Abstract:

ABSTRACT An attempt was made to assess the antimycotic activity of Acacia catechu Willd. extracts using three different solvents such as ethanol, acetone and hexane. Agar well diffusion technique was followed for screening against chosen fungi like Aspergillus niger, Fusarium oxysporum, Alternaria alternata, Rhizopus stolonifer and Macrophoma phaseolina. The maximum inhibition was recorded in ethanol, acetone and hexane roots extracts. A. niger growth was controlled by acetone extract of bark, where as F. oxysporum, A. alternata, R. stolonifer and M. phaseolina by acetone extracts of A. catechu extract. These extracts can be utilized for the management of this plant. It is recommended to isolate, identify and integrate the bioactive principle in these pathogens management.

Abstract:

Plants include a family of secondary metabolites called flavonoids, which are often included in human diets. Many of these bases have been shown to have positive medicinal potential. The purpose of this investigation was to determine if flavonoids were present in various test extracts from test plant samples. Thirty separate samples of Acacia catechu bark were gathered for this study from various seasonal circumstances in the research location. Six extracts were then prepared from each sample. The presence or absence of flavonoids in these extracts was then examined using various techniques. The test sample extracts in ethanol, methanol, aqueous, acetone, and chloroform were found to contain flavonoids, however the benzene extracts were found to be free of the same. Based on the dark-colored reaction mixture, it was claimed that the flavonoids content of both alcoholic extracts was relatively higher. This exploratory study could provide the foundation for future investigations into the therapeutic uses of native plants.

Abstract:

Boswellic acids are naturally present in gum extrudes of Boswellia serrate tree. Boswellic acids has promising activity on joint pain and muscle strength. The study aims at developing a more potential product “BioJoin™”, combining Boswellia serrata and Acacia catechu, which provides bone health, immunity support, enhanced mobility and promote joint health and pain relief. Boswellic acid, Catechins, Polyphenols enhanced with required minerals were combined to increase the efficacy of the product and designed into powder form and tablet form for consumption. The Acacia catechu extract was tested with HPLC for the catechin content and found to be not less than 40% and boswellic acid in Boswellia serrata extract was found to be not less than 65% by HPLC. Final Biojoin product was tested for total polyphenol content and was found to contain not less than 15% polyphenols which could provide benefit to the bone health and strength Bone health is important at every age and stage of life. The skeleton is our body's storage bank for several minerals that are necessary for our bodies to function. If we do not have enough minerals in our diets to keep our bodies functioning, this causes our bones to grow weaker and leads to inflammatory responses. Loss of bone strength can lead to several bone disorders in which bones become very fragile and more likely to break. Polyphenols, a class of natural antioxidants, is found in Acacia catechu which belongs to the Fabaceae family. Catechins in Acacia catechu have shown anti-inflammatory effects by modulating inflammatory pathways. These compounds may inhibit the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and enzymes such as COX-2 (cyclooxygenase-2), 5-LOX (5-lipoxygenase), and TNF-alpha (tumor necrosis factor-alpha), which play a role in chronic inflammation. As such, Acacia catechu extract can potentially alleviate symptoms in inflammatory conditions like arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and gout

Abstract:

In situ corrosion inhibition in acid cleaning processes by using green inhibitors is at the forefront of corrosion chemistry. Plant extracts, especially alkaloids, are known to be good corrosion inhibitors against mild steel corrosion. In this research, alkaloids extracted from Acacia catechu have been used as green corrosion inhibitors for mild steel corrosion in a 1 M H2SO4 solution. Qualitative chemical tests and FTIR measurements have been performed to confirm the alkaloids in the extract. The inhibition efficiency of the extract has been studied by using weight-loss and potentiodynamic polarization methods. A weight-loss measurement has been adopted for the study of inhibitor’s concentration effect, with a variation employed to measure the inhibition efficiency for time and temperature. The weight-loss measurement revealed a maximum efficiency of 93.96% after 3 h at 28 °C for a 1000 ppm alkaloid solution. The 1000 ppm inhibitor is effective up to a temperature of 48 °C, with 84.39% efficiency. The electrochemical measurement results revealed that the alkaloids act as a mixed type of inhibitor. Inhibition efficiencies of 98.91% and 98.54% in the 1000 ppm inhibitor concentration solution for the as-immersed and immersed conditions, respectively, have been achieved. The adsorption isotherm has indicated the physical adsorption of alkaloids. Further, the spontaneous and endothermic adsorption processes have been indicated by the thermodynamic parameters. The results show that alkaloids extracted from the bark of Acacia catechu can be a promising green inhibitors for mild steel corrosion.

