Croton sylvaticus, a tropical African plant, is traditionally used to treat several diseases, including fever, inflammation, and malaria. Essential oils (EOs) from the plant’s leaves, roots, trunk bark were obtained by hydrodistillation, their chemical composition was analyzed gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The major constituents identified virdiflorene (18.13 ± 0.46%) in root EO, (E)-β-caryophyllene (18.40 0.60%) farnesyl acetone (15.26 0.25%) leaf EO. Notably, Cameroonian C....
In Cameroon, like in other African countries, infusions of Artemisia afra and annua are widely used for the management health-related problems, including malaria. The secondary metabolite contents medicinal plants vary between different geographical regions seasons, directly influencing their effectiveness treating ailments. This study explores phytochemical diversity anti-plasmodial potential A. from distinct locations within aiming to define optimal chemical composition terms activity....
Background: Malaria remains a pressing global health concern, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa, where its impact is exacerbated by various behavioural factors, including alcohol consumption. This study aimed to assess the knowledge about role of during malaria and interactions with antimalarial medications amongst adults Buea Health District. Methods: Structural questionnaires were administered 300 residing District between May August 2022 obtain sociodemographic factors evaluate...
Malaria is the most widespread endemic disease in Cameroon, and asymptomatic Plasmodium (gametocyte) carriers (APCs) constitute more than 95% of infectious human reservoirs malaria settings. This study assesses knowledge (ASM) among health care workers (HCWs) facilities (HFs) Centre Region Cameroon acceptability using Artemisia afra tea to treat APCs. A cross-sectional descriptive survey was conducted 100 HCWs, four randomly selected HFs Region, period 1–20 April 2022, semi-structured...
In respect of the WHO's commendation to incorporate traditional medicine (TM) in health care, Cameroon government wants promote use and is resolute on encouraging treatment patients with alternative from sources. This study explores herbal tea by Cameroonian adults prevent or treat diseases socio-demographic determinants among participants.A cross-sectional survey was conducted 307 (18-65 years) randomly selected within 4 hospitals communities Centre Southwest regions between...
Research for bioactive molecules and not resistant to infectious agents remains topical science. The total polyphenols (TPP) flavonoids (TFv) of the hydroethanolic extracts fractions obtained were quantified according spectrophotometric method described in literature using Folin-Ciocalteu reagent colorless solutions sodium nitrite 2.5% aluminum chloride 10% respectively. characterization chemical compounds was made by coupling liquid chromatography (LC) mass spectroscopy (MS). Thus, 15...
