India has a great wealth of various naturally occurring plant drugs which have great potential pharmacological activities. Datura stramonium (D. stramonium) is one of the widely well known folklore medicinal herbs. Datura (Familiy-solanaceae), a genus of poisonous herbs, shrubs or small trees, is distributed throughout the tropical and warm temperate region of the world. The word ˜Datura is derived from the Arabic name ˜Tatorah or the Hindustani ˜Dhatura.This genus is represented by about 11 species (Datura ceratocaula, D. innoxia, D. metel, D. quercifolia, D. stramonium, D. tatula, D. discolor, D. wrightii, D. alba, D. fastuosa, D. ferox) of which D. innoxia, D. metel and D. stramonium are important drug plant whereas some are ornamenatals.

Bioeradication:research and insights on five common invasive plants in centr...Richard Gardner
This presentation will discuss the effects of native organism systems on five common invasive non-native plants, i.e. bioeradication. Research over the last several years has shown that native organism systems are beginning to eradicate various invasive non-native plants from local ecosystems in central Pennsylvania and nearby states. This is very different than the magic bullet approach of biocontrol in that it relies on mutualistic native systems instead of a single non-native organism. The concept is based on Darwinian evolution over the (extended) period of time it takes a system to develop. Naturally, this approach is slower than biocontrol. However, instead of “control” with all the potential consequences of introducing another non-native into an ecosystem, the goal is extinction of the target non-native with lower ecosystem risk and lower negative environmental impact.

The group collected plant samples from three locations on Mount Obama using a quadrat sampling method to identify species through DNA barcoding. They were able to extract DNA from 11 samples and sequence DNA from 8 plants. By inputting the sequences into databases, the group identified three species: Emilia coccinea, Solanum, and Passiflora suberosa. There was no overlap between the species found at the peak and those previously collected at the base. The experiment proved DNA barcoding can accurately identify biodiversity in Antigua.
The document summarizes a study that used DNA barcoding to analyze plant diversity between two beaches on an island. Samples were collected from each beach and DNA was extracted and analyzed. Three plant species were identified from each beach: Calotropis procera, Cynodon dactylon, and Coccoloba uvifera from one beach, and Azadirachta indica, Heteropterys cordifolia, Coccoloba swartzii, and Antigonon leptopus from the other. A Simpson's diversity index analysis found no significant difference in diversity between the beaches based on the small sample size. The study concluded larger samples are needed to make accurate comparisons.
This document provides a review of the plant Solanum xanthocarpum (Yellow Berried Night Shade). It discusses the plant's traditional uses in Ayurveda to treat conditions like asthma, cough, fever, and pain. The review summarizes the plant's phytochemistry, highlighting compounds isolated from it like solasodine, diosgenin, β-sitosterol, and carpesterol. It also discusses various studies that have shown the plant possesses anti-inflammatory, hypoglycemic, hepatoprotective and other pharmacological activities. However, the review notes many of the plant's traditional effects still need further scientific validation through additional research and clinical trials.
Thoughts on Ailanthus altissima: biological and chemical eradication methodsRichard Gardner
This document discusses how Western science has been hindered by its Roman/Christian heritage, which has encouraged an engineering approach rather than observation-based understanding. This heritage views the world as inherently flawed and in need of human improvement or control. As a result, science focuses on developing solutions to perceived problems rather than patient observation. Reductionism oversimplifies complex systems, and fields like medicine, ecology and food science aim to alter nature rather than understand it. The author argues for a return to classical observational science.
Total Phenolic Content and Antioxydant Activity of Two Rhododendron Species C...Premier Publishers
Six Rhododendron species, one of which (R. smirnowii) is endemic, are growing naturally in Turkey, especially in Northeastern Anatolia (Eastern Part of Black Sea Region). Total phenolic content and antioxidant activity of two Rhododendron species collected in Rize at different altitudes from their natural habitats were determined. Samples obtained from Rize province (Turkey) were screened for total phenolic content by the modified Folin–Ciocalteu method, for potential antioxidant activity using phospho-molybdenum assay and by the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) and FRAP method for antiradical activity. Total phenolic content and antioxidant activity of plant parts (flower, leaf) of two Rhododenron sepecies, namely R. luteum L. and R. ponticum L. were determined. The total phenolic content of leaves of R. luteum L. collected from different altitudes ranged between 112,363 and 219,071 mg GAE/gr DW. Total phenolic content of flower parts of the same species ranged between 82,275 and 201,642 mg GAE/gr DW. The total phenolic content of different parts of R. ponticum L. were higher compared with R. luteum L. On the other hand, the antioxidant activity values of leaf parts of R. luteum L. were lower compared with flower parts and like the phenolic content the antioxidant activity values of different plant parts of R. ponticum L. were higher compared with that of R. lutem L. İn the present study it was determined that leaf and flower parts of two Rhododendron species could be diffrentiated regarding their total phenolic content and antioxidant activity.
This document contains information on the identifying features and medicinal uses of several plants, including Arctium, Artemisia princeps, kudzu, common chickweed, and Shepherd's purse. It describes their scientific classifications, distinguishing physical traits, traditional herbal applications, and in some cases modern research on medicinal compounds and properties. Key uses include as diuretics, to treat migraines, inflammation, skin conditions, and hemorrhaging.
The DNA barcoding project aimed to identify known and unknown plant species in Antigua and provide insights into plant biodiversity and possible environmental changes. Samples were collected and DNA was extracted and sequenced from the rbcL gene. Of the 18 samples tested, DNA was extracted from 15 and 11 species were identified through DNA sequencing and database analysis. The identified species were mostly tropical plants native to the region or South Asia. Many of the plants have traditional medicinal uses.
Ephedra Distribution, Ethnobotany and Pharmacological Propertiesijtsrd
Ephedra is one of the largest genera of the Ephedraceae family, which is distributed in arid and semiarid regions of the world. In the traditional medicine from several countries some species from the genus are commonly used to treat asthma, cold, flu, chills, fever, headache, nasal congestion, and cough. The chemical constituents of Ephedra species have been of research interest for decades due to their contents of ephedrine type alkaloids and its pharmacological properties. Other chemical constituents such as phenolic and amino acid derivatives also have resulted attractive and have provided evidence based supporting of the ethno medical uses of the Ephedra species. In recent years, research has been expanded to explore the endophytic fungal diversity associated to Ephedra species, as well as, the chemical constituents derived from these fungi and their pharmacological bio prospecting. Two additional aspects that illustrate the chemical diversity of Ephedra genus are the chemotaxonomy approaches and the use of ephedrine type alkaloids as building blocks in organic synthesis. American Ephedra species, especially those that exist in Mexico, are considered to lack ephedrine type alkaloids. In this sense, the phytochemical study of Mexican Ephedra species is a promising area of research to corroborate their ephedrine type alkaloids content and, in turn, discover new chemical compounds with potential biological activity.