The herbal extract of all three plants gives antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory activity and prevent and reducing the tooth decay, dental caries and given to freshness of mouth. The aim of present work was development and evaluation of herbal antimicrobial toothpaste containing Bark of Acacia nilotica, Acacia catechu and flower buds of syzygium aromaticum as herbal ingredients. Different types of formulations (F1-F6) were formulated using calcium carbonate as abrasive and Glycerine as humectant in varied concentrations. All the formulations were evaluated for various parameters like dryness, color, appearance, consistency, washability, pH, spreadability and foaming power. Polyherbal toothpaste containing hydroalcoholic extract of plants was tested for antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus mutans with different concentrations of toothpaste were used (25, 50and 100 mg/ml). Among the tested bacteria used Staphylococcus aureus was found to be most sensitive to the formulated toothpaste as seen by zone of inhibition (19-24 mm) followed by Streptococcus mutans (13-18 mm). The results showed that the formulated polyherbal toothpaste is promising antimicrobial effects against both organisms. It may be safer compared to fully synthetic toothpaste. Further studies are warranted to prove safety and efficacy of the formulated polyherbal toothpaste. Keywords: Streptococcus mutans, Acacia nilotica, Acacia catechu, syzygium aromaticum, polyherbal toothpaste

Abstract:

Water extract of Acacia seyal bark is used traditionally by the population in Djibouti for its anti-infectious activity. The evaluation of in vitro antibacterial, antioxidant activities and cytotoxicity as well as chemical characterization of Acacia seyal bark water and methanolic extracts were presented. The water extract has a toxicity against the MRC-5 cells at 256 μg/mL while the methanolic extract has a weak toxicity at the same concentration. The methanolic extract has a strong antioxidant activity with half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 150 ± 2.2 μg/mL using 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and IC50 of 27 ± 1.3 μg/mL using 2,2′-azino-bis 3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS) radical methods. For ferric reducing/antioxidant power (FRAP) assay, the result is 45.74 ± 5.96 μg Vitamin C Equivalent (VCE)/g of dry weight (DW). The precipitation of tannins from methanol crude extract decreases the MIC from 64 µg/mL to 32 µg/mL against Staphylococcus aureus and Corynebacterium urealyticum. However, the antioxidant activity is higher before tannins precipitation than after (IC50 = 150 µg/mL for methanolic crude extract and 250 µg/mL after tannins precipitation determined by DPPH method). By matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) analysis, the results showed that the condensed tannins consist of two types of catechin and gallocatechin-based oligomers. The fractionation led to the identification of three pure compounds: two flavanols catechin and epicatechin; one triterpene as lupeol; and a mixture of three steroids and one fatty acid: campesterol, stigmasterol, clionasterol, and oleamide.

Abstract:

Betel quid (BQ) is a favorite chewing item among many communities in different parts of Asia where it is popular by different names. BQ is a unique combination of nut or fruit from the Areca catechu Linn. (AN) tree, leaf from the Piper betle Linn. (BL) vine, slaked lime, paste of bark from the Acacia catechu tree and other spices. AN has been used successfully in various traditional medicines by different civilizations over several ages. Initially condemned by the medical communities for its health hazards, identification and application of potent pharmacologically bioactive compounds from different constituents of BQ have rekindled growing interest in related investigations. Curious about the stimulating role of BQ, we investigated the potential steroidogenic activity of hot water extract from BQ and its constituents and arecoline on testosterone producing ability in an in vitro experiment. Enzyme dissociated interstitial cells from adult mouse testes (ICR strain) were cultured with/without different doses of the extracts and the level of testosterone produced was assayed by an enzyme immunoassay (EIA) technique. It was found that at lower doses of arecoline, AN and BL extracts had significantly stimulated testosterone production over the basal level (p<0.05). BQ extract, on the other hand, did not show any significant effect on testosterone production. Combinations of arecoline at low doses with 10 ng/ml ovine leutinizing hormone (oLH) showed increases in testosterone produced, while cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) co-culture showed dose-related inhibition. Our current finding hints at the possible dose-dependent dualistic role of AN and BL extracts and arecoline for testosterone production employing possible non-cAMP-dependent pathway of steroidogenesis. However, the identity of the active compounds besides arecoline and the exact mechanism involved remains to be further investigated.

