Plant extracts have extensively been studied to look for the treatment of various diseases but their poisoning effects have also been reported. The current study was undertaken with the objective of comparing acute toxic effect of Thioacetamide (TAA), a proven toxicant and Nerium oleander (N. oleander), a herb reported to have multiple therapeutic properties including anti-inflammatory, antifun...

BACKGROUND The present study was undertaken to study the larvicidal activity of different extracts of Nerium oleander leaves, and post-treatment temperature- toxicity relationship of these extracts against Culex pipiens. Further, the most potent extract was used to evaluate its biological and genotoxic activities. METHODS Crude extracts of N. oleander leaves were prepared using water, chlorof...

The current study prepareded to evaluate histopathological and some physiological parameters changes after treated with Nerium oleander L lead. Thus concentrated on tissue structures in the liver aqueous extract of lead solution. Its caused intense flaws albino mice. After expiration experimental time, blood specimens collecting value Aspartate Transaminase (AST), Alanine (ALT), urea (BUN) crea...

Nerium oleander var. ‘Villa Romaine’, commonly called oleander, is an ornamental shrub that exists in Tunisia the wild and cultivated form. This plant frequently propagated produced nurseries used urban plantings on roadsides. The effects of nature plants (spontaneous or cultivated), climatic conditions (localities), altitude (from 6 to 447 m) seed shape, size, germination Tunisian populations,...

In this study, we have examined the antioxidant activity and total phenolic content of different extracts (including water, methanol, water : methanol and acetone) of Nerium oleander L. grown in the north of Iran by employing various in-vitro assay, i.e. DPPH free radical scavenging, reducing power and total antioxidant capacity through the Mo (VI) reduction. The extracts showed different level...
