Item type:Publication, Effects of natural herbicide from tagetes erecta on echinochloa crus-galli (L.) beauv(2018-01-01) ;Wichittrakarn, P.; ; We studied the inhibitory effects of leaves extracts of Tagetes erecta on weed-seed germination and the mechanisms involved. Hydroethanolic crude extract (OR) from Tagetes erecta dried leaves was partitioned into four fractions: hydrolyzed (HY), aqueous (AQ), neutral (NE) and acidic (AE). The inhibitory effects of crude extracts and its fractions were evaluated on germination and seedlings growth of Echinochloa crus-galli (L.) Beauv. The total phenolic and flavonoid contents of each fraction were also determined. Germination and seedling growth were drastically inhibited by HY and AE followed by NE, OR and AQ. The HY and AE fractions had higher concentrations of both phenolics and flavonoids than other fractions. The HY fraction was selected as most potent for development as natural herbicide due to its high yield and strong inhibitory effects. The HY fraction was formulated into a soluble concentrate product (SCT) and its inhibition potential and modes of action were investigated. The SCT drastically inhibited the seed germination of E. crus-galli, inhibiting both imbibition, α-amylase activity and also seedling growth. Cytogenetic bioassays of SCT on root-tip cells of Allium cepa L. showed that it inhibited the mitosis and thereby the cell division. It is likely that a natural herbicide may be developed from the hydrolyzed fraction of a hydroethanolic extract of Mexican marigold leaves. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, A simple and rapid transformation of golden apple snail (pomacea canaliculata) shells to calcium carbonate, monocalcium and tricalcium phosphates(2019-01-01); ; ;Chaiseeda, K.This study was designed to manage golden apple snail shells, the wastes created in large amount daily from the consumption of the meat of golden apple snail (Pomacea canaliculata) shells by transforming them to advanced compounds; calcium carbonate (CaCO3), monocalcium phosphate monohydrate [Ca(H2PO4)2·H2O], and tricalcium phosphate [Ca3(PO4)2]. They were successfully prepared by a rapid, simple, environmentally benign method using easily available and low-cost instrument. All synthesized samples were characterized by X-ray fluorescence, X-ray powder diffraction, FTIR spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy to confirm the identities with the standard materials. The reproducibility and low-cost method suggest that it could be used in industry for a large-scale production of calcium carbonate, monocalcium phosphate monohydrate and tricalcium phosphate from golden apple snail shells as a replacement of natural mineral resources and be a good way to manage these shell wastes. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Antioxidant activities and heat stability of edible flowers of Telosma minor and Sesbania javanica(2018-01-02); ;Changsawake, Kanokporn; Aqueous and ethanolic extracts from the edible flowers of Telosma minor (cowslip creeper), and Sesbania javanica (sesbania) were assessed for their their total phenolics, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical-scavenging activity, and anti-lipid peroxidation ability. Aqueous extracts of cowslip creeper had the highest activities as a DPPH radical scavenger and as an inhibitor of lipid peroxidation. The value of the half-maximal effective concentration (EC<inf>50</inf>) for DPPH radical-scavenging of the aqueous cowslip creeper extract was 252.5 mg L<sup>−1</sup>, compared to the EC<inf>50</inf> values for the standards, ascorbic acid, and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), which were 2.26 and 21.80 mg L<sup>−1</sup>, respectively. For anti-lipid peroxidation, the IC<inf>50</inf> (the half-maximal inhibition concentration) value of the aqueous cowslip creeper extract was 1539.93 mg L<sup>−1</sup> while the IC<inf>50</inf> value of BHT was 683.5 mg L<sup>−1</sup>. The aqueous extract of cowslip creeper had the highest total phenolic concentration (991.3 mg gallic acid equivalents 100 g<sup>−1</sup> DW). The total phenolic content in cowslip creeper and sesbania flowers had high positive correlation with their antioxidant activities and anti-lipid peroxidation. The aqueous extract of sesbania flowers was the most heat stable antioxidant (100°C for 15 or 30 min), decreasing in total phenolic content but no changes in DPPH scavenging or in anti-lipid peroxidation activity. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Optimal extraction solvents use for extraction of Thunbergia laurifolia Linn. Leaves and its mode of action on weed control(2018-12-01) ;Thinh, N. H.; Wichittrakarn, P.Thunbergia laurifolia Lindl. leaves were extracted by various ratios (0, 25, 50, 75 and 100%) of ethanol in water as solvents for crude extraction. The highest crude extract yield was obtained by using 25% ethanol solvent with three time extractions. The inhibitory effect of each extract on seed germination and seedling growth of Amaranthus gracilis was investigated. The results indicated that the 100% ethanol extract expressed the best inhibitory effect. At concentration of 1250 ppm, the 100% ethanol extract completely inhibited seed germination of A. gracilis. The 100% ethanol extract also inhibited α-amylase activities in A. gracilis seed during seed germination. However, the extract does not show effect on seed imbibition. The inhibition of induction of α-amylase increased with increasing concentration of the 100% ethanol extract. