Guava leaf extract is utilized as an alternative natural reagent for quantification of iron. The flow injection technique enables the use of the extract in acetate buffer solution without the need of further purification. Some properties of the extract such as its stability and ability to form a colored complex with iron were studied. The proposed system is an environmentally friendly method for determination of iron with less toxic chemical wastes.

Background/objectives: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is considered a serious risk to public health since its prevalence is rapidly increasing worldwide despite numerous therapeutics. Insulin resistance in T2DM contributes to chronic inflammation and other metabolic abnormalities that generate fat accumulation in the liver, eventually leading to the progression of metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD). Recently, the possibility that microbial-derived metabolites may alleviate MAFLD through enterohepatic circulation has emerged, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear.

Currently, a global health crisis is being caused by microbial resistance, in which plays a crucial role, being considered the highest-priority microorganism by the World Health Organization (WHO) for discovering new antibiotics. As a result, phytochemicals have emerged as a potential alternative to combat resistant strains, since they can exert antimicrobial activity through various mechanisms and, at the same time, represent a more natural and safe option. This study analyzes the antimicrobial effects of guava leaf extract in ten clinical isolates of extensively drug-resistant (XDR) , using the agar diffusion technique and the microdilution method to determine the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs).

Aim: The aim of the study was to evaluate and compare the cytotoxicity of 25% of neem leaf extract (), 20% of guava leaf extracts (), and 20% of cinnamon extract () irrigants at three intervals of time.
Methodology: Four groups were formed ( = 15), Group 1 (control group) - normal saline solution, Group 2 - 25% of neem extract, Group 3 - 20% of guava extract, and Group 4 - 20% of cinnamon extract. Each group was further divided into three subgroups based on intervals ( = 5).
