Novel application of neural network modelling for multicomponent herbal medicine optimization.

Scientific reports
The conventional method for effective or toxic chemical substance identification of multicomponent herbal medicine is based on single component separation, which is time-consuming, labor intensive, inefficient, and neglects the interaction and integr...

Antifungal activity of the essential oils of some medicinal plants against human and plant fungal pathogens.

Cellular and molecular biology (Noisy-le-Grand, France)
The present study was conducted to assess the antifungal activity of essential oils of medicinal plants Mentha piperita (peppermint), Foeniculum vulgare, Satureja hortensis (Savory), Ferula asafoetida and Cuminum cyminum against Alternaria sp., Bipol...

Employing fingerprinting of medicinal plants by means of LC-MS and machine learning for species identification task.

Scientific reports
A dataset of liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry measurements of medicinal plant extracts from 74 species was generated and used for training and validating plant species identification algorithms. Various strategies for data handling and feature...

Harnessing Biomedical Natural Language Processing Tools to Identify Medicinal Plant Knowledge from Historical Texts.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
The growing amount of data describing historical medicinal uses of plants from digitization efforts provides the opportunity to develop systematic approaches for identifying potential plant-based therapies. However, the task of cataloguing plant use ...

Cytotoxic activity of the bioactive principles from Ficus burtt-davyi.

Journal of environmental science and health. Part. B, Pesticides, food contaminants, and agricultural wastes
Ficus burtt-davyi (Moraceae) is a medicinal plant species indigenous to Southern Africa. In this study, a phytochemical and cytotoxic investigation on F. burtt-davyi was conducted to evaluate its ethno-medicinal use. The phytochemical study of the fr...

Journal of ethnopharmacology
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Plants preparations are used by traditional medicine in the treatment of various diseases, such as type-2 diabetes mellitus. Some medicinal plants are capable of controlling the complications of this metabolic disease ...

Selected essential oils inhibit key physiological enzymes and possess intracellular and extracellular antimelanogenic properties in vitro.

Journal of food and drug analysis
Essential oils (EOs) extracted from six medicinal herbs and food plants [Cinnamomum zeylanicum (CZ), Psiadia arguta (PA), Psiadia terebinthina (PT), Citrus grandis (CGp), Citrus hystrix (CH), and Citrus reticulata (CR)] were studied for any inhibitor...

DisArticle: a web server for SVM-based discrimination of articles on traditional medicine.

BMC complementary and alternative medicine
BACKGROUND: Much research has been done in Northeast Asia to show the efficacy of traditional medicine. While MEDLINE contains many biomedical articles including those on traditional medicine, it does not categorize those articles by specific researc...

A method to predict different mechanisms for blood-brain barrier permeability of CNS activity compounds in Chinese herbs using support vector machine.

Journal of bioinformatics and computational biology
The blood-brain barrier (BBB), a highly selective barrier between central nervous system (CNS) and the blood stream, restricts and regulates the penetration of compounds from the blood into the brain. Drugs that affect the CNS interact with the BBB p...
