Photosynthetic efficiency of young Rhizophora mangle L. in a mangrove in southeastern Brazil. [PDF]

Photosynthetica, 2022
The study proposes to evaluate the photosynthetic plasticity of Rhizophora mangle L. in four mangrove sites distributed along with the Great Vitória Estuarine System. The variation in organic matter content, which implies the higher essential nutrient availability, contributed to better energy flux performance related to electron transport. Furthermore,

Modulatory Effect of Polyphenolic Compounds from the Mangrove Tree Rhizophora mangle L. on Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease and Insulin Resistance in High-Fat Diet Obese Mice [PDF]

Molecules, 2018
No scientific report proves the action of the phytochemicals from the mangrove tree Rhizophora mangle in the treatment of diabetes. The aim of this work is to evaluate the effects of the acetonic extract of R. mangle barks (AERM) on type 2 diabetes.

Screening of endoglucanase-producing bacteria in the saline rhizosphere of Rhizophora mangle. [PDF]

Braz J Microbiol, 2014
In screening the culturable endoglucanase-producing bacteria in the rhizosphere of Rhizophora mangle, we found a prevalence of genera Bacillus and Paenibacillus. These bacteria revealed different activities in endoglucolysis and biofilm formation when exposed to specific NaCl concentrations, indicating modulated growth under natural variations in ...

Effects of Rhizophora mangle on Experimental Colitis Induced by TNBS in Rats. [PDF]

Evid Based Complement Alternat Med, 2012
Male Unib-WH rats were pretreated for two weeks with butanolic (BuOH) and ethyl acetate (EtOAc) fractions. Colitis was induced by rectal administration of TNBS, the treatment continued, and animals were sacrificed on day 7 after the TNBS administration. Phytochemical studies were performed in order to provide the characterization of the tannins present
