(Pers.) C.D. Adams and Crantz Exhibit Antibacterial Activity against Resistant Strains.

Typhoid fever, caused by , has plagued underdeveloped countries for many years. Recently, there has been a surge in strains identified to be multidrug-resistant in endemic areas. and have been reported to exhibit activity against ; however, this study aimed to investigate the effect of and against resistance strains of The leaves of the plants were extracted using distilled water (hot (A) and cold (A)), methanol (M), ethyl acetate, and petroleum ether.

Preliminary Screening for the Anthelmintic Activity of Harms and Its Modifying Effect on Albendazole.

Helminthic infections affect a greater proportion of the world's population. This study determined the anthelmintic activity of and its modifying effect on albendazole. Powdered leaves of were successively extracted with petroleum ether, ethyl acetate, and ethanol.

Cercaricidal Activity, Acute Toxicity, and GC/MS Analysis of Some Selected Ghanaian Medicinal Plants.

Schistosomiasis is a human parasitic disease caused by the species and is recognised in public health as second to malaria in terms of its socioeconomic impact on humans. Four local plants native to many tribes in Ghana and known for their medicinal properties against some diseases were assessed for their cercaricidal activity against cercariae. The plants, namely, stem bark (NLSB), stem bark (SCSB), leaves (MCL), and leaves (OVL), were extracted for their active metabolites using methanol.

Antimicrobial properties of Vahl ex DC.

Scientific research into developing new antimicrobials from plants continues to be an interesting area for many scientists. This is because the resistance of microorganisms to anti-infective agents has affected a wide range of conditions, some of which are life-threatening. This study aimed to investigate the antimicrobial properties of (CF).

Anti-trypanosomal and anthelminthic properties of ethanol and aqueous extracts of Tetrapleura tetraptera Taub.

Trypanosomosis and helminthosis, considered as part of neglected tropical diseases, are parasitic infections of public health importance, especially in Africa. Medicinal plants have been used in most parts of Africa, to treat these parasitic infections. The study aims to determine the anti-trypanosomal and anthelminthic properties of Tetrapleura tetraptera (fruit and stembark).
