A 3-wk feeding study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of turmeric (Curcuma longa) powder (TMP), containing a known level of curcumin, and a hydrated sodium calcium aluminosilicate (HSCAS; Improved Milbond-TX, IMTX, an adsorbent, Milwhite Inc., Houston, TX) to ameliorate the adverse effects of

Ochratoxin A (OA) contamination of black pepper, coriander seeds, powdered ginger and turmeric powder was estimated using indirect competitive ELISA. Samples (1 g) were extracted with 0.5% potassium chloride (KCl) in 70% methanol (5 ml) and diluted subsequently to give two-fold to ten-fold step-wise

This study aimed to investigate the liver microsomal inhibitory effects of silybin, silychristin, andrographolide, and curcumin by using morphine as an in vitro UGT2B7 probe substrate, and predict the magnitude of the herb-drug interaction arising from these herbal constituents' inhibition in vivo.

This study was conducted to investigate potentially protective and curative effects of Curcuma longa root (turmeric) powder on CCl₄-induced hepatotoxicity in rats. Turmeric was administered before (preventive effect) or after (curative effect) treatment with CCl₄. Total

Broiler birds (Vencob chicken of 3 days old) when given feed mixed with powdered rhizome of Curcuma longa (CL; @ 1 g/kg) for 42 days of age, showed significant decrease in serum uric acid and albumin as compared to control, whereas significant increase was recorded in the level of serum total

The major component, called curcumin, of turmeric (Curcuma longa L.) (Family Zingiberaceae) powder is responsible for its biological actions. The present study aimed to prove the protective effect of turmeric extract against doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiac, hepatic, and renal toxicity as evaluated

Extracts of both Curcuma longa (CL) and Nigella sativa extract (NS) are reported to have protective effects on renal damage. In this study, we investigated the protective effect of a combination of NS and CL on Adriamycin (ADR)-induced renal damage. Forty eight rats were divided into six groups as:

The aim of this study was to elucidate the effects of zedoary turmeric oil (ZTO) on P450 activities (CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2B6, CYP2D6 and CYP3A4) in rats with liver cirrhosis induced by thioacetamide (TAA). For the induction of liver cirrhosis, rats were given TAA in their drinking water at a

The present investigation has been conducted to evaluate the therapeutic potential of Curcuma longa (200mgkg-1, po) and curcumin (80mgkg-1, po) for their hepatoprotective efficacy against mercuric chloride (HgCl2: 12μmolkg-1, ip; once only) hepatotoxicity. The HgCl2 administration altered various
