AIM The aim of this study was to analyze the ethyl acetate extract of Nerium indicum (NIE) flower for its antioxidant effect in anxious Sprague-Dawley rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS Animals were divided into six groups (n = 6) and treated with 200 mg/kg and 400 mg/kg p.o. of NIE for 21 days to assess its preventive and curative effects. Anxiety was induced by isolating animals socially for 21 da...

Oleander (Nerium oleander L.) is a popular woody ornamental plant, often used for decorating public areas, terraces and gardens. Many diseases may decrease in the value of these plantings. Between 2018 2020, plant pathogenic bacteria were examined, many samples infected plants collected from different sites Hungary. Two non-pigmented Serratia marcescens isolates identified by classical molecula...

The present work reports acid blue 80 (AB80) adsorption performances on the activated carbon prepared from Nerium oleander fruits (NAC). Langmuir isotherm model and pseudo second order were determined to be best fitting models for AB80 NAC, its maximum capacities calculated 88.03, 102.04, 113.96 mg g-1 at 25, 35, 45 °C, respectively. Also, efficiency of increased as pH decreased. While rate was...

electrophoresis of proteins, especially seed proteins, and karyological studies are useful techniques for determining species and solving the problems of modern taxonomy. the present study was carried out on two species of the apocynaceae family, rhazya stricta decasine and nerium 01eancder.l. seed samples of these two genera were taken from the south-east of iran and sds-page analysis of their...

plants are the most common bioindicatorsused in air quality biomonitoring studies because they are immobile and they have more sensitive to the most prevalent air pollutants than humans and animals. to identify the concentrations and sources of heavy metals in ornamental plants of isfahan landscape, samples of leaves and soil around pinuseldarica and nerium oleander were collected at different ...

Air dried flowers of Nerium oleander and Tecoma stans have been investigated for their polyphenolics. The pigments have been found to myricetin and rutin respectively which were characterized by chromatography and spectral studies. These pigments were screened for their antibacterial and antifungal activity against different organisms. It was ascertained that the ethyl acetate fractions of flow...
