The potential of plant extracts to scavenge free radicals such as DPPH, ABTS and FRAP (Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power) was investigated. For all extracts, phytochemical analysis indicated the presence of terpenoids, steroids, tannins, anthocyanins, phenols and flavonoids with absence of fatty acids in ethanol 80% and ethyl acetate. Ethyl acetate extract of L. inermis achieved a high percentage of TPC and TFC, but it was higher in 80% ethanol of H. sabdariffa than the other extracts under study. Ethyl acetate extracted the highest TPC (66.8 ± 3.6 mg/100g) in C. citratus and 80% ethanol extracted the highest TFC (37.23± 2.05mg/100g). Ethanolic extract (80%) of the three plants' leaves showed a higher IC50 value than both ethyl acetate and hexane extracts. This indicates that 80% ethanol was the best solvent for extracting phenolic compounds and flavonoids. The “ABTS radical” scavenging activity was the highest for ethyl acetate extract of L. inermis. The lowest value was observed for hexane extract of both C. citratus and L. inermis. This study exhibited potential of ethanolic extracts (80%) of all plants for removing free radicals and their effectiveness to be a powerful antioxidant.

It is considered as a serious threat to the human health globally. For many years plants and natural constitutes components such as vitamin C (ascorbic acid), green tea have been used as anti-cancer drugs. Aim: The objective of this in vitro study was to investigate the effect of vitamin C, green tea and their combination on Mg-63 cell line. Material Methods: Treatment of cell line (Mg-63) by different concentrations of vitamin, green tea and their combination was done to evaluate the viability of the treated cells by SRB assay. Microscopic examination and were applied. Results: Regarding cytotoxicity effect of vitamin C, green tea and their combination on Mg-63cell line, it was noticed that cell distribution showed a variable arrest at different phase of cell division. Where there was nonsignificant difference of arrested cells of these drugs compared with its value in non-treated G0-G1 phase control cells while there was a significant elevated arrest of treated cells during the G2-M phase and the significant difference of cell arrest at G2-M phase was type of treatment related. Conclusion: From the results of the present study, we noticed that vitamin green tea and their combination have cytotoxic effect on Mg-63 cell line, it also induced an effect on the cell cycle distribution, resulting in apoptosis, necrosis and autophagy.

This study aimed to characterize the native PGPR strains isolated from sugar beet rhizosphere and to evaluate their antagonistic activity against three of the common phytopathogen. Therefore, thirty bacterial strains were isolated from sugar beet rhizosphere and some of their morphological characteristics were investigated. Enzymatic (catalase, gelatinase & amylase) activities reflected a high degree of variability amongst strains. The antibiotic resistance to seven different antibiotics were significantly varied as revealed by zone-diameter around antibiotic disk. In vitro antagonistic activity against F. solani, F. oxysporium and R. solani, revealed a considerable diversity of antagonism. Many isolates were significantly reduced mycelial growth of F. solani (57%). Some isolates showed a good degree of antagonism against F. oxysporium (60%) while such activity against R. solani were varied from 0.0 to 56.5%. Partial-length of 16S rRNA gene (~ 1200 bp) was amplified and sequenced from two isolates, AM-15 and AM-26, that displayed a substantial antagonistic activity against studied pathogens.
