Olive leaves have an antioxidant capacity, and olive leaf extract can protect the blood, spleen and hippocampus in lead-poisoned mice. However, little is known about the effects of olive leaf extract on lead-induced brain injury. This study was designed to determine whether olive leaf extract can inhibit lead-induced brain injury, and whether this effect is associated with antioxidant capacity....

introduction: renal ischemia reperfusion is considered to be one of the causes of acute renal failure (aki). in addition, renal ischemia is an important incident usually occurs due to renal transplantion, repair of suprarenal aneurysm, hemorrhagic shock. a recent study reported that reactive oxygen species (ros) are important mediators of aki. it seems essential to use antioxidant to decrease t...

in this study, antifungal property of olive leaf extracts against candida albicans ptcc-5027 was examined. fresh olive leaf extracts were prepared using distilled water in a soxhlet apparatus. the antifungal activity of the extract was analyzed by measuring the minimum inhibitory concentration (mic) and minimum fungicidal concentration (mfc), using the microdilution test and disc diffusion assa...

Crude extracts from olive leaves and arugula seeds were screened for its in vitro antibacterial activity. Antibacterial activity was determined by using disc diffusion method against three bacteria (, Staphylococcus aurous and Bacillus cereus). Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) have been determined. Gallic acid was used as a standard drug for th...
