“…(Rahman et al, 2005) The antimicrobial activity of curry extracts is proportional to the concentration used and growth inhibition has been reported against species, such as Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli with a less minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) than compared to other species such as Staphylococcus aureus and Micrococcus luteus. From these studies, E.coli has been determined as the most resistant microorganism and higher concentrations of curry are required for its inhibition (Vats et al, 2011).…”

Spices are parts of plants that due to their properties are used as colorants, preservatives or medicine. The uses of spices have been known since long time, and the interest in the potential of spices is remarkable due to the chemical compounds contained in spices, such as phenylpropanoids, terpenes, flavonoids and anthocyanins. Spices, such as cumin (cuminaldehyde), clove (eugenol) and cinnamon (cinnamaldehyde) among others, are known and studied for their antimicrobial and antioxidant properties due to their main chemical compounds. are comparable to regular chemical antioxidants used so they can be used as a natural alternative to synthetic preservatives. In this review, the main characteristics of spices will be described as well as their chemical properties, different applications of these spices and the advantages and disadvantages of their use.

“…The antiplasmodial activity of the plant extract reported in this study may be due to interactions between one or more group of the phytochemicals present in the extract. Several class of phytochemicals have been described in the field of antiplasmodials such as terpenoids, alkaloids, phenolic compounds including flavonoids and quinones (Oliveira et al, 2009;Adeleke et al, 2014;Tonukari et al, 2015;Aganbi et al, 2017;Vats et al, 2011;Tanaka et al, 2011).

ABSTRACT:The exploration of natural products for the treatment of malarial has been the main focus of scientists in the past decades. In this research, the phytochemical constituents, antimalarial effect, and chemopreventive capacity of aqueous leaf extract of Bambusa vulgaris in malaria parasitized mice was investigated. A total of 30 male mice, grouped into six (n=5), was used. The results obtained showed that B. vulgaris is rich in flavonoid (262.08 µg CE/g) and phenol (0.91 g AAE/ 100 g). There was significant reduction on the activities of serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and Gamma glutarmyl-transferase (GGT) upon treatment as compared with the control groups (P<0.05). Concentration of total bilirubin (TB), direct bilirubin (DB) and serum electrolytes (sodium, calcium, phosphorus and chloride) decreased in treated groups; serum urea, creatinine and uric acid also reduced significantly as against the control groups (P<0.05). The hepatoprotection and renal function restoration observed upon the administration of the plant extract indicate to a far reaching end that B. vulgaris leaf extract would be a promising natural antimalarial product devoid of side effects upon use, especially when administered within the dose range of 100 -200 mg/Kg body weight investigated in this study.

“…Previous studies have reported on the antimicrobial activities of extracts obtained from various parts of M. koenigii [36,37]. In our study, we determined the active compounds in extracts from leaves of M. koenigii via bioassay-guided fractionation in the first step of the discovery of potential antibacterial compounds for use against F. columnare and S. iniae.…”

From the ethyl acetate extract of Murraya koenegii (Rutaceae) leaves, isomahanine (1) and mahanine (2) were isolated that showed antibacterial activity towards Flavobacterium columnare and Streptococcus iniae which caused columnaris disease and streptococcosis respectively. Isomahanine was found to have the strongest activity against F. columnare (isolate ALM-00-173) and S. iniae (isolate LA94-426) based on 24-h 50% inhibition concentration (IC 50) and minimum inhibition concentration (MIC). Although compound (7), a nicotinamide isolated from Amyris texana had the lowest MIC (2.8 ± 0 mg/L) of any of the test compounds against F. columnare, the 24-h IC 50 of 14.8 ± 0.6 mg/L was higher than that of isomahanine and subsequently the 24-h IC 50 RDC values for (7) were almost a magnitude of order higher than those obtained for isomahanine. Isomahanine also had the strongest activity against S. iniae, with a 24-h IC 50 of 1.3 ± 0.1 mg/L and MIC of 3.5 ± 0 mg/L, respectively.
