ABSTRACT Objective:The aim of this study was to assess the antimicrobial potency of aqueous extract of Psidium guajava leaves in two different concentrations as a toothbrush disinfectant against three oral bacterial species.Materials and Methods: Aqueous extracts of P. guajava leaves were prepared at 20% and 30% concentrations and 0.2% chlorhexidine was used as control. The toothbrushes were equally divided into 9 groups with 10 toothbrushes per disinfectant, which were contaminated with Streptococcus mutans, Lactobacillus acidophilus, and Enterococcus faecalis. Microbial culture was done after 5 min and 3 h of decontamination.Results: Group Ia and Ib showed that the presence of E. faecalis was observed in 8 (40%) of 20 toothbrushes. Group IIa and IIb showed a significant reduction in colony forming unit/toothbrush during 3 h evaluation. Group IIIa and IIIb showed nil growth during 3 h evaluation. Nil growth was observed with the control group for all three organisms. Statistically significant values were obtained for 5 min (P < 0.001) and 3 h (P < 0.001) disinfection period against L. acidophilus at two different concentrations.Conclusion: Aqueousextracts of guava leaves can be used as an alternative organic product for disinfection of toothbrushes.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui jenis pohon yang sesuai untuk rain garden, jumlah stomata, proporsi penutupan kanopi dan kandungan air dalam daun dari beberapa jenis pohon teduhan, serta hubungan antara jumlah stomata daun dengan luas daun, jika terdapat faktor proporsi kandungan air yang diduga mempengaruhi akan dikendalikan. Data yang diperoleh di analisis proporsi kandungan air dalam daun, proporsi penutupan kanopi, dan jumlah stomata dengan menggunakan analisis deskriptif. Untuk mengetahui hubungan antara luas daun, proporsi penutupan kanopi dan kandungan air dalam daun pada pohon teduhan digunakan analisis korelasi parsial dengan bantuan SPSS versi 17. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian terhadap kerapatan stomata dalam ukuran 1cm², diperolehlah 10 jenis pohon teduhan tertinggi seperti Psidium guajava (jambu biji), Mangifera casturi (kasturi), Hevea brasiliensis (karet), Pithecellobium lobatum (jengkol), Mangifera indica (mangga), Theobroma cacao (coklat), Persea americana (alpukat), Eugenia aquea (jambu air), Gnetum gnemon (melinjo), dan Arthocarpus heterophyllus (nangka). Kerapatan stomata daun tidak berhubungan terhadap luas daun pada pohon teduhan. Kata kunci: pohon teduhan rain garden, stomata. This study aims to determine the type of tree suitable for rain garden, number of stomata, the proportion of canopy closure and water content in the leaves of several types of shade trees, and the relationship between the number of leaf stomata to leaf area, if there is a proportion factor thought to affect the water content will be controlled. Data obtained in the analysis of the proportion of water content in the leaves, the proportion of canopy closure, the location of the tree, and the number of stomata by using descriptive analysis. To determine the relationship between leaf area, the proportion of canopy closure and water content in the leaves of the shade trees used partial correlation analysis with SPSS version 17. Based on the results of a study of the density of stomata in the size of 1 cm², found 10 species of trees shade the best such as Psidium guajava (guava), Mangifera casturi (kasturi), Hevea brasiliensis (rubber), Pithecellobium lobatum (jengkol), Mangifera indica (mango), Theobroma cacao (brown), Persea americana (avocado), Eugenia aquea (rose apple), Gnetum gnemon (melinjo), and Arthocarpus heterophyllus (jackfruit). The density of leaf stomata are not related to the broad leaves of the shade tree. Keywords: rain garden, shade tree, stomata.

