“…Sorting before the storage of crops is essential (Fandohan et al, 2005) since in large storage facilities the mold infestation can spread more easily between the different portions of the harvested crops (Hell et al, 2000;Williams et al, 2014). On the other hand, the correct cleanliness of the storage buildings is also critical (Adda et al, 2011), since if the storage conditions are not correct or even favorable for the growing and spreading of mold, it could lead to huge economical and financial losses or even medical crises (Hussein and Brasel, 2001;Khlangwiset and Wu, 2010). Inappropriately chosen storage parameters like concomitantly high temperature and humidity can propagate mold infestations.…”

Background: A atoxins are major contaminants of feed used in poultry industry that negatively affect animal and human health. In Ethiopia, previous studies on a atoxins mainly considered cattle feed and milk, but scarce information exists for poultry feeds. Method: The aim of this study was to determine the burden of a atoxin in poultry feed in bishoftu.Cross sectional study was conducted from December, 2018 to May, 2019and 33 compound poultry feed samples were randomly collected from chicken rearing villages of Bishoftuand analyzed for G2, G1, B2 , B1 and total a atoxins using HPLC. Results: The result indicated thatfrom a total of 33 samples 31(94%) samples were contaminated with a atoxin. The mean level of a atoxin G2, G1, B2, B1 and total a atoxinswere 18.00 µg/g, 88.5499 µg/g, 13.50µg/g, 70.11µg/g and 190.18µg/g respectively. This study curtained the level of a atoxinin 25 (72.75%) samples for AFT and 22 (66.67%) samples for AFB1 were above the limit of FDA regulatory levels of 20µg/g for poultry feed. Conclusion: The study showed the high contamination of a atoxins in poultry feed. The study warrants the need for preventive strategies of a atoxin contamination including implementation of regulatory legislation in poultry feeds in Bishoftu.

The present study was carried out to identify the chemical composition and antimicrobial activity of Hyptis suaveolens Poit. seed oil from Kalagarh region (Uttarakhand State, India). Gas Chromatograph Mass Spectrum (GC-MS) analysis of the seed oil suggested high amounts (86.96 %) of unsaturated fatty acids: linoleic acid (76.13 %), oleic acid (10.83 %) compared to saturated fatty acids i.e. palmitic acid (6.55 %), stearic acid (4.56 %) and heptacosanoic acid (1.94 %) as the main constituents. The oil (1 mg/ml to 0.125 mg/ml) was detrimental to the growth of bacterial and fungal strains tested. Among them Salmonella typhi MTCC 531 (9.92±0.08 mm), Pseudomonas aeruginosa MTCC 424 (10.22±0.11 mm), Lactobacillus plantarum MTCC 2621 (10.92±0.09 mm) and Candida tropicalis MTCC 229 (8.11 ± 0.07 mm) were susceptible at lower concentration (0.125 %). Escherichia coli MTCC 443, Shigella flexnerii MTCC 1457 and Vibrio vulnificus MTCC 1145 were sensitive only at higher concentrations (0.5 and 1 %) tested. The bioactivity of 1 mg/ml seed oil against C. tropicalis MTCC 229 was comparable to Fluconazole control (25 μg). On the contrary Enterococcus fecalis MTCC 439 and Streptococcus fecalis MTCC 3378 were resistant to the seed oil treatment. Minimum Inhibition Concentrations (MIC) were found to be 0.125 mg/ml for S. typhi, and P. aeruginosa, L. plantarum and C. tropicalis, while it was 0.2 mg/ml for L. leishmanii, S. aureus and C. albicans. The observations indicate that the H. suaveolens seed oil possess appreciable antimicrobial properties against Gram negative bacteria tested and can be further studied for the mode of action and further lead as a natural antibiotic.

“…However, one of the species Hyptis suaveolens Poit distributed throughout the tropics and subtropics, along the rail tracks, roadsides (Mishra and Verma, 1992), foothills of open forests, forest clearings (Mudgal et al, 1997) and also in the fallow lands. H. suaveolens has many medicinal properties and used for several ethnobotanical applications (Adda et al, 2011). For example, leaf decoction is used for the treatment of diabetes (Abdullahi et al, 2003) and cancer (Danmalam et al, 2009), and root decoction is highly valued as appetizer.…”

“…Moreover, these organs contain urosolic acid, a natural HIV-integrase inhibitor (Chatterjee and Pakrashi, 1997). In addition, the leaves and twigs are considered as antispasmodic, antirheumatic, anti-inflammatory, antifertility agents (Kirtikar and Basu, 1991), and also have antiseptic, mosquitocidal and insecticidal properties (Shenoy et al, 2009;Adda et al, 2011). The leaves of H. suaveolens contain alkaloids, terpenes and volatile oils (Gills, 1992).…”

The present study was conducted to explore the allelopathy of Hyptis suaveolens Poit, an important medicinal plant of Lamiaceae family. The aqueous methanol extracts of this plant at four different concentrations (3, 10, 30 and 100 mg dry weight [DW] equivalent extract/mL), were examined on the seedling growth of eight test plant species, cress (Lepidum sativum L.), lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.), alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.), rapeseed (Brassica napus L.), timothy (Phleum pratense L.), crabgrass (Digitaria sanguinalis L. scop.), barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crus-galli L.) and Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam.), and on the germination of cress and Italian ryegrass. The germination of cress, Italian ryegrass and the growth of all eight test species were significantly inhibited by the H. suaveolens plant extracts at a concentration greater than 3, 30 and 10 mg DW equivalent extract/mL, respectively. The inhibitory activity of the extracts was concentration dependent. The root growth of all the test plants was more sensitive to the extracts than the hypocotyl/coleoptile growth of those. The concentrations required for 50% inhibition (defined as I 50 ) of the hypocotyl/coleoptile and root growth of the eight test plant species range from 9.3-79.3 and 4.9-29.5 mg DW equivalent extract/mL, respectively. The hypocotyl growth of lettuce and the root growth of crabgrass were most sensitive to the extract, whereas coleoptile growth of barnyardgrass and the root growth of alfalfa were the least sensitive. The inhibitory activities of the H. suaveolens on the germination and growth of the test plant species suggest that the plant has allelopathic potentiality and may possess allelochemicals. These allelochemicals might be responsible for the restricted growth of other plant species near their colony in natural ecosystems. However, isolation and identification of these allelochemicals from H. suaveolens plant extracts could serve as the lead for new natural herbicides development for sustainable weed management strategies.
