Biodegradation of Petroleum Hydrocarbons by Isolated from Contaminated Soil in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Currently, the bioremediation of petroleum hydrocarbons employs microbial biosurfactants because of their public acceptability, biological safety, and low cost. These organisms can degrade or detoxify organic-contaminated areas, such as marine ecosystems. The current study aimed to test the oil-biodegradation ability of the fungus , which was isolated from contaminated soil samples in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Sunlight-Mediated Green Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles Using the Berries of (Red Currants): Characterisation and Evaluation of Their Antifungal and Antibacterial Activities.

Plants are a treasure trove of several important phytochemicals that are endowed with therapeutic and medicinal properties. L. (red currants) are seasonal berries that are widely consumed for their nutritional value and are known for their health benefits.

Antifungal, Antibacterial, and Cytotoxic Activities of Silver Nanoparticles Synthesized from Aqueous Extracts of Mace-Arils of .

In the present study, mace-mediated silver nanoparticles (mace-AgNPs) were synthesized, characterized, and evaluated against an array of pathogenic microorganisms. Mace, the arils of , are a rich source of several bioactive compounds, including polyphenols and aromatic compounds. During nano synthesis, the bioactive compounds in mace aqueous extracts serve as excellent bio reductants, stabilizers, and capping agents.

Postharvest disease management of spots on tomato fruit by fruit extracts.

The aim of this study was to assess L. fruit extracts as an alternative to synthetic fungicide against (Fries) Keissler, the causative agent of black spots of tomato fruit. Antifungal activities of pulp and seed extracts were tested both and The seed extracts were more potent at inhibiting than the pulp extracts.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi regulate the oxidative system, hormones and ionic equilibrium to trigger salt stress tolerance in L.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) association increases plant stress tolerance. This study aimed to determine the mitigation effect of AMF on the growth and metabolic changes of cucumbers under adverse impact of salt stress. Salinity reduced the water content and synthesis of pigments.
