Sianida merupakan senyawa anti nutrisi yang banyak terkandung pada beberapa jenis tumbuhan, seperti ketela pohon, gadung, rebung, dan lain-lain. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui uji organoleptik pemanfaatan garam abu dapur terhadap detoksifikasi umbi gadung (Dioscorea Hispida Dennst) dalam pembuatan tepung. Jenis digunakan adalah desain eksperimental menggunakan Organoleptik pengujian bah...

Hispidacine, an 8,4'-oxyneolignan featuring incorporation of an unusual 2-hydroxyethylamine moiety at C-7, and hispiloscine, a phenanthroindolizidine alkaloid, were isolated from the stem-bark and leaves of the Malaysian Ficus hispida Linn. Their structures were established by spectroscopic analysis. Hispidacine induced a moderate vasorelaxant activity in rat isolated aorta, while hispiloscine ...

Cadmium concentrations in kidneys from ringed seals (Phoca hispida) from North West Greenland (Qaanaaq) are high. Concentrations range at level known to induce renal toxic effects (mainly tubulopathy) and demineralisation (osteopenia) of the skeletal system (Fanconi’s Syndrome) in humans as well as laboratory mammals. We have studied possible cadmium induced histopathological changes in the kid...

A sulphydryl plant protease present in the latex of Ficus hispida Linn affects hatematological values in mice. The isolated protease was found to increase clotting time and erythrocyte sedimentation rate while haemoglobin conten, RBC count and WBC count were decreased in a dose dependent manner. Ointment containing 1.0% (w/w) hispidain in washable ointment base showed good wound healing propert...

Illustrated redescription of a colourful bug Urolabida histrionica (Westwood 1837), along with comments on bionomics, is presented for the first time from an Indian population. The host plant this was identified as Ficus hispida L. f. (Moraceae).

Modern pollen records have been used to successfully distinguish between specific prairie types in North America. Whether the pollen records can be used to detect the occurrence of Eurasian steppe, or even to further delimit various steppe types was until now unclear. Here we characterized modern pollen assemblages of meadow steppe, typical steppe and desert steppe from eastern Eurasia along an...

Study area was selected from Talou farm to Chahjam Kavir in Damghan. Several plant types were distinguished in mentioned site. The types were Artemisia herba alba-Pteropyrum olivieri, Anabasis aphyllaLycium depressum, Tamarix. spp.-Halocnemum strobilaceum, Ha. strobilaceum Halostachys bellangeriana, Ha. strobilaceum-Limonium iranicum. In each plant type, three dominant plant species were select...
