Abstract

Sempur air (Dillenia suffruticosa) and akar kaik-kaik (Uncaria cordata) are two plants that can be found on Sumatra, Indonesia. The locals employ those herbs as traditional medicine in variety of ways, including treating diarrhea. This study sought to confirm the efficacy of sempur air and akar kaik-kaik leaf extracts as traditional diarrhea remedies. Leaves were obtained in Bangka-Belitung and Riau, Sumatra. They were extracted with 70% ethanol as a solvent and then evaluated for the phytochemical constituents and antibacterial properties. The phytochemical screening found that the ethanol extract of akar kaik-kaik leaf contains alkaloids, tannins, and saponins, but no flavonoids or steroids/triterpenoids. The ethanol extract of sempur air leaf included alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, and saponins; but neither steroids or triterpenoids. The ethanol extract of akar kaik-kaik leaf showed no impact on Shigella dysentriae and Salmonella typhimurium, whereas the ethanol extract of sempur air leaf could inhibit S. dysentriae but not S. typhimurium.

Abstract

Pollen of the date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) has been used for thousands of years as a traditional herbal medicine for improving fertility. However, safety of plant-derived materials is an important concern to human health, and herbal remedies should be taken with adequate knowledge about their toxicity, adverse effects, purity, appropriate dosage and dose limits. The current work was undertaken to evaluate the safety of date palm pollen (DPP) and to classify it according to its oral toxicity in rats. The experiments were done according to the reported guidelines of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) to assess the acute and repeated dose oral toxicity in rats. The obtained results showed neither death nor sign of toxicity or abnormality in any of the animals throughout the experimental period regarding acute and repeated dose oral toxicity. Also the results of the hematological and clinical biochemistry determinations showed no significant differences between the control and DPP-treated rat groups. It could be concluded that, the tested plant material is a relatively safe substance and its approximate LD50 defined by 2000mg/kg < LD50 < 5000mg/kg according to the OECD tests guidelines.

Abstract

Copper nanoparticles have been successfully synthesized using the green synthesis method by utilizing red dragon fruit peel extract as a bioreductor. Red dragon fruit peel contains secondary metabolites that can reduce Cu2+ ions to Cu0. Physically, the formation of copper nanoparticles is indicated by a color change from light blue to green. In addition, the success of copper nanoparticles of red dragon fruit peel extract can be analyzed using a Visible and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectrophotometer. The measurements using a Visible spectrophotometer showed the formation of copper nanoparticles at absorption peaks in the wavelength range of 400-450 nm. The stability of copper nanoparticles can be determined through the SPR peak absorption for 30 minutes, which shows that copper nanoparticles have good stability and have an estimated particle range of 46.43-92.93 nm, with a band gap value of 2.45 eV. The results of the FTIR spectrum on copper nanoparticles-red dragon fruit peel extract show a shift in the absorption peak of the wave number 3412.07 cm-1 to a wave number of 3439.07 cm-1 indicating a reduction of Cu2+to Cu0.

Abstract

Tea from tea leaves of the Camellia sinensis species is a superior industrial plant that promises superior bioactivity. For a more in-depth study of the essential oils contained in commercial teas on the market, their significant characteristic from their constituent compounds were determined. The essential oil yields of the three commercial samples were obtained by distillation using a Liken-Nickerson vessel and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), then tested for antioxidant properties by the DPPH method. The yield obtained ranged from 0.08-0.13%. The main major components (more than 0.5% identified) contained in the three samples identified were benzyl acetate, between 4,56-26.27%, and linalool compounds from tea leaves, as much as 20.59%, and 3.42% in samples C and B which were not found in sample A. As shown by our results, antioxidant activity significantly correlated with benzyl acetate and linalool composition. Sample A showed the best antioxidant profile, with highest inhibition (IC50 20.19 mg/mL).

Abstract

The immune system of humans is impacted by many drugs. Chemicals that have a gender-bending impact on boys, were synthesized, their use spread, and as a consequence, they entered the ecology, the food chain, and eventually ended up in blood or human breast milk. Due to the use of benzene in both industry and medicine, chemicals with benzene rings are among the most problematic. The generation of benzene metabolites that produce superoxide, the phenoxy radical, and benzene-drug binding are only a few of the processes by which benzene and its derivatives cause harm. Benzene metabolites are distinct from chemical metabolites apart from benzene, which is lipophilic in nature and binds to cellular membranes, in that they bind to the intracellular plasma membrane where they produce degenerative alterations. Many diseases are associated with degenerative alterations in the mitochondria that culminate in mitochondrial dysfunction. Herein, twenty benzene derivatives (BDs) have been studied in terms of their biological and physiochemical properties, and the compounds have also been investigated using quantum mechanical computations. Binding affinities and behaviors of all BDs have been investigated using molecular docking and nonbonding interactions on 3D crystal structures of human receptor proteins serum albumin (1AO6), free native cellulase CEL48F (1G9G), and human D-amino acid oxidase mutant (P219L) complexed with benzoate (6KBP). Geometry as well as thermochemical data support the stability of all structures. All derivatives were predicted by ADMET to have improved pharmacokinetic properties and less acute oral toxicity.
