Objectives: This study covers the microscopic studies, the phytochemical screening, acute toxicity evaluation and anti-inflammatory activity of the methanol extract of the leaves of Sabiceabrevipes. This plant has not been studied extensively; even when such studies were done; the focus was on the root rather than the leaf, which is easier to harvest and more abundant. Method: Free hand sections were used for anatomical evaluation, powder microscopy was done with chloral hydrate and dilute glycerine, phytochemical studies was also done using standard procedures. Mice were used for acute toxicity test using Lorkes method. Wistar rat paws were used for anti-inflammatory studies using formalin and egg albumen models. SPSS was used to run an ANOVA with statistical significance at ...
Irrigants have traditionally been used in the root canal. Sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) is the most commonly used solution, because of its advantages; however, it is known to be toxic to periradicular tissues and can cause necrosis of support tissues and edema. The objective of this study is to compare the antimicrobial effect of Microdacyn 60®, OxOral®, and NaOCl 5.25% against Streptococcus sobrinus, Porphyromona gingivalis, Streptococcus intermedius, Tanerella forsytensis, and Enterococcus faecalis. Thirty-three extracted uniradicular teeth were inoculated with 10 µl of a mixture of anaerobic bacteria. After seven days, the samples were irrigated with the solutions and samples were taken. These were placed in an Eppendorf tube and incubated at 37°C. After seven days, a sample was taken for a bacterial count. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was performed to identify the bacteria present in the samples. Student´s t test and analysis of variance were used
As a coal, Pulcandi possesses the property of removing excess gastric and intestinal gas. Pulcandi powder has anti-diarrhea activity by decreasing intestinal fluid content and adsorbing microbes and toxins. The aim of this study was to demonstrate and to establish consequences of Pulcandi powder use on gastric acidity. For evaluating these consequences, it was investigated in vitro kinetic tests on acidity. These tests were followed by acidic dosages performed on Pulcandi aqueous extractions solutions. In this way, preparations were composed of 2.5 g powder mixed with 100 mL HCl acidic solutions. The study results revealed evident decrease of acidity with Pulcandi. However, the local concentration of protons impacted on this variation, which led to conclude that this coal do not increase pH when ulcers troubles don’t occur. Infra-Red analyses (IR-ATR) were also performed on Pulcandi powder. The results evidenced presence of nitrate and bicarbonate ions neutralized protons. Moreover, essential