Theophrastus and Dioscorides were two early writers on herbalism. Theophrastus, a student of Aristotle and Plato, wrote one of the earliest classifications of plants. Dioscorides, a Greek physician, wrote De Materia Medica between 50-70 AD which described around 600 plant species and their medical uses. Herbal medicine, also called botanical or phytomedicine, refers to using plants for medicinal purposes and has a long tradition outside conventional medicine. Herbalism can treat many conditions and its main benefit is boosting energy and strengthening internal organ functions.

Ephedra Distribution, Ethnobotany and Pharmacological Propertiesijtsrd
Ephedra is one of the largest genera of the Ephedraceae family, which is distributed in arid and semiarid regions of the world. In the traditional medicine from several countries some species from the genus are commonly used to treat asthma, cold, flu, chills, fever, headache, nasal congestion, and cough. The chemical constituents of Ephedra species have been of research interest for decades due to their contents of ephedrine type alkaloids and its pharmacological properties. Other chemical constituents such as phenolic and amino acid derivatives also have resulted attractive and have provided evidence based supporting of the ethno medical uses of the Ephedra species. In recent years, research has been expanded to explore the endophytic fungal diversity associated to Ephedra species, as well as, the chemical constituents derived from these fungi and their pharmacological bio prospecting. Two additional aspects that illustrate the chemical diversity of Ephedra genus are the chemotaxonomy approaches and the use of ephedrine type alkaloids as building blocks in organic synthesis. American Ephedra species, especially those that exist in Mexico, are considered to lack ephedrine type alkaloids. In this sense, the phytochemical study of Mexican Ephedra species is a promising area of research to corroborate their ephedrine type alkaloids content and, in turn, discover new chemical compounds with potential biological activity.

