Description
In volume two, the use of phytochemicals for the development of high-potency drugs and insecticides from plant sources has been explained. In this volume, medicinal, insecticidal and therapeutic uses of Onion) (Allium cepa); Garlic (Allium sativum); Kareel, (Cleome visocoa); Bel (Cassia fistula); Tejpatta, Cinnamomum tamala; Palasha, (Butea monosperma); Ghrit Kumari, Aloe vera; Amaltash (Cassia fistula), Giloy (Amrita: Tinospora cardifolia); Toddalia aculeata, Garlic, Tulsi (Ocimum sanctum); Madar (Calotropis procera); Kareel (Capparis decidua), papaya (Carica papaya) and Forest Pepper (Toddalia aculeata) have been described in detail. One more chapter on the acaricidal activity of natural plant products has been added. In the present book, analgesic, anticonvulsant, hepatoprotective, sedative, anti-arthritis, antidiabetic, antilipidemic, antiviral, anthelmintic, and anticoccidial activities, as well as proteolytic and pro-coagulant, anti-inflammatory, wound healing, antiparasitic, and anti-protozoal and anti-malarial activities of bio-organic constituents of the above plants have been discussed. The book also highlights antimicrobial, anticancer, and anti-AIDS activity of various natural plant products. The above plant species possess many novel compounds that exhibit multiple biological activities and can be utilised to generate broad-spectrum drugs and insecticides for the control of drug-resistant pathogens, parasites, and insects..
