Oct 28, 2010· Results. The ethanolic extracts of 51 species inhibited Escherichia coli, and 114 ethanolic extracts inhibited Staphylococcus aureus. In contrast, only 30 aqueous extracts showed activity against E. coli and 38 extracts against S. aureus. The MIC concentrations were mostly very high and ranged from 0.008 to 256mg/ml, with only 36 species showing inhibitory concentrations of <4mg/ml.

The zone of inhibition of the plant extract at the concentration of 62.5mg/ml was significantly different when compared to 500 mg/ml of the plant extract for the tested bacteria S. aureus, E. coli, K. pneumonia, S. typhi, and Citrobacter (p<0.05) and the zone of inhibition of the plant extract at 500 mg/ml was significantly different from that ...

The extract protein concentration obtained ranged from ≈0.5–1.5 μg μl –1 (4‐day‐old seedlings) to 2.5–5.5 μg μl –1 (7‐day‐old seedlings) and 5–10 μg μl –1 (adult plant leaves). The amount of protein loaded per lane was different depending on which phy was to be detected or which tissue was extracted, as specified in ...

In many parts of the world, medicinal herbs are widely used because people cannot afford the wonder drugs available on the market. The knowledge of using healing herbs is passed on from one generation to another. Even your grandparents used to rely on medicinal herbs when medical aid was not available.

To provide an extract or other substance that can impart not only bitterness and aroma but also taste elements such as koku and robustness without increasing astringency or harshness, and to provide a beverage having superior koku and robustness. Increasing hop-derived polyphenols, particularly trimeric proanthocyanidin makes it possible to provide beverages with koku and robustness without ...

At the concentration used, Fast Green stains the tissues within 10–15 s, so it is best to test the procedure on one or two slides before staining your entire set. In plant tissues stained with this method, Safranin O appears brilliant red in chromosomes, nuclei, lignified, suberized, or cutinized cell walls.

A stock solution of plant aqueous extract was prepared by dissolving 100 mg of extract in 1 ml of sterile distilled water. Likewise, for the ethanol extract, 100 mg of extract was dissolved in 1 ml of 10 % Tween-20 rather than the original solvent (i.e. Dimethyl sulfoxide), and so the initial concentration of the plant extract (100 mg/ml)

Therefore, methods for isolation of nuclei from intact plant cells and tissues have been developed for a number of plant species using embryos [25, 26], seed coat, cultured plant cells, meristematic root tissues or leaf tissues [30, 31]. Most of the isolation methods use the same steps of the procedure, including tissue disruption, filtration ...

Applying the present standardized method, the extracted DNA concentrations varied with the different plant species used in the present work (Table 2).The yield of isolated DNA ranged from 2.238 ηg/mg of seeds in case of Cucurbitales maxima to 24.957 ηg/mg of seeds in the case of Lupinus lupinus. The other classical CTAB method employed (Doyle and Doyle 1990) also produced comparable range of ...

GAE/gm of dry extract) and strong DPPH radical scavenging activity (IC 50 0.62 mg/gm of dry extract) whereas S. arvensis showed moderate antioxidant activities (Seal, 2011). Thus, the presence of an appreciable amount of ascorbic acid, flavonoids and phenolic acids in these plants …

Extraction techniques of Medicinal plants Extraction, as the term is used pharmaceutically, involves the separation of medicinally active portions of plant or animal tissues from the inactive or inert components by using selective solvents in standard extraction procedures. The products so obtained from plants are relatively

Antioxidant activity: Blois 17 method was used to determine the free radical scavenging activity of the plant extract by using DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl). Briefly, 0.2 mM DPPH solution was made using methanol. Ascorbic acid was taken as standard and 5 different concentrations (200, 400, 600, 800 and 1 mL) were taken to make the standard curve.

The extract of the solute in flow rate of 1 ml/min at the wavelength 210 nm and methanolic extract showed the antioxidant activity and powerful oxygen free radicals scavenging activities and the IC50 for the E. intermedia plant was near to the reference standard ascorbic acid. The HPLC method was useful for the quantitative purpose of ephedrine ...

The tomato will be washed thoroughly several times and sliced thinly. The seeds of the tomato will be discarded. The tomato will be oven dried for 3 days at 70°C and will then be ground until its powdered form.

Nevertheless, water extracts of A. discoridis developed the highest antimicrobial activity against all test microorganisms. Furthermore, acetone extracts of A. discoridis and R.chalepensis showed noteworthy inhibitory effects to most test microorganisms with mean inhibition zone values ranging from 15.7±1.2 to 23.7±2.5 mm and from 16.7±0.6 to 18.7±1.5 mm, respectively.

Background. Protein extracts obtained from cells or tissues often contain interfering substances, which must be removed for preparing high-quality protein samples [].In particular, plant tissues contain a diverse group of secondary compounds, such as phenolics, lipids, pigments, organic acids, and carbohydrates, which greatly interfere with protein extraction and proteomic analysis [].

Nov 27, 2013· Extracts 8, 38 and 43 demonstrated the lowest IC 50 range, indicating a higher amount of NAI in the given plant extract or the presence of potent NAI component(s) that may be active even at a lower concentration. Extracts were tested at µg/mL concentrations, unlike Zanamivir and Oseltamivir, which were tested at nanomolar levels.

Hauser supplies companies such as Rexall with herbal extracts. Hauser's extraction process is a trade secret, but Lenoble says it "emulates a tea cup"—plant material is put into a big vat with a solvent of ethanol and water, known as a menstruum, to draw out the plant's constituents; Lenoble says their low-heat process combined with the watered-down ethanol makes for a gentler solvent.