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Peppermint essential oil extends the vase life of the cut Dendrobium orchid ‘White Sanan’(2023-01-01); ; The vase life of cut orchid flowers is significantly extended by preservative solutions containing silver compounds. However, these compounds are toxic and require careful handling and disposal. As a result, the demand is increasing for natural preservation materials such as plant essential oils as they are biodegradable, ecofriendly, and safe alternatives for enhancing vase life and postharvest cut flower quality. The objective of this investigation was to study the effects of an emulsion of glucose and peppermint essential oil on vase life and postharvest quality of the popular cut Dendrobium orchid ‘White Sanan’. The orchids were preserved in vase solutions of distilled water or 4% glucose + 0.005-0.02% peppermint essential oil. The essential oil treatment increased the vase life of the flowers and the inflorescences by more than 6 days longer than the control treatment. The combination of glucose and peppermint essential oil increased water uptake and the fresh weight of cut orchids and delayed wilting time and abscission of floral buds and open florets. Moreover, treatment with the vase solution containing 4% glucose + 0.005% peppermint essential oil resulted in the highest bud opening rate (86.9%). Our results suggest that applying 4% glucose and 0.005-0.02% peppermint essential oil is especially effective as a preservative solution for the Dendrobium orchid ‘White Sanan’. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Herbicidal activities of some allelochemicals and their synergistic behaviors toward amaranthus tricolor L.(2017-11-01); ; Seven allelochemicals, namely R-(+)-limonene (A), vanillin (B), xanthoxyline (C), vanillic acid (D), linoleic acid (E), methyl linoleate (F), and (±)-odorine (G), were investigated for their herbicidal activities on Chinese amaranth (Amaranthus tricolor L.). At 400 μM, xanthoxyline (C) showed the greatest inhibitory activity on seed germination and seedling growth of the tested plant. Both vanillic acid (D) and (±)-odorine (G) inhibited shoot growth, however, apart from xanthoxyline (C), only vanillic acid (D) could inhibit root growth. Interestingly, R-(+)-limonene (A) lightly promoted root length. Other substances had no allelopathic effect on seed germination and seedling growth of the tested plant. To better understand and optimize the inhibitory effects of these natural herbicides, 21 samples of binary mixtures of these seven compounds were tested at 400 μM using 0.25% (v/v) Tween(r) 80 as a control treatment. The results showed that binary mixtures of R-(+)-limonene:xanthoxyline (A:C), vanillin:xanthoxyline (B:C), and xanthoxyline:linoleic acid (C:E) exhibited strong allelopathic activities on germination and seedling growth of the tested plant, and the level of inhibition was close to the effect of xanthoxyline (C) at 400 μM and was better than the effect of xanthoxyline (C) at 200 μM. The inhibition was hypothesized to be from a synergistic interaction of each pair of alleochemicals. Mole ratios of each pair of allelochemicals ((A:C), (B:C), and (C:E)) were then evaluated, and the best ratios of the binary mixtures A:C, B:C and C:E were found to be 2:8, 2:8, and 4:6 respectively. These binary mixtures significantly inhibited germination and shoot and root growth of Chinese amaranth at low concentrations. The results reported here highlight a synergistic behavior of some allelochemicals which could be applied in the development of potential herbicides. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Influence of ginger essential oil nanoemulsion delivery system on antioxidant activity and postharvest Davallia frond vase life(2025-01-01) ;Kowwilaisang, Piangpassorn; Plant essential oils have limited water solubility, for which problem oil-in-water emulsions provide a good solution. The aim of this work was to prepare a ginger essential oil (Zingiber officinale Rosc.; GEO) coarse emulsion, microemulsion, and nanoemulsion all with the same formula, determine their characteristics, and compare their antioxidant activities and utility as holding solutions for Davallia fronds. A coarse emulsion was firstly formed by a magnetic stirrer of GEO with a 1:2 by weight mixture of Tween 20 and Span 20 at weight ratio of 1:8, respectively. The coarse emulsion droplets (810.0 nm) were then broken by sonication and high-pressure homogenization to create the microemulsion (426.1 nm) and nanoemulsion (76.4 nm), respectively. The three emulsions exhibited ζ-potential values more negative than -30 mV, indicating them to be stable. All three emulsions demonstrated DPPH• and ABTS•+ free radical scavenging capacities significantly higher than those of GEO in ethanol. Meanwhile, the nanoemulsion significantly improved the Fe<sup>2+</sup> chelating effect Finally, in a bioefficacy experiment with Davallia fronds, both the microemulsion at concentrations of 5 and 10 mg/mL and the coarse emulsion at 10 mg/mL were found to extend frond vase life. The nanoemulsion demonstrated superior frond longevity at low concentration (5 mg/mL), but at higher concentration (10 mg/mL), vase life and leaf chlorophyll were not improved and malondialdehyde formation increased. Based on the current investigation, emulsification significantly enhances the antioxidant activities of GEO. Vase solutions containing high concentrations of coarse emulsion (10 μg/mL), microemulsion (5 and 10μg/mL), and low concentration of nanoemulsion (5μg/mL) increased Davallia frond longevity from 6.3 days to up to 11.9 days. Our findings suggest that there is an optimal concentration range for using essential oil emulsions in different delivery systems as a preservation solution in cut fronds. