Prosopis cineraria (L.) Druce. (Family Leguminosae, subfamily Mimosoideae), is locally known as Ghaf. The plant effects socially, ethnologically, traditionally and remedially in the life of the people. The proposition is to summarize the current studies on up-to-date and comprehensive information, highlighting bioactive potential of the plant. The review aimed to revise the information available regarding the therapeutic activities published in scientific journals and to provide a comprehensive tabulated data in such a way that it is useful for academic researcher. This paper includes a synthesis of information, the use of indigenous, traditional and scientific knowledge accumulated in the past years leading to therapeutic potential of the plant. A through scientific search of P. cineraria (L.) was carried out on phytochemical constituents viz. leaf, stem, pod, bark, and their pharmacological data and safety. The review is helpful in utilizing abridged scientific knowledge of the P. cineraria (L.), identifying gaps in, and future possibilities to work with.

“…Nutrient broth (10% peptone, 0.5% labanco, 0.5% NaCl, and pH 7.5) was prepared for the growth of S. aureus and E. coli, while liquid medium (1% peptone, 4% glucose, and pH 5.8) was the growth medium for C. albicans. By comparing with standard antibiotics, ethyl ether and alcoholic extracts can inhibit the growth of S. aureus (0.80 and 0.74 I/ C a , respectively), E. coli (0.97 and 0.89 I/C a , respectively), and C. albicans (0.62 and 0.86 I/m a , respectively), where I means inhibition zone, a means ratio of diameters of the inhibition zone to extracts (10 µg) under observation (I) and diameter of inhibition zone due to standard reference antibiotics, C means chloramphenicol (30 µg) against S. aureus in 30 mm and E. coli in 32 mm, and m means Mycostatin (100 units) against C. albicans in 32 mm [71].…”

Prosopis is a regional cash crop that is widely grown in arid, semiarid, tropical, and subtropical areas. Compared with other legume plants, Prosopis is underutilized and has great potentialities. Prosopis not only is a good source of timber, construction, fencing material, and gum, but also can be applied for food, beverage, feed, and medicine. Prosopis contains numerous phytochemical constituents, including carbohydrates, proteins, fatty acids, minerals, and vitamins, while varieties of phenolic compounds have also been identified from different parts of Prosopis. Flavonoids (especially C-glycosyl flavonoids), tannins, catechin, 4′-O-methyl-gallocatechin, mesquitol, and quercetin O-glycosides are significant phenolic contents in Prosopis. Various extracts of Prosopis displayed a wide range of biological properties, such as antioxidant, antihyperglycemic, antibacterial, anthelmintic, antitumor, and anticancer. Additionally, Prosopis has the potential to be an ideal diet that contains abundant dietary fiber, minerals, galactomannans, and low-fat content. However, the bioactivity and pharmacological properties associated with Prosopis were influenced by the bioavailability of phytochemicals, various antinutritional compounds, and the interactions of protein and phenolic compounds. The bioavailability of Prosopis is mainly affected by phenolic contents, especially catechin. The antinutritional compounds negatively affect the nutritional qualities of Prosopis, which can be prevented by heating. The protein-phenolic compound interactions can help the human body to absorb quercetin from Prosopis. This literature review aimed to provide systematic information on the physical, biochemical, pharmacological, and nutritional properties and potential applications of Prosopis.

Background: This search was carried to investigate the phytochemical of Petroselinum sativum L.parsley and the antioxidant effect of parsley volatile oils leaves extract on oxidative stress [MDA (Malondialdehyde enzyme), LPO ( lipid peroxidation enzyme ) level and antioxidant glutathione enzyme (GSH)] in adult male albino rats.Objective: This research work aimed to study the antioxidant effect of volatile oils of parsley leaves extract against environment-induced free radicals oxidative stress in male albino rats. Methods: 30 male adult rats were used. Rats were divided into five Groups: G1 (Control group) received only 0.9% normal saline, G2 received P.sativum L volatile oils extracts 50 Mg / Kg B.W, G3-received P.sativum L volatile oils of extracts 100 mg/kg B.W, G4-received P.sativum L volatile oils of extracts 200 mg/kg B.W, G5-received P.sativum L volatile oils extracts 250 mg/kg B.W volatile oils of extracts. The extract was injected (i.p.) in some rats for 20 days and 30 days and 60 days. Then blood samples were collected for measuring MDA, LPO and GSH levels in experimental groups and compered with control. Results: Results indicated that MDA and LPO levels were significantly decreased at concentrations of 50, 100, 200 and 250 mg/kg B.W., while GSH levels significantly increased at the same concentrations compared to the control group. Conclusions: There was a dose-dependent marked decrease in the levels of MDA and LPO and a dose-dependent marked increase glutathione in male rats treated with parsley extract.
