Worldwide, human beings have traditionally employed many folkloric herbal resources as complementary and alternative remedies, these remedies played a pivotal role in modern medicines for decades, scientists used them to develop drugs. We studied the effects of employing solvents with varying polarity on yields phytochemical components extracted from plant Rhazya stricta. chloroform-methanol (1:1), methanol, ethanol, diethyl ether, ethyl acetate extraction solvents. The results showed that...
Abstract The latest coronavirus pandemic (SARS-CoV-2) poses an exceptional threat to human health and society worldwide. spike (S) protein, which is required for viral–host cell penetration, might be considered a promising suitable target treatment. In this study, we utilized the nonalkaloid fraction of medicinal plant Rhazya stricta computationally investigate its antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2. Molecular docking molecular dynamics simulations were main tools used examine binding...
The emergence of superbugs and resistant pathogens poses a challenge in scientific medical research as they threaten public health worldwide. Many herbal natural products currently used therapies have been suggested to exert antimicrobial, antiviral even virucidal activities against vast majority impervious pathogens. Rhazya stricta, folk medicinal desert plant from Saudi Arabia was recently revealed exhibit bactericidal activity multidrug-resistant (MDR) microorganisms. pandemic caused by...
The coast of the Red Sea in Jeddah City is home to a unique microbial community that has adapted extreme environmental conditions. Therefore, it essential characterize this microbiome predict how changes will affect it. aim study was conduct metagenomic sequencing 16S rRNA and ITS genes for taxonomic classification soil samples associated with halophytic plants Tamarix aphylla Halopeplis perfoliata. Fifteen were collected triplicate enhance robustness minimize sampling bias. Firstly,...
Soil and plant interact differently in response to the same stress (e.g., salinity) recruit certain bacteria. The southern corniche (Saudi Arabia) has limited growth, which could be due high temperature salinity. study aimed determine soil microbiome of selected plants interactions between these plants. Suaeda monoica Dipterygium glaucum samples were collected from crust (surface) rhizosphere, while with no growth nearby area was used as control. High-throughput hypervariable V3–V4 region...
Microbial communities that colonize insect guts contribute positively to the absorption of nutrients, immunity, and overall health host.Recent studies have been tapered towards only economically important arthropods, particularly honeybees.On other hand, arthropods such as grasshoppers are considered pests because they create havoc leading economic losses.Grasshoppers phytophagous a large appetite for plant fibers, digestion depends largely on bacterial in their guts.This study characterizes...
Background: The study describes the comparison of different microbial load results natural falling and dipping house fly (Musca domestica) in water milk to investigate possibilities preventing effect transferred pathogens from our sources by pointing out existence antimicrobial factors within fly. 
 Methods: Samples were collected Jeddah Makkah (Makkah region) directly laboratory. Each was packed sterile test tubes. tube opened oppositely a larger containing 10 ml tap water, at pH 4.0...
Abstract Background :Microbial communities that colonize insect guts contribute positively to the absorption of nutrients, immunity and overall health host. Recent studies have been tapered towards only economically important arthropods, particularly honeybees. On other hand, arthropods such as grasshoppers are considered pests because they create havoc leading economic losses. Grasshoppers phytophagous a large appetite for plant fibers, whose digestion depend largely on bacterial in their...
Abstract The recent emerging SARS-CoV-2 pandemic which was identified as COVID-19 disease has become a global health concern. It resulted in major pneumonia outbreak worldwide. Currently, there are no approved drugs and several attempts have been made to use computational program approaches drug repurposing for treatment. spike glycoprotein receptor-binding domain (RBD) is vital binding the hACE2 receptor, initiates entry into human cells, thus key target antiviral compound development. Many...
