The article is devoted to the important problem of the search of herbal preparations with high antibacterial, cytostatic and lithic activity. The plants such as Ambrosia artemisiifolia, which belongs to the family of Aystrou, are promising in this direction. The aim of the presented work is to study the antibacterial, cytostatic and lithic activity of water extracts of Ambrosia polynolithic and conduct a comparative analysis of these properties with other medicinal plants. Determining that the lectin extract from the green shoots (until flowering) of Ambrosia artemisiifolia does not agglutinate red blood cells, makes it possible to consider this raw material as a potential drug in pharmacology. Investigation of cytostatic activity by the method of Ivanov and Bystrova enabled to establish a place of ambrosia among already well-known medicinal plants. The cytostatic activity of the investigated plants can be represented by the following series in the order of reduction: Chelidónium május, Ambrosia artemisiifolia, Vinca minor, Viscum album. The establishment of antibacterial activity allowed to confirm the presence of anti-staphylococcal activity of the water extract of ambrosia and its significant effect on the colon. Anti-staphylococcus activity of the water extract of Ambrosia artemisiifolia is close to Viscum album and Chelidónium május. The antibacterial effect against Proteus vulgaris was the highest in the extract of аmbrosiа shoots, compared with other medicinal plants studied. Taking into account the phylogenetic method, it could be expected that the plants of the Aystroe family may have a lithic activity with respect to the concrements that are formed in the kidneys of man. So, a study was conducted on the lithic activity of polystyrene embryos and it was found that Ambrosia artemisiifolia has a high lithic activity in relation to urate and oxalate concretions.

Preliminary Study

AbstractAn increasing interest in determination of various macro- and microelements in medicinal plants has been observed. The majority of studies are carried out using one mineralization method without any optimization. The present study demonstrates that changes in mineralization parameters can significantly affect the recovery of the elements determined. In the study, the dried plant material was mineralized in 12 ways and iron (Fe), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), nickel (Ni) and manganese (Mn) levels were determined. The samples were mineralized in the dry or open microwave mode as well as 10 closed microwave modes. The influence of acid amounts, irradiation power and time, addition of hydrogen peroxide and perfluoric acid was examined. All parameters were shown to be critical — good efficiency was observed with larger amounts of acid. The determined content varied significantly in the same sample and were in the ranges (ug g−1): 46–136 (Fe), 1.4–11.8 (Cu), 4.0–11.3 (Ni), 15.4–53.8 (Zn) and 9.5–67.6 (Mn). Increased irradiation resulted in the loss of copper and zinc and better recovery of nickel. The results demonstrate that such determinations should include the mineralization optimization step.

Abstract This article solves one parabolic-type boundary value problem for determining the heat-moisture state of raw cotton in drum dryers at a constant air temperature. Numerical results are obtained by the Bubnov – Galerkin method of the problem under consideration, a comparative analysis is carried out with experimental data. It is shown that the proposed mathematical model and its numerical algorithm adequately describe the drying process of raw cotton.

Microbiological Testing

A biotesting technique is described that provides for periodic (every 2 h) recording of changes in the in-tensity of elastic light scattering, pH and electrical conductivity of a liquid nutrient medium incubated in the presence and absence of viable test microorganisms and test samples. The results of a comparative analysis using this technique of antibiotic activity against Staphylococcus aureus of different concentra-tions of whole subcritical extracts obtained using liquefied CO2 from 10 different types of plant raw mate-rials are presented. Studies have shown that among the samples studied by us, the most active prolonged antimicrobial properties were exhibited by extracts from the roots of Chelidonium majus and flowers of Calendula officinalis at their concentration in the test medium (CTE) more than 3 vol.%. And the most ac-tive prolonged prebiotic properties were exhibited by extracts from shoots of Viscum album and leaves of Juglans regia at CTE = 0.2 vol.%. In this case, the biological activity of the tested samples with respect to test microorganisms in most cases monotonically decreased with an increase in the interaction time of the mentioned microorganisms and samples. However, the exact nature of these dependencies in most cases can be established only with the help of a significant number of tests. And the latter can be conveniently carried out using the methodology presented in this work, which allows a much more rapid, objective and informative, as well as much less laborious and material-intensive, than when using standard visual mi-crobiological methods, to assess the effect on the dynamics of the vital activity of microorganisms of vari-ous tested samples.

Abstract: The study were conducted at Dilla University, College of Natural Sciences, Biological Sciences laboratories. Background: Ethiopia is a country with many ethnic groups, cultures and beliefs which in turn have contributed to the high diversity of traditional health care knowledge and practices of traditional medicine from local growth plants, animals and minerals for various physical and mental disorders of human and livestock population that passed from generation to generation for centuries. Medicinal plants contributors to pharmaceutical, agricultural and food industries in the world. The use of medicinal plants in the industrialized societies has been traced to extraction and development of several drugs used in order to heel some diseases having inhibiting effect against pathogenic microorganism. Objective: The main objective of this study was Extraction and Phytochemicals determination of traditional medicinal plants for anti microbial susceptibility test. Methodology: The extraction and identification of some phytochemicals crude compound which used for antimicrobial susceptibility test from plant sample such as Ocimum lamiifolium (OL), Croton maerosth (Cm) and Ruta chalepesis (RC) were conducted. Plant samples are collected, powdered using mortal and pistil and extracted using ethanol and some susceptibility tests were performed to identify some phytochemicals compound. Result: The main result of Antimicrobial activity test showed that the crude extract of OL has the highest zone of inhibition. The highest yield of crude extract (38.21%) was obtained from Croton maerosth (CM) which followed by Ruta chalepesis (RC) (32.43%). However, the lowest yield (28.37%) was obtained from Oscpmum lamifolium (OL). Conclusion: Traditional Medicine is used by many people to managing numerous conditions; it’s accessible and effective on antimicrobial activity. Therefore, it plays a significant role by reducing life-threatening ailments of people and other animals.
