Propolis is a natural mixture of compounds produced by various bee species, including stingless bees. This compound has been shown to exhibit antioxidant, antiproliferative, and antitumor activities. The present study aimed to determine the chemical constituents as well as the antioxidant, cytotoxic, and toxic activities of ethanol extracts of propolis obtained from the stingless bees Scaptotri...

The relation of the lethal toxin to the hemolysin produced by Clostridium septicum, strain 44, has been investigated. The following results suggest that the hemolytic and lethal actions of crude toxin are functions of a single substance or that they are functions of two substances which have similar physical, chemical, and antigenic properties. (1) Within the limits of experimental error, the l...

Besides the true fats (compounds of glycerol and fatty acids) other substances closely related to fats are utilized in the animal economy. Some of t.hese, including cholesterol, are essential constituents of every living cell. Cholesterol exists in the body tissues in both a free condition and a combined form as esters of higher fatty acids; such as palmitic, oleic, and stearic. Cholesterol in ...

This paper describes in detail proximate composition, nutritional profile, phytochemical constituents, antioxidant activities, antimicrobial potential, and antihemolytic activity (towards human erythrocytes) of various fractions of wild Ganoderma lucidum. Proximate analysis established that wild G. lucidum comprises about 87.02±5.45% of moisture, and the remaining part is a rich source of prote...
