The effect of Eucalyptus camaldulensis leaf extracts from different environmental harvesting locations on Plasmodium chabaudi-induced malaria outcome

Abstract

Materials and methods Preparation of Eucalyptus camaldulensis extracts (ECE)Leaves were collected from plants growing in muddy and sandy habitats in Qassim, Saudi Arabia. A specialist from King Saud University's herbarium identified the plant. The leaves were air-dried before being ground into powder. The powdered leaves' constituents were then extracted with 70% methanol (Lubbad et al., 2015) . Distilled water was used to dilute ECE from muddy (ECEM) and sandy (ECES) samples for subsequent experiments.