Abstract:

Acacia mearnsii (Fabaceae) contains acacia polyphenols, which are a complex mixture of proanthocyanidins that are mainly composed of 5-deoxycatechin units. In this study, an aqueous extract of A. mearnsii bark was fractionated and the α-amylase inhibitory activity of each fraction was evaluated. The 13C NMR and MS data and the pyrolysis products obtained from the active and inactive fractions were compared. The spectroscopic results clearly indicated that fractions with strong inhibitory activity contained proanthocyanidin oligomers with catechol-type B-rings rather than pyrogallol-type B-rings. HPLC analysis of the pyrolysis products showed peaks for pyrocatechol were only observed in the mixtures obtained from the fractions with high inhibitory activities. In addition, (+)-pinitol was isolated as a major polyol of the extract at a level comparable with that of sucrose.

Abstract:

Dietary supplements ACAPOLIA® and ACAPOLIA PLUS have been sold in Japan under the classification “Foods in General” for a number of years. In April 2015, the classification of “Foods with Function Claims” was introduced in Japan to make more products available to the public that were clearly labeled with functional claims based on scientific evidence. In order to obtain recognition of ACAPOLIA PLUS under this new classification, the following information needed to be established. The safety of the bark extract of Acacia mearnsii was shown from the history of the long-term safe consumption of the extract as a health supplement, together with several additional clinical safety tests. Robinetinidol-(4α,8)-catechin was detected by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in the supplement and was suitable for use as the basis of the quantitative analysis. In clinical tests, the amount of change in the plasma glucose concentration in the initial 60 min after rice consumption by a test group who had been given the Acadia extract was significantly lower than the glucose concentration in the group that was given a placebo. The blood glucose incremental areas under the curve (IAUC) in the first 60 min after rice consumption were also significantly lower in the Acacia group. The functional mechanisms were explained in terms of the inhibition of the absorption of glucose in the small intestine and the reduction in the activity of the digestive enzymes caused by proanthocyanidins derived from A. mearnsii bark. As a result, ACAPOLIA PLUS was accepted as a “Food with Function Claims” in August 2016. ACAPOLIA PLUS is now sold under this new classification. The growth of a typical intestinal bacterium is inhibited by an extract containing flavonoid compounds from A. mearnsii bark; thus, one of the future directions of study must be a comprehensive investigation of the effect that flavonoid compounds, proanthocyanidins, have on intestinal bacteria.

Abstract:

Osteoarthritis (OA) is characterized by progressive articular cartilage degradation. Although there have been significant advances in OA management, to date, there are no effective treatment options to modify progression of the disease. We believe these unmet needs could be bridged by nutrients from natural products. Collagen induced arthritis in rats was developed and utilized to evaluate anti-inflammatory and cartilage protection activity of orally administered botanical composition, UP1306 (50 mg/kg) and Methotrexate (75 µg/kg) daily for three weeks. Objective arthritis severity markers, urine, synovial lavage, and serum were collected. At necropsy, the hock joint from each rat was collected for histopathology analysis. Urinary cartilage degradation marker (CTX-II), pro-inflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and IL-6), and proteases (Matrix Metallopeptidase 3 (MMP3) and 13) were measured. Rats treated with UP1306 showed statistically significant improvements in arthritis severity markers, including uCTX-II (91.4% vs. collagen-induced arthritis (CIA)), serum IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6 levels as well as synovial MMP-13. The histopathology data were also well aligned with the severity score of arthritis for both UP1306 and Methotrexate. UP1306, a botanical composition that contains a standardized blend of extracts from the heartwood of Acacia catechu and the root bark of Morus alba, could potentially be considered as a dietary supplement product for the management of arthritis.

