Physicochemical properties, consumer acceptance, antioxidant and angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activities of infusions and fermented beverages of Eucalyptus camaldulensis and Litsea glaucescens were compared. Among physicochemical parameters, only the pH of fermented beverages decreased compared with the unfermented infusions. No relevant changes were reported in consumer prefe...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the antifungal activity of essential oil (EO) of Eucalyptus camaldulensis Dehnh. against five Fusarium spp. commonly associated with maize. The essential oil had been extracted by steam distillation in a modified Clevenger-type apparatus from leaves of E. camaldulensis and their chemical composition characterized by gas chromatography mass spectrometr...

The present investigation is design to determine the chemical composition of the essential oil of Eucalyptus camaldulensis grown in Egypt and to study its antioxidant and cytotoxic effects on different cancer and normal cell lines. The analysis of E. camaldulensis oil using GC/MS resulted in the identification of 43 compounds. The current results indicated that the essential oil has weak radica...

Because of its resistance to antibiotics, Staphylococcus aureus causes many of problems in hospital and society. As one of the main reasons of clinical infections it can cause to serious surgical and cutaneous infections and pneumonia. The inhibitory effect of the essential oils include; Eucalyptus largiflorence, E. camaldulensis, E. malliodora and E. polycarpa as a natural and herbal antimicro...

A differential pattern in the RAPD profile of Eucalyptus F1 natural hybrids FRI-4 (E. terticornis x E. camaldulensis), FRI-5 (E. camaldulensis X E. tereticornis) and controlled reciprocal crosses FRI-14 (E. torelliana X E. citriodora) along with their parental combinations was assessed through Polymerase Chain Reaction using commercially available primers. After electrophoresis of PCR product t...

In Egypt, the River Red Gum (Eucalyptus camaldulensis) is a well-known tree and is highly appreciated by the rural and urban dwellers. The role of Eucalyptus trees in the ecology of Cryptococcus neoformans is documented worldwide. The aim of this survey was to show the prevalence of C. neoformans during the flowering season of E. camaldulensis at the Delta region in Egypt. Three hundred and ele...
