EVALUATION OF EFFICACY FOR THE COLD AQUEOUS EXTRACT OF Ricinus comminus LEAVES ON THE VIABILITY OF THE PRIMARY PRIMATES OF THE Echinococcus granulosus PARASITE In vitro | PLANT CELL BIOTECHNOLOGY AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY

There are two explanations for the spread of this disease: the first is the failure to detect infection in the early stages, as pathological signs do not occur until after the cyst has grown in size, resulting in strain on the neighbouring tissues, and the second is the lack of the means of treatment, and the disease is similar in severity. This research aims to evaluate the effect of different aqueous extract concentrations of Ricinus comminus leaves on the viability of Echinococcuss granulosus primary larvae in vitro. In the Najaf massacre, water bags were obtained from the livers of infected sheep. By adding (1 ml) of the initial head suspension to (1 ml) of each aqueous extract concentration of the plant, the amount and viability of these rhizomes have been determined. The study showed that the proportion of essential rosettes at concentration (10) mg / ml per minute decreased from 97 percent to 38 percent (180). While the percentage of infection decreased at this specific time (180 minutes) from 96 percent to 0 percent at a concentration of 20 mg/ml, we conclude that the inhibitory effect of the plant extract on the interference with the respiratory chain enzymes containing the thiol group (sulfur - hydrogen. SH).

EBOLA VIRUS: GENETIC DIVERSITY, SYMPTOMS, DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENTS | Asian Journal of Current Research

 Ebola virus is one of the most deadly pathogen known to infect humans Ebola virus disease has been diagnosed in the US, originating from patients who travelled during incubation period.  The first recognized Ebola outbreak occurs in 1976 near the Ebola River in Zaire (now in Congo). Before the 2014 epidemic about 2300 cases with greater than 1500 death has been documented from this disease. Ebola virus belongs to the Filoviridae family and genus Ebola virus. The disease has evolved a global public health menace due to large immigrant population. It is also termed as Ebola hemorrhagic fever (EHF). The transmission of virus to people from wild animals and spreads with in the human population via human to human transmission. Pregnant women who are recovered from Ebola virus still carry the virus in breast milk or Symptoms of hemorrhagic in pregnancy related fluid and tissues.

FUNGI ASSOCIATED WITH SAFFRON (Crocus sativus) IN MOROCCO

In Morocco, saffron is grown in the areas of Taliouine (provine of Taroudante) and Taznakht (province of Ouarzazate). Studies on fungi related to this crop are still very rare. Mycological studies on mycoflora associated with Saffron (Crocus sativus) from the main producing area, located in the Taliouine region was carried out between September (corms for cultivation) and December (soil and roots of saffron plants), 2018. The samples (corms and roots with symptoms) were cut up in fragments and disinfected with alcohol. Then, these fragments were cultured on Potato Sucrose Agar and incubated in the growth chamber for 7 days at 28°C. The pure cultures obtained were identified morphologically and microscopically. The fungal complex identified in the soils, corms and roots of saffron plants was almost identical, including Fusarium solani, F. oxysporum, F. culmorum, F. roseum, Fusarium sp., Aspergillus fumigatus, A. niger, Trichoderma sp., Rhizopus oryzae and Penicillium sp. Species of the genus Fusarium, considered as true pathogens of different crops, are the most represented, with isolation percentages ranging from 6 to 20%. Trichoderma sp., a biocontrol agent against various pathogens, has also been isolated from the soils, corms and roots of saffron plants, with a percentage of isolation ranging from 8 to 13%. This is the first time that the species of the genus Fusarium (F. solani, F. culmorum and F. roseum) and Trichoderma have been isolated in Morocco from Crocus sativus.
