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....
Efflux pumps are proteins present in the plasma membrane of bacteria, which transport antibiotics and other compounds into extracellular medium, conferring resistance. The discovery natural efflux pump inhibitors is a promising alternative. α-Bisabolol sesquiterpene isolated from several plants such as Matricariachamomilla L. has important properties antibacterial anti-inflammatory activity. Currently, formation inclusion complexes with β-Cyclodextrin been used for improving physicochemical...
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...
Sida L. is one of the most diverse genera within Malvaceae, with species popularly used in different countries for treatment diseases. Scientific support ethnopharmacological potential some these has been provided by bio-assays. In this work, leaf extracts S. galheirensis, least chemically and pharmacologically studied species, were evaluated antibacterial antifungal activity drug-modulatory potential. The chemical composition was analyzed using liquid chromatography mass spectrometry...
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:...
Biofilms, formed by microbial communities that increase resistance to antibiotics, are responsible for chronic infections, making their combat a therapeutic priority. Taking this into account, the fruit Caryocar coriaceum stands out its potential in treatment of infectious diseases. The different parts plant can be used, and fixed oil extracted from fruit, rich fatty acids, is indicated as biological activities. Thus, objective study was evaluate chemical composition fruits C. (FOCC),...
The Cleomaceae family, revised by Iltis and Cochrane, includes several genera, among them Tarenaya, whose pharmacological potential has been widely studied. This article reviews the medicinal properties of species Tarenaya longicarpa (synonyms Cleome spinosa spinosa), popularly known as mussambe , highlighting its uses in traditional scientific medicine. In folk medicine, T. is used to treat asthma, cough, bronchitis, fever, inflammations. Studies confirm that extracts possess...
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...
This study investigated the chemical composition and potential antibacterial activity of essential oils from propolis Melipona quadrifasciata (MQP) in samples collected cities Paranaguá Guaratuba, Paraná, Brazil, during summer winter. The was analyzed by GC-MS, their minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) determined against standard ATCC strains some clinical isolates (Escherichia coli 06 Staphylococcus aureus 10). oils' MICs were using microdilution 96-well plates showed no significant (MIC...
