The experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of Cinnamomum zeylanicum essential oil on antioxidant status of chickens. Thirty-two female Ross 308 hybrid broilers were fed one of four diets supplemented with 0%, 0.1%, 0.05% and 0.025% of essential oil for 38 days. Blood, liver, kidney and duodenal epithelium were collected for the subsequent evaluation of antioxidant status. Feeding o...

The antioxidants in food materials have recently attracted researchers' attention because many reports have shown that the oxidative stress is closely related to the aging process of the cells and acts as a trigger to various diseases including cancer. Since reactive oxygen species (ROS) is involved in initiating and promoting several diseases such as cancer and cardiovascular events, this stud...

This study emphasizes detailed information of the plant, Cinnamomum tamala, (Buch.-Ham.) Nees & Eberm (Lauraceae) which includes habitat, description, medicinal uses, phytochemistry, pharmacological profile and safety aspects. The etymology is derived from the Greek word ‘kinnamomon’ (meaning spice). The Greeks borrowed the word from the Phoenicians, indicating that they traded with the East fr...

Objective: GABAergic system is a target for various groups of medications including sedatives, anxiolytics, muscle relaxants, antidepressants and antiepileptics. Several foods or food ingredients are able to affect the by inhibition γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) degrading enzymes GABA-transaminase succinate semialdehyde dehydrogenase. The purpose this study investigate inhibitory effects tea (Came...

Here, we have used the green method for synthesis of silver and gold nanoparticles. In the present study the silver (Ag) and gold (Au) nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized by using the aqueous bark extract of Indian spice dalchini (Cinnamomum zeylanicum) (C. zyelanicum or C. verum J. Presl). Additionally, we have used these synthesized nanoparticles for mosquito control. The larvicidal activity...
