| evaluation of melaleuca cajuputi (family: myrtaceae) essential oil in aerosol spray cans against dengue vectors in low cost housing flats. | melaleuca cajuputi essential oil in aerosol spray was evaluated against the dengue vectors aedes aegypti and ae. albopictus at low cost housing flats in section 10, setapak, kuala lumpur, malaysia. | 2012 | 23293776 |
| antifilarial and antibiotic activities of methanolic extracts of melaleuca cajuputi flowers. | we evaluated the activity of methanolic extracts of melaleuca cajuputi flowers against the filarial worm brugia pahangi and its bacterial endosymbiont wolbachia. anti-wolbachia activity was measured in worms and in aedes albopictus aa23 cells by pcr, electron microscopy, and other biological assays. in particular, microfilarial release, worm motility, and viability were determined. m. cajuputi flower extracts were found to significantly reduce wolbachia endosymbionts in aa23 cells, wolbachia sur ... | 2016 | 27417081 |
| antioxidant, antibacterial activity, and phytochemical characterization of melaleuca cajuputi extract. | the threat posed by drug-resistant pathogens has resulted in the increasing momentum in research and development for effective alternative medications. the antioxidant and antibacterial properties of phytochemical extracts makes them attractive alternative complementary medicines. therefore, this study evaluated the phytochemical constituents of melaleuca cajuputi flower and leaf (gf and gl, respectively) extracts and their antioxidant and antibacterial activities. | 2015 | 26497742 |
| in-vitro screening of malaysian honey from different floral sources for antibacterial activity on human pathogenic bacteria. | different researches on therapeutic effects of honey have been conducted in different regions; however the study on the potential antibacterial activity of malaysian honey is still limited. in this study, antibacterial activities of different monofloral honey samples were tested against several common human pathogenic bacteria. | 2014 | 25435614 |
| efficacy of commercially available products against gyrodactylus turnbulli infections on guppies poecilia reticulata. | the demand for ornamental fish has led to a steep rise in aquaculture for the hobbyist trade, promoting the emergence, persistence and spread of various infectious diseases. complete control of disease outbreaks with antibiotics and chemical-based medicines is rare, but plant compounds may herald potential alternatives effective against a range of pathogens. melafix® and pimafix® are formulated with the essential oils cajuput (melaleuca cajuputi) and west indian bay (pimenta racemosa) and are ma ... | 2015 | 26203884 |
| role of exudation of organic acids and phosphate in aluminum tolerance of four tropical woody species. | responses of melaleuca leucadendra (l.) l., melaleuca cajuputi powell, acacia auriculiformis a. cunn. ex benth. and eucalyptus camaldulensis dehnh. to aluminum (al) toxicity at low ph are poorly understood. we investigated effects of low ph and exudation of ligands by roots on al tolerance of these species. seedlings were grown hydroponically in nutrient solutions at ph 4.2 or 3.5 containing alcl3 at concentrations ranging from 0 to 4 mm al. the presence of 4 mm al at ph 3.5 depressed growth in ... | 2003 | 12975128 |
| steady sucrose degradation is a prerequisite for tolerance to root hypoxia. | we investigated the role of glycolysis and sucrolysis in the difference in tolerance to root hypoxia between two myrtaceae tree species, melaleuca cajuputi (which shows superior tolerance to root hypoxia) and eucalyptus camaldulensis (which does not). analysis of the adenylate energy charge (aec) in roots subjected to a 4-day hypoxic treatment (ht) in hydroponic culture revealed that the interspecies difference in tolerance corresponds to the ability to maintain energy status under root hypoxia: ... | 2014 | 24646690 |
| photosynthesis and photoassimilate transport during root hypoxia in melaleuca cajuputi, a flood-tolerant species, and in eucalyptus camaldulensis, a moderately flood-tolerant species. | we compared the photosynthetic and photoassimilate transport responses of melaleuca cajuputi powell seedlings to root hypoxia with those of eucalyptus camaldulensis dehnh. control and hypoxia treated roots were maintained in a nutrient solution through which air or nitrogen was bubbled. under root hypoxic conditions, seedlings of m. cajuputi, a flood-tolerant species, maintained height growth, whereas seedlings of e. camaldulensis, a moderately flood-tolerant species, showed markedly decreased h ... | 2006 | 16877326 |
