Methanol 70% extract of Bauhinia racemosa aerial parts was tested for antimicrobial activity against different bacterial and fungal strains and for antioxidant activity and also total content of polyphenols with phytochemical analysis of the extract was determined. The results have showed that the extract has a significant antimicrobial activity, it inhibited the growth of Bacillus subtilis and...

The genomic DNA polymorphism and phytochemical variation of Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni was investigated by RAPD-PCR and HPLC analysis. For initial PCR screening, about hundred oligo-nucleotide primers were used to amplify the genomic DNA from three accessions of S. rebaudiana (L1 to L3). The concentration of stevioside content was quantified by using HPLC analysis. A total of 9 primers were fina...
