This study revealed the importance of antimicrobial compounds from the herbal extracts of lemon and onion. The extracts were tested against gram-negative (Escherichia coli) and gram-positive (Bacillus subtitlis) bacteria. Disc-diffusion and well-diffusion on an agar plate and tributary methods were followed to demonstrate the antimicrobial potentials of the above herbal extracts. Further, different volumes of ampicillin at the concentration of 1 mg/ml were used to compare the genuine bacterial inhibition (3 µL with 1.5 cm zone). Lemon behaved excellently in a way by displaying better bacterial inhibition against both E. coli (3 µL with 1.2 cm zone) and B. Subtilis (3 µL with 0.6 cm zone), whereas onion extract was not at the level of lemon extract; however, it still displayed a good inhibition. The turbidity assay confirms the inhibition efficiency of lemon and onion against both E. coli and B. subtilis. In the liquid medium lemon shows higher inhibition (2 & 3 folds) on bacteria than that of ampicillin and onion. Cell count and UV-vis spectroscopy analysis at 600 nm also conform to the efficacy of lemon inhibition against E. coli and B. subtilis. This experiment confirms that lemon extract is an excellent and better substitute for commercially available ampicillin for bacterial inhibition.","PeriodicalId":14437,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Secondary Metabolite","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135139894","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Because they are effective and have fewer adverse effects than other treatments for renal illness, medicinal plants have become increasingly important. This study aimed to investigate the antioxidant ability and the impact of Laurus nobilis extract (flower) on diuresis in rats. Two doses of 200 mg and 400 mg of Laurus nobilis extract were used to treat rats for thirty days. Then, we assessed all changes induced in urine and plasma parameters of rats, using furosemide as a standard drug. Further, we evaluated the total phenolic content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), and antioxidant ability (DPPH and FRAP) of the tested extract. The results obtained show that the administration of a single dose of Laurus nobilis extract improved the urine flow significantly after 4 h of treatment. Similarly, both doses of the tested extract enhanced sodium, potassium, and chloride excretion without inducing hypokalemia. A similar tendency was recorded for both urine and creatinine, while the results of the furosemide group revealed a significant hypokalemia effect of the standard drug. Laurus nobilis demonstrated superior antioxidant and diuretic effects without inducing hypokalemia due to the higher content of phenolic and flavonoid content. However, more advanced studies are required to explore the constituents of Laurus nobilis extracts and essential oils, as well as to test their pertinent biological activities.","PeriodicalId":14437,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Secondary Metabolite","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135875936","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For this purpose, farinograph and extensograph values of doughs made from PKP-flour (2.5, 5, 7.5 and 10%) mixed flours were investigated. Weight, volume, specific volume, crust color, inner color and firmness values were investigated in bread made from mixed flour. The results showed that the water absorption, development time, stability, resistance to extension and maximum resistance values of the dough increased with the increase in the amount of PKP. It also decreased in degree of softening, extensibility and energy levels. The change in softening degree and stability values were found to be statistically significant (p<0.05). PKP additive caused a firmer structure in bread samples. It was observed that the weight, volume, specific volume, first-day hardness and third-day hardness values of the bread increased with the increase in PKP. L* and a* values of bread crust color and inner color decreased with the addition of PKP. The increase in PKP had a positive effect on bread quality by increasing dough stability and bread volume values.","PeriodicalId":14437,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Secondary Metabolite","volume":"49 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139359133","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The peels of Citrus sinensis (300 g) were extracted using maceration and ultrasonic-assisted extraction methods with ethanol, resulting in yields of 20.99 g and 11.5 g (7%, 7.5%), respectively. Silica gel column chromatographic separation of the ethanol extract yielded N-(1,3,4,5-tetrahydroxydecan-2-y1)octanamide (1), decanoic acid (2), β-sitosterol-3-O-β-D-glucopyranoside derivative (3), and (z)-ethyl tetradec-7-enoate (4). GC-MS analysis of the essential oil detected 7 chemical components accounting for 99.84% of the total composition of which limonene was found to be the predominant constituent (87.5%). In vitro antibacterial tests revealed promising zones of inhibition by ethanol extract (12.67±0.58 mm, at 150 mg/mL), compound 4 (15.67±2.88 mm, at 6 mg/mL), and compound 1 (12.00±0.00 mm, at 6 mg/mL) against E. faecalis, S. typhimurium, and P. aeruginosa, respectively, compared to gentamicin (13.00±1.73 mm, 18.00±1.00 mm, and 16.67±1.15 mm, respectively at 10 µg/mL). DPPH radical scavenging activity indicated that compound 1 exhibited an IC50 value of 0.05 mg/mL, compared to ascorbic acid's 0.016 mg/mL. In silico molecular docking studies revealed that compounds 1 and 3 had the lowest scoring poses against E. coli DNA gyrase B enzyme, human peroxiredoxin 5, and S. aureus pyruvate kinase, respectively. These findings support traditional applications of Citrus peels in treating infectious diseases, particularly against Gram-positive strains, and highlight their potential use as antibacterial ingredients in cosmetics.","PeriodicalId":14437,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Secondary Metabolite","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47919756","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Antibiotic residue from foods is considered a significant contaminant that threatens human health worldwide. Awareness and training on the application of antibiotics among farmers and drug sellers can rationalize the use of antibiotics in food animals. The Government of Oman should create and firmly implement application guidelines to regulate the use and prevent the misuse of antibiotics in foodstuffs sectors.