Abstract:

Background: Trees are good sources of bioactive compounds as antifungal and antioxidant activities. Methods: Management of six molecularly identified Fusarium oxysporum isolates (F. oxy 1, F. oxy 2, F. oxy 3, F. oxy 4, F. oxy 5 and F. oxy 6, under the accession numbers MW854648, MW854649, MW854650, MW854651, and MW854652, respectively) was assayed using four extracts from Conium maculatum leaves, Acacia saligna bark, Schinus terebinthifolius wood and Ficus eriobotryoides leaves. All the extracts were analyzed using HPLC-VWD for phenolic and flavonoid compounds and the antioxidant activity was evaluated using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging and β-carotene-linoleic acid (BCB) bleaching assays. Results: In mg/kg extract, the highest amounts of polyphenolic compounds p-hydroxy benzoic, benzoic, gallic, and rosmarinic acids, with 444.37, 342.16, 311.32 and 117.87, respectively, were observed in C. maculatum leaf extract; gallic and benzoic acids with 2551.02, 1580.32, respectively, in A. saligna bark extract; quinol, naringenin, rutin, catechol, and benzoic acid with 2530.22, 1224.904, 798.29, 732.28, and 697.73, respectively, in S. terebinthifolius wood extract; and rutin, o-coumaric acid, p-hydroxy benzoic acid, resveratrol, and rosmarinic acid with 9168.03, 2016.93, 1009.20, 1156.99, and 574.907, respectively, in F. eriobotryoides leaf extract. At the extract concentration of 1250 mg/L, the antifungal activity against the growth of F. oxysporum strains showed that A. saligna bark followed by C. maculatum leaf extracts had the highest inhibition percentage of fungal growth (IPFG%) against F. oxy 1 with 80% and 79.5%, F. oxy 2 with 86.44% and 78.9%, F. oxy 3 with 86.4% and 84.2%, F. oxy 4 with 84.2, and 82.1%, F. oxy 5 with 88.4% and 86.9%, and F. oxy 6 with 88.9, and 87.1%, respectively. For the antioxidant activity, ethanolic extract from C. maculatum leaves showed the lowest concentration that inhibited 50% of DPPH free radical (3.4 μg/mL). Additionally, the same extract observed the lowest concentration (4.5 μg/mL) that inhibited BCB bleaching. Conclusions: Extracts from A. saligna bark and C. maculatum leaves are considered potential candidates against the growth of F. oxysporum isolates—a wilt pathogen—and C. maculatum leaf as a potent antioxidant agent.

Abstract:

Abstract Acacia nilotica (L.) Delile belongs to the genus Acacia, which includes about 1400 species in subtropical and tropical Africa including Nigeria, Senegal, Egypt, and Mozambique as well as Asia from India to Burma. This plant is traditionally used to treat several pathologies such as mouth, ear, and bone cancer. Moreover, it possesses many other biological activities (antidiarrheal, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and antifungal). We report here the extraction, purification, and identification of two known compounds [ethylgallate and (+)-catechin] from the bark of the tree that were further tested for their inhibitory activities against a panel of disease-related protein kinases. Both compounds were active, and (+)-catechin showed the best activity by inhibiting nine out of fourteen protein kinases with an IC50 value in the µg/mL range. This compound gave the highest activity against CLK1 with an IC50 of 2.1 µg/mL. The ethyl acetate extract and its components, such as catechins and other polyphenols, which also had protein kinase inhibitory activity, can be exploited in the research for anticancer agents.

Abstract:

Acacia polyphenol (AP) extracted from the bark of the black wattle tree (Acacia meansii) is rich in unique catechin-like flavan-3-ols, such as robinetinidol and fisetinidol. The present study investigated the anti-obesity/anti-diabetic effects of AP using obese diabetic KKAy mice. KKAy mice received either normal diet, high-fat diet or high-fat diet with additional AP for 7 weeks. After the end of administration, body weight, plasma glucose and insulin were measured. Furthermore, mRNA and protein expression of obesity/diabetic suppression-related genes were measured in skeletal muscle, liver and white adipose tissue. As a result, compared to the high-fat diet group, increases in body weight, plasma glucose and insulin were significantly suppressed for AP groups. Furthermore, compared to the high-fat diet group, mRNA expression of energy expenditure-related genes (PPARα, PPARδ, CPT1, ACO and UCP3) was significantly higher for AP groups in skeletal muscle. Protein expressions of CPT1, ACO and UCP3 for AP groups were also significantly higher when compared to the high-fat diet group. Moreover, AP lowered the expression of fat acid synthesis-related genes (SREBP-1c, ACC and FAS) in the liver. AP also increased mRNA expression of adiponectin and decreased expression of TNF-αin white adipose tissue. In conclusion, the anti-obesity actions of AP are considered attributable to increased expression of energy expenditure-related genes in skeletal muscle, and decreased fatty acid synthesis and fat intake in the liver. These results suggest that AP is expected to be a useful plant extract for alleviating metabolic syndrome.

