Oral candidiasis (OC) is a fungal infection caused by an opportunistic fungi , which is found in the normal flora of healthy people. In this study, we examined the anti- effect of green synthesized silver nanoparticles using leaf extract of (EG-AgNPs) against in vitro and in vivo. EG-AgNPs were synthesized for the first time using extract and characterized by imaging (transmission electron microscopy (TEM), UV-VIS spectroscopy, zeta potential, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Energy dispersive x-ray analysis (EDX), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR).

Medicinal plants are sources of natural antioxidants thanks to their secondary metabolites. Previous studies showed that administration of (EG) ( family) was found to alleviate the deleterious effects of obesity-induced damage on liver, heart and kidney. This study, carried out on adult male Wistar rats, evaluates the inhibitory effects of supplementation with extract on obesity.

The paper presents experimental results concerning the ultrasonically-assisted extraction of bioactive compounds from roots. A comparison with conventional methodology is presented, and thereby the phytochemical composition and the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities of extracts are evaluated. The phenolic profile of extracts was analyzed by TOF-LC-MS-MS.

The present work aimed at studying pollution of traffic-related heavy metals (HMs) in roadside soils and their uptake by the Mediterranean native species Erodium glaucophyllum L., growing along Gabès-El Hamma highway, Gabès (Tunisia). Here, heavy metals were analyzed in soils and in plant roots and shoots along different distances from the highway edge.

A field study was conducted along a fluorine gradient of soil pollution in Tunisia from Gabes, the most polluted site, to Smara, the reference site. Variations of fluoride (F) concentrations in soils were detected over 1 year in Gabes, Skhira, and Smara. F concentrations in the aerial part of two native plant species, i.
