Hospital-acquired infections caused by antibiotic-resistant bacteria threaten the lives of many citizens all over the world. Discovery of new agents to hinder bacterial development would have a significant impact on the treatment of infections. Here, the purification and characterization of
The study was carried out to ascertain the antibacterial properties inherent in fermented seed extracts of Ricinus communis. Dry seeds of R. communis (Castor oil plant) were deshelled, grounded to powder, fermented, and then extracted both with alcohol and water using Soxhlet machine. Different
BACKGROUND
Ricinus communis (Euphorbiaceae) has previously been reported to possess analgesic, antihistamine, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. This study was designed for isolation, characterization and evaluation of antibacterial and anti-proliferative activities of R. communis seed
OBJECTIVE
Ricinus communis leaves are used in herbal preparations for treating candidiasis, skin and wound infections in Ghana. This study aimed at comparing the phytochemical profile of aqueous, methanol, petroleum ether, ethyl acetate and ethanolic extracts of the leaves of Ricinus communis and
The Ricinus communis biomarker peptides RCB-1 to -3 comprise homologous sequences of 19 (RCB-1) or 18 (RCB-2 and -3) amino acid residues. They all include four cysteine moieties, which form two disulfide bonds. However, neither the 3D structure nor the biological activity of any of these peptides is
BACKGROUND
The immune system of ticks is stimulated to produce many pharmacologically active molecules during feeding and especially during pathogen invasion. The family of cationic peptides - defensins - represents a specific group of antimicrobial compounds with six conserved cysteine residues in
Casbene synthase catalyzes the cyclization of geranylgeranyl diphosphate (2) to casbene (1), a diterpene phytoalexin with antibacterial and antifungal activity that is produced by seedlings of castor bean (Ricinus communis L.) in response to fungal attack. We report the high-level expression of
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the phytochemical, antimicrobial and insecticidal properties of different Jatropha species and Ricinus communis (castor) (R. communis) growing in Mauritius.
METHODS
Qualitative and quantitative methods were used for the determination of the presence of phytochemicals in the
BACKGROUND
The aim of the present study was to appraise the antimicrobial activity of Ricinus communis L. essential oil against different pathogenic microorganisms and the cytotoxic activity against HeLa cell lines.
METHODS
The agar disk diffusion method was used to study the antibacterial activity
In this present work, Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanorods (NRs) were synthesized by bio-mediated approach. The Ricinus communis L. leaf extract act as reducing as well as capping agent for the synthesize of ZnO NRs. The crystalline nature and phase purity of the as prepared ZnO NRs were identified by the
Context. Many diseases are associated with oxidative stress caused by free radicals. Objective. The present study evaluated the in vitro antioxidant and antibacterial activities of various extracts of aerial parts of Periploca aphylla and Ricinus communis. Materials and Methods. In vitro antioxidant
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the in vitro antimicrobial activities of the leaf extract in different solvents viz., methanol, ethanol and water extracts of the selected plant Ricinus communis.
METHODS
Agar well diffusion method and agar tube dilution method were carried out to perform the antibacterial
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate antibacterial activity of hot and cold ethanol and methanol leaf extracts of Ricinus communis L (R. communis) against Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) (NCTC 6571) and Escherichia coli (E. coli) (ATCC 25922).
METHODS
Leaf powder of R. communis L. was extracted with hot (in
