Physicochemical Characteristics and Antibacterial Activities of Freeze-Thawed Polyvinyl Alcohol/Andrographolide Hydrogels.

Andrographolide (AG) is one of the compounds in , which has a high antibacterial activity. This paper reports the freeze-thaw method's use to synthesize polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) hydrogels loaded with AG and its characterization. From the morphological examination, the porosity of the PVA/AG hydrogel was found to increase with the increasing AG concentration.

The influence of extraction methods on rutin yield of cassava leaves ( Crantz).

Rutin, a well-known bioflavonoid, was found abundantly in cassava leaves. In the present study, extraction techniques including maceration, boiling, reflux, ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE), and microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) were optimised to increase the yield of rutin. Extraction parameters such as solvents, solid-liquid ratio, temperature, and time were optimised to give better extraction yields for each method.

Optimization of genetic transformation of Artemisia annua L. Using Agrobacterium for Artemisinin production.

Background: Artemisinin, a sesquiterpene lactone endoperoxide isolated from the medicinal plant Artemisia annua L., is a choice and effective drug for malaria treatment. Due to the low yield of artemisinin in plants, there is a need to enhance the production of artemisinin from A.
