root extracts were used for analysis by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS). The anticancer and antibacterial functions of extracts were also investigated. The dichloromethane extract of had the highest inhibitory effect against (18.00 ± 1.4 mm) at 100 mg/mL concentration. The lowest MIC was also achieved for treated with dichloromethane extract of (1.5 mg/mL). The minimum MBC (2 mg/mL) was observed for dichloromethane extract of root against . IC values of dichloromethane extracts of root (184.84 μg/mL) against HCT116 were lower than the ethyl acetate and butanol extracts (212.41 μg/mL and 223.93 μg/mL) at 72h. The butanol extract exhibited the most IC value on HEK293 (748.19 μg/mL). The biological properties of extracts may be assigned to the presence of numerous compounds detected in GC/MS analysis including n-Hexadecanoic acid, Linolenic acid, Palmitic acid, methyl ester, Stearic acid.

Various species have been traditionally used to treat diabetes; however, the antidiabetic potential and safety of many of these species remain poorly understood. This study evaluated the chemical composition, antihyperglycemic activity, insulin-sensitizing effect, and acute oral toxicity of . Dichloromethane, ethyl acetate, -butanol, and aqueous residue fractions were obtained via liquid-liquid extraction from the hydroalcoholic extract obtained via maceration of the aerial parts.

Increased resistance of malaria parasite to first line antimalarial drugs has led to the search for alternatives in the management of malaria. This study evaluated the anti-plasmodial and immunomodulatory effect of dichloromethane plant extract of in infected mice. Chloroquine-resistant infected mice were separated into five treatment groups (200 mg/Kg, 400 mg/Kg, and 600 mg/Kg) with a negative control (given distilled water only) and a positive control (treated with Piperaquine-Dihydro-artemisinin), a standard drug.

The depletion of mineral resources and the escalating environmental pollution caused by industrial waste have underscored the urgent need for efficient metal recovery from these waste streams. This research focuses on the selective extraction of Cu(II), Ni(II), Zn(II), and Cd(II) from industrial lead plant waste, employing a synergistic combination of Dichloromethane (DCM) and Aliquat 336 (A336) and individual solvent extraction using these solvents. The accuracy of the synthesized task-specific ionic liquids (TSILs) (EtNCNHC and BuNCNHC) was investigated using FTIR and H-NMR analysis.
