“…Among the plants tested, the aqueous extract of A. odoratissima showed highest TPC (532.5 mg GAE/100 μL) followed by A perusal of the literature revealed that, among the 42 plants screened only few plants were reported for their antimicrobial and antioxidant potencies. [26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40] Further, no reports are available pertaining to the antibacterial and antioxidant activities of solvent extracts of these plants. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report describing the antibacterial and antioxidant activities of the tested plants.…”

Background-The condition which has white colour patches in skin is known as 'Shvitra' in Ayurveda. In Modern science, this condition is described as a chronic disease condition and very difficult to treat with various treatment modalities. Among various formulations described in Ayurvedic classics, Savarnakara yoga is the first choice of many Ayurveda practitioners as Bakuchi (Psoralia corilifolia Linn.) and Haratala (Orpiment) are main ingredients of it. Aims and Objectives-It was planned to evaluate the efficacy of Savarnakara yoga in two different topical forms i.e. Lepa and ointment. Total 60 patients having classical signs and symptoms of Shvitra were selected and randomly divided into two groups. Savarnakara Lepa and Savarnakara Ointment were prescribed for local application in Group A and Group B respectively. 20ml Kanakabindvarishta with equal quantity of water was given twice a day after meal as internal medication in both groups. Results-In both the groups, statistically highly significant improvement was found in cardinal symptoms of Shvitra; but it was statistically insignificant when compared each other. Conclusion-Both the forms of Savarnakara yoga along with Kanakabindvarishta were found as a safe remedy in vitiligo with significant pigment regenerating capacity as topical use after the application of 2 months.

“…supported the fact that the organic solvents for plant extraction is better option as compared to water extract, as many components are extracted through organic solvents only (Gajera et al, 2005;Negi and Dave, 2010).The reason could be that the solubility of phytochemicals like flavonoids, terpenes (Harborne, 1973;Cunha et al, 2004) responsible for the biological properties of propolis (Cowan, 1999) was greater in ethanol as compared to other solvents because this extract gave the best results for parameters tested and recommended for further use. Earlier in vitro studies were supported the effectiveness of EEP as compared to other extract and this was due to the phytochemicals which are extracted well with ethanol as a solvent.…”

Present study focussed on the antibacterial and antioxidative effect of honey bee propolis on typhoid causing bacteria i.e. Salmonella. Water, ethanol, methanol were used as solvents for making of extracts. Both Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC) were calculated for all the three extracts. MIC of ethanolic extract of propolis was 160 mg/ml. It was 200 mg/ml for methanolic and 220mg/ml for water extracts respectively. Moreover, time kill analysis results confirmed that there was a significant reduction (p<0.05) in log count of bacteria when treated with ethanolic extraxt of propolis (3.98±0.15 log cfu/mL) and methanolic (4.66±0.05log cfu/mL) extract of propolis as compared to Salmonella control (7.72±0.03 log cfu/mL) in in-vitro experiments. For the in vivo studies, BALB/c mice was used as an murine model of typhoid. Levels of different liver marker enzymes and antioxidants like Lipid peroxidation (LPO) and Reduced Glutathione (GSH) were observed in infected and all the treated groups. By comparing the results, it was concluded that ethanolic extract of propolis showed maximum antimicrobial activity as compare to the rest two. So the results of present study encourages the potential of ethanolic extract of propolis as an alternative treatment for typhoid and its use in combination with standard antibiotics can also be explored.
