conclusions extracts of the consolida orientalis l., ferula assa-foetida l., coronilla varia l. could be considered as potential sources of anticancer compounds but further studies are necessary for isolation and identification of biologically active substances. results result from the performed assay showed that ethanolic extract of consolida orientalis l., ferula assa-foetida l., coronilla va...

potential of three physically different formulations of biocontrol agent thrichoderma harzianum199 was investigated in a field trial against wheat common bunt caused by tilletia laevis kühn. wheat seeds of cv. chamran were treated with liquid, semi-solid (gel mixed suspension) and solid (talc powder) formulations prior to planting. field practices were performed based on khuzestan wheat plantin...

Two new triterpenoids and a chromone glycoside, namely, 24-epi-cimigenol-3-one (1), foetinoside (2), cimifugin-4'-O-[6″-feruloyl]-β-D-glucopyranoside (3), together with 18 known compounds, were isolated from the rhizomes of Cimicifuga foetida L. collected in Guizhou Province, China. All of the compounds were identified by spectroscopic methods, as well as chemical methods. In the in vitro cytot...

The antioxidant activity of fresh and dried plant extracts of Paederia foetida and Syzygium aqueum were studied using beta-carotene bleaching and the 2,2'-azinobis(3-ethyl-benzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical cation assay. The percentage of antioxidant activity for all extract samples using both assays was between 58 and 80%. The fresh samples of both plants had higher antioxidant ac...

Following a field outbreak of hepatogenous photosensitivity in sheep, an identical condition was reproduced experimentally by dosing 2 sheep with green, homogenized, Nidorella foetida material, collected from the camp where the outbreak occurred. This is a rare, unpalatable, aromatic shrub found in swampy places in the south-western Cape Province. The main lesion was a hepatosis, characterized ...

background: the indispensable use of agrochemicals has created serious threats for earthworms abundance and their population therefore, several earthworm protocols have gained acceptance for use in tests to assess the effects of soil chemicals on soil organisms. dichlorovos, an organophosphorus pesticide, is one of the widely used pesticides in agricultural fields of m.p., central india. the ai...

this study aimed to investigate the effects of tow nanoparticles (nps) on the absorption,accumulation, reproduction of the eisenia fetida. a 4×2×2 factorial experiment in a randomized completeblock design with three replications was conducted. the factors included in the experiment are the content ofnps at four levels (0, 0.4, 0.8, and 1.2gr/kg weight of substrate), the type of nps at two level...
