A MEDICINAL PLANT OF SINDH, PAKISTAN SAMINA KABIR KHANZADA1*, AMINA KABIR KHANZADA1, WAZIR SHAIKH1 AND SYED ABID ALI2 1Institute of Plant Sciences, University of Sindh, Jamshoro, Pakistan; 2HEJ Research Institute of Chemistry, International Center for Chemical and Biological Sciences (ICCBS), University of Karachi, Karachi-75270, Pakistan; *Corresponding author: e-mail [email protected] Abstract In the present study, the seed extracts of Pithecellobium dulce Benth. was subjected for fatty acid analysis and 9 saturated and 17 unsaturated fatty acids were identified by (GC MS). Moreover, some essential and toxic elements (e.g. As, Cu, Cd, Fe, K, Mg, Na, Pb & Zn) were also measured in different concentrations (Zn & K being the highest (26.89 mg/kg) and Pb (0.19mg/kg) & As (17.6µg/kg) were the lowest in concentrations) justifying its medicinal applications. Total protein contents analyzed in different parts of P. dulce was highest in seeds ranging from 50.3-67.1%, stems 15.7%, roots 10.6%, leaves 13.7%, flowers 14.8%, and in fruits 10.50% as established by kjeldhal method. P.dulce plant was found to be a rich source of proteins, fatty acids and essential elements particularly seeds and can be exploited for human and animal consumptions. Introduction 1985; Zapesochnaya et al., 1980; Sugumaran et al., 2008a-b).

  • Evaluation of Phytochemical Analysis and Antioxidant and Antifungal Activity of Pithecellobium Dulce Leaves’ Extract
    Online - 2455-3891 Vol 10, Issue 1, 2017 Print - 0974-2441 Research Article EVALUATION OF PHYTOCHEMICAL ANALYSIS AND ANTIOXIDANT AND ANTIFUNGAL ACTIVITY OF PITHECELLOBIUM DULCE LEAVES’ EXTRACT SUMAN KUMARI* Department of Biochemistry, Maharshi Dayanand University, Rohtak, Haryana, India. Email: [email protected] Received: 07 October 2016, Revised and Accepted: 14 October 2016 ABSTRACT Objective: Diseases due to pathogenic fungi represent a critical problem to human health which is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Synthetic drugs such as Amphotericin B mitigate many of the side effects associated with liver and kidney dysfunctions. Widely distributed traditional medicinal plants-based antimicrobial drugs are cost effective in the treatment of infectious diseases having no side effects. Pithecellobium dulce (Roxb.) belongs to the family of Leguminosae, is an evergreen tree widely distributed in the greater part of India which has been widely used in traditional medicine, but lacks scientific scrutiny. The present study revealed P. dulce extract effectiveness against A. fumigates and Aspergillus niger and showed antioxidant activity. Methods: Leaves’ extract was prepared according to the polarity of solvent, i.e., hexane, chloroform, acetone, methanol, and water. Phytochemical analysis, antioxidant activity, and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) were tested against selected fungus. Results: Phytochemical analysis of the extract revealed the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, coumarin, tannins, anthocyanin, and triterpenoids. Methanol and water extract was found to contain significant amounts of alkaloids, phenols, and flavonoids. Methanolic extract showed MIC against tested fungus, and extract was further fractionated by solvent-solvent fractionation and MIC was tested. MIC for A. fumigatus was 0.62 mg/ml and for A.

  • Lepidoptera:Riodinidae) from Mexico and Texas1
    BULLETIN OF THE ALLYN MUSEUM Published by THE ALLYN MUSEUM OF ENTOMOLOGY Sarasota, Florida Number 32 17 February 1976 LARVAL FOODPLANTS AND LIFE HISTORY NOTES FOR SOME METALMARKS (LEPIDOPTERA:RIODINIDAE) FROM MEXICO AND TEXAS1 Roy O. KendallZ Route 4, Box 104·EB, San Antonio, Texas 78228 USA This is the third in a series of papers on reared Texas/Mexican Rhopalocera. The 2 earlier papers are: Kendall (1975) and Kendall & McGuire (1975). In this paper, rearing data are given for 14 species of riodinids, 7 of which are found also in Texas, and 2 of these (Apodemia chisosensis and Calephelis rawsoni) are known only from Texas at this time. It is interesting that no myrmecophilous associations have been observed with immatures of any of these 14 species; conversely, I have found many such associations in my rearing of lycaenids. Collections in Mexico were made in the same area as given in the 2 earlier papers; ca. 55 km radius from Ciudad Mante, Tamaulipas. For ease of reference, species are arranged alphabetically by genus within each subfamily (Euselastiinae, Riodininae). No attempt is made to give range distribution for the species except within Texas. Hoffmann (1940) gave general distribution of the species within Mexico. For the Calephelis species, McAlpine (1971) gave general distribution data. Although McAlpine cited several of my larval foodplant records, he gave no substantiating rearing data. Comstock & Vazquez (1961) did not find immature stages ofany riodinids in Mexico, but they did cite an earlier record for Lymnas pixe (Bdv.); Seitz (1924). The principal botanical references used are Standley (1920-1926) and Correll & Johnston (1970).

  • Trees in Singapore in 2017 GRAHAM BAKER Visited Singapore; the Following Are His Notes on Some of the Trees He Admired There
    Trees in Singapore In 2017 GRAHAM BAKER visited Singapore; the following are his notes on some of the trees he admired there. A city in a garden In June 1963, Lee Quan Yew planted a Mempat tree (Cratoxylum formosum), a pink flowering, medium-sized, native tree, marking the start of his initiative to transform Singapore into a garden city. Since then, so many trees have been planted that his dream has become a reality. High rise condominiums, hotels and offices are enveloped in a green forest comprised principally of two species: the magnificent Angsana Pterocarpus( indicus) a tall, awe inspiring tower of green, billowing elm-like at the top, a southeast Asia species; and the spreading South American rain tree (Samanea saman) festooned in a clothing of epiphytes. A variety of other species complete the ‘forest’ including Singapore’s native favourite, the Tembusu (Fagraea fragrans). This tall, neat tree flowers in spring and late autumn (although there are no seasons in Singapore!) with small- ish, cream, highly scented flowers. Yellow flame (Peltophorum pterocarpum) is here too: a tall, spreading, southeast Asian tree, with pinnate leaves and yellow flowers. Tropical trees, to flower spectacularly, need a spell of dry weather which 210 Singapore doesn’t have. So flowering is sporadic, a branch here, a tree there, at random times. So flowering was sparse when I visited: some yellow flame trees had a partly yellow crown, whilst tropical shrubs coloured the pavements, particularly the lovely red Caesalpinia pulcherrima (from tropical America) and yellow Cassia species. To see avenues of rain trees arching over the highway is a magnificent sight.
