Abstract Pomegranate ( Punica granatum ) is one of the oldest well-known edible fruits, which has originated in Central Asia but now it a widespread geographical distribution throughout world. Phytochemicals are isolated from pomegranate peels that show different nutritional and pharmaceutical properties. Absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, toxicity (ADME-Tox) were performed to check adsorption, compounds. Previous studies mainly focused on physico-chemical properties other...

The current study was carried out to reveal the chemical profile and biological screening of Heliotropium dasycarpum Ledeb, as well feasibility its industrial application. Therefore, methanolic extract (HdM) H. divided into n-hexane (HdH), ethyl acetate (HdE) water (HdW) soluble fractions. All fractions were inactive against acetylcholinesterase (AChE) enzyme, 3T3 HeLa cell lines, but showed immunomodulatory effect up 37 %. HdE fraction further displayed significant anti-urease activity with...
