“…Aloe vera (i.e., Aloe barbadensis) is a perennial, stemless succulent herb that is widely distributed in tropical and semitropical regions. The genus Aloe consists of more than 300 varieties, but A. vera is the most popular species and contains more than 70 bioactive compounds (Langmead et al 2004), including saponin, flavonoids, tannins, anthraquinones, and alkaloids (Patel et al 2012). Some of these bioactive constituents are believed to impair fertility or cause miscarriage in humans and animals if overdosed or misused (Volger and Ernst 1999).…”

We evaluated the hypothesis that administering dietary Aloe vera to sexually undifferentiated fry of genetically improved farmed Nile Tilapia Oreochromis niloticus for 30 d would affect their sex ratio. Five experimental treatments were designed, including a control and 100% A. vera powder incorporated into the feed at 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, and 4.0%. After 30 d of feeding, the experimental diets were replaced with a commercial diet, which was administered to the fish for another 42 d to attain the size at which sex determination was possible. Based on logistic regression analysis, an increase in the A. vera inclusion level from 1.0% to 4.0% resulted in a significantly greater percentage of males compared to the control and the 0.5% A. vera inclusion level, with the 4.0% A. vera group presenting potent masculinization effects (67.62% male). However, the survival percentage among fish that received 4.0% A. vera was significantly lower than survival in the other groups. The present results indicate that A. vera extracts have the potential to be used as sex-reversal agents in Nile Tilapia culture, but additional studies are necessary.

“…HPTLC is an important semi-quantitative and quantitative tool for the phytochemical analysis of herbal drugs and formulations. The major advantage being a parallel screening of several samples can be done 29 . For example, phytochemical analysis of Strychnos nux-vomica extract through HPTLC helped in analyzing their phytoconstituents and identification of medically relevant compounds 30 .…”

Background: Asparagus racemosus is a climber shrub used in Indian medicine for centuries. It has been used as galactogogue and nerve tonic in folk medicine. The recent research on A. racemosus has revealed its disease fighting properties such as anti-bacterial, immunomodulatory, cardio protective, anti-stress, etc. Phytochemicals present in the plants are associated with their therapeutic capabilities. Hence, phytochemical screening of a therapeutic plant is essential. Materials and Methods: A preliminary qualitative screening of phytoconstituents present in the ethanol and aqueous extract of the plant was done. high-performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC) was used to create a phytochemical fingerprint of the plant extract. Further, a series of antioxidant assays, i.e., 2,2-diphenyl-1picrylhydrazyl (DDPH) radical, Nitric oxide (NO) radical, Superoxide (SO) radical and 2,2'-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging assays were done. Results: The phytochemical screening and the HPTLC fingerprint showed the presence of phenolic compounds, flavonoids, glycosides, triterpenoids, saponins etc. They also showed free radical scavenging property and hence can be used as potential primary antioxidant. Conclusion: A preliminary screening created a phytochemical profile of A. racemosus extracts. These phytoconstituents may be linked to the various known therapeutic applications of the plant. This may aid in further extensive studies for identifying and isolating compounds with potential therapeutic value in A. racemosus.

“…Oral administration of Aloe vera causes detoxification of H 2 O 2 and its subsequent decomposition into H 2 O andO 2 mainly by elevating antioxidant profile of CAT, GPx, etc. to a significant extent [158,159]. Thus Aloe vera has been found to be potential candidate for alleviating DN, a global cause of mortality and morbidity, by reducing oxidative damage and modulating antioxidant enzymes.…”
