoor, MD; e-mail: [email protected] 1751 I read with great interest the recent article by Kumar et al1. Interestingly, recent data suggests that Trigonella may exert a number of anti-neoplastic effects besides its anti-hyperglycemic effects. For instance, diosgenin (one of the saponins of Trigonella) is effective in reducing tumor growth in squamous c...

Rhizobium tibeticum was originally isolated from root nodules of Trigonella archiducis-nicolai grown in Tibet, China. This species is also able to nodulate Medicago sativa and Phaseolus vulgaris The whole-genome sequence of the type strain, R. tibeticum CCBAU85039T, is reported in this study.

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.

Petroleum ether, ethanol and water extracts of Trigonella foenum graecum seeds were investigated separately to determine their antiimplantation (antifertility) and estrogenic/antiestrogenic activity in female albino rats and Swiss mice. Among these, ethanol extract was found to be the most effective as antiimplantation and estrogenic agent. In preliminary phytochemical screening, ethanol extrac...

The purpose of this research work was to evaluate the seed extract (aqueous) on the visceral organs of broiler chicks. One hundred and sixty, day old broiler chicks were randomly assigned to four treatments A, B, C and D. Each treatment was replicated four times with ten chicks per replicate. Group A, B, C received the aqueous extract of Fenugreek @ 10, 20 and 30 ml/L, respectively while group ...
