Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum) is an annual herb, used as a spice and traditionally as medicine. Fenugreek finds its uses in treating hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia and disorders of gastro-intestinal and cardiovascular systems. Fenugreek cultivation in India is affected by fungal diseases like root-rot and damping-off and fungicides like carbendazim are used to overcome these infections. Fungicides play both positive and negative role in plants; fungicides protect plants from diseases and…

Modulatory Effect of an Isolated Triglyceride from Fenugreek Seed Oil on of α-Amylase, Lipase and ACE Activities, Liver-Kidney Functions and Metabolic Disorders of Diabetic Rats.

It is demonstrated that administration of pure fenugreek TG to diabetic rats ameliorated the glycogen rate in liver and muscle and inhibited lipase activity in small intestine which leads to the regulation of lipid profile.

Tetrapleura Tetraptera Fruit Protects Against Cyanide Induced Toxicity in Rats

This study indicates that T. tetraptera fruit extract possesses hepato-and-nephroprotective properties and can be used as an antidote for cyanide poisoning.

Multigenerational effects of carbendazim in Daphnia magna: From a subcellular to a population level

Overall, carbendazim induced some effects at the subcellular level that translated into changes in longevity but these later vanished in terms of population effects.

Carbendazim impends hepatic necrosis when combined with imazalil or cypermethrin.

In fruits and vegetables for human consumption, residues of these three pesticides and prolonged combined intake of low doses, which by themselves acutely would not cause any effect, may have similar hepatotoxic effects.

Gastroprotective Effect of Fenugreek Seeds (Trigonella foenum graecum) on Experimental Gastric Ulcer in Rats

Histological studies revealed that the soluble gel fraction prevents lesion formation and is effective as ranitidine, showing that fenugreek seeds possess antiulcer potential.

Restoration on tissue antioxidants by fenugreek seeds (Trigonella Foenum Graecum) in alloxan-diabetic rats.

It is suggested that the soluble portion of the seeds could be responsible for the antioxidant property, and supplementation resulted in increased antioxidant status with reduction in peroxidation.
