Date palm fruit (Phoenix dactylifera) is reputed to have numerous biological activities, including anticancer properties. To utilize the great fortune of this fruit, current study aimed maximize its pharmacological activity. extract (DPE) Khalas cultivar was obtained in powder form and then formulated into nanoemulsion (NE). The optimized DPE-NE along with naked counterpart followed by studying their physical chemical A qualitative assessment total serum protein associated surface...

The purpose of this work was to determine the secondary metabolites generated by O. basilicum cell suspensions, as well their insecticide and inhibitory activity against R. ferrugineus. growth kinetics with inoculation Verticillium dahliae were determined identified using LC-MS. Determination total phenolic components (TFC), flavonoids (TF), condensed tannins (TCT) measured. Insecticidal extract ferrugineus (larva adult) proteolytic enzymes assessed (in vitro in vivo). O.basilicum had an...

Essential oils have been used in various traditional healing systems since ancient times worldwide, due to their diverse biological activities. Several studies demonstrated plethora of activities-including anti-cancer activity-in a number cell lines. Anisosciadium lanatum Boiss. is perennial aromatic herb. Traditionally, it an edible safe herb with few exploring its importance. The current study aims investigate the chemical composition essential oil isolated from using GC-MS, as well report...

Trigonella stellata has used in folk medicine as palatable and nutraceutical herb. It also regulates hypocholesterolemia, hypoglycemia, showed anti-inflammatory activities well antioxidants efficacy. Osteoporosis is a one of bone metabolic disorders continuously increasing worldwide. In the present study, caffeic acid was isolated from identified using 1 D- 2 D-NMR spectroscopic data. Caffeic investigated on osteoblast osteoclast vitro mice marrow-derived mesenchymal cells. played reciprocal...

The current study was designed to investigate the insecticide role of volatile constituents produced from cell suspensions T. vulgaris and O. basilicum against R. ferrugineus. Constituents were extracted suspension after 40 days. Growth kinetics measured with an inoculation Verticillium dahliae identified by GC-MS. Total phenolic measured. Insecticidal activity ferrugineus (adult) proteolytic enzyme in larvae assessed. GC-MS showed that extract has higher amounts thymol, p-cymene,...

The objective of our work is to create a practical procedure produce in vitro cell suspensions O. basilicum and ascertain the factors that encourage enhanced secondary metabolite production. We investigated impact these metabolites on Rhynchophorus ferrugineus’s adult larval target enzymes. explants were cultivated Murashige Skoog (MS) media with 0.1 1 mg/L plant growth regulators (PGRs) calluses. 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), kinetin, 1-naphthylacetic (NAA), indole-3-butryic (IBA)...

Our study’s overarching goal was to determine which O. basilicum cell suspensions approach yielded the most insecticidal and R. ferrugineus-inhibitory volatile secondary metabolites. After inoculation with Verticillium dahliae as an activator, growth kinetics were measured, extract identified using GC-MS. Validation achieved for efficacy of a extract, pure phenolic content against larva adult ferrugineus, inhibitory effect on proteases (in vivo in vitro). The LC50 1229 µg/mL LD50 13.8...

The success in applying new technologies to improve cotton cultivars, G. barbadense , has been limited. Here we report results that show an increase somatic embryogenesis efficiency of four Egyptian cultivars; Giza70, Alexandria4, Bahtem101 and Hairy Free. Attempts form calluses from roots stem parts the above cultivars were not successful, whereas, use cotyledon hypo‐cotyledon tissues produced by embryos seeds have successful. Seeds activated inclusion Verticilium dahlia growing media. High...

Host plant resistance to phytophagus insects has been investigated in four Egyptian cotton cultivar varieties. The study centered on the indigenous content of plants terpenoid aldehydes and their infestation by boll leaf worms. Terpenoids varieties have extracted, resolved quantitatively determined different organ extracts over several periods lifetime. Nine compounds; gossypol“G”, methyl gossypol“MG”,dimethyl gossypol“DMG”, hemigossypolon“HGQ”, hemigossypolon“MHGQ” heliocides; H1,H4,B1,and...
