Mentha suaveolens, Lavandula stoechas, and Ammi visnaga are widely used in Moroccan folk medicine against several pathological disorders, including diabetes infectious diseases. This work was designed to determine the chemical profile of M. suaveolens (MSEO), L. stoechas (LSEO), A. (AVEO) essential oils assess their antimicrobial, antioxidant, antidiabetic effects. The volatile components LSEO, AVEO, MSEO were analyzed using Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS). vitro activity...
Abstract This review article aims to significantly advance the scientific community's efforts develop effective nucleoside‐based drugs for treating severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2 ) and other emerging infectious diseases. study concentrates on main viral protease (Mpro) explores compounds as potential therapeutic agents. investigation investigated impact of acylation‐induced modifications nucleoside hydroxyl group subsequent properties. Nucleoside analogs, which...
There is a need to synthesize eco-friendly nanoparticles with more effective and potent antibacterial activities. A green cost-effective method for the synthesis of silver (AgNPs) using Thymus vulgaris, Mentha piperita, Zingiber officinale extracts was developed. The analytical instrumentation, namely, UV/Vis, absorption spectroscopy, FTIR, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), used determine developed AgNPs, confirming functional groups involved in their reduction. Acidic molybdate, DPPH,...
Cedrus atlantica (Endl.) Manetti ex Carriere is an endemic tree possessing valuable health benefits which has been widely used since time immemorial in international traditional pharmacopoeia. The aim of this exploratory investigation to determine the volatile compounds C. essential oils (CAEOs) and examine their vitro antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, dermatoprotective properties. In silico simulations, including molecular docking pharmacokinetics absorption, distribution,...
To evaluate the antibacterial activity of methanol extract Hibiscus sabdariffa ( H. ) calyces employed in Sudanese folk medicine against five hospital isolates multidrug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (MDR A. ). The 80% (v/v) was evaluated by agar disc diffusion, minimum inhibitory concentration and bactericidal methods. Antibiotic susceptibility selected strains tested. In present investigation, from exhibited significant properties non-MDR as well MDR with a zone inhibition ranging...
This work evaluated in vitro antioxidant, antidiabetic, and antibacterial properties of Salvia officinalis (S. officinalis) Mentha suaveolens (M. suaveolens) essential oils (EO). The EOs were extracted, their chemical composition was determined using GC-MS analysis. activities S. M. EO shown to be remarkable. Furthermore, demonstrated better antioxidant findings (using DPPH, ABTS, FRAP test) than (p < 0.5). There no significant differences the inhibitory effects on α-amylase α-glucosidase...
Mentha piperita and Lavandula multifida are widely used in Moroccan traditional medicine for the treatment of diabetes infectious diseases. The aims this work were determination chemical composition (MPEO) (LMEO) essential oils evaluation their antibacterial, antioxidant, antidiabetic activities. was determined by GC-MS analysis. antibacterial effects evaluated against several bacterial strains using disc diffusion, MIC, MBC methods. antioxidant activity vitro DPPH, H2O2, xanthine oxidase,...
Tetraclinis articulata is a known traditional medicinal plant used to manage various ailments, such as diabetes, rheumatism and infectious diseases. This study aims determine the chemical constituents of T. essential oil (EO) evaluate its in vitro antibacterial, anti-candidal, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory dermatoprotective properties. In addition, computational docking approach was predict potential antifungal, anti-inflammatory, cytotoxic properties identified compounds. The volatile...
An ethnobotanical survey was conducted in different localities of Al-Rass province, Qassim area, Saudi Arabia. Information about the local and scientific names, parts used therapeutic application 47 medicinal plant species belonging to 28 families commonly by inhabitants traditional practitioners recognized competence were described. Key words: Medicinal plants, herbal drugs, ethnobotany, Al-Rass, Qassim,
Hibiscus sabdariffa L. is a plant native to tropical Africa and intensively cultivated in Sudan. Its calyces are widely consumed with many uses Sudanese folk medicine.The dried of H. were subjected soak 80% v/v methanol get the methanolic extract, which was tested against five Gram-negative three Gram-positive referenced bacterial strains using disc diffusion method. Selected bioactive phytochemical compounds also investigated qualitative methods.The results antibacterial test indicate that...
The objectives of this work were to determine the phytochemical composition and antioxidant, anti-diabetic, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-acetylcholinesterase properties Arbutus unedo L. Laurus nobilis EOs. antioxidant effects estimated using four complementary methods. In addition, anti-diabetic activity was assessed by targeting three carbohydrate-hydrolyzing enzymes, namely α-amylase, α-glucosidase, lipase. anti-inflammatory evaluated testing inhibitory potential both plants on...
Medicinal herbs have long been utilized to treat various diseases or relieve the symptoms of some ailments for extended periods. The present investigation demonstrates phytochemical profile, molecular docking, anti-Candida activity, and anti-viral activity Saussurea costus acetic acid extract. GC-MS analysis extract revealed presence 69 chemical compounds. compounds were alkaloids (4%), terpenoids (79%), phenolic hydrocarbons (7%), sterols (6%). Molecular docking was used study inhibitory...
Camel milk has been an integral component of diets in the Middle East for millennia. The current study aimed to evaluate microbial changes pasteurized camel and cow using culture-based methods. We examined bacterial growth raw during 17 days refrigerated storage at 4 °C. Raw had a mean initial count 4.13 × 10³ CFU/mL, peaking 2.87 106 CFU/mL by day 17. Pasteurization reduced 2 10¹ rising 40 104 started 1.08 reaching 3.15 while increased from 31.12 4.06 CFU/mL. Coagulase-positive...
The growing consumer demand for preservative-free food products has intensified research into antimicrobial biopolymers packaging. This study explores the potential of chitosan by developing a novel biopolymer through blending and whey protein in varying ratios (1:1, 1:2, 1:3) incorporating essential oils to enhance efficacy. Mint ginger were added at concentrations 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, 2%, with initial screenings identifying optimal composition as 1:1 chitosan–whey matrix supplemented 1% mint...
