| anti-inflammatory, spasmolytic and diuretic effects of a commercially available solidago gigantea herb. extract. | the evaluation of a commercially available solidago gigantea herb. extract (urol mono) revealed pronounced anti-inflammatory properties in the rat with respect to a reduction of the carrageenin-induced rat paw oedema. a direct comparison with diclofenac-na (3 mg/kg b.w. p.o.) revealed that a high dose of solidago gigantea herb. extract possesses the same anti-inflammatory efficacy as diclofenac-na. in addition, the solidago gigantea herb. extract exhibited moderate spasmolytic and diuretic prope ... | 1995 | 7710440 |
| experimental and natural weed host-virus relations. | weeds, as alternative hosts of plant viruses and nutrient plants of virus vectors play important role in virus ecology and epidemiology. the aim of our study was to discover new weed-virus relations. therefore some weed species were mechanically inoculated with 28 viruses (strains or isolates) maintained in our glasshouse. different weed species with and without visible symptoms were collected from agro-, water ecosystems and wastelands of hungary between 1997 and 2003. virus infections were eva ... | 2004 | 15759395 |
| [the frequency of pollen allergy at the population of sarajevo region during the 2002 year]. | the frequency of pollen alergy in the sample of population of sarajevo region during the 2002 year has been investigated. the age and gender population has been different. for determination of allergy has been use of standard test carryed out in the respective laboratories of clinical center of university of sarajevo. the testing has been on the pollen of weed plant species and grass (graminejae) pollen. in the mixture of pollen weed plant species have been following plants: plantago lanceolata ... | 2005 | 16018386 |
| antifungal activity of medicinal plant extracts; preliminary screening studies. | in the setting of hiv and organ transplantation, opportunistic fungal infections have become a common cause of morbidity and mortality. thus antifungal therapy is playing a greater role in health care. traditional plants are a valuable source of novel antifungals. | 2008 | 17996411 |
| impacts of alien invasive plants on soil nutrients are correlated with initial site conditions in nw europe. | alien invasive plants are capable of modifying ecosystem function. however, it is difficult to make generalisations because impacts often appear to be species- and site-specific. in this study, we examined the impacts of seven highly invasive plant species in nw europe (fallopia japonica, heracleum mantegazzianum, impatiens glandulifera, prunus serotina, rosa rugosa, senecio inaequidens, solidago gigantea) on nutrient pools in the topsoil and the standing biomass. we tested if the impacts follow ... | 2008 | 18491146 |
| vegetative regeneration capacities of five ornamental plant invaders after shredding. | vegetation management often involves shredding to dispose of cut plant material or to destroy the vegetation itself. in the case of invasive plants, this can represent an environmental risk if the shredded material exhibits vegetative regeneration capacities. we tested the effect of shredding on aboveground and below-ground vegetative material of five ornamental widespread invaders in western europe that are likely to be managed by cutting and shredding techniques: buddleja davidii (butterfly bu ... | 2015 | 25387455 |
