OBJECTIVE
Evaluation of Lantana camara's use as feedstock for fuel ethanol production.
RESULTS
Lantana camara plant material was hydrolysed with 1% sulfuric acid for 18 h at room temperature, followed by heat treatment of 121 degrees C for 20 min. Hemicellulosic hydrolyzate was separated and used
The aim of the present study was to investigate the antimicrobial and preliminary phytochemical properties of Lantana indica Roxb. The aqueous and organic solvent (ethyl acetate and methanol) extracts from the leaves of Lantana indica (Verbenaceae) were tested against Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus
Lectins are known to possess interesting biological properties such as anti microbial, nematicidal, anti tumor and anti viral activities. Lantana camara from verbenaceae family is a medicinal plant known for possessing anti oxidant and anticancer activities. Since anticancer activity Chemical analysis was carried out on lantana (Lantana camara) and sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) seeds and nabak (Zizyphus spina-christi) seed kernels. The proximate analysis (on dry weight basis) of sweet pepper seeds, lantana seeds, and nabak seed kernels showed the following composition:
Oral administration of lantana leaf powder to guinea pigs caused a decrease in hepatic and renal tissue dry weight, DNA and protein contents. Total carbohydrate content decreased in liver but was not affected in the kidneys. RNA content (as a ratio of tissue dry weight) showed an increase in both
In a first study of its kind, the composition of vermicompost derived solely from the toxic and allelopathic weed lantana has been investigated using UV-visible and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, thermogravimetric (TG) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), gas
Culex mosquitoes feed on a wide range of nectars consisting of mostly carbohydrates and amino acids, however, little is known about the utilization and effects of these different carbohydrates and their accompanying amino acids on longevity. Culex quinquefasciatus larvae were reared on low- and
