Gastric and Duodenal Antiulcer Effects ofRhizophora mangle

open access: yesPharmaceutical Biology, 2004
A freeze-dried aqueous extract from red mangrove bark was studied in rats for ability to inhibit gastric secretion and to protect gastroduodenal mucus against injury caused by pyloric ligation, hypothermic-restraint stress, indomethacin and cysteamine administration, and chronic ulcers produced by topical application of acetic acid on gastric wall.

Leaf Gas Exchange and Nutrient Use Efficiency Help Explain the Distribution of Two Neotropical Mangroves under Contrasting Flooding and Salinity

open access: yesInternational Journal of Forestry Research, 2013
Rhizophora mangle and Laguncularia racemosa cooccur along many intertidal floodplains in the Neotropics. Their patterns of dominance shift along various gradients, coincident with salinity, soil fertility, and tidal flooding.

Evaluation of wound healing activity of Rhizophora mangle in cream

open access: yesActa Scientiarum. Biological Sciences
Although tissue repair is an evolution of the body itself to resolve the wound, many need special care for proper healing. Medicinal plants, such as Rhizophora mangle, have a traditional use for wound healing. This study aimed to evaluate the healing potential of aqueous extract of leaves of R. mangle (AELRm) in cream for surgical wounds in rats. Forty-

Carbon sequestration efficiency of urban mangroves: The role of native vs. introduced species

open access: yesEnergy Geoscience
This study evaluates species-specific differences in aboveground carbon sequestration among native and introduced tree species in an urban mangrove ecosystem of Guayaquil, Ecuador. Field measurements and allometric models were applied to quantify biomass

Examining the Density Gradient Along the Rhizophora mangle Propagule

open access: yesProceedings of the West Virginia Academy of Science
Mangroves grow in tropical regions around the globe, but these dense forests have been declining due to agriculture, industry, and climate change. Mangrove propagules are not seeds but the seedlings themselves that grow on the parent tree until they reach maturity and fall.