The Impact of Digital Media on the Decentralization of Power and the Erosion ...ijtsrd
The impact of digital media on the distribution of power and the weakening of traditional gatekeepers has gained considerable attention in recent years. The adoption of digital technologies and the internet has resulted in declining influence and power for traditional gatekeepers such as publishing houses and news organizations. Simultaneously, digital media has facilitated the emergence of new voices and players in the media industry. Digital medias impact on power decentralization and gatekeeper erosion is visible in several ways. One significant aspect is the democratization of information, which enables anyone with an internet connection to publish and share content globally, leading to citizen journalism and bypassing traditional gatekeepers. Another aspect is the disruption of conventional media industry business models, as traditional organizations struggle to adjust to the decrease in advertising revenue and the rise of digital platforms. Alternative business models, such as subscription models and crowdfunding, have become more prevalent, leading to the emergence of new players. Overall, the impact of digital media on the distribution of power and the weakening of traditional gatekeepers has brought about significant changes in the media landscape and the way information is shared. Further research is required to fully comprehend the implications of these changes and their impact on society.

The Role of Mentoring and Its Influence on the Effectiveness of the Teaching ...ijtsrd
This paper reports on a study which was conducted to investigate the role of mentoring and its influence on the effectiveness of the teaching of Physics in secondary schools in the South West Region of Cameroon. The study adopted the convergent parallel mixed methods design, focusing on respondents in secondary schools in the South West Region of Cameroon. Both quantitative and qualitative data were collected, analysed separately, and the results were compared to see if the findings confirm or disconfirm each other. The quantitative analysis found that majority of the respondents 72 of Physics teachers affirmed that they had more experienced colleagues as mentors to help build their confidence, improve their teaching, and help them improve their effectiveness and efficiency in guiding learners’ achievements. Only 28 of the respondents disagreed with these statements. With majority respondents 72 agreeing with the statements, it implies that in most secondary schools, experienced Physics teachers act as mentors to build teachers’ confidence in teaching and improving students’ learning. The interview qualitative data analysis summarized how secondary school Principals use meetings with mentors and mentees to promote mentorship in the school milieu. This has helped strengthen teachers’ classroom practices in secondary schools in the South West Region of Cameroon. With the results confirming each other, the study recommends that mentoring should focus on helping teachers employ social interactions and instructional practices feedback and clarity in teaching that have direct measurable impact on students’ learning achievements.

This study primarily focuses on the design of a high side buck converter using an Arduino microcontroller. The converter is specifically intended for use in DC DC applications, particularly in standalone solar PV systems where the PV output voltage exceeds the load or battery voltage. To evaluate the performance of the converter, simulation experiments are conducted using Proteus Software. These simulations provide insights into the input and output voltages, currents, powers, and efficiency under different state of charge SoC conditions of a 12V,70Ah rechargeable lead acid battery. Additionally, the hardware design of the converter is implemented, and practical data is collected through operation, monitoring, and recording. By comparing the simulation results with the practical results, the efficiency and performance of the designed converter are assessed. The findings indicate that while the buck converter is suitable for practical use in standalone PV systems, its efficiency is compromised due to a lower output current.

Sustainable Energy by Paul A. Adekunte | Matthew N. O. Sadiku | Janet O. Sadikuijtsrd
Energy becomes sustainable if it meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Some of the definitions of sustainable energy include the considerations of environmental aspects such as greenhouse gas emissions, social, and economic aspects such as energy poverty. Generally far more sustainable than fossil fuel are renewable energy sources such as wind, hydroelectric power, solar, and geothermal energy sources. Worthy of note is that some renewable energy projects, like the clearing of forests to produce biofuels, can cause severe environmental damage. The sustainability of nuclear power which is a low carbon source is highly debated because of concerns about radioactive waste, nuclear proliferation, and accidents. The switching from coal to natural gas has environmental benefits, including a lower climate impact, but could lead to delay in switching to more sustainable options. “Carbon capture and storage” can be built into power plants to remove the carbon dioxide CO2 emissions, but this technology is expensive and has rarely been implemented. Leading non renewable energy sources around the world is fossil fuels, coal, petroleum, and natural gas. Nuclear energy is usually considered another non renewable energy source, although nuclear energy itself is a renewable energy source, but the material used in nuclear power plants is not. The paper addresses the issue of sustainable energy, its attendant benefits to the future generation, and humanity in general. Paul A. Adekunte | Matthew N. O. Sadiku | Janet O.

