b-biotype bemisia tabaci is a severe insect pest worldwide in many ornamental, agricultural, and horticultural crops. control of this insect is obstructed by resistance to many acetylcholinesterase (ache)-inhibiting insecticides, such as organophosphates and carbamates. in the present work, we evaluated the acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activity of six monoterpenoids namely α-pinene, terpineo...

the therapeutic potential of crude extracts of aerial parts (stem, leaves and flowers) of tridax procumbens was screened for in vitro antioxidant potential and alpha amylase inhibitory action. the crude hydro-methanolic, aqueous and petroleum ether extracts were obtained by percolation-maceration method using 50% methanol, double distilled water and petroleum ether as solvents. phytochemical sc...

considering the emergence of antibiotic resistance, scientists are interested in using new antimicrobial agents in the treatment of infectious diseases including infections of the enteric systems. lactic acid bacteria have the great potential to produce antimicrobial compounds that inhibit and control pathogenic bacteria. the aim of this study was to determine the anti-bacterial and anti-adhere...

objective(s):one strategy for the treatment of diabetes is inhibition of pancreatic α- amylase. plants contains different chemical constituents with potential for inhibition of α-amylase and hence maybe used as therapeutic. materials and methods: urtica dioica and juglans regia linn were tested for α-amylase inhibition. different concentrations of leaf aqueous extracts were incubated with enzym...

Background:α-Glucosidase Inhibition can significantly prevent glucose uptake after meal, and helps in controlling of some adverse effects in diabetics. So determination of α-Glucosidase inhibitory effect and antioxidant activity of the Haplophyllum acutifolium and Ferula haussknechtii aerial organs was the aim of this study.Methods:Inhibitory effect of hexane extracts from dif...
