Abstract
ABSTRACTParasitic and microbial infections present substantial health risks, requiring effective treatments amidst growing antibiotic resistance. This study delves into Dysphania ambrosioides medicinal properties, utilizing hydro distillation and ultrasonic methods for extraction, followed by GC-MS analysis. Assessments revealed potent anti-diabetic effects in the methanol extract, significant antioxidant activity in the DCM extract and oil, and resistance against Escherichia coli. This research underscores the potential of local flora for novel treatments, particularly in underdeveloped regions. It emphasizes the value of plant screening in bioprospecting efforts, suggesting further investigations into specific bioactive compounds for pharmaceutical applications.KEYWORDS: Dysphania ambrosioidesTFCphytochemical screeningGC-MSantibacterialTPCantioxidant AcknowledgmentsFinancial assistance from the BfR (SFP 1322-807) is thankfully acknowledged.Disclosure StatementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Data Availability StatementData are available on request from the authors.Supplementary MaterialSupplemental data for this article can be accessed online at https://doi.org/10.1080/10496475.2023.2267467
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Herbs, Spices & Medicinal Plants is an essential reference filled with recent research and other valuable information associated with herbs, spices, and medicinal plants. The Journal serves as a focus point through which investigators and others may publish material of importance to the production, marketing, and utilization of these plants and associated extracts. The journal covers the following topics: growth, development, horticulture, ecology, physiology, genetics, chemistry, and economics. Original articles, review articles, and book reviews provide information of interest to an international audience of researchers, teachers, technicians, and managers involved with production and/or marketing of herbs, spices, and medicinal plants. Managers of food companies, food processing facilities, medical research laboratories, government agencies, and others interested in new chemicals, food additives, international trade, patents, and other items can easily review new findings. The Journal of Herbs, Spices & Medicinal Plants is a forum in which recent research and other information associated with herbs, spices, and medicinal plants is shared. The Journal represents a centralized database accessible by investigators within the international community that work with or have an interest in herbs, spices, and medicinal plants.
