Seaweed has been known to possess beneficial effects forhuman health due the presence of functional bioactive components. The n-butanol and ethyl acetate extracts Dictyota dichotoma showed ash (31.78%), crude fat (18.93%), protein (14.5%), carbohydrate (12.35%) contents. About 19 compounds were identified in extract, primarily undecane, cetylic acid, hexadecenoic Z-11-, lageracetal, dodecane, tridecane, whereas 25 mainly tetradecanoic, myristic acid. FT-IR spectroscopy confirmed carboxylic...

Abstract Background Freshwater macroalgae possess a number of important secondary metabolites. They are an unexplored source medicinal compounds. In this study, three freshwater macroalgae— Chara vulgaris , Cladophora glomerata and Spirogyra crassa —were collected from the river Swat Kabul in Charsadda district Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. To assess role agriculture, various experiments were performed on their extracts. Methanolic extract first analyzed through gas chromatography–mass...

Chrozophora tinctoria (Euphorbiaceae) has been used as an emetic, anthelminthic, and cathartic agent in traditional medicine. We gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) to characterize the composition of ethyl acetate (EAC) dichloromethane (DCMC) fractions from whole plant. EAC DCMC were evaluated for acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory activity acute toxicity. Their effects on intestinal propulsive movement spasmogenic gastrointestinal tract (GIT) muscle also assessed. The compounds...

Chrozophora tinctoria is an annual plant of the family Euphorbiaceae, traditionally used as a laxative, cathartic and emetic. A methanolic extract (MEC) whole n-butanol fraction (NBFC) were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) to detect phytochemicals. MEC NBFC tested for in vitro anti acetylcholinesterase (AChE) potential. The effect both samples on intestinal propulsive movement spasmolytic activity gastrointestinal tract (GIT) was also studied. About twelve compounds...
