General toxicity, antiproliferative, antibacterial and antioxidant activities of Caulerpa peltata J.V.Lamouroux (Caulerpaceae) collected from Oman Sea were investigated. Dried, ground alga was Soxhlet-extracted with hexane, dichloromethane and methanol successively. The methanol extract was subjected to vacuum liquid chromatography (VLC) fractionation on silica gel using a step gradient of diff...

In the present study, the safety and toxicity of Dendrophthoe pentandra (DP) extracted using ethyl acetate were investigated. DP ethyl acetate (DPEA) extract was screened for its phytochemical constituents using standard procedure and active compounds present in DPEA extract were determined using gas chromatographymass spectrometry (GC-MS), the toxicity of DPEA extract was investigated using br...

Bacillus cereus G9241, the causative agent of anthrax-like disease, harbors virulence plasmids encoding anthrax toxins as well as hyaluronic acid (HA) and B. cereus exopolysaccharide (BPS) capsules. B. cereus G9241 also harbors S-layer genes, including homologs of Bacillus anthracis surface array protein (Sap), extractable antigen 1 (EA1), and the S-layer-associated proteins (BSLs). In B. anthr...

The current study evaluated the general toxicity, antioxidant, antimicrobial, and cytotoxic activity of extracts obtained from the rhizomes of Eremostachys azerbaijanica (Labiatae) as well as analyzed the potent extracts using GC-MS. Extracts of E. azerbaijanica in n-hexane, dichloromethane (DCM) and methanol (MeOH) were prepared using a Soxhlet apparatus. The antioxidant activity of the extrac...

Bacteria form a biofilm that attaches the microbial population to solid surface, thus acting as barrier protect external stresses from bacterial community. In food industry, biofilms are believed be responsible for food-borne diseases and spoilages. This research was conducted characterize anti-quorum sensing (QS), anti-biofilm activity of crude extract, supernatant Actinobacteria isolates agai...

In the human oral cavity, Streptococcus mutans is often observed and a major contributor to tooth decay. Increased S. levels may be linked progressively more severe forms of periodontal disease because root exposure in people with periodontitis increases caries rates. Hence, new potential antibacterial compound needs searched combat this pathogenic bacterium. The butterfly pea, or Clitoria tern...

Endothelial dysfunction is the basis of physiopathological mechanisms vascular diseases. In addition to therapeutic activity plant extracts, cytotoxicity significant. This research evaluates three vegetal extracts (Calendulae flos extract-CE, Ginkgo bilobae folium extract-GE, and Sophorae extract-SE). vitro evaluation was performed using an endothelial cell line model (Human Pulmonary Artery Ce...
