Hydroethanolic and aqueous extracts of leaf and stem bark of Parkia biglobosa (Jacq) Benth. (Mimosaceae) were tested against clinical isolates Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhi, Shigella dysenteriae and Enterococcus faecalis, and corresponding collection strains E. coli CIP 105 182, Salmonella enterica CIP 105 150, Shigella dysenteriae CIP 54-51 and Enterococcus faecalis CIP 103 907. Discs of ...

Agelanthus dodoneifolius DC Danser (Loranthaceae) is used for the treatment of various diseases including asthma. The aqueous and hydroalcoholic extracts have been reported to have anti-inflammatory, spasmolytic and bronchorelaxant activities. The present study investigates the effects of the aqueous decoction and the diethyl ether, ethyl acetate and butanolic fractions of Agelanthus dodoneifol...

Stryphnodendron rotundifolium is a phytotherapic used in the northeast of Brazil for the treatment of inflammatory processes which normally are associated with oxidative stress. Consequently, we have tested the antioxidant properties of hydroalcoholic (HAB) and aqueous extracts (AB) from the bark and aqueous extract (AL) from the leaves of Stryphnodendron rotundifolium to determine a possible a...

Stachys lavandulifolia is among the species that is used for immune disorders, applied topically, or taken orally as an herbal tea. The plant is also used for stomachache, anodyne, labor, and spasm. According to the results of a pharmacological survey, the extract of Stachys lavandulifolia from the aerial parts has shown to be effective in the improvement of patients suffering from anxiety diso...

In this work, hydroalcoholic extracts were obtained from Eugenia brasiliensis leaves as a source of bioactive compounds potential application to fresh tomatoes for preservation. Analyzes total phenolics, flavonoids, antioxidant and antibacterial activity, toxicity performed. Tomatoes treated with the by brief immersion in an aqueous solution at concentrations 200, 600, 1000 mg L−1, evaluated we...

The current study was design to exploit the Azadirachta indica leaves, seeds and twigs for %yield, phytochemicals content antioxidant activities using infusion, hydroalcoholic, decoction microwave extraction techniques. contents were determined by standard reported methods. While activity assessed three (03) standards In-vitro test systems as 1, 1’-diphynyl- 2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), Hydrogen pe...

Julocroton triqueter extracts have antileishmanial activity; however, the effect on genetic stability has not been studied. We evaluated genotoxic and cell death induction potential (in vitro and in vivo) of J. triqueter var. triqueter hydroalcoholic extracts, as well as their antigenotoxic potential in vivo. The in vitro genotoxic studies were performed using human leukocytes at four different...
