The objective of the present study is to evaluate anti bacterial activity against Bacillus sp, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus anti tumour activity against Hep 2 cell line with crude metabolites isolated from endophytic fungi residing in leaves of Azadirhacta indica. Endophytic fungi isolated from sterile leaflets of Azadirhacta indica and the isolated respective fungi were gro...

Madhuca longifolia commonly known as Mahua belonging to family Sapotaceae, is an Indian tropical tree, for its sweet flowers which are edible and used by tribals medicinal purpose. The pharmacological activity of the anti- inflammatory, anti-bacterial, anti-oxidant, analgesic, anti-pyretic wound healing properties has no side effect even after consumption larger doses. prevalence throat infecti...

Due to the emerging resistance against classical β-lactam-based antibiotics, a growing number of bacterial infections has become harder to treat. This alarming tendency necessitates continued research on novel antibacterial agents. Many classes of β-lactam antibiotics are characterized by the presence of the 3-aminoazetidin-2-one core, which resembles the natural substrate of the target penicil...

Context One of the important goals of root canal therapy is disinfection aided by irrigation and intracanal medicaments. Commonly used nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents have shown anti-bacterial activity, thus, when used as intracanal medicaments, nonantibiotic agents have the potential to provide anti-inflammatory, local analgesic, and anti-bacterial activity. Aim The aim of this study i...

Four extracts at increasing polarity were prepared from the leaves of Thymus satureioides Coss. (Labiatae) and assayed for the in vivo topical anti-inflammatory effect using the croton oil ear test in mice, and for in vitro both antioxidant (DPPH degrees test) and anti-bacterial (broth microdilution method) activities. The chloroform extract showed a topical anti-inflammatory activity (ID50=282...

the aim of the present study was to isolate cyanobacteria from oil refinery waste water and detection of antagonistic activity of their extracts on four species of pathogenic bacteria. the cyanobacterium was isolated and purified on blue green algae medium number 11 (bg-11) medium. methanol and water extracts prepared from the cultured cyanobacterium after 45 days growth on bg-11 medium. the bi...

gas chromatography (gc) and gas chromatography mass spectrometry (gc-ms) were employed to determine the chemical composition of essential oil obtained from dry fruits of carum copticum. thymol (36.7%), -terpinene (36.5%) and -cymene (21.1%) were found to be the major constituents of the oil. the anti-bacterial activities of the oil were mainly investigated against food poisoning bacteria (sal...

objective(s): juglone is isolated from many species of the juglandaceae family and used as an anti-viral, anti-bacterial, and anti-tumor therapeutic. here, we evaluated juglone-induced antitumor effect in ovarian cancer skov3 cells. materials and methods: mtt assay was performed to examine juglone anti-proliferative effect. cell cycle and apoptosis were studied using flow cytometry in juglone-tr...

objective: this study investigated the antibacterial properties of an ion-releasing resin composite (degufill), a hybrid resin composite (inten-s), a compomer (compoglass f) and a resin-modified glass ionomer (vitremer) against streptococcus mutans. materials and methods: the bacteria were derived from the dental plaque and cultured on blood agar plates. eppendorf tubes were filled by unset res...
