Phytotoxic, insecticidal and leishmanicidal activities of aerial parts of Polygonatum verticillatum
The aim of the present study was to explore the aerial parts of the Polygonatum verticillatum for various biological activities such as phytotoxic, insecticidal and leishmanicidal properties. Outstanding phytotoxicity was observed for the crude extract and its subsequent solvent fractions against Lemna acquinoctialis Welv at tested doses of 5, 50 and 500 μg/ml. Complete growth inhibition (100%)...
متن کاملAntinociceptive activity of aerial parts of Polygonatum verticillatum: attenuation of both peripheral and central pain mediators.
Polygonatum verticillatum All. is used traditionally as an analgesic and plant diuretic. The methanol extract of aerial parts of Polygonatum verticillatum (PA) was assessed in various experimental paradigms. The pain threshold in the form of abdominal constriction induced by acetic acid was significantly (p < 0.01) inhibited by PA at test doses (50, 100 and 200 mg/kg). In the formalin test, PA ...
متن کاملAntimalarial and Free Radical Scavenging Activities of Aerial Parts of Polygonatum Verticillatum (l.) All. and Identification of Chemical Constituents by Gc-ms
The present study was aimed to evaluate the aerial parts of Polygonatum verticillatum (L.) All. for its antimalarial and antioxidant activity. In vitro antimalarial activity was carried out against chloroquine resistant Plasmodium falciparum while free radical scavenging assay was performed against DPPH. Chemical identification of constituents was carried out on GC MS spectrometry. The crude ex...
متن کاملPhytotoxic, cytotoxic and insecticidal activities of Calendula arvensis L
Plants are the natural factories for the synthesis of variety of bioactive compounds. This diverse chemical setup of the plants speaks their important role as biomedicine. These biomolecules are often toxic to both plants and animals. The methanolic extract of Calendula arvensis was screened for its toxic potential against Lemna minor, Artimia salina (Brine shrimps) larvae and some important gr...
متن کاملStudies on tracheorelaxant and anti-inflammatory activities of rhizomes of Polygonatum verticillatum
BACKGROUND The present study describes the tracheorelaxant and anti-inflammatory effects of Polygonatum verticillatum which may support its medicinal use in hyperactive airway complaints and inflammatory disorders. METHODS The tracheorelaxant activity of crude extract of the rhizomes of P. verticillatum (PR) was assessed in isolated guinea-pig tracheal tissues immersed in tissue organ bath fi...
