Abstract:
Bulbine asphodeloides (L.) Spreng (Xanthorrhoeaceae family), popularly known in South Africa as “ibhucu” or “Balsamkopieva,” is a perennial plant traditionally used to treat skin diseases, including sunburns, rough skin, dressing burns, itches, and aging. The present study reports the cytotoxic, cellular antioxidant, and antiglucuronidase properties of the ethanol leaf extract from B. asphodeloides. The cytotoxic effect of the plant extract on human dermal fibroblast (MRHF) cells was evaluated by the bis-Benzamide H 33342 trihydrochloride/propidium iodide (Hoechst 33342/PI) dual-staining metho

Abstract:
Terrorism that involves the deliberate release or distribution of biological agents is called bioterrorism. These pathogens are bacteria, viruses, fungi, other microorganisms and their related toxins, insects, and they can be natural or human-modified forms, which are roughly the same way as in biological warfare that can sicken or kill people, livestock, or crops.
 These high-priority means include organisms or toxins that pose the greatest risk to the public and national security: Anthrax (Bacillus anthracis) Botulism (Clostridium botulinum toxin) Plague (Yersinia pestis). They have the

Background. The COVID-19 pandemic is a global pandemic caused by the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus. The outbreak was first recorded in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. On January 30, 2020, the WHO declared the outbreak a health emergency of international significance, and on March 11, 2020 – a pandemic. In Ukraine, Covid-19 coronavirus infection (a new type of pneumonia) was first diagnosed on March 3, 2020, in Chernivtsi. On March 13, the first fatal outcome of Covid-19 was recorded. The purpose of the study was to analyze information sources for the last year. Materials and methods. The research use

This virus is a member of the genus Vitivirus, family Flexiviridae. Members of this genus are known to infecte grapevine and are associated with various disease complexes, such as the Rugose wood complex (RWC) and Shiraz disease (SD). However, the role and impact of GVE in South African vineyards are still unknown. It is important to study these viruses to determine how they infect and the possible impact they m

Hyperpigmentation can cause dangerous psychological and emotional impact on self-perception and health quality of lives of people affected. However, of all the diseases encountered globally, epidemiological data has shown that skin diseases account for almost 34% of all the diseases and these dermatological disorders have gotten worse over time.

A further aim was to estimate the heritability of liability to epistaxis in the Southern African Thoroughbred population. For the purpose of the environmental study, the data covering the period 1986-2001 and involving a total of778 532-race runs, were analysed. This included the following ra

Brucellosis is a disease of socio-economic and zoonotic importance worldwide. In animals it is associated with the ingestion of feed that is contaminated with cyetic material from aborting herd-mates, while in humans it is associated with the consumption of unpasteurised milk and dairy products from infected animals. It may also be acquired from contact with infected material of animal origin by farmers, veterinarians, and abattoir and laboratory workers. Brucellosis was first reported in South Africa in the late nineteenth century. It is still present in the country today, with reporte

A metagenomic sequencing study of a grapevine leafroll-diseased vineyard led to the discovery of a new variant of GLRaV-3 in South Africa. This new variant was most related to a New Zealand isolate, NZ-1. In this study, we sequenced two isolates, GH11 and GH30, of the new variant group of GLRaV-3. These isolates

Determining the genetic diversity of the Streptomyces spp., especially the main pathogen, S. scabies, has been a prerequisite for the ultimate control of common scab. Techniques responsible for the classification and determination of genetic diversity have improved with advances in DNA technology. Analysis of South African (S.A.) S. scabies isolates has been foc
