The present study was aimed to document detailed ethnopharmacological knowledge of medicinal plants against livestock infections of an unexplored remote region of Pakistan. Semistructured questionnaires were used for data collection. Total 43 plants belonging to 26 families were found to be used in ethnoveterinary practices. Seeds (29%) were found to be the most frequent plant part used followe...

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to assay the antifungal activity of selected essential oils obtained from plants against both fluconazole (FLU)-resistant and FLU-susceptible C. albicans strains isolated from HIV positive patients with oropharyngeal candidiasis (OPC). Materials and Methods: The essential oils were obtained by hydrodistillation method from Myrtus communis (My. communis)...

Synaptic mutants are the subject of a special concern to cytologists and geneticists as they hold the variability in their recombination pattern. Seeds of Trachyspermum ammi (L.) Sprague (ajwain) were treated with Ethyl Methane Sulphonate (EMS) solution at 3 different concentrations viz. 0.1%, 0.3% and 0.5% for 5 h, prepared in potassium phosphate buffer with 7.0 pH. During meiotic observation ...

Bio-chemical reduction method was employed to synthesise the silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) by aging the mixture of the aqueous extract of the Trachyspermum Ammi (TA, Ajwain) seeds and AgNO3 solution at different time interval. Reaction time of AgNO3 and TA could accelerate the reduction rate of Ag and affect AgNPs size and concentration of NPs. X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies confirms the forma...

An experiment was conducted during late kharif season of 2019-20 at College Horticulture, Rajendranagar, Hyderabad, to find out the influence integrated nutrient management and plant geometry on uptake ajowan (Trachyspermum ammi L. Sprague) in Southern zone Telangana. The laid a factorial randomized block design with 12 treatments, replicated thrice. treatments include four Integrated levels (I...

In this study, an attempt has been made to synthesize nanoemulsions using Trachyspermum ammi tincture. The nanoemulsion specifications are characterized by TEM, DLS, and zeta potential. anti-tumour cell toxicity effects of the biosynthesized evaluated chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) MTT assays, respectively. For CAM test, length number blood vessels around gelatine sponge. According DLS analysis...

Natural compounds including essential oils (EOs) are used to inhibit the pathogenic bacterial growth in foods. The objective of this study was to investigate the combined effect of Trachyspermum ammi EO and propolis ethanolic extract (PEE) on some food pathogenic bacteria. In this study, the effect of T. ammi EO and PEE at different concentrations, individually and in combinat...

Rice moth Corcyra cephalonica (Stainton) is a serious pest on storage commodities. The management of C. relies the use chemical pesticides. Insecticide resistance and its effect nontarget demand for compounds that are clean, green. Essential oils (EOs) viz., Trachyspermum ammi (Ajowan), Piper betle (betel), Eucalyptus citriodora (citridora), Cymbopogan nardus (citronella), Pelargonium graveolen...