Concepts for Sudan Survey Act Implementations Executive Regulations and Stand...ijtsrd
This paper aims to outline the executive regulations, survey standards, and specifications required for the implementation of the Sudan Survey Act, and for regulating and organizing all surveying work activities in Sudan. The act has been discussed for more than 5 years. The Land Survey Act was initiated by the Sudan Survey Authority and all official legislations were headed by the Sudan Ministry of Justice till it was issued in 2022. The paper presents conceptual guidelines to be used for the Survey Act implementation and to regulate the survey work practice, standardizing the field surveys, processing, quality control, procedures, and the processes related to survey work carried out by the stakeholders and relevant authorities in Sudan. The conceptual guidelines are meant to improve the quality and harmonization of geospatial data and to aid decision making processes as well as geospatial information systems. The established comprehensive executive regulations will govern and regulate the implementation of the Sudan Survey Geomatics Act in all surveying and mapping practices undertaken by the Sudan Survey Authority SSA and state local survey departments for public or private sector organizations. The targeted standards and specifications include the reference frame, projection, coordinate systems, and the guidelines and specifications that must be followed in the field of survey work, processes, and mapping products. In the last few decades, there has been a growing awareness of the importance of geomatics activities and measurements on the Earths surface in space and time, together with observing and mapping the changes. In such cases, data must be captured promptly, standardized, and obtained with more accuracy and specified in much detail. The paper will also highlight the current situation in Sudan, the degree to which survey standards are used, the problems encountered, and the errors that arise from not using the standards and survey specifications.

Towards the Implementation of the Sudan Interpolated Geoid Model Khartoum Sta...ijtsrd
The discussions between ellipsoid and geoid have invoked many researchers during the recent decades, especially during the GNSS technology era, which had witnessed a great deal of development but still geoid undulation requires more investigations. To figure out a solution for Sudans local geoid, this research has tried to intake the possibility of determining the geoid model by following two approaches, gravimetric and geometrical geoid model determination, by making use of GNSS leveling benchmarks at Khartoum state. The Benchmarks are well distributed in the study area, in which, the horizontal coordinates and the height above the ellipsoid have been observed by GNSS while orthometric heights were carried out using precise leveling. The Global Geopotential Model GGM represented in EGM2008 has been exploited to figure out the geoid undulation at the benchmarks in the study area. This is followed by a fitting process, that has been done to suit the geoid undulation data which has been computed using GNSS leveling data and geoid undulation inspired by the EGM2008. Two geoid surfaces were created after the fitting process to ensure that they are identical and both of them could be counted for getting the same geoid undulation with an acceptable accuracy. In this respect, statistical operation played an important role in ensuring the consistency and integrity of the model by applying cross validation techniques splitting the data into training and testing datasets for building the geoid model and testing its eligibility. The geometrical solution for geoid undulation computation has been utilized by applying straightforward equations that facilitate the calculation of the geoid undulation directly through applying statistical techniques for the GNSS leveling data of the study area to get the common equation parameters values that could be utilized to calculate geoid undulation of any position in the study area within the claimed accuracy. Both systems were checked and proved eligible to be used within the study area with acceptable accuracy which may contribute to solving the geoid undulation problem in the Khartoum area, and be further generalized to determine the geoid model over the entire country, and this could be considered in the future, for regional and continental geoid model.

