Secondary metabolites obtained from the indigenous plants with proven mosquito control potential can be used as an alternative to synthetic insecticides under the integrated vector control. The essential oil extract from the forest redgum, Eucalyptus tereticornis Sm. (Myrtaceae) was tested against mature and immature mosquito vector Anopheles stephensi Liston (Diptera) under laboratory conditio...

Various viewpoints were proposed to explain the causes of recent years’ severe drought occurred in Yunnan and Guizhou, China. In general there are two parties of viewpoints, the Eucalyptus cause and climate change cause. I think Yunnan-Guizhou drought has been mainly caused by abnormal climate change. Eucalyptus was not significant in the formation of Yunnan-Guizhou drought. However, the forest...

Three different types of biomass sourced from forestry waste (eucalyptus residues), agricultural (wheat straw), and energy crop (miscanthus) were used as starting materials to produce hemicellulosic sugars, furans (furfural hydroxymethylfurfural), oligosaccharides. A two-step hybrid process was implemented; first autohydrolysed without any additive extract hemicelluloses dissolve it in water. T...

Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a liver disease associated with metabolic syndrome. The aim of this work was to examine whether eucalyptus (Eucalyptus globulus) leaf extract (ELE) and banaba (Lagerstroemia speciosa L.) leaf extract (BLE) inhibited NASH induced by excessive ingestion of fructose in rats. Wistar rats were divided into four groups according to four distinct diets: starch di...

The essential oil industry is a growing sector that generates 5.41 billion USD annually worldwide. Essential oils are widely used in medicine, agriculture, and perfumery. Although there available systems the market for domestic extraction, replacing entire equipment case of repair or malfunction can be costly. To address this problem, pilot-scale extractor system was developed operates through ...

the leaves of four cultivated eucalyptus species, eucalyptus microtheca var. microtheca f. muell., eucalyptus spathulata, eucalyptus largiflorens and eucalyptus torquata were collected in spring from kashan and isfahan provinces (central region of iran). after drying the plant materials in shade, their essential oils were obtained by hydro-distillation. the oils were analyzed by capillary gas c...

A set of over 8000 Diversity Arrays Technology (DArT) markers was tested for its utility in high-resolution population and phylogenetic studies across a range of Eucalyptus taxa. Small-scale population studies of Eucalyptus camaldulensis, Eucalyptus cladocalyx, Eucalyptus globulus, Eucalyptus grandis, Eucalyptus nitens, Eucalyptus pilularis and Eucalyptus urophylla demonstrated the potential of...

Eucalyptus is well reputed for its use as medicinal plant around the globe. The present study was planned to evaluate chemical composition, antimicrobial and antioxidant activity of the essential oils (EOs) extracted from seven Eucalyptus species frequently found in South East Asia (Pakistan). EOs from Eucalyptus citriodora, Eucalyptus melanophloia, Eucalyptus crebra, Eucalyptus tereticornis, E...

This study was aimed to determine the qualitative and quantitative phenolic compounds. Results revealed that HPLC analysis identified Hydroxy derivatives of benzoic acids, hydroxy-cinnamic in addition flavonoids. The major compounds detected clove were eugenol 32.5 mg/L, while thyme predominant phenol gallic acid 35.9 mg/L. Quercetin greatest compound both eucalyptus sage 49.8 55.6 respectively...