Abstract:

Plants possessing allelopathic potential could be used as a source of bio-herbicide to help decrease the use of synthetic herbicides. Acacia catechu (L.f.) Willd., a deciduous tree from the Mimosaceae family, has been reported to have medicinal properties. However, there have been no reports on the allelopathy of this tree. Therefore, the leaf extracts of A. catechu were examined for allelopathic potential using six concentrations: 0.001, 0.003, 0.01, 0.03, 0.1, and 0.3 g dry weight equivalent extract mL-1. The aqueous methanol extracts of A. catechu significantly suppressed the seedling growth of six test plants such as alfalfa, cress, lettuce, barnyard grass, Italian ryegrass, and timothy. The extracts inhibited the six test plants in a concentration-dependent manner. The shoot and root growth of all the test plant species were completely inhibited from the concentration of 0.3 g of dry weight equivalent extract mL-1, except the shoot growth of barnyard grass. Concentrations needed for 50% growth inhibition (I50 values) ranged from 0.004 to 0.043 g dry weight equivalent extract mL-1 for shoot growth, and 0.003 to 0.019 g dry weight equivalent extract mL-1 for root growth. Moreover, the I50 values indicated that the root growth of all the test plants was more susceptible to the A. catechu extracts than the shoot growth. The inhibitory effects of the extracts of A. catechu suggest that the extracts may contain allelopathic potential and, therefore, may be a potential candidate for the isolation and characterization of allelochemicals to develop an ecofriendly bio-herbicide.

Abstract:

In this study, Acacia catechu bark is used for the development of advanced supercapacitor negatrode materials through the synthesis of activated carbon via activation and carbonization at varying temperatures (400, 600, 800 °C) using ZnCl2 as the activating agent. The as-prepared sample is characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) techniques. The specific surface area was evaluated using BET analysis, while 3D morphological assembly of the resulting material was assessed by means of the Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy. Cyclic voltammetry, galvanostatic charging and discharging, electrochemical impedance, were conducted to evaluate the material's electrochemical performance. The activated carbon prepared at 800°C (BZAC-8) exhibited a specific capacitance of 259.34 F g-1 at a current density of 1 A g-1 with excellent capacity retention (92.61%) and lower impedance. These findings underscore the potential of utilizing Acacia catechu bark-based active carbon as a negatrode material for advanced energy storing application.

Abstract:

Traditional "Ayurvedic" medicine from India has traditionally used Acacia catechu. The herbal extract is the primary component, although there have been no attempts to standardize it as an active agent or marker. A chromatographic fingerprint represents the chemical components of herbal remedies that are therapeutically advantageous. This study suggests utilizing an HPTLC approach to assess phenols like protocatechuic acid and gallic acid in Acacia catechu extract fractions made of water, ethyl acetate, and butanol. According to the study, protocatechuic acid (11.85%) in the water fraction of the Acacia catechu is more concentrated than gallic acid (6.92%). In contrast, the ethyl acetate fraction contains more gallic acid (11%) and less protocatechuic acid (4.10%). However, the butanol fraction only has 6.62% gallic acid. By the Folin-Coicalteu method, total phenolic content was determined, and antioxidant activity of all fractions was resolute using the DPPH method. It was discovered that ethyl acetate fraction had higher phenolic content (211 mg/g) than aqueous fraction (129 mg/g) and butanol fraction (101.2 mg/g). Ethyl acetate fraction has more potent antioxidant activity than water and Butanol fractions. The research emphasizes the potential of this methodology for efficient and economical phenolic profiling, which may aid in the assessment and use of A. catechu in the nutraceutical and pharmaceutical sectors.

Abstract Objective The present study was performed to evaluate the ethanolic extract of leaves of Acacia catechu (A. catechu) for its effect on streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes mellitus (DM) and its renal complications in male Wistar albino rats. Materials and Methods Male Wistar albino rats were grouped into control (A), STZ-induced DM (B), STZ-induced DM rats with A. catechu orally of 75 mg/kg body weight (kbw) for 35 days (C), with each group having six rats (n = 6) weighing between 200 to 250 g each. Group A receives only water, orally; group B receives a single dose of STZ at 45 mg/kbw intraperitoneal administration (IP); group C receives STZ IP and oral A. catechu for 35 days. On the 36th day, animals were euthanized, the kidney tissues were analyzed for biochemical parameters, such as GOT (glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase), GPT (glutamic pyruvic transaminase), oxidative stress assessment parameters, and histopathological studies. Results In group C rats, activities of the enzymes were nearer to group A when compared with group B. Histopathological findings were also suggesting that renal toxicity were observed at a lesser extent in group C. Conclusion The ethanolic extract of A. catechu signified as nephroprotective effect. The present data could provide adequate confirmation of the efficacy of ethanolic extract of leaves of A. catechu for further experimental studies on a standardized formulation.

