Aim: This study was planned to investigate the effect of sugar beet, neem leaf, linseed and coriander on growth parameters such as feed intake, body weight gain, feed conversion ratio (FCR), performance index (PI), and carcass characteristics in broiler birds. Materials and Methods: The experiment was conducted for a period of 42 days on Vanaraja strain of broiler birds. Different dietary suppl...

AIM To compare the antibacterial efficacy of Azadirachta indica (Neem), Commiphora myrrha (Myrrh), Glycyrrhiza glabra (Liquorice) with 2% Chlorhexidine (CHX) against E. faecalis by using Real Time PCR. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of fifty teeth specimens (n=50) were inoculated with E. faecalis for 21 days. Specimens were divided into five groups (Group 1: Myrrh, Group 2: Neem, Group 3: Liqu...

s: Background and Objectives: This in vitro study was designed to evaluate and compare the antimicrobial effects of extracts of Neem sticks, Tulsi leaves and Triphala against Streptococcus Mutans and Lactobacillus Acidophilus.Materials and Methods: Sterile solutions of 10% & 25% concentrations were prepared from Neem, Tulsi and Triphala extracts. After growing on culture plates micro-organisms ...

Escherichia coli O157:H7 (EcO157) shed in cattle manure can survive for extended periods of time and intervention strategies to control this pathogen at the source are critical as produce crops are often grown in proximity to animal raising operations. This study evaluated whether neem (Azadirachta indica), known for its antimicrobial and insecticidal properties, can be used to amend manure to ...

To study the effect of neem extract on the growth and viable count of foodborne and contaminated bacteria and determine its active inhibitors. Different concentrations of methanolic extracts (200 mg/ml, 150 mg/ml, 100 mg/ml, 50 mg/ml and 25 mg/ml) were prepared. One-hundred microliters of standardized test organisms was treated with solvents or extract. The extract was tested against Gram-posit...

Root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita is one of the major limiting factors affecting plant growth and yield. Currently, synthetic pesticides are principle means used to control the nematodes but organic amendments and biocontrol agents may provide a safer alternatives. A study was conducted to evaluate the nematicidal potential of neem and Bacillus thuringiensis in controlling M. incognita....
