The aim of this study is to evaluate the inhibition of oxidative stress related enzymes of aqueous acetone extracts, as well as antibacterial activity from five Indigofera species well-known medicinal plant from Burkina. Also are investigated in this study the potential contribution of tannins and of flavonol in these activities Particularly, aqueous acetone extracts were investigated for their...

This study was conducted to appraise the protective effect of Indigofera oblongifolia leaf extract on lead acetate (PbAc)-induced nephrotoxicity in rats. PbAc was intraperitoneally injected at a dose of 20 mg/kg body weight for 5 days, either alone or together with the methanol extract of I. oblongifolia (100 mg/kg). Kidney lead (Pb) concentration; oxidative stress markers including lipid perox...

Biofilm formation and function was studied in mixed culture using 20 bacterial strains isolated from a karst aquifer. When co-cultured in a glucose-limited chemostat, Vogesella indigofera and Pseudomonas putida were the dominant planktonic and biofilm organisms respectively. Biofilm formation and resistance to the iodine disinfectant betadine were then studied with monoculture and binary cultur...