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Antioxidant and Antibacterial Activities of Jasminum officinale L. f. var. grandiflorum (L.) Kob. Leaf Extracts(2024-05-01); ; The investigation of phytochemicals and their effects on plants is currently receiving significant attention due to the well-known fact that plants contain secondary metabolites that have high levels of usefulness in various applications. These applications include food additives, biopesticides, and pharmaceuticals. In a recent study, we thoroughly examined the total phenolic content (TPC), and the antioxidant, and antibacterial properties of Jasminum officinale L.f. var. grandiflorum (L.) Kob. (also known as Spanish jasmine) leaf extracts, providing valuable insights into its potential benefits. Our study performed a crude methanol (ME) extraction of Spanish jasmine leaves with acid-base solvent partitioning, resulting in an acidic fraction (AE), a neutral fraction (NE), and an aqueous fraction (AQ). The Folin-Ciocalteu method was used to determine the TPC of the extracts. The AE fraction displayed the highest TPC (79.8±0.61 mgGAE/g dry weight), followed by the NE and AQ fractions. The extracts were further evaluated for their antioxidant activity using the DPPH assay. The AE fraction had the highest antioxidant activity with an EC<inf>50</inf> value of 4.6±0.40 µg/mL. The main active compound, oleuropein, was isolated and determined using spectral data. The isolated compound displayed excellent antioxidant activity with an EC<inf>50</inf> value of 13.0±0.06 µg/mL. Moreover, the antibacterial activity of the Spanish jasmine leaf extracts was calculated using the disc diffusion method based on the minimum inhibitory concentration. The AE fraction exhibited activity against the Gram-negative bacteria, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, with a MIC value of 0.78 µg/mL. The AE fraction also displayed the highest degree of activity against Staphylococcus strains, including drug-resistant strains (MRSA and VRSA), with a MIC range of 0.39-12.5 µg/mL. It is important to highlight that the AE fraction demonstrated the highest level of activity against all VRSA strains tested despite their resistance to vancomycin and oxacillin. These findings strongly indicate that Spanish jasmine leaves possess potent natural antioxidant and antibacterial properties, positioning them as a highly promising plant source. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Larvicidal efficacy and morphological abnormalities induced by plant essential oils against housefly (Musca domestica L.)(2026-03-01); ;Sittichok, S. ;Moungthipmalai, T.; Thongsaiklaing, M.The results showed that the lowest complete pupation rate was 43.67%, indicating a significant inhibition of normal metamorphosis. Additionally, 56.33% of third-instar larvae were classified as malformed larvae (ML), dying before pupation and exhibiting severe morphological and physiological abnormalities. These findings suggest that the star anise nanoemulsion interferes with key developmental pathways, preventing larvae from reaching the pupal stage. Due to its high effectiveness and plant-based origin, this nanoformulation offers a promising, environmentally friendly alternative to conventional chemical insecticides. It has potential for further development into a natural larvicidal agent for use in integrated pest management (IPM) strategies targeting housefly populations. Future research should explore the underlying mechanisms of action and assess the efficacy and safety of this nanoemulsion under real-world conditions to support its application in sustainable vector control. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Baby corn fermented vinegar and its vapour control postharvest decay in strawberries(2015-07-03) ;Krusong, W.; ; Infection by Botrytis cinerea is a major cause of postharvest decay in strawberries. The efficacy of baby corn fermented vinegar (BFV) for growth inhibition of B. cinerea was investigated by diffusing 0%-0.225% acetic acid from BFV or glacial acetic acid into potato dextrose agar. BFV containing 0.225% acetic acid completely inhibited the growth of B. cinerea. Strawberry-flavoured baby corn fermented vinegar (SF-BFV) was developed to mask unfavourable smells caused by BFV. The effectiveness of BFV liquid and vapour for controlling postharvest decay in strawberries was evaluated along with associated sensory analyses. Taste panellists readily accepted fruit that had been sprayed with SF-BFV or exposed to BFV vapour, both treatments that significantly reduced fruit decay. Strawberries inoculated with B. cinerea were also tested. Shelf life at 4°C of strawberries sprayed with SF-BFV was extended to 7 days while that of fruit exposed to BFV vapour was extended to 11 days.
