The present study deals with phytochemical and anthelmintic evaluation of corm of Amorphophallus campanulatus. This evaluation revealed the presence of many phytochemical constituents. Corm was extracted with petroleum ether, chloroform and methanol. Crude tannins were isolated from methanol extract. All extracts and crude tannins were evaluated for anthelmintic activity. Chloroform, methanol e...

The aim of the present work was to study the effects of tannins from carob (CT; Ceratonia siliqua), acacia leaves (AT; Acacia cyanophylla) and quebracho (QT; Schinopsis lorentzii) on ruminal biohydrogenation in vitro. The tannins extracted from CT, AT and QT were incubated for 12 h in glass syringes in cow buffered ruminal fluid (BRF) with hay or hay plus concentrate as a substrate. Within each...

The use of phytogenic dietary additives is being evaluated as a means to improve animal productivity. The effect of tannins seems to be the influence not only directly on the digestive process through binding of dietary proteins but also indirectly over their effects on gastrointestinal microbiota. High-throughput sequencing of 16S rRNA gene was used to analyze the impact of dietary supplementa...

Iron deficiency remains a global health issue, and antinutritional factors, such as tannins, are often cited as contributors to the high prevalence of deficiency. Despite this, tannin-rich diets may have potential beneficial cardiovascular and cancer-fighting properties because of the antioxidant activity of tannins. Furthermore, epidemiologic studies and long-term trials involving participants...

This study investigated the separate and combined anthelmintic (AH) effects of different phenolic compounds, including condensed tannins and flavonoids, all of which are known to occur in willow leaves, a potentially valuable dry season feed. A range of contrasting model tannins, which span the whole range of willow tannins, were isolated from tilia flowers, goat willow leaves, black currant le...

Three hydrolyzable tannins, nobotannins L, M and N, were isolated from the water-soluble portion of the leaf extract of Tibouchina semidecandra, and their trimeric structures were elucidated from spectral and chemical evidence. Nobotanins L and N exist as equilibrium mixtures of four anomers due to the presence of two unacylated anomeric centers.

Abstract In the present study, tannins from stem and root barks of Tessmannia burttii Harms ( Caesalpiniaceae ), a plant species abundantly growing in Tanzania other parts Africa, were investigated for their suitability hides tanning. Tannin powder was extracted at selected temperatures (30, 50 80 °C) influence each temperature on crosslinking capacity evaluated. The interaction mechanism betwe...

BACKGROUND: Dental disease is a significant public health problem. Various efforts have been made to maintain oral by utilizing natural ingredients from plants. One of the often used among community Vegetable Starfruit Juice (Averrhoa bilimbi) and Rosella Tea. AIM: The purpose this study was analyze effectiveness rosella tea (Hibiscus sabdariffa L) on Inhibition Plaque Formation. METHODS: Desig...
