In this study, we evaluate the olfactory responses of Mahanarva spectabilis adults to aqueous extracts from following non-host plants for pest insect: garlic (Allium sativum L.), rue (Ruta graveolens cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum J. Presl), lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus Stapf.), clove (Syzygium aromaticum star anise (Illicium Hook.f), eucalyptus (Eucalyptus globulus Labill.), tobacco (Nicotiana ...

Heterotrophic cell suspension cultures of Ruta graveolens were established by reversion of photom ixotrophic cultures without any change in the chemical composition of the growth medium. The heterotrophic cultures were qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed by gaschromatography and mass spectroscopy for volatile compounds. The terpenoid hydrocarbons geijerene and pregeijerene, C6-C8 ketones,...

UNLABELLED Acute Otitis Externa is an inflammation of the outer auditory meatus, and according to popular saying, medicinal plant extracts can be used in its treatment. AIM to assess the in vitro antimicrobial activity of the following plants: Aleolanthus suaveolens; Caryophyllus aromaticus; Cymbopogon citratus; Matricaria chamomila; Pithecellobium avaremotemo; Plectranthus amboinicus and Rut...

We give a new proof of a recent inequality for bicentric quadrilaterals that is an extension of the Euler-like inequality R ≥ √ 2r. A bicentric quadrilateral ABCD is a convex quadrilateral that has both an incircle and a circumcircle. In [6], Zhang Yun called these “double circle quadrilaterals” and proved that

The antioxidant properties of Ruta graveolens L. were evaluated by two different methods; free radical scavenging using DPPH and inhibition of lipid peroxidation by the ferric thiocyanate method. The IC50 value of the methanol extract in DPPH inhibition was 200.5 μg/mL which was acceptable in comparison with BHT (41.8 μg/mL). In thiocyanate method, the plant extract demonstr...
