OBJECTIVES This study explored the qualitative and quantitative antibacterial potential of C. intybus. Further qualitative analysis of phytochemical content was perfo...

The genus Cichorium (Asteraceae) is made up of six species with major geographical presence in Europe and Asia. Cichorium intybus, commonly known as chicory, is well known as a coffee substitute but is also widely used medicinally to treat various ailments ranging from wounds to diabetes. Although this plant has a rich history of use in folklore, many of its constituents have not been explored ...

Synergistic activity of Salvia officinalis and Cichorium intybus extracts and commonly used antibiotics, amoxicillin and chloramphenicol, were evaluated. Interactions between plant extracts and antibiotics were tested by checkerboard method and interpreted as FIC index. Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923, Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853 and clinical isolates Staphyl...

chicory plant (cichorium intybus) belongs to asteraceae family and contains flavonoids. this research carried out in order to evaluate the effect of chicory plant on the activities of bifidobacterium bifidum and lactobacillus acidophilus. four containers containing a liter of 1.5 % sterilized skim milk were selected as four group in order to produce milk containing probiotic bifidobacterium bif...

this experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of various levels of cichorium intybus andcopper on performance and egg yolk cholesterol. total of 324 layer hens (hy-line w-36) were used in arandomized complete blocks with nine treatments, three replications of 12 birds in each from 38 to 50weeks of age. experimental diets include control, four levels of copper (150, 200, 250 and 300 m...

The biochemical, phytochemical and antioxidant composition of root, stem, leaves and seeds of Cichorium intybus L was determined. A statistically significant difference (p>0.05) was observed among different parts of Cichorium intybus regarding the biochemical, phytochemical and antioxidant composition. The leaves were found to possess comparatively higher values of total sugars non-reducing sug...
