In the present study, we have phytochemically characterized 5 different abundant Aloe species, including Aloe vera (L.) Burm.f., using silylation followed by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry technique and compared the data using multivariate statistical analysis. The results demonstrated clear distinction of the overall phytochemical profile of A vera, highlighted by its divergent spatial a...

Background and objectives: Oxidative stress is implicated in the neuronal damage associated with Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, Huntington’s disease, amyotropic lateral sclerosis and cerebral ischemic stroke. The present work was designed to establish the neuroprotective effects of Salvia aristata extract on H2O2-induced apoptosis in human dopaminergic ...

Abstract A validated UHPLC-PDA with an ESI-MS/MS method has been developed for simultaneous estimation of six bioactive alkaloids (magnoflorine, berbamine, columbamine, jatrorrhizine, palmatine and berberine) in the different extracts roots Berberis aristata DC (Family:Berberdiaceae). It is important medicinal herb native to Northern Himalaya commonly known as ‘daruharidra’, ‘daruhaldi’, ‘India...

Partial cambial mortality is a growth form that is characteristic of Pinus aristata trees. To better elucidate their cambial death pattern, tree size and aspect of cambial death data were gathered from three Pinus aristata forests in central Colorado, USA. Stripping frequency tended to be higher for larger diameter classes. Partial cambial mortality exhibits significant directionality within ea...

Berberine, Rubiadin and 3-O-acetyl-11-keto-β-boswellic acid (AKBA) are reported mainly for their anti-inflammatory activity among other uses like antidiarrheal, anti-fungal, antitumor, anti-oxidant, anti-diabetic immunomodulation. The polyherbal gel formulation contains hydrolalcoholic extracts of Berberis aristata DC., Rubia cordifolia L., Boswellia serrata Roxb. And it is claimed anti-bacteri...
