Antibacterial property of Atuna racemosa Rafin. Chrysobalanaceae shell and kernel extracts- IJB

Source: internet
By: Jinebeth S. Pacaña, Van Ryan Kristopher R. Galarpe

Abstract
This research evaluated the antibacterial potential of the aqueous, ethyl acetate, methanol, and decocted extracts of the shell and kernel of Atuna racemosa Rafin. Chrysobalanaceae (tabon-tabon). 
The antimicrobial screening was done against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus by paper disc diffusion method. The A. racemosa shell and kernel showed resistant to intermediate antimicrobial activity against E. coli and S. aureus in aqueous extracts with mean zone of inhibition of 7.7 mm and 9.8 mm, ethyl acetate extracts with 9.2 mm and 12.8 mm, methanol extracts with 9.5 mm and 13.2 mm, and decoction extracts with 7.3 mm and 11.0 mm, respectively. Ethyl acetate extracts with the highest antibacterial activity against E. coli obtained minimum inhibitory concentration values of 0.11375 mg/mL in shell and 2.92 mg/mL in kernel for both bacterial strains. Methanol extracts with the highest antibacterial activity against S. aureus obtained minimum inhibitory concentration values of 0.81375 mg/mL in shell for both test organisms, and 8.57 mg/mL for E. coli and 2.138 mg/mL for S. aureus in kernel. Overall, the ethyl acetate and methanol extracts of A. racemosa kernel showed good antibacterial potential against bacterial strains. Further investigation is needed to determine the bioactive components present in these extracts.

Abstract
Gastropods have never been studied in Punjab, Pakistan with reference to its diversity and distribution. Different ecological factors have been studied which affect the distribution of the snail in the agroecosystem of this region. Total number of 19290 snails specimens, were collected from different cropland areas of 24 villages of Faisalabad including sugarcane, wheat, fodder, vegetables fields and ditches. The specimens were identified on the basis of recent identification keys and diagrammatic description provided in them to understand the biodiversity in this region. The diversity index was found highly significant in sugarcane, wheat, fodder, and vegetables fields however the results were non-significant in case of ditches. The relative abundance was maximum in sugarcane and least in ditches. The diversity index was significantly high in all months except in April whereas the relative abundance was maximum in July and August. It can be concluded that due to environmental degradation and water pollution the snail diversity is non significant, in ditches however in the agroecosystem it is a pest. It can be suggested that strategies must be developed to control water quality deterioration and its biological control as a pest.Get the full articles at: http://bit.ly/22b673z

Effects of some environmental factors on annual weed shepherd's purse (Capsella bursa-pastoris (L.) Medik.) - JBES An Open Access Research Journals


By Rouhollah Amini
Department of Plant Ecophysiology, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Tabriz, Tabriz, 5166616471, Iran

Key words: Germination, Drought, Salinity, Seedling dry weight, Shepherd's purse.

Abstract


Shepherd's purse (Capsella bursa-pastoris (L.) Medik.) is an annual weed species with a wide distribution in cereals of East Azarbaijan, Iran. Tow experiments were carried out based on randomised complete block design with four replications in Tabriz, Iran in 2014 to evaluate the effects of salinity and drought stress on shepherd's purse germination and early seedling growth. The salinity levels were included 0, 4, 8, 12, 16 and 20 dS m-1 (deci Siemens per meter) sodium chloride (NaCl). The drought stress levels were included 0,-0.4,-0.8,-1.2,-1.6 and-2.0 MPa osmotic potentials were obtained by polyethylene glycol 8000 as osmotica.


Results indicated that the effect of salinity was significant on seedgermination percentage and rate, seedling root and shoot length and seedling dry weight. The all traits reduced significantly by increasing the salinity level. In salinity of 20 dS m-1 the germination% of shepherd's purse was < 35 and the seedling dry weight reduced 65% in comparison with control (0 dS m-1). Also the effect of drought stress was significant on seed germination, seedling length and seedling dry weight and all the traits decreased by increasing the osmotic potential. The germination% of shepherd's purse seeds in osmotic potential of-2.0 MPa was < 32 and the reduction in seedling dry matter was > 60%. Generally, it could be concluded that drought stress such as limited irrigation and salinity would be effective strategy for reduction in germination and early seedling growth of this annual weed species.

The River Ravi has subject to severe disturbances due to contaminants discharge of untreated industrial wastes and domestic sewage. This study was planned to assess the status of heavy metals Copper (Cu), chromium (Cr), cadmium (Cd) and cobalt (Co) in water and indian major carp (Catla catla) collected from the sampling station, Baloki Headworks.
The results showed significant differences among six fish organs viz. Gills, kidney, liver, skin,muscle and scales. Accumulation of Cu in all the six fish organs showed significant difference. Fish liver was the organ that accumulated significantly higher quantities of these metals followed by that of kidney and scales. The magnitude of heavy metals in both river stretch and tributary waters were Cu > Cr > Cd > Co while in the fish tissue the elements decreased in the order Cu > Cr >Co> Cd.
The correlation coefficient between the metals toxicity of Catla catla body organs and water was positively significant. The result of this study indicated that the metals present in the river system were taken up by Catla catla through water, sediments and food, regardless of their biological needs, showed higher metal concentrations.

    Malang, East Java, Indonesia
Indonesia has at least 47 types of ecosystems, one of ecosystems that have a lot of potential in Indonesia is a mangrove forest. Mangrove forests in Indonesia have a high diversity of flora and fauna. Development and utilization of coastal areas around the mangrove forest, usually not done wisely that is likely to endanger the stability of the mangrove ecosystem in the long term.
One alternative utilization of mangrove forests that could be developed without damaging the environment is the development of ecotourism. Mangrove forest in Pancer Cengkrong Karanggandu is one of the mangrove forest areas with the potential to be developed into a tourist area of mangrove.
The purpose of this research is to study the potential and preferences of flora and fauna (birds) in the Cengkrong Mangrove Forest as a tourist attraction in the development ecotourism programs with community participation. Stakeholders involved in the study consisted of mangrove forest communities, students of nature lovers and a science teacher with a total of 135 people. Data analysis was performed with the help of Microsoft Excel and analyzed descriptively further showed form of graphs.
Result showed that Cengkrong mangrove forests has the potential to be used as ecotourism. Diversity of flora found in the mangrove forest is composed of 22 species with the highest RFC index is Brugueira gymnoriza. While the diversity of bird species found to consist of 21 species with the highest RFC index is Laptoptilus javanicus.
