Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExtraction and Evaluation of Antibacterial Activity from Selected Flowering PlantsErlina Abdullah, Raha Ahmad Raus, Parveen JamalThe huge diversity of Malaysian flora has various chemical constituents that make them as outstanding natural product candidates for the treatment of infectious diseases. The screening practice for phytochemical compound in them is essential to explore more natural sources to replace synthetic antibiotics, which generally have side effects such as hypersensitivity, immune-suppression and allergic reactions. Antibacterial activities have been detected … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 20 Feb 2012 · 16,320 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDistribution, Arrangement and Interconnectedness of Cell Surface Receptor sites in the body of an OrganismUtoh-Nedosa, Uchechukwu AnastasiaCell surface receptors have been identified as the sites of disease infectivity in living organisms in a previous study. Drugs used for the treatment or cure of infections have to eliminate infections through attacking infective organisms at the cell surface receptors to which the infective organisms are attached. Problem statement: The present study examines a wide sample of living things … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 26 Jan 2012 · 7,358 accessesView PDFCite
