Abstract:
There is a considerable concern among consumers regarding the health risk of using synthetic additives for food preservation. Therefore, there is need for the use of plant products for food preservation. Objectives: This study was designed to to identify the phytochemicals in aqueous and methanol extracts of Acalypha wilkesiana and examine the effects of extracts of Acalypha wilkesiena on the growth of fungi and bacteria isolated from spoilt fruits and vegetables. Material and methods: The extracts were prepared according to standard methods. The extract solution (100%) was further diluted to

Background: Acalypha wilkesiana (AW), a popular medicinal plant has been used in traditional medicine to treat a variety of skin disorders including pityriasis versicolor and seborrheic dermatitis. As a prelude to clinical trials in humans, an experimental study was carried out to determine the spectrum of antifungal activity of 2 variants of the Acalypha wilkesiana plant. Materials and Methods: The ethanol extract and herbal cream formulation of the dried leaves of 2 cultivars (Macrophylla & Hoffmani) of Acalypha wilkesiana were investigated for in-vitro antifungal activity by disc diffus

Abstract:
The use of some traditional creams in Nigeria is associated with negative outcomes. In order to tackle this problem, we conducted a study on the antibacterial and anti-inflammatory characteristics of Acalypha wilkesiana leaves, which were utilized in the creation of a herbal cream. Standard methods were employed to conduct analytical procedures for the analysis of the phytochemical and chromatographic content of A. wilkesiana leaves. The anti-inflammatory efficacy of the unrefined ethanol extract was assessed using the egg albumin technique, throughout a dosage range of 15.6 to 500 mg/ml. The

Concerns over the environmental impact of synthetic pesticides have shifted attention toward bioactive plant products for the control of stored-product insect pests. This laboratory study evaluated the insecticidal efficacy of Polyalthia longifolia and Acalypha wilkesiana leaf powders against the cowpea weevil (Callosobruchus maculatus). The study aimed to assess mortality effects, damage reduction and emergence inhibition. Four treatment concentrations (0%, 1%, 2%, and 3%) of each plant leaf powder were tested in a completely randomized design, with three replicates per treatment. Each replic