This work was aimed to study the effect of natural polyphenol extract (Acacia catechu) on physicochemical properties of starch/PVA-based film. Acacia catechu extracts were incorporated in the starch/PVA- (60 : 40%) based films at different concentrations (0.1% to 15%) to the total weight of starch/PVA-based film. The tensile strength (TS) of the starch/PVA blend film was 24 MPa and significantly increased (33.8 MPa) by the addition of acacia (0.5%). Different percentages of urea (1% to 15%) were incorporated in the starch/PVA/acacia-based film. The best tensile strength (11 MPa) and elongation at break (59%) were obtained at 5% urea concentration. This 5% urea-incorporated film was irradiated at different radiation doses; the film showed the best results at 100 krad (tensile strength 15 MPa and elongation at break 69%). Molecular interactions due to incorporation of Acacia catechu were supported by FTIR spectroscopy. Thermal properties (TG/DTA) of all the films were carried out successfully. Water absorption trend of all the films was comparatively high. Urea-incorporated film degraded 94%, and irradiated urea incorporated film degraded 91% within 70 days into the soil.

Abstract:

Corrosion is a decrease in the quality of a metal material caused by a reaction with the environment. Corrosion cannot be eliminated, but corrosion can be slowed down in several ways by adding corrosion inhibitors and synergistic effects. Acacia bark extract (Acacia mangium Willd) with the addition of 0.02 M KI has the potential as a corrosion inhibitor for steel because it contains secondary metabolites, so it can provide a synergistic effect and increase the value of inhibition efficiency on steel. This research aimed to analyze the effect of a mixture of acacia bark extracts (Acacia mangium Willd) with the addition of KI on inhibition efficiency corrosion of mild steel in sulfuric acid media. The method used in this study is the method of weight loss, adsorption isotherms, and thermodynamic parameters, which were carried out by varying the concentration of acacia bark extract and the immersion temperature of the steel. To strengthen the research results, characterization was carried out using FTIR and SEM. The results showed that the corrosion rate of mild steel immersed in 0.75 M H2SO4 corrosive medium with the addition of 0.02 M KI increased with increasing immersion temperature. These results are reinforced by the results of FTIR and SEM analysis which show that there is an interaction between mild steel and acacia bark extract (Acacia mangium Willd) and KI 0.02 M. Based on the thermodynamic parameters, the resulting values of ∆Hads, ∆Gads, and ∆Sads show that the adsorption process of acacia bark extract (Acacia mangium Willd) in corrosive medium H2SO4 0.75 M with the addition of 0.02 M KI took place spontaneously, showing the type of physical adsorption, adsorbed stable, the adsorption process was exothermic and the degree of irregularity in the adsorption process. The inhibition efficiency of acacia bark extract (Acacia mangium Willd) with the addition of 0.02 M KI was highest at 60 °C with an extract concentration of 2.5 g/L of 81%. The higher the immersion temperature, the greater the resulting synergistic effect

Abstract:

Vegetable tanning materials are sourced from plants that contain tannin compounds. Tannins are obtained through the extraction method from the roots, stems, bark, or fruit of the original plant. There are several forest management companies in Indonesia that produce wood from plant species Acacia auriculiformis and Acacia mangium. Both species are known as Acacia. Acacia is an important source of tannin for material tanner vegetables. This wood is produced as a raw material for the pulp and paper industry. However, the bark contains tannin and has not been used optimally. Therefore, the study's potential and possible applications as vegetable tanning agents have been carried out. The research was started by investigating the availability of bark and extracting tannins to obtain extracts containing tannins. Furthermore, the extract obtained was applied as a vegetable tanning agent for the goatskin tanning process. The results showed that the bark of the Plant Industry Forest has the potential to be developed as a source of tannins for material vegetable tanning agents. The application of acacia bark extract in goatskin tanning has obtained tanned leather that meets the Indonesian National Standard.

