Assessment of the Acute Toxicity and Anxiolytic‐Like Effect of α‐Humulene in Adult Zebrafish (Danio rerio)

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 7, July 2026.
The monocyclic sesquiterpene α‐humulene elicited a significant anxiolytic‐like behavior in adult zebrafish and no observable acute toxicity. Pharmacological dissection suggested that this effect is independent of the benzodiazepine (BZD) binding site on the gamma‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) type A receptor (GABAAR), but it depends on the serotonin type 3 ...

Botanicals as Mosquito Larvicides

Defence Science Journal, 2006
Methanol extracts of 19 indigenous plants were evaluated as mosquito larvicide. Among these, pericarp of Zanthoxylum limonella was found to have the most promising larvicidal properties against Aedes(s) albopictus and Culex quinquefasciatus with LC 90 values at 0.47 ppm and 0.73 ppm, respectively.

Cocrystallization and Micronization as Strategies to Optimize the Bioavailability of Naringin and Naringenin Molecules: A Comprehensive Review of In Vivo and In Vitro Pharmaceutical Applications

Crystal Research and Technology, Volume 61, Issue 7, July 2026.
Naringin and naringenin exhibit well‐recognized therapeutic potential; however, they face limitations related to solubility and bioavailability. Micronization increases surface area and enhances absorption. Notably, cocrystallization stands out as a primary strategy for particle optimization, as it refines physicochemical properties, improves ...

Recent Perspectives on Phytochemical Profile, Pharmacological Activities, and Industrial Applications of Guava (Psidium guajava)

Food Safety and Health, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 542-560, July 2026.
Psidium guajava leaves contain potent bioactive compounds like quercetin, myricetin, and triterpenoids that show antioxidant, antidiabetic, anti‐inflammatory, and anticancer effects. They act by modulating NF‐κB, PPARγ, and α‐glucosidase and by inducing apoptosis and cell cycle arrest.

Treatment of cotton with plant growth‐promoting rhizobacteria consortium alters host location and oviposition of Spodoptera exigua

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 7, Page 7123-7136, July 2026.
Two plant‐growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) consortia (AU8 and TX1) induced a deterrence of host plant location and oviposition behavior of Spodoptera exigua females in both susceptible and resistant cotton plants. Most of the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) increased in PGPR‐treated plants compared to untreated plants. # indicates treatments not
