this study investigated the effects of the dietary supplementation of zizyphus mauritianaleaf meal (zlm) on the performance of yankasa lambs. twenty five lambs aged between 6 and 8 months were randomly divided into five groups of five animals each in a completely randomized design to receive supplementary diets containing 0, 10, 20, 30 and 40% zlm as replacement for cotton seed cake in concentr...

Description of the root of the plant, Zizyphus mauritiana Linn. the microscopical characters of the powdered root, its behavior on treatment with different chemical reagents, and the fluorescence character under ultraviolet light after treatment were studied to fix some pharmacognostical parameters. Preliminary phytochemical screening on the various extracts of the root of the plant was also pe...

mucoadhesive polymers that bind to the gastric mucin or epithelial cell surface are useful in drug delivery for the purpose of increasing the intimacy and duration of contact of drug with the absorbing membrane. several synthetic polymers are in use for this purpose. since the biodegradability of the synthetic polymers are questionable, in this investigation, an oral mucoadhesive controlled del...

In the present study, antioxidant activities of the two varieties of fruits of Zizyphus mauritiana (Boroi) were investigated. Ethanolic extracts of fruits powder were characterized by the method described by Hatano et al. [1] in which stable 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical solution were used. In the present investigation, it is found that all of the fruit extracts have remark...

Monofloral Iranian honeys from eight floral sources were analyzed to determine their anti-HIV-1 activities as well as their effects on lymphocyte proliferation. The Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs) used in this study were prepared from five healthy volunteers who were seronegative for HIV, HCV, HBV and TB. The anti-HIV-1 activity of eight different honeys was performed by quantitative...

Two rapid and simple HPLC methods with UV detector to determine three main compounds (magnoflorine, spinosin and 6'''-feruloyl spinosin) and evaporative light scattering detector (ELSD) to determine jujuboside A were developed for the chemical analyses of Zizyphi Semen. Magnoflorine, spinosin, and 6'''-feruloyl spinosin were separated with an YMC J'sphere ODS-H80 column (250 mm × 4.6 mm, 4 μm) ...

background: synthetic radio-protective agents like aminothiols are toxic and fda approved agent amifostine is no exception. some ayurvedic herbs have shown radioprotective potential. this study was carried out to test and compare the radioprotective potential of curcuma longa (cl) tinospora cordifolia (tc), zizyphus mauritiana (zm) and ocimum sanctum (os) against 2gy gamma irradiation in swiss ...
