In vitro antimycobacterial activity of six Cameroonian medicinal plants using microplate alamarBlue assay.

International journal of mycobacteriology
OBJECTIVE/BACKGROUND: The latest incidence of tuberculosis (TB) (per 100,000 people) in Cameroon was 243.00 as of 2011. Over the past 21 years, the value for this indicator has fluctuated between 112.00 in 1990 and 320.00 in 2003. Worldwide, this inc...

Prediction of Anti-inflammatory Plants and Discovery of Their Biomarkers by Machine Learning Algorithms and Metabolomic Studies.

Planta medica
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are the most used anti-inflammatory medicines in the world. Side effects still occur, however, and some inflammatory pathologies lack efficient treatment. Cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase pathways are of utmost imp...

Appraisal of adaptive neuro-fuzzy computing technique for estimating anti-obesity properties of a medicinal plant.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
This research examines the precision of an adaptive neuro-fuzzy computing technique in estimating the anti-obesity property of a potent medicinal plant in a clinical dietary intervention. Even though a number of mathematical functions such as SPSS an...

Exploring Anti-osteoporosis Medicinal Herbs using Cheminformatics and Deep Learning Approaches.

Combinatorial chemistry & high throughput screening
BACKGROUND: Osteoporosis is a prevalent disease for the aged population. Chinese herbderived natural compounds have anti-osteoporosis effects. Due to the complexity of chemical ingredients and natural products, it is necessary to develop a high-throu...

In-line monitoring and endpoint determination of percolation process of herbal medicine using ultraviolet spectroscopy combined with convolutional neural network.

The Journal of pharmacy and pharmacology
OBJECTIVES: As a common step in the herbal medicine production process, percolation usually lacks effective process monitoring methods and is often conducted with fixed process parameters. In this study, an in-line ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopy was u...

Neural networks and robotic microneedles enable autonomous extraction of plant metabolites.

Plant physiology
Plant metabolites comprise a wide range of extremely important chemicals. In many cases, like savory spices, they combine distinctive functional properties-deterrence against herbivory-with an unmistakable flavor. Others have remarkable therapeutic q...
