Bu çalışma kapsamında nar (Punica granatum L.) çiçeğinden farklı parametreler altında elde edilen ekstraktların antioksidan aktiviteleri ve toplam fenolik içerikleri üzerine ekstraksiyon koşullarının etkisi incelenmiştir. Nar çiçeklerinden su etanol kullanılarak 40-60 °C sıcaklık dk süre ile ekstraktlar edilmiş liyofilize edilerek kurutulmuştur. Liyofilize 2,2-difenil-1-pikrilhidrazil (DPPH) ra...

Background & Aim: This study evaluated prevention effect of hydro-alcoholic extract of punica granatum Peel ethylene glycol-induced Nephrolithiasis in wistar rats. Experimental: 20 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 4 equal groups. Group I animals served as normal control (A) and received distilled water for 28 days. Group II to IV animals received 1% v/v ethylene glycol (EG) in disti...

The study was to investigate the Antibacterial Activity of Some Medicinal Plants used against UTI Causing Pathogens. Bacteria were isolated from the UTI infected patients and characterized by using microscopic, staining, morphological and biochemical methods. The Ethanolic Extracts from plants were prepared and then used to check their antibacterial activity against the bacteria isolated from U...

Two new beta-sitosterol esters have been isolated from the flowers of Punica granatum Linn. (Punicaceae) along with the known compounds n-tricosane (3), n-heptacosanyl n-hexanoate (4), olean-5,12-dien-3beta-ol-28-oic acid (5), and olean-12-en-3beta-ol-28-oic acid (6). The structures of the new phytosterols have been elucidated as stigmast-5-en-3beta-ol-3beta-dodecanoate (beta-sitosterol laurate...

The misuse of antibiotics has contributed to widespread development of antimicrobial resistance among clinically significant bacterial species. Alternative approaches other than those using antibiotics are needed in the fight against infectious diseases. Quorum sensing (QS) is an intercellular signaling and gene regulatory mechanism, which is used by a number of opportunistic pathogenic bacteri...
