The present study introduces an effective and rapid method for isolation of antifungal compound ricinine from Ricinus communis (L.). In this respect, the tender leaves R. were extracted using methanol tested activity against a panel dermatophytes plant pathogenic fungi. Primarily, total extract exhibited broad-spectrum with zones inhibition ranging 12 ± 1.00 to 18.66 1.52 mm. Further, investiga...

A simple high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) method for screening and quantification of ricinine in feeds is established for use in feed quality control. Ricinine is extracted from the sample with methanol. The sample extract is directly used for screening with LC-MS and is cleaned up using solid-phase extraction for quantification w...

seeds of the castor bean plant ricinuscommunis l (cb) contain ricin toxin (rt), one of the most poisonous naturally-occurring substances known. ricin toxin, a water-soluble glycoprotein that does not partition into the oil extract, is a ribosome-inactivating toxin composed of two chains, labeled a and b. severity of the toxicity varies depending on the route of exposure to the toxin. inhalation...
