Antifilarial Activity of Eucalyptus globulus Labill. Leaves Against Brugia malayi

The present study is aimed to evaluate the antifilarial activity of Eucalyptus globules Labill. (Myrtaceae) against human lymphatic filarial parasite Brugia malayi in vitro and in vivo. The ethanolic extract of the leaves was tested in vitro on adult worms and microfilariae (mf) of B. malayi and the active sample was further evaluated in vivo in B. malayi intraperitoneally (i.p.) transplanted i...

Eucalyptus Globulus

"The authentic facts, relating to the remarkable power of the Eucalyptus Globulus in drjing marsh lands and rendering them healthy, are such as to deserve serious and general attention. It appears to be certain that where the Eucalyptus prospers intermittent fever disappears. This tree grows with incredible rapidity, absorbs ten times its own weight of water in twentyfour hours, and spreads thr...

Photosynthetic temperature responses of Eucalyptus globulus an

temperature of 4-year-old Eucalyptus globulus Labill. and E. nitens (Deane and Maiden) Maiden trees were measured between 10 and 35 °C at approximately monthly intervals from early spring to midwinter. The photosynthetic temperature optimum of recently expanded leaves in the sun canopy was linearly related to the average temperature of the preceding week during the 9-month measurement period. T...

Effects of Essential Oils from Eucalyptus globulus Leaves on Soil Organisms Involved in Leaf Degradation

The replacement of native Portuguese forests by Eucalyptus globulus is often associated with deleterious effects on terrestrial and aquatic communities. Several studies have suggested that such a phenomenon is linked with the leaf essential oils released into the environment during the Eucalyptus leaf degradation process. However, to date, the way these compounds affect leaf degradation in terr...
