The aqueous extract from the bark of Punica granatum L. was invested to generate CuO nanoparticles CuSO4 using a green, economical, ecological, and clean method. synthesized were characterized successfully used as adsorbents for methyl green retention an absorptive capacity amounting 28.7 mg g?1. Methyl equilibrium adsorption data correlated Langmuir model following pseudo-second order kinetics...

use of herbal extracts and essences as natural antibacterial compounds has become increasingly popular for the control of oral infectious diseases. therefore, finding natural antimicrobial products with the lowest side effects seems necessary. the present study sought to assess the effect of punica granatum l. water extract on five oral bacteria and bacterial biofilm formation on orthodontic wi...

The physical and chemical characteristics of five pomegranate cultivars (Mridula, Ganesh, White muscut, G-137 Jalor seedless) were examined in the present investigation. Physical properties different determined such as major diameter (85.05 to 91.62 mm), intermediate (76.85 87.83 minor (79.86 90.01 sphericity (0.903 0.937), fruit weight (294.4 404.14 g), volume (289 387 mL), number arils per fr...

Pomegranate (Punica granatum L.) is known for its nutritional, medicinal, and ornamental importance. It is conventionally propagated by hardwood and softwood cuttings, but about 1 yr is needed before the rooted cuttings can be transplanted to the field. Propagation by seed is undesirable as populations are heterozygous and seed propagation leads to wide variations in tree and fruit characterist...

Aims: In our previous studies, we showed the inhibitory effects of Punica granatum L. flower and Rhus coriaria L. fruit water extracts on dental plaque accumulation by several bacteria, especially Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans), on orthodontic wire by in vitro assays. In this study, the anti-cariogenic properties of the extracts were evaluated by assessing their effects on expression of glyco...