Integration of Indian Indigenous Knowledge System in Management Prospects and...ijtsrd
The diversity of indigenous knowledge systems in India is vast and can vary significantly between different communities and regions. Preserving and respecting these knowledge systems is crucial for maintaining cultural heritage, promoting sustainable practices, and fostering cross cultural understanding. In this paper, an overview of the prospects and challenges associated with incorporating Indian indigenous knowledge into management is explored. It is found that IIKS helps in management in many areas like sustainable development, tourism, food security, natural resource management, cultural preservation and innovation, etc. However, IIKS integration with management faces some challenges in the form of a lack of documentation, cultural sensitivity, language barriers legal framework, etc. Savita Lathwal "Integration of Indian Indigenous Knowledge System in Management: Prospects and Challenges" Published in International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development (ijtsrd), ISSN: 2456-6470, Volume-8 | Issue-1 , February 2024, URL: https://www.ijtsrd.com/papers/ijtsrd63500.pdf Paper Url: https://www.ijtsrd.com/management/accounting-and-finance/63500/integration-of-indian-indigenous-knowledge-system-in-management-prospects-and-challenges/savita-lathwal

Thornapple. All species of Datura
contain powerful alkaloids which in sufficient
quantities have the power to kill. The main alkaloids
are Scopolamine, Hyoscyamin and Atropine.
Scopolamine is intermediate in its central action
between atropine and hyoscine. It causes less
stimulation of the central nervous system than
atropine and is a weaker sedative and hypnotic than
hyoscine but is less powerful than atropine in its
peripheral action. It’s used to relieve fermon rigidity
and excessive salivation in paralysis agitans. It is less
reliable as a rapid sedative than hyoscine.
Hyoscyamine is narcotic, antispasmodic and anodyne,
and is used chiefly to relieve the spasm of the
bronchioles in asthma. The leaves are applied to boils,
sores and fish bites and the juice of the flowers is used
for earache. The juice expressed from the fruit is
applied to the scalp for curing dandruff and falling
hair. There is some dispute regarding the regions of
the origin of Datura species. Due to the pres

Shiva’s chest and the Garuda Purana gives instruction
for rituall offerings to Datura flowers, which should
be made to Yogashwara (Shiva) on the 13th
day of
waxing moon in January. Sadhus and yogis smoke the
leaves and seeds mixed with Ganja, another plant
sacred to Shiva. Besides, Kali worshippers also held
Datura sacred. Nevertheless, despite its unpropitious
reputation as a witches herb, it was valued and
commonly employed for its medicinal properties
throughout the world. Datura acts antispasmodically
and has a particularly relaxant effect on the
respiratory muscles. Furthermore, it suppresses
glandular secretion, thus reducing the amount of
mucous excreted through the lungs. The combination
of these valuable properties makes it an ideal remedy
for the treatment of Asthma. Throughout the middle
ages Datura flowers were commonly sold for their
aphrodisiac qualities all over central and southern
Europe. They had the reputation of breaking down
any resistance to sexual approaches.
Datura Stramonium
It is a very important ancient herb, having great
religious importance. Its flower are believed to be
associated with Lord Shiva. Ancient Hindu physicians
regarded this herb as an intoxicant, with digestive,
emitic and healing properties. Datura is infected by a
number of pathogens such as Fungal (Roy et al.,
1998), Bacterial (Kranz et al., 1977, Bashon and
Okony 1986, Viczian et al., 1988, Stevenson et al.,
2001, Gera et al., 2004) Nematode (Vau terin et al.,
1995), Phytoplasma (Al Ani et al., 2001) and Viral
(Biichen-Ormond., 2006, Steele & Thomas., 2009).
The present investigation was taken up to characterize
the virus causing mosaic disease in Datura
stramonium.
(Figure.1 D. stramonium)
2. Existing Studies:
The review of literature infecting Datura stramonium
has revealed the infection of about 60 viruses on this
important weed and medicinal plant but only 22
viruses have been recorded to cause natural infection
in Datura.
2.1: Capoor and Verma : A mosaic disease of
Datura alba was first described by Capoor and Verma
in 1948 and they suggested the name distortion
mosaic of Datura alba. The virus caused light and
dark green mosaic accompanied by blister like
patches of dark green portion on leaf lamina,
distortion and reduction in leaf size. The plants were
seldom dwarfed. The causal virus withstood heating
for 10 min. at 60o
C, retained infectivity at a dilution
of 1 in 10,000 and after storage for 13 days at room
temperature (80o
F). The virus also infected Nicotiana
tabacum, Petunia sp. and Solanum tuberosum and
produced local necrotic lesions on Phaseolus vulgaris,
Vigna sinensis and Solanun melongena. The virus was
also transmitted by Myzus persicae.
2.2: Salamon (1989): It recorded the natural
occurrence of a new potyvirus (a strain of henbane
mosaic virus) spontaneously infecting the thornapple
(D. stramonium L.), in Hungary. Hiskias et al. (2001),
studied biological characteristics of tomato mild virus
a potyvirus isolated from tomato thorn apple in
Ethiopia. The two isolates (246/94 and 277/94) from
thornapple (Datura stramonmium) and tomato to (L.

