Traditional medicine is still remaining as the main resource for livestock treating health problems. Hence, the purpose of the study was to conduct ethnoveterinary study on medicinal plant species used to treat diseases of livestock in Kilte Awulaelo District, Tigray, Ethiopia. Methods: An ethnoveterinary study of medicinal plants was conducted in the District. The study employed common ethnoveterinary methods including semi-structured interviews, field observations, preference ranking exercises and paired comparisons. A total of 72 informants were purposefully selected, with the help of local administrators, elders and other members of the local community. Results: A total of 50 species belonging to 44 genera and 27 families in which family Solanaceae is represented by 8 species (16%), followed by family Euphorbiaceae with 5 species (10%) used as medicine. Present survey reveals t...

The reaction with genetic matter provides for the carcinogenic properties of Cr 6+ [12, 19]. Chromite ores are used as refractory bricks; chromium (0) metal is used as ferrochromium in steel and other alloy production; while chromium (III) and chromium (VI) chemicals are used for

Research paper thumbnail of Traditional Medicinal Plants Used in the Treatment of Diabetes Mellitus: A Review

This disease leads to serious problem over time if it is not properly managed. The current review is aimed at providing a comprehensive review from different research articles carried out on traditional medicinal plants/herbs used for the treatment/ management of diabetes. Several plants have been used for the management of diabetes mellitus. The search was done in Google Scholar, pub med, and Science Direct databases using the key words diabetes, traditional medicine, antidiabetic, medicinal plants, management and anti-hyperglycemic effects of diabetes. In this review, Allium cepa L., Allium sativum L., Aloe vera (L), Lepidium sativum L., Oxalis corniculata L, Ricinus communis L, Thymus schimperi Ronniger, Trigonella foenum graecum L and Zingiber officinale Roscoe found to have repeatedly positive impact for the management of diabetes. Thus, it is very important to utilize those medicinal plants for the diabetic patients as an alternative choice for the management of diabetes.
