“…It has been experimentally shown that the plant several various bioactivities such as antimicrobial (Shafi et al, 2002;Umamaheshwari & Muthy, 2012;Venkateswarlu et al, 2013), antioxidant (Thirugnanasampandan et al, 2008;Hossen et al, 2014), inhibition of drug induced hyperuricemia (Ramachandran et al, 2008), anthelmintic (Mini et al, 2013), antihyperglycemic (Shanmugam et al, 2014), antidiarrheal (Dharmalingam et al, 2014), antiinflammatory (Mathew et al, 2011), antipruritic (Mathew et al, 2011), mast cell stabilizing (Mathew et al, 2011) and immunomodulatory (Mallaiah et al, 2015) activity. In the present study, we determined antimicrobial and radical scavenging efficacy of leaf and flower extract of A. indica.…”

“…The essential oil (Shafi et al, 2002), leaf and stem extract (Vaghasiya and Chanda, 2007;Kumar et al, 2011;Murugan and Mohan, 2012), root extract (Umamaheshwari and Muthy, 2012;Gopinath and Prakash, 2013) have shown antimicrobial activity. Butanolic extract of A. indica exhibited marked inhibitory effect against L. monocytogene, a cattle pathogen (Ravikumar et al, 2005).…”

The present study was performed to screen antibacterial, antifungal and radical scavenging efficacy of leaf and flower extract of Antibacterial and antifungal activity was evaluated by agar well diffusion and poisoned food technique respectively. Radical scavenging potential was determined by DPPH free radical scavenging assay. Overall, Leaf extract and flower extract displayed stronger antibacterial and antifungal activity respectively. Leaf extract was found to scavenge DPPH radicals more effectively when compared to flower extract. In suitable form, the plant can be used against microbial infections and oxidative stress.

“…Prior to this study, in vitro methods for Aristolochia indica, a species valued for medicinal use (Shafi et al 2002), were developed using axillary shoot multiplication and shoot organogenesis to provide source tissue for the purification of secondary metabolites (Remashree et al 1997;Soniya and Sujitha 2006). Here we report the development of methods for micropropagation and shoot regeneration of two genotypes of A. fimbriata, a species with a small genome size (Bharathan et al 1994) and promising characteristics for use as a basal angiosperm model system, such as short generation time and small size.…”

Aristolochia fimbriata is a small herbaceous perennial in the basal angiosperm family Aristolochiaceae. The family contains diverse floral forms ranging from radial to monosymmetric flowers with a wide variety of insect pollinators. Additionally, Aristolochia species contain secondary metabolites that are important natural toxins and traditional medicines, and are critical to the reproduction of swallowtail butterflies. These characteristics, in combination with the small genome size and short life cycle of A. fimbriata, have prompted further development of this species as a model system to study the evolution of basal angiosperms. As a prerequisite for developing a genetic transformation procedure for Aristolochia, we developed protocols for in vitro plant multiplication, shoot organogenesis, rooting, and acclimation of tissue culturederived plants. Two varieties of Aristolochia were multiplied in vitro and rooted with 100% efficiency. Shoot regeneration was achieved within 1 month of culture initiation from whole leaf, internodal stem, and petiole explants. The highest regeneration success (97%) was recorded for stem explants. Regenerated and rooted shoots were acclimated to greenhouse conditions and developed flowers within 4 weeks of transplanting.

“…Many Aristolochia species from Aristolochiaceae are used in traditional and folk medicines in many countries as anti-inflammatory agents for arthritis, gout, rheumatism and diuresis (Jiangsu New Medicinal College, 1977; Zhonghua Bencao Committee of State Traditional Chinese Medicine Administration, 1999; Wu et al, 2001;Shafi et al, 2002). Among the plants of Aristolochiaceae both aristolochic acids (AAs) and aristololactams (ALs) are found, although the latter also occur in Annonaceae, Menispermaceae, Piperaceae (Choudhury et al, 2001;Mix et al, 1982), Monimiaceae and Saururaceae plants (Mix et al, 1982).…”

An HPLC method was developed for the simultaneous determination of five aristolochic acids (AAs) and two aristololactams (ALs) in the following six Chinese drugs derived from Aristolochia species. Samples were analyzed on a C 18 column with acetonitrile and 3.7 mM phosphoric acid buffer gradient elution, detected at 260 nm. Assay was linear over the range (µg/mL) 0.386-38.6 for aristolochic acid Va, 0.632-63.2 for aristolochic acid IVa, 0.200-20.0 for 9-hydroxy aristolochic acid I, 0.352-35.2 for aristololactam II, 0.296-29.6 for aristolochic acid II, 0.274-27.4 for aristololactam I and 3.12-312 for aristolochic acid I. Average recoveries (%) of samples were 102.0, 95.9, 99.2, 102.2, 97.2, 97.1 and 97.8 for these seven constituents, respectively. The detection limit and retention time for the seven constituents ranged from 10.0 to 15.8 ng/mL and from 12 to 21 min. As
