The methanol extract of Cassia fistula seeds was investigated for potential antimicrobial activity against medically important bacterial, yeast and fungal strains. The antimicrobial activity was determined in methanol extract using the disk diffusion technique and the broth dilution method. The extract was effective on tested microorganism and the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values w...

In the present scenario of increasing environmental pollution globally, health of people living in developed as well as developing countries is always at risk giving rise to chronic and infectious diseases alarmingly. Even, the number of multi-drug resistant microbial strains and the appearance of strains with reduced susceptibility to antibiotics are continuously increasing which is a big thre...

This study showed the comparison between Ocimum basilicum and Cassia fistula (leaves and branch) aqueous extracts for their ability to detoxify of aflatoxins B1 and B2 (AFB1; 100 μg L(-1) and AFB2; 50 μg L(-1)) by In Vitro assays and decontamination studies. Results indicated that O. basilicum leaves extract was found to be highly significant (P < 0.05) in degrading AFB1 and AFB2, i.e., 90.4 an...

This study was intentional to assess the antioxidant activity of drugs viz hydro alcohol stem extract of Cassia fistula Linn. (Family: Leguminosae) is also known as Aragvadha. The primary Phytochemical study and in vitro antioxidant study was performed on hydro alcoholic extract of shade dried stem. Modern Phytochemical screening of the plant has shown the presence of phenolic compounds, fatty ...

background &amp; objectives: the present investigation was designed to evaluate the post-treatment properties of the hydroalcoholic fruit extract of cassia fistula (golden shower tree) in male albino mice. materials &amp; methods: biomarkers and histological liver and kidney alterations, aspartate aminotransferase (ast), alanine aminotransferase (alt), alkaline phosphatase (alp), γ-glutamyl tra...

Diethylnitrosamine (DEN), found in many commonly consumed foods, is widely reported to induce cancer in animals and humans. The aim of the present study was to investigate the hepatoprotective and antioxidant activities of the leaf extract of the medicinal plant Cassia fistula Linn. against diethylnitrosamine induced liver injury in ethanol pretreated rats. Albino Wistar rats, pretreated with e...
