(In vitro culture of Phyllanthus stipulatus (Euphorbiaceae)). An efficient micropropagation protocol was developed for the medicinal plant Phyllanthus stipulatus (Euphorbiaceae) using nodal segments for axillary shoot proliferation. Maximum multiplication rates (8-9 shoots per explant) was achieved on MS media supplemented with either 2.5-5.0 μM IBA. The best basal media for axillary shoot prol...

BACKGROUND Infectious diseases caused by multiresistant microbial strains are on the increase. Fighting these diseases with natural products may be more efficacious. The aim of this study was to investigate the in vitro antimicrobial activity of methanolic, ethylacetate (EtOAc) and hexanic fractions of five Cameroonian medicinal plants (Piptadeniastum africana, Cissus aralioides, Hileria latifo...

Comparison of the Effect Cydonia oblonga and Phyllanthus Emblica on Gastric Residual Volume Pulmonary Aspiration in Patients under Mechanical Ventilation Mousavi Hospital ICU Zanjan 2020

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of aqueous extracts of dried Phyllanthus niruri L. (stonebreaker) leaves on Allium cepa L. root meristem cells at four concentrations, 0.02 (usual concentration), 0.04, 0.06 and 0.08mg/mL and exposure times of 24 and 48 hours. For each concentration we used a group of five onion bulbs that were first embedded in distilled water and then transferred to th...

BACKGROUND Phyllanthus debilis (Elapitawakka) is a medicinal plant used in traditional systems of medicine in Sri Lanka. Present study was carried out to evaluate in-vitro anti-oxidant and anti-proliferative activity of the water extracts of aerial parts (AP) and roots (RP) of P.debilis plant and the role of polyphenolic compounds in view of its medicinal use. METHOD Total polyphenols, flavon...

Medicinal plants are resources of new drugs. Phyllanthus niruri L.(Euphorbiaceae) is a widespread tropical herb. The phytochemical screening and quantification of primary metabolites in the plants collected from three geographical locations. Maximum extractive value (3.951%) was found in water extract among test solvents. All metabolites were qualitatively present in water and ethanolic extracts.

BACKGROUND Phyllanthus amarus (Schum & Thonn), a plant belonging to the family of Euphorbiaceae is used in Ivorian traditional medicine to treat cardiovascular disorders such as hypertension. However, although this plant has been described as a diuretic agent, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate the mechanism action of diuretic ef...

BACKGROUND Roots and leaves of the Cermela Hutan (Phyllanthus gomphocarpus Hook. F) plant were studied to determine antioxidant activity, phytochemical compounds, proportion of carbohydrate, crude protein, moisture, ash, fat, total phenolic content (TPC), and total flavonoid content (TFC). MATERIAL/METHODS Ten percent (10%) aqueous extract from both Phyllanthus gomphocarpus roots (PGR) and le...
