The antibacterial effect of Lippia sidoides (rosemary pepper) essential oil was tested against the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli isolated from homemade Minas cheese produced in Brazil. The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) determined in the Dilution Test was 13 L oil mL-1 for both bacteria, which characterizes inhibitory action in broth for a 24hour interaction perio...

Lemon oils are amongst the highest volume and most frequently traded of flavor fragrance essential oils. Citronellal citral considered key components responsible for lemon note with (neral + geranial) preferred. Of myriad sources citral, Australian myrtaceous tree, Myrtle, Backhousia citriodora F. Muell. (Myrtaceae), is superior. This review examines history, natural occurrence, cultivation, ta...

Phytogenic feed additives are used in animal feeding to improve livestock performance. The aim of this study was to determine whether a dietary plant extract from Lippia citriodora, standardized for verbascoside, can modify various immunological, oxidative, and biochemical serum parameters in weaned piglets. A total of 144 piglets, half female and half barrows (7.99 ± 1.40 kg BW), were allocate...

Phytotherapy may be an alternative strategy for controlling gastrointestinal parasites. This study evaluated the anthelmintic efficacy of Eucalyptus citriodora essential oil (EcEO). The in vitro effects of EcEO were determined through testing the inhibition of egg hatching and larval development of Haemonchus contortus. EcEO was subjected to acute toxicity testing on mice, orally and intraperit...

Kraft pulp produced from juvenile and mature wood from thirty-two-yearold Corymbia citriodora trees was evaluated. The stem was subdivided into regions of juvenile and mature wood, and then it was transformed into chips. These materials were then cooked in the Laboratory of Pulp and Paper at São Paulo State University (UNESP, Botucatu, SP, Brazil) and the physico-mechanical properties of the pu...

Naira notes are means of exchange for goods and services that may act as fomites in the transmission pathogens. This study determined identities microorganisms isolated from their susceptibilities to antibiotics volatile oils Ocimum gratissimum, Cymbopogon citratus Eucalyptus citriodora. Fifteen (₦50-₦500) obtained two Ilorin markets were soaked sterile water loopful each sample was inoculated ...

The MEK5-ERK5 pathway is a mammalian mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase cascade that is not well studied compared to other MAP kinase cascades. Two independent studies by Al-Ejeh et al. and Ortiz-Ruiz et al. published in Oncotarget last year concluded that ERK5 is an attractive target in triple negative breast cancer. In this perspective, we briefly describe the findings of these studies an...