lycopersicon) respectively, were characterized
biologically and serologically and compared with
local isolates of potato virus isolated from tomato and
other viruses and isolates infecting vegetables. Both
isolates of TMMV infected only 16 of 28 plants
species inoculated by sap and induced
indistinguishable symptoms. The most susceptible
host were Datura metel, Datura stramonium and
Nicotiana glutinosa L. However, these isolates
differed from the PVY isolate infecting Datura spp.
and Solanum demissum L., while Potato Virus Y
isolate infected Chenopodium quinoa wild and
Capsicum annuum L., isolate 277/94 was transmitted
non persistently by Myzus persicae Sulz. from
diseased tomato to virus free Datura stramonium,
Datura metel L., Nicotiana glutinosa and tomato
plants and from this back to virus-free test plants of
each species purified particles isolate 277/94
contained a single protein species with a molecular
weight of 39 KDa in double antibody sandwich
enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (DAS-ELISA)
antiserum to isolate 277/94 reacted strongly with a
Yemeni isolate of TMMV, (Y 90/7), but did not react
with any other potyvirus. This clearly shows that the
Yemeni and Ethiopian isolates of TMMV are similar
serologically.
2.3: Bonifec et al. (2002), carried out a survey to
detect characterization Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl
Virus (TYLCV) and identify its reservoir weed host in
six regions (Arusha, Morogoro, Dodoma, Iringa,
Kilimonjaro and Dar se salaam) in Tanzania. Disease
severity was scored on a scale of 0 to 4.
2.4: Rakib et al. (2011), evaluated the efficacy of
frog fruit (Lippia-nodiflora L.), Datura (Datura metel
L.) and Thuja (Thuja orientalis L.) extracts for
inducing systemic resistance against PYV common
strain in potato plants. The alcoholic extract of the
above plants were used as tuber dipping before
cultivation or foliage spraying after germination. The
PVYo multiplication in the plants was followed
serologically by ELISA. Results showed that dipping
the tubers in the extract at 1,2,3 g/l for 24 hours, or
spraying the foliage by the extracts at the same
concentration exhibited a protection period to the
plant against PVY infection up to one month in the
presence of virus source with the vector Myzus
persicae Sulz. Means of ELISA readings at 405 nm
for samples from treated plants were found to be 0.11
and 0.125 for L. nodiflora extract X 0.13 and 0.12 for
Datura metel extract 0.13 and 0.12 for T. orientalis
extract for the three concentration and the two
methods of application respectively, compared with
2.52 for untreated plants. No significant differences
between the concentrations or between the methods of
application on virus multiplication were observed.
3. Structure of Datura stramonium:
Datura stramonium is a foul-smelling, erect, annual,
freely branching herb that forms a bush up to 60 to
150 cm (2 to 5 ft) tall.The root is long, thick, fibrous,
and white. The stem is stout, erect, leafy, smooth, and
pale yellow-green. The stem forks off repeatedly into
branches, and each fork forms a leaf and a single,
erect flower.The leaves are about 8 to 20 cm (3–8 in)
long, smooth, toothed, soft, and irregularly
undulated.[12]
The upper surface of the leaves is a
darker green, and the bottom is a light green. The
leaves have a bitter and nauseating taste, which is
imparted to extracts of the herb, and remains even
after the leaves have been dried.Datura
stramonium generally flowers throughout the summer.
The fragrant flowers are trumpet-shaped, white to
creamy or violet, and 6 to 9 cm (2 1
2–3 1
2 in) long,
and grow on short stems from either the axils of the
leaves or the places where the branches fork.
The calyx is long and tubular, swollen at the bottom,
and sharply angled, surmounted by five sharp teeth.
The corolla, which is folded and only partially open,
is white, funnel-shaped, and has prominent ribs. The
flowers open at night, emitting a pleasant fragrance,
and are fed upon by nocturnal moths. The egg-shaped
seed capsule is 3 to 8 cm (1–3 in) in diameter and
either covered with spines or bald. At maturity, it
splits into four chambers, each with dozens of small,
black seeds.

