| Extracts from the dried pericarp of Sapindus saponaria L. (Sapindaceae) fruits were investigated for their antifungal activity against clinical isolates of yeasts Candida albicans and C. non-albicans from vaginal secretions of women with Vulvovaginal Candidiasis. Four clinical isolates of C. albicans, a single clinical isolated of each of the species C. parapsilosis, C. glabrata, C. tropicalis, and the strain of C. albicans ATCC 90028 were used. The hydroalcoholic extract was bioactivity-directed against a clinical isolate of C. parapsilosis, and showed strong activity. The n-BuOH extract and one fraction showed strong activity against all isolates tested. Further column-chromatography on silica gel separation of this fraction afforded two pure triterpene... |

| ABSTRACT: The effect of palisade grass (Urochloa brizantha) was evaluated on the growth of five tree species from the Atlantic Forest biome in Seropédica, RJ, Brasil. This study consisted of five experiments in a completely randomized design. The effect of grass on the growth of Cedrela fissilis, Guazuma ulmifolia, Schinus terebinthifolius, Sapindus saponaria, and Hymenaea courbaril was tested in pots at each experiment. Height, collar diameter, and plant mortality were measured monthly. Shoot and root dry matter of tree species and grass were evaluated at 180 days. A strong interference of palisade grass was observed on the growth of the five studied species. The reduction of growth in height and collar diameter reached 32 and 29% in S. saponaria and 26... |

| Introduction: there are natural products from different fruits and plants that are effective as spermicides, but it is important that they should have little or no cytotoxic effect on epithelial cells. Currently available spermicides with nonoxynol-9 cause vaginal irritation and damage to the vaginal mucosa, the uterine epithelium, and the microbial flora of the vagina. Objective: to elucidate the effect on cell viability, cytotoxicity and apoptosis of spermicidal extracts of Ananas comosus (L.) Merr. and Sapindus saponaria L. over HeLa cell line. Methods: both extracts were evaluated on HeLa cell line using the novel ApoTox-Glo™ Triplex Assay to determine whether cell viability, cytotoxicity and apoptosis were affected. Results: it was... |
