Biogenic Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles Using and Its In Vivo Anti-Diabetic Effect against Alloxan-Induced Diabetic Wistar Rats.

: Type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a non-communicable, life-threatening syndrome that is present all over the world. The use of eco-friendly, cost-effective and green synthesised nanoparticles (NPs) as a medicinal therapy in the treatment of T2DM is an attractive option. Aim: The present study aimed to evaluate the anti-diabetic potential of the phyto-synthesised silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) obtained from plant methanolic extract.

Phytochemical Screening, In Vitro and In Silico Studies of Volatile Compounds from (Mill) Leaves Grown in Saudi Arabia.

The herbal plant () (Mill) is commonly available around the world. In this study, the leaves of the herbal plant were collected from the central region of Al-Kharj, Saudi Arabia, to explore their in vitro pharmacological activity. Essential oil from the leaves of was isolated using the hydrodistillation method.

Anti-Parkinson's evaluation of leaf extract and underlying mechanism of its phytochemicals.

: Parkinson's disease (PD) is associated with progressive neuronal damage and dysfunction. Oxidative stress helps to regulate neurodegenerative and neuronal dysfunction. Natural compounds could attenuate oxidative stress in a variety of neurological disorders.

Evaluation of the composition and in vitro antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory activities of Cilantro ( L. leaves) cultivated in Saudi Arabia (Al-Kharj).

Background: In the present study, we explored the composition of Cilantro ( L. leaves) essential oil (CEO) cultivated in Saudi Arabia (Al-Kharj) and explored its antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory effects in vitro.

Methods: Gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy was used to detect the CEO composition.

A new landmark for the identification of the facial nerve during parotid surgery: A cadaver study.

Objective: Precise knowledge of facial nerve anatomy is crucial for parotid surgery. Although several surgical landmarks to identify the facial nerve have been described in literature, their position is variable, inconsistent, and difficult to follow in some cases. The purpose of this study was to prove that the facial nerve trunk (FNT) is located midway between the mastoid tip (MT) and osteocartilaginous junction of the external auditory canal (EAC).

Quantitative determination of canagliflozin in human plasma samples using a validated HPTLC method and its application to a pharmacokinetic study in rats.

Canagliflozin (CNZ) is the first sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitor approved for treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. In the proposed work, a sensitive, rapid and validated high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) method was established for the estimation of CNZ in human plasma for the first time. HPTLC analysis of CNZ and internal standard (sildenafil) was performed on glass coated silica gel 60 F HPTLC plates using a binary mixture of chloroform-methanol 9:1 (%, v/v) as the mobile phase.

A simple extraction procedure for determination of total mercury in crude oil.

The determination of mercury in crude oil and petroleum products is particularly difficult due to the volatile nature of both mercury and the matrix, which may lead to significant loss of the analyte. A simple extraction method for total mercury has been developed to determine total mercury in crude oil using cold vapor atomic fluorescence spectrometry. The homogenized crude oil sample was diluted to 5, 10, and 20 % (w/w) in toluene.