4. Pharmacological Properties:
4.1: Antiasthmatic activity
D. stromonium in asthma treatment and possible
effects on prenatal development was studied.
Exposure of the foetus to D. stromonium when a
mother use it for asthma, will cause a continuous
release of acetylcholine, resulting in the
desensitization of nicotinic receptors, this could
ultimately result in permanent damage to the foetus.
Therefore we conclude that this African herbal
remedy should be used with caution during
pregnancy.
4.2 Anticholinergic activity
The alkaloids found in D. stramonium, are organic
esters used clinically as anticholinergic agents. Jimson
weed has been reported as a drug of abuse and has
been involved in the accidental poisoning of humans
and animals. Symptoms of acute jimson weed
poisoning included dryness of the mouth and extreme
thirst, dryness of the skin, pupil dilation and impaired
vision, urinary retention, rapid heartbeat, confusion,
restlessness, hallucinations, and loss of consciousness.
The anticholinergic syndrome results from the
inhibition of central and peripheral muscarinic
neurotransmission.
4.3 Acaricidal, repellent and oviposition deterrent
properties
The ethanol extracts obtained from both leaf and seed
in D. stromonium (Solanaceae) were investigated for
acaricidal, repellent and oviposition deterrent
properties against adult two-spotted spider mites (T.
urticaeKoch) (Acari: Tetranychidae) under laboratory
conditions. Leaf and seed extracts, which were
applied in 167.25 and 145.75 g/L concentrations,
respectively (using a Petri leaf disc-spray tower
method), caused 98% and 25% mortality among
spider mite adults after 48 h. These results suggest
that D. stramoniumextracts could be used to manage
the two-spotted spider mite[21].
4.4 Antimicrobial Activity
The methanol extracts of D. stromonium and Datura
inoxia showed activity against Gram positive bacteria
in a dose dependent manner. Little or no antimicrobial
activity was found against Escherichia
coli and Psuedomonas aeruginosa[22]. The anti-
microbial activity of combined crude ethanolic extract
of D. stromonium, Terminalia arjuna and Withania
somnifera in cup plate diffusion method for
antibacterial and antifungal activity. The extracts were
subjected to screening to detect potential
antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus,
Bacillus subtilus, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella
pneumoniae, Micrococcus luteus and Candida
albicans with compare Ciprofloxacin standard
drug[23].
4.5 Anticancer activity
An integrated approach is needed to manage cancer
using the growing body of knowledge gained through
scientific developments. Thousands of herbal and
traditional compounds are being screened worldwide

to validate their use as anti-cancerous drugs. D.
stromonium in therapeutic dose of 0.05-0.10 g was
used to cure cancer. Likely unsafe produce vomiting,
hypertension, loss of consciousness may lead to coma
but may interact with anti-cholinergic drugs[24].
4.6 Antiinflamatory activity
Coriandrum sativum (C. sativum), D.
stromonium and Azadirachta indica (A. indica) are
traditionally used in treatment of inflammation.
Ethanolic extracts of fruits of C. sativum, leaves of D.
stromonium. Ethanolic extracts of fruits of C.
sativum, leaves of D. stromonium and A. indica were
subjected to preliminary screening for anti-
inflammatory activity in albino rats. All ethanolic
extracts exhibited significant anti-inflammatory
activity comparable to the standard drug diclofenac
sodium against carrageenan induced rat paw edema
method. Among these plant A. indica showed
maximum anti-inflammatory activity per hour.
5. Virus culture specifications:
Single lesion culture form Chenopodium
amaranticolor was used and the virus isolate was
maintained on Datura stramonium by mechanical sap
inoculation. Periodic check to ensure identity of the
isolate was made on Datura stramonium,
Chenopodium amaranticolor and other appropriate
hosts. Chenopodium amaranticolor plants were used
in all cases. Standard extract was used as inoculum for
maintaining the culture.