Abstract:

With the advent of pandemics and infectious diseases, numerous research activities on natural products have been carried out to combat them. Researchers are investigating natural products for the treatment and/or management of various infectious diseases and/or disorders. Acacia catechu (L.f.) Willd. belongs to the family Fabaceae (subfamily Mimosoideae) known as Khair or Cutch tree, possesses diverse pharmacological actions, and has been widely used in Asia and different parts of the world. The purpose of the present study is to highlight the phytochemical profile of different parts of A. catechu, the different biological activities of A. catechu extract, and the utilization of A. catechu as food and beverage. The present work constitutes a review of A. catechu; we performed searches (books, Google, Google Scholar, and Scopus publications) to compile the work/investigations made on A. catechu to the present. From our survey, it was concluded that the main phytochemicals compounds in A. catechu are protocatechuic acid, taxifolin, epicatechin, epigallocatechin, catechin, epicatechin gallate, procyanidin, phloroglucin, aldobiuronic acid, gallic acid, D-galactose, afzelchin gum, L-arabinose, D-rhamnose, and quercetin. The whole plant of A. catechu possesses a comprehensive variety of medicinal potentials such as antimicrobial, antidiarrheal, antinociceptive, antihyperlipidemic, antiulcer, antioxidant, antidiabetic, antiproliferative, haemolytic, and anti-inflammatory properties due to the presence of bioactive compounds like flavonoids, alkaloids, and tannins. However, even though the plant’s metabolites were reported to have many different pharmacological uses, there is limited information about their toxicity or clinical trials. Further research on diverse metabolites of A. catechu should be carried out to ensure the safety or utilization of this plant in the pharma or food industries and in the development of potent plant-based drugs.

Abstract:

Acacia catechu (L.f.) Willd is a profoundly used traditional medicinal plant in Asia. Previous studies conducted in this plant are more confined to extract level. Even though bioassay-based studies indicated the true therapeutic potential of this plant, compound annotation was not performed extensively. This research is aimed at assessing the bioactivity of different solvent extracts of the plant followed by annotation of its phytoconstituents. Liquid chromatography equipped with high resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS) is deployed for the identification of secondary metabolites in various crude extracts. On activity level, its ethanolic extract showed the highest inhibition towards α-amylase and α-glucosidase with an IC50 of 67.8 ± 1 μg/mL and 10.3 ± 0.1 μg/mL respectively, inspected through the substrate-based method. On the other hand, the plant extract showed an antioxidant activity of 23.76 ± 1.57 μg/mL, measured through radical scavenging activity. Similarly, ethyl acetate and aqueous extracts of A. catechu showed significant inhibition against Staphylococcus aureus with a zone of inhibition (ZoI) of 13 and 14 mm, respectively. With the LC-HRMS-based dereplication strategy, we have identified 28 secondary metabolites belonging to flavonoid and phenolic categories. Identification of these metabolites from A. catechu and its biological implication also support the community-based usage of this plant and its medicinal value.

Abstract:

The search for biologically active compounds extracted from traditionally used plants is relevant due to the increasing resistance of bacteria to synthetic antibiotics and the occurrence of fatal opportunistic infections. Acacia nilotica, of the family leguminosae, is one of the oldest existing plant species having various therapeutic, biological and ethno-botanical claims and has diverse medicinal properties. This study was designed to determine the antimicrobial activity of leaf and stem-bark extract of Acacia nilotica against some bacterial isolates associated with wound infections. Leaf and stem-bark of Acacia nilotica plant was collected, identified, dried and extracted with 100% ethanol. The antimicrobial activity of the extracts and the fractions were evaluated against Staphylococcus aureus (SA), Bacillus subtilis (BS), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) and Escherichia coli (EC) using agar well diffusion technique. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and Minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of the leaf and stem-bark extract was determined using microbroth dilution method. Phytochemical screening was carried out on the extracts and the leaf extract was subjected to liquid-liquid fractionation where n-hexane, ethyl acetate and residual aqueous fractions were obtained. The leaf and stem-bark extracts of Acacia nilotica were both active against the test organisms, but the leaf extract was more active. Antimicrobial activity against SA was the highest (at diameter zone of inhibition of 32.00±0.00 mm); and was observed in with the leaf extract. The MICs of the extracts against the organisms were 15.6-31.3 mg/ml (leaf) and 125 mg/ml (stem-bark); and the MBCs were 31.3 mg/ml (leaf) and 250 mg/ml (stem-bark). Tannins, flavonoids, phenols
