On the other hand intensification increased the stress, occurrence of diseases, K e yw or ds introduction of new pathogens and application of the synthetic chemical substances to overcome these problems. Recently adoption of herbal Indian almond tree, medicine in aquaculture practices is becoming the trend due its advantages Herbal- biomedicine, over the chemical substances. Plants are storehouses and sources of safer Antimicrobial, and cheaper chemicals. Numerous herbal plants have been identified for its Anti-parasitic, and Antifungal anti-microbial, antifungal, anti-parasitic, growth promotion, appetite stimulation, immunostimulation and stress reducer properties. Indian Article Info almond tree (Terminalia catappa Linn.) is one among them. Tannin is the Accepted: major chemical component of T. catappa which exhibits the antimicrobial 17 June 2019 property. The reports on use of Indian almond leaves as herbal biomedicine Available Online: 10 July 2019 have been reviewed in the present article. The extensive work need to be done to optimize the dose and duration of treatment against the most common pathogens. Introduction Hormones, antibiotics and vitamins. Generally these chemical substances are Aquaculture is intensifying substantially in introduced into culture systems without recent years, along with the high production proper knowledge of dose, application there are several constrains in the methods, mode of action and degradation intensification such as crowding which leads capacity. This may cause the side effects to to stress and ends up with the outbreak of culture animal, residual accumulation in the disease and crop failure. To control these edible tissue and drug resistance in the disease outbreaks farmers are increasingly pathogens. Adverse effects of antibiotics using the chemical components such as made increased the interest of consumer to 2406 Int.J.Curr.Microbiol.App.Sci (2019) 8(7): 2406-2409 natural products (Fauci 1993).

This study aimed to evaluate the performance of turbidity removal in water by using Terminalia catappa (Talisay) as natural coagulant. The coagulation active agent in the leaves of Terminalia catappa was extracted with 1.0 molar (M) Sodium Chloride (NaCl) solution. Water from Cagayan River, Tuguegarao City, with increased turbidity of 200 Nephelometric Turbidity Units (NTU) was used in this study. This study was done using Completely Randomized Design with loading doses of 2, 3, 4, and 5 mL/L of the stock solution with 5 g of Terminalia catappa leaf powder in 100 mL 1.0 M NaCl solution as coagulant. The turbidity, pH, and coliform count were determined for all the samples. The turbidity for the samples ranged from log101.81 to log101.33 NTU. The 5 ml/L treatment of Terminalia catappa showed the lowest residual turbidity where 88% turbidity was removed from the sample. The pH values ranged from 7.27 to 7.46.

The two largest genera of the family are Combretum and Terminalia which contains the more no. of species. The members of the family are widely distributed in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Most members of the trees, shrubs or lianas of the combretaceae family are widely used medicinally. The members of this family contain the different phytoconstituents of medicinal value e.g tannins, flavonoids, terpenoids and alkaloids. Most of the species of this family are used as antimicrobial, antioxidant and antifungal. The biological activities of the some members of this family yet not found. Apart from the medicinal value many members of the Combretaceae are of culinary and ornamental value. Keywords: Combretaceae, Tannins, Flavonoid, Terminalia, Combretum. INTRODUCTION species of Combretum have edible kernels whereas Buchenavia species have edible succulent endocarps. he family combretaceae is a major group of Chemical constituents like tannins are also found in fruits, flowering plants (Angiosperms) included in the bark, leaves, roots and timber in buchenavia and order of Myrtales. Robert Brown established it in T terminalia genera. Many of the species are reputed to 1810 and its inclusion to the order is not in dispute.

  • Terminalia Catappa: West Indian-Almond1 Edward F
    ENH-784 Terminalia catappa: West Indian-Almond1 Edward F. Gilman, Dennis G. Watson, Ryan W. Klein, Andrew K. Koeser, Deborah R. Hilbert, and Drew C. McLean2 Introduction West Indian-almond is a 30 to 55-foot-tall, deciduous tree which forms a symmetrical, upright silhouette in youth with horizontal branches reaching 50 feet in width at maturity. The branches are arranged in obvious tiers, giving the tree a pagoda-like shape. As the tree grows older, the crown spreads and flattens on the top to form a wide- spreading vase shape. The large, 15-inch-long and six-inch- wide, shiny dark green, leathery leaves change to beautiful shades of red, yellow, and purple before dropping in winter. Due to their large size, these old leaves may be considered a nuisance to some people. The leaves are quickly replaced by new growth, so the tree is bare for only a short period of time. The inconspicuous, greenish-white, springtime blossoms appear in six-inch-long terminal clusters and are followed by the edible fruits. These drupes are 2 to 3-inches long and mature from green to yellow or red, or brown during the summer. The outside husk is corky fiber with an inner thin green flesh. The inside holds the edible, almond- like kernel. The fruit is high in tannic acid and this could stain cars, pavement and sidewalks. It also causes significant litter on the ground. Figure 1. Full Form—Terminalia catappa: West Indian-almond 1. This document is ENH-784, one of a series of the Environmental Horticulture Department, UF/IFAS Extension.
