 ƒ A series of experiments were conducted to evaluate the in vitro antimicrobial activity of Suaeda aegyptiaca crude extracts against some pathogenic microorganisms as well as the therapeutical activity in vivo of combination of crude extracts of (alkaloids, phenols and terpens) on mice skin that previously infected with the fungus Trichophyton rubrum. ƒ Chemical analysis showed that S. aegyptiaca contains different active compounds:

The present study was designed to evaluate some immunological and cytogenetic effects of Plantago lanceolata aqueous extract and cyclophosphamide in albino male mice (in vivo). The immunological parameters were total and absolute counts of leucocytes, phagocytic index of peritoneal cells, total serum IgG level, hypersensitivity reactions (Arthus and delayed type), while cytogenetic evaluations included micronucleus formation in polychromatic erythrocytes of bone marrow ,metaphase index of bone marrow and spleen cells and sperm-head abnormalities.
