Abstract
Asian plants of flower, vegetable and fruit named Clitoria ternetea, Lagenaria siciraria and Ziziphus mauritiana respectively are known for their extensive uses in traditional medicine as well as traditional treatment of various diseases and infections. Several studies have already been done so far on these plants and its various parts but the studies on their seeds as well as their seed oilwas lacking. In this work, we determined the protein content of these seeds as well as we extracted the seed oils and determined their anti-microbial activity independently along with the anti-microbial activity by mixing all these oils together in equal ratios. Both, protein determination and anti-microbial activity determination showed considerable and potential results. The Lagenaria siciraria seeds (in ethanol extract) showed highest protein content amongst all i.e., 4.44 (μg/mL-1) whereas Clitoria ternetea seeds displayed highest protein content (in water extract) amongst all i.e., 5.07 (μg/mL-1). The anti-microbial activity of the mixed seed oil showed better and great results as compared to individual anti-microbial activity of seed oils.
期刊介绍:
A Revista Brasileira de Ciência Avícola surgiu em 1999 a partir da necessidade que a comunidade científica possuía de um periódico para veiculação e publicação de seus trabalhos, com a publicação de três números anuais.
A Revista conta hoje com um corpo editorial altamente qualificado e com artigos científicos desenvolvidos pelos maiores especialistas da área, o que a cada dia atrai mais leitores em busca de inovação e respaldo técnico.
Devido à credibilidade que conquistou pelos esforços de sus autores, relatores e revisores, a Revista ganhou caráter de coleção, sendo consultada como fonte segura de estudo desenvolvidos na Avicultura.
A partir de 2003 – volume 5 -, a Revista passou a chamar-se Brazilian Journal of Poultry Science, e todos os trabalhos passaram a ser publicados em inglês. No mesmo ano subiu para quatro o número de revistas por volume, ampliando-se assim os trabalhos publicados anualmente.
