Physicochemical properties of 10 rice advanced breeding lines (BC2F7) across 3 environments in Malaysia were evaluated. Highly significant G × E interactions for all measured quality traits were detected using ANOVA, and the additive main effect and multiplicative interaction (AMMI) statistical model was applied to analyze them. The results showed that the grain quality parameters had large gen...

Bcakground: Extracts obtained from natural sources such as plants are of immense importance for humans. Methods: Therefore this study was conducted to obtain essential oil from the seeds of T. ammi by conventional and non-conventional methods. Hydrodistillation (HD), Solvent Extraction (SE), Ultrasonication (US), and Supercritical Carbon-dioxide (SC-CO₂) extraction techniques were used to extra...

To my mother, Ammi. "Cling to her feet, because paradise is there" (Prophet Muhammad).

Background and objectives: Plant essential oils are sometimes considered for use as antimicrobial agents in foods and medicines and they could be combined with other antimicrobial agents to strengthen the effect and/or reduce the required dose. This study was conducted to determine the chemical composition of the Ocimum basilicum, Salvia officinalis and Trachyspermum ammi essential oils and eva...

Phenotypic stability of 12 rice genotypes for plant height, days to maturity and yield were assessed at five different locations through regression and deviation from regression using Additive Main Effect and Multiplicative Interaction (AMMI) model. The result showed highly significant genotypic and G x E interaction. The G x E interaction influenced the relative ranking of the genotypes tested...

Karpoordi Taila is a medicated oil used in Ayurvedic system of Medicine for 'Vaathavikaram'. The drugs used in karpoorradi Taila are trachysperum ammi (Linn) Sprague (Ayamodakam) and Cinnammomum camphora (Linn) Nees and Eberm (Karpooram). The phyusico chemical standards and the Thin Layer chromatographic standards presented in this paper can be used as finger print standards for karpporadi Taila.

objectives: the purpose of this study was to assay the antifungal activity of selected essential oils obtained from plants against both fluconazole (flu)-resistant and flu-susceptible c. albicans strains isolated from hiv positive patients with oropharyngeal candidiasis (opc). materials and methods: the essential oils were obtained by hydrodistillation method from myrtus communis (my. communis)...

Objective: Reactive oxygen species and free radicals generate oxidative stress in the living cells associated with number of chronic diseases. Current research is directed towards finding naturally occurring antioxidants of plant origin. Hence, this study was aimed to determine phytochemical analysis, antioxidant and free radical scavenging potential of ethanolic seed extract of Trachyspermum a...

Individuals with lymphatic filariasis (LF) shows elevated levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, altered expressions of inflammatory genes and are prone to secondary bacterial infection. Also markers of liver dysfunction were reported to be high with increased filarial infection. Acetaminophen (Paracetamol), an anti-pyretic drug was prescribed to LF individuals along with Diethylcarbamazine and ...
