Abstract

The effects of temperature on the adsorption of Methylene Blue (MB) and Congo Red (CR) dyes using groundnut shell (GS) and sorghum husk (SH) biosorbents were investigated. Adsorption capacities were determined through spectrophotometric analysis, and thermodynamic parameters including Gibbs free energy (ΔG), enthalpy (ΔH), and entropy (ΔS) were calculated. The study found that MB adsorption onto SH was spontaneous and endothermic, while other conditions exhibited non-spontaneous and exothermic behavior. These findings demonstrate the potential of GS and SH as viable, low-cost biosorbents for dye removal in wastewater treatment, highlighting their practical application in sustainable environmental remediation.

Abstract

Musa paradisiaca (banana) leaves have been extensively used in traditional medicine for the treatment and management of disorders related to oxidative stress, including diabetes, neurodegenerative diseases, and cancer. However, there is limited scientific evidence supporting these claims. This study aimed to evaluate the hepatoprotective and antioxidant properties of Musa paradisiaca leaf extract in albino rats with carbon tetrachloride (CCl₄)-induced liver damage. Fresh leaves of Musa paradisiaca were collected, shade-dried, and extracted using 60% ethanol. Thirty albino rats were randomly assigned to five groups: control, CCl₄-induced, CCl₄ + silymarin (100 mg/kg), CCl₄ + Musa paradisiaca extract (200 mg/kg), and CCl₄ + Musa paradisiaca extract (400 mg/kg). The extract was administered orally, while CCl₄ was given intraperitoneally (IP) to induce liver damage. Phytochemical screening of the extract revealed the presence of alkaloids, saponins, tannins, flavonoids, anthraquinones, and steroids. Liver function biomarkers—alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP)—were analyzed spectrophotometrically. The results indicated that the Musa paradisiaca extract significantly reduced ALT, AST, and ALP levels (p ≤ 0.05) compared to the CCl₄-treated group, demonstrating its hepatoprotective effects. The 400 mg/kg dose exhibited a more pronounced effect, comparable to that of silymarin. These findings provide scientific validation for the traditional use of Musa paradisiaca leaves in managing liver disorders and conditions associated with oxidative stress. Further studies are recommended to isolate and characterize the bioactive compounds responsible for these effects.
