  • The Inhibitory Effect of Some Iranian Plants Extracts on the Alpha Glucosidase
    Iranian Journal of Basic Medical Sciences Vol. 11, No. 1, Spring 2008, 1 - 9 Received: Mar 2, 2008; Accepted: May 17, 2008 The Inhibitory Effect of Some Iranian Plants Extracts on the Alpha Glucosidase *1Ahmad Gholamhoseinian, 1Hossein Fallah, 2Fariba Sharifi-far, 3Mansour Mirtajaddini Abstract Objective Diabetes mellitus is manifested by hyperglycaemia. Different treatments such as diets and drugs are recommended for diabetes control. For various reasons in recent years traditional plant (herbal) therapies as prescribed by indigenous systems of medicine with different mechanisms have commonly been used. The digestive enzymes such as alpha glucosidase are among these herbal remedies. Materials and Methods One hundred species of plants were collected or purchased from the Medicinal Herbal Markets and botanically identified. Methanolic and aqueous extracts were prepared by the maceration method. The enzymatic activities of alpha glucosidase were determined colorimetrically by monitoring the release of p-nitrophenol from the appropriate p-nitrophenol glycoside substrate, after 30 mins incubation at 37 6C in the phosphate buffer (pH= 6.8). Results Among 200 prepared extracts, Verbascum kermanensis , Rosa damascene, Rosmarinus officinalis , Levisticum officinale , Zataria multiflora Sanguisorba minor , Alhagi camelorum , Pistacia vera , Vaccinium arcto- staphylus, Zhumeria majdae, Alpinia officinarum , Salvadora persica, and Thymus serpyllum showed more than 50% inhibitory effect on the alpha glucosidase. Conclusion These active plants have

  • Bioactivity of Two Extracts from Alpinia Officinarum Rhizome Against Tribolium Castaneum (Herbst) Adults

Accepted 1 February, 2012 The bioactivities of two solvent plant extracts prepared from Alpinia officinarum Hance rhizome, a traditional Chinese herbal plant were investigated against Tribolium castaneum (Herbst) adults in the laboratory. The rhizome extracts were prepared by n-hexane and methylene chloride extraction. Both extracts had significant repellent activity against T. castaneum adults with over 89% at class V at the dosage of 0.10 µl/cm 2 and above after 24 h exposure. The repellent activity significantly increased with increased exposure dosage. Both extracts also had strong fumigant activity against T. castaneum adults with over 80.0% mortality at the highest dosage tested of 80 µl/l air after 48 h of exposure. Mortality was dose dependent for both extracts. Regardless of extraction method A. officinarum rhizome extracts were demonstrated to have bioactivity against T. castaneum adults. These results suggest that the A. officinarum rhizome extracts have potential for integrated pest management programs of T. castaneum population. Key words: Alpinia officinarum rhizome extract, Tribolium castaneum (Herbst), fumigant activity, repellent activity, plant extract.

Ten well-known medicinal plants cultivated and grown under African environmental conditions (temperature, relative humidity, irradiance, photoperiod, wind and soil properties, etc) were extracted with methanol. Themethanolic extracts of these plants were screened for their antileishmanial, cytotoxic and free radical scavenging activities. The methanol extract of Colchicum autumnale and Alpinia officinarum showed high antileishmanial activity (IC5061.85±2.09 and 66.42±1.60 µg/ml, respectively). A. officinarum exhibited the most potent cytotoxicity (IC50 8.66±2.30 and 3.66±1.52 µg/ml against Hep G2 and A549, respectively). Rosa damascena, A. officinarum, and Humulus lupulus showed potent DPPH radical scavenging activity with IC50 values (2.0±0.23, 11.50±2.17, 14.0±2.0 µg/ml, respectively).

Heuer beschlos- sen wir noch weitere Vertreter genauer unter die Lupe zu nehmen und, im Gegensatz zu vergangenem Jahr, nicht in Töpfen, sondern in Erde im Folientunnel zu kultivieren. Alle Ingwergewächse werden vegetativ über Rhi- zome vermehrt und sie erheben Anspruch an hohe Luftfeuchtigkeit während der gesamten Kulturdau- er. Die Anzucht von Ingwer und Curcuma erfolgte Anfang März. Es wurde Konsumware aus dem Le- bensmitteleinzelhandel für die Anzucht verwendet. Dafür wurden die Rhizome in Teilstücke mit 2 Augen geteilt und in Substrat gelegt (siehe Foto rechts). Von den anderen Gattungen wurden Jungpflanzen erworben.
