A review on Adenium obesum: A potential endemic medicinal plant in Oman
Publication date: Available online 25 June 2018Source: Beni-Suef University Journal of Basic and Applied SciencesAuthor(s): Md. Amzad HossainAbstractMedicinal plants have played a vital role in the treatment of various human diseases and development of the society since the ancient times. Medicinal plants are the only safe sources for new drugs to treat curable and incurable diseases. About 25% of the prescription drugs available worldwide are derived from natural resources. Adenium obesum (AO) is one of the rare endemic medicinal plants in Oman and it belongs to family Apocynaceae. A biochemical investigation of the local...

Response surface optimization and effects of agricultural wastes on total petroleum hydrocarbon degradation
This study was carried out to investigate the effects of Goat manure (GM) and Palm oil mill effluent (POME) on total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPHs) degradation. Microbial respiration rates (CO2 evolution) were investigated. TPHs degradation rate constants were estimated using the first-order kinetics model. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) were used to investigate the surface morphologies and functional groups in GM and POME. The CO2 evolution rates in TPH contaminated soil treated with GM (TPHCS-GM), TPH contaminated soil treated with POME (TPHCS-POME), and the untreated TPH contaminated...

Assessment of proliferative index in different grades of breast cancers using AgNOR (Agyrophilic Nuclear Organizer Region) expression
Publication date: Available online 30 June 2018Source: Beni-Suef University Journal of Basic and Applied SciencesAuthor(s): Williams Kweku Darkwah, Gideon Aidoo, Yanhui Ao, Kwabena Owusu Danquah, Ernest Adjei, Ernest Adankwah, Alhassan KadriAbstractNucleolar organiser regions (NORs) are loops of DNA which are responsible for ribosomal RNA (rRNA) transcription in the nucleus of cells. NORs can be selectively stained by silver methods. The NORs agyrophilia is due to a group of nucleolar proteins, which have affinity for silver (Agyrophilic Nucleolar Organizer Regions, AgNOR proteins). The aim of the present study is to asses...

Clerodendrum volubile P. Beauv (Lamiaceae), an underutilized indigenous vegetable of utmost nutritive and pharmacological importance
Publication date: Available online 2 July 2018Source: Beni-Suef University Journal of Basic and Applied SciencesAuthor(s): Abdulwakeel Ayokun-nun Ajao, Michael Ojo Oseni, Olaniran Temitope Oladipo, Yusuf Agbomekhe Adams, Yusuf Ola Mukaila, Abdulwadud Abiodun AjaoAbstractClerodendrum volubile is an underutilized vegetable native to West Africa most especially Nigeria. The plant is used traditionally in the treatment of arthritis, diabetes, dropsy, gout rheumatism, dropsy, swellings, oedema, and analgesic. The ethnopharmacological potential of C. volubile through its phytochemistry, biological activities, and proximate analy...

A novel chalcone derivative from Punica granatum peel inhibits LOX/COX enzyme activity
Publication date: Available online 3 July 2018Source: Beni-Suef University Journal of Basic and Applied SciencesAuthor(s): S. Sudheesh, K. Soumya, Jesna JamesAbstractThe present study evaluates the Lipoxygenase (LOX) and cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitory activity of a flavonoid isolated from Punica granatum peel. The molecular structure and chemical bonds were analyzed on the basis of different spectroscopic techniques. The chemical structure of the compound proves that it is a novel chalcone derivative. The isolated compound was elucidated as (2E)-3-(4-hydroxy-3-pentylphenyl)-1-(2-hydroxy-4,5-di((E)-prop-1-enyl)phenyl)prop-...

Comparative morphological study of three species of Saraca L. (Fabaceae) by the statistical approach to find out the logic of potent morphological markers
This study is done for these three species as S. indica L., S. declinata (Jack) Miq., and S. thaipingensis Cantley ex Prain which are taxonomically recognized and identified by morphological characters, both of vegetative and reproductive. As a common trend of taxonomic study key to the identification of taxa is based on contrast pairs of lead characters considering as good characters to the taxonomic work when these characters are different in different taxa. The present study is emphasized here again to find out the marker characters for identity with the approach of preparation of ternary plot considering 82 characters ...

Two spectrophotometric methods for quantitative determination of some pesticides applied for cucumber in Egypt
Publication date: Available online 4 July 2018Source: Beni-Suef University Journal of Basic and Applied SciencesAuthor(s): Amira M. Hegazy, Rehab M. Abdelfatah, Hamada M. Mahmoud, Mohamed A. ElsayedAbstractSpecific spectroscopic techniques were validated for assay of four pesticides applied for cucumber in Egypt; mandipropamid (MAN), metalaxyl (MET), thiophenate methyl (THO) and carbendazim (CAR). First method is derivative method for the quaternary mixture of the studied pesticides; by using the first derivative THO was assayed at 281 nm, while MAN and CAR were assayed using second derivative at 236.4 and 256.2 nm, respec...

Pathogenicity of Escherichia coli O157 in commercial broiler chickens
In conclusion, the E.coli O157 serogroup was pathogenic to chicks when experimentally inoculated, so particular attention must be directed toward E.coli O157 not only as a pathogen infecting bird but also of great public health impact. Also probiotics was of great value in protection against the E.coli infection and improve the performance parameters of chicks. (Source: Beni Suef University Journal of Basic and Applied Sciences)
