Hyptis suaveolens (L.) Poiteau, known as "Bamburral" is a plant widely used in Brazilian folk medicine, however, there are no toxicological studies to ascertain its safety. Thus, we aimed investigate the phytochemical and toxic effects of essential oil infusion dry leaves H. Drosophila melanogaster Artermia salina. The chemical composition was performed by CG-MS, while that infused extract analyzed HPLC-DAD. toxicity oil-OE (3.03–30.3 μg/mL air) D. means volatilization; for (2.5–20 mg/mL),...
Anacardium occidentale (Anacardiaceae), popularly known as cashews, is a vegetable native to South America, consumed worldwide in the food sector. Its leaves and bark are used preparation of teas for health maintenance, being indicated ethnobotanical studies treatment cancer, which considered serious public problem worldwide. The objective this study was evaluate cytotoxicity A. leaf extracts over tumor normal cells, well their vivo toxicity using Drosophila melanogaster fruit fly....
One of the main global problems that affect human health is development bacterial resistance to different drugs. As a result, growing number multidrug-resistant pathogens has contributed an increase in resistant infections and represents public problem. The present work seeks investigate chemical composition antibacterial activity essential oil Syzygium cumini leaves. To identify its composition, gas chromatography coupled mass spectrometry was used. test performed with standard strains...
Objective: This work aimed to elucidate the chemical profile and allelopathic potential of ethanolic extract Asparagus setaceus leaves collected in morning (8 A.M) afternoon (2 P.M). Method: The was obtained using cold ethanol secondary metabolites classes were identified with specific reagents. For activity, test solution from 100 mg extract, dissolved mL 66% ethanol, obtaining concentrations 6.25% 100%. Two control groups used: distilled water alcohol evaluation following parameters:...
This study aimed to analyze the chemical composition of fixed oils extracted from fruits Acrocomia aculeata, Syagrus cearensis and Attalea speciosa, in addition evaluating their efficacy combating resistant microorganisms, such as Escherichia coli Staphylococcus aureus. The ripe were collected region Barbalha, Ceara , analyzed by gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC/MS) identify compounds present. antibacterial activity was tested using microdilution method 96-well plates, inhibition...
Antimicrobial resistance is a global concern, affecting public health and generating economic social impacts, which requires strategies to contain its spread reduce associated deaths. Medicinal plants demonstrate efficacy against pathogenic microorganisms, offering alternatives in the fight microbial resistance. As highlight, Casearia javitensis has antimicrobial antiparasitic properties of therapeutic relevance cope with these microorganisms. This research aimed evaluate antibacterial...
The global antibiotic resistance crisis highlights the inappropriate use of medicines by population and lack development new antimicrobial agents. According to various studies, natural products are promising alternatives for combating bacterial treating infectious diseases. Accordingly, present study aimed analyze chemical composition evaluate antibacterial potential an aqueous extract Cordia oncocalyx Allemão (AECO). Phytochemical analyses were performed using high-performance liquid...
The emergence of fungal resistance to commercial drugs has been a major problem for the WHO. In this context, research with natural products is promising in discovery new active substances. Thus, work evaluated antifungal effect medicinal plant (i.e.,
Desde tempos antigos, as plantas têm sido fontes de alimento e medicina, sendo amplamente adotadas, especialmente em comunidades carentes. Apesar do progresso médico, aproximadamente 75% da população global ainda depende das propriedades curativas plantas. A narrativa destaca a influente expedição liderada por Carl Friedrich Philipp von Martius no século XIX, que resultou na monumental obra "Flora brasiliensis". Esta abrangeu cerca 10 mil quilômetros, catalogando 6.500 espécies vegetais,...
As microbes develop resistance to various drugs, the treatment of infections becomes increasingly challenging, leading prolonged illness, heightened severity infections, elevated mortality rates, and increased healthcare costs. Essential oils are lipophilic volatile mixtures compounds that have gained attention in research for novel antimicrobial agents. Therefore, present study evaluated essential oil Syzygium cumini leaves (EOSC) order prospect its antifungal trichomonacidal activities....