Se realizaron ensayos de propagación de 13 especies forestales, consideradas en estudios previos como aptas para la recuperación y manejo de la microcuenca La Lejía en el Municipio de Arbeláez, Cundinamarca, Colombia. Las especies estudiadas fueron la guadua (Guadua angustifolia Kunth), el madre de agua [Trichanthera gigantea (Humb. & Bonpl)], el ocobo (Tabebuia rosea DC.), el nogal cafetero [Cordia alliodora (Ruiz &Pav.) Cham.], el drago (Croton spp.), balú (Erythrina edulis Triana), el aguacate (Persea americana Mill.), el cedro de altura (Cedrela montanaTurcz.), el cedro rosado (Cedrela odorata Griseb.), el caucho (Ficus spp.), el brevo (Ficus carica L.), la guayaba (Psidium guajava L.) y el tomate de árbol (Solanum betaceum Cav.). Para tal fin se instalaron tres viveros comunitarios en los que se evaluó la respuesta de la especie en uno de tres tipos de propagación (vegetativa: estacas; sexual: semillas y plántulas rescatadas del bosque) ante cinco diferentes tipos de sustrato:1) tierra de la finca, 2) tierra y abono orgánico, 3) tierra y cascarilla, 4) tierra y caldo microbiano y 5) tierra y cascarilla, abono, caldo microbiano. La respuesta se midió en términos del porcentaje de supervivencia/germinación, el cambio en el número de hojas y el cambio en la altura durante tres meses. Los resultados muestran que los tratamientos tierra con abono orgánico y tierra con cascarilla fueron significativamente mejores en términos de crecimiento y supervivencia para cualquiera de los tipos de reproducción evaluados. Las especies que mejor desempeño presentaron fueron el cedro de altura (Cedrela montana) y el balu (Erythrina edulis). Se resaltala importancia de los viveros para el éxito, monitoreo y seguimiento de estrategias de propagación de especies con algún valor para las comunidades locales.

Phragmanthera capitata was reported to possess many biological properties making it a good candidate for the formulation of a phytomedicine with multiple effects. In this work, we studied some factors likely to modify these therapeutic properties with the aim to contribute to its standardization as an improved traditional medicine. P. capitata parasitizing Persea americana, Psidium guajava, and Podocarpus mannii were harvested at three phenological stages (vegetative, flowering, and fruiting stages). The extracts were prepared by maceration in n-hexane, ethyl acetate, ethanol, methanol, and distilled water. The total phenolic, flavonoid, flavonol, and tannin contents were measured using appropriate methods. The antioxidant potential of extracts was investigated using TAC, DPPH scavenging, and FRAP methods. The α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities of extracts were determined using enzymatic methods. The ethyl acetate extracts with the best phenolic content were subjected to HPLC analysis. The extraction yields were higher with methanol. The ethyl acetate extract of P. capitata harvested from P. guajava showed a stable HPLC profile during the development of the plant, while extracts from the plant collected from P. americana and P. mannii showed both qualitative and quantitative variations according to phonological stages of the plant. The inhibition of α-amylase was more pronounced for P. capitata harvested from P. guajava, decreasing during flowering and fruiting, while inhibition of α-glucosidase was not influenced by the phenological stage and the host of the plant. The α-amylase inhibitors were better extracted by ethyl acetate and those of α-glucosidase by ethanol or methanol. The phenolic contents and antioxidant properties of the extracts were influenced by the phenological stage of P. capitata and its hosts. These results suggest that it is preferable to harvest P. capitata during flowering or during fruiting stages on any host. None of the used solvents permitted an optimal extraction of active principles form P. capitata, suggesting that the mixture of solvents must be considered in further studies.

Com o objetivo de conhecer melhor o efeito das baixas temperaturas sobre as frutíferas de clima tropical e possibilitar o desenvolvimento de novas variedades, mais tolerantes, simularam-se geadas em câmaras frigoríficas para a determinação da temperatura letal de diferentes plantas frutíferas tropicais. Os resultados permitiram classificar as espécies em três grupos: Grupo I - moderada tolerância (-4°C): condessa (Annona reticulata); goiaba (Psidium guajava); acerola (Malpighia glabra) e abacate (Persea americana) var. Geada; Grupo II - média tolerância (-5°C): conde (A. squamosa); araticum-mirim (Rollinea spp.); anona-do-brejo (A. glabra); falsa-gravioleira (A. montana); araticum-de-folha-miúda (R. ermaginata) e maracujá-amarelo (Passiflora edulis f. flavicarpa); Grupo III - acentuada tolerância (-6°C): cherimóia (A. cherimola).
