background: the repetitive use of antibiotics in different fields (veterinary and medicine) improves the emergence and occurrence of the resistance phenomenon in pathogenic bacteria. due to the problem of antimicrobial resistance, it is an urgent need to discover new drugs and alternative treatments for the control of bacterial diseases in aquaculture. objectives: the purpose of this study is t...

Epilachna vigintioctopunctata is an important pest that causes considerable economic losses to many crops including egg-plants. The crude aqueous extracts of leaves from three indigenous plants namely Ricinus communis, Calotropis procera and Datura metel were used against this beetle aiming at its control under laboratory conditions. Larvicidal bioassays of the extracts showed the following ord...

Macrophomina phaseolina (Tassi goid) is a pathogen that causes Charcoal rot of mungbean resulting in to a great economic loss. In the present study effect of Ocimum sanctum L., Calotropis procera (Ait.) Ait. f. and Astragalous tribuloides Delile extract on the survival of Macrophomina phaseolina was studied. The variety of different extracts of Ocimum sanctum L., Calotropis procera (Ait.) Ait.f...

The present study was designed to evaluate relative contribution of different polyphenols (total phenolics, flavonoids, flavonols) and their antioxidants activities in aqueous extracts of different parts of some plants; Argemone mexicana, Datura metel, Calotropis procera, Thevetia peruviana, and Cannabis sativa. The antioxidants (total phenolics, flavonoids, flavones) were determined by chemica...

Abstract The present research study was aimed to investigate the efficiency of selected medicinal plants against Plasmodium vivax. Crude methanolic extracts from seeds leaves Datura stramonium , Parthenium hysterophorus Calotropis procera and Dodonaea viscosa were prepared. In addition, Atropine also isolated alkaloid components Eucalyptus obliqua evaluate their in vitro anti-plasmodial effects...

There have been a lot of practical applications phytoremediation in the last ten years, involving organic, inorganic, heavy metal, and radionuclide remediation. India would find this to be an excellent alternative conventional remediation methods as it is sustainable inexpensive process. The huge retention industrial waste soil resulted pollution which more hazardous due long-term persistence c...

Alkaloids, GS-MS, Datura stramonium The alkaloid spectrum in roots, leaves and seeds of Datura stramonium L. was investigated by GC-MS. Twenty-nine tropane alkaloids are detected. Twelve of them are new constituents for the species and the two tropane esters 3-(3'-acetoxytropoyloxy)tropane (21) and 3-(2'-hydroxytropoyloxy)tropane (26) are described for the first time.

Aqueous leaf extract of four different species of Datura viz. D.stramonium L., D. innoxia Mill.Gard, D. metal L. and D. ferox L. Amoen were tested for their antifungal activity against phytopathogenic molds in terms of mycelial growth of Alternaria solani and Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. udum causing early blight of tomato and wilt of pigeonpea respectively. The extract of Datura sp. at 5, 10, 15 a...
