A plant family of the order ZINGIBERALES, subclass Zingiberidae, class Liliopsida best known for banana (MUSA). The slender false trunk, formed by leaf sheaths of the spirally arranged leaves, may rise to 15 meters (50 feet). There is a crown of large leaves at the top.

Mutagenicity of the Musa paradisiaca (Musaceae) fruit peel extract in mouse peripheral blood cells in vivo. (1/5)

Plants are a source of many biologically active products and nowadays they are of great interest to the pharmaceutical industry. In the present study, the mutagenic potential of the Musa paradisiaca fruit peel extract was assessed by the single-cell gel electrophoresis (SCGE) and micronucleus assays. Animals were treated orally with three different concentrations of the extract (1000, 1500, and 2000 mg/kg body weight). Peripheral blood cells of Swiss mice were collected 24 h after treatment for the SCGE assay and 48 and 72 h for the micronucleus test. The results showed that the two higher doses of the extract of M. paradisiaca induced statistically significant increases in the average numbers of DNA damage in peripheral blood leukocytes for the two higher doses and a significant increase in the mean of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes in the three doses tested. The polychromatic/normochromatic erythrocyte ratio scored in the treated groups was not statistically different from the negative control. The data obtained indicate that fruit peel extract from M. paradisiaca showed mutagenic effect in the peripheral blood cells of Swiss albino mice.  (+info)

Calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc and copper, compositions of human milk from populations with cereal and 'enset' based diets. (5/5)

BACKGROUND: As breast milk is normally the only source of food in the early stages of life, the dietary levels of the essential elements in the milk of lactating mothers are significantly important. Ethiopia is a country of many nations and nationalities with distinct dietary habits. This variation in food habit may result in the variation of the nutritional quality of milk of lactating mothers who live in different part of the country, which in turn may affect the intake of nutrients by breast-fed infants. Therefore, a cross-sectional study of the levels of Ca, Mg, Fe, Zn and Cu in milk of mothers from societies with cereal and 'enset' based dietary habits was carried out to assess the influence of maternal diet on the levels of the elements in human milk. METHODS: Milk samples were collected from 27 voluntary mothers in Jimma and in 18 rural areas of Welkite. Breast milk samples were collected within four days postpartum and the concentrations of the elements were determined by using FAAS. RESULTS: Average concentrations (mg/L) of the elements determined in the milk of mothers from Jimma and rural Welkite respectively were: Ca (758 +/- 107, 579 +/- 168); Mg (22.6 +/- 7.87, 30.5 +/- 13.4); Fe (0.50 +/- 0.08, 0.41 +/- 0.17); Zn (2.3 +/- 1.2, 2.49 +/- 0.88) and Cu (0.28 +/- 0.14, 0.16 +/- 0.08). CONCLUSIONS: Milk samples from Jimma were found to have significantly higher levels of Ca and Cu than those of rural Welkite (P < 0.05). Breast milk Ca and Cu levels were thus found to be influenced by dietary intake.  (+info)

Musaceae is a botanical term that refers to a family of tropical plants known for their large, attractive flowers and fleshy fruits. The family includes several genera, but the most well-known are Musa (bananas and plantains) and Ensete (false bananas). These plants are native to Southeast Asia and Africa's tropical regions.

The fruit of these plants, also known as musa, is widely consumed and cultivated throughout the world for its sweet taste and high nutritional value. Bananas are a great source of dietary fiber, vitamin C, potassium, and vitamin B6. The plant's stem and leaves are also used in various traditional medicinal practices in different cultures.

"Musa" is the genus name for bananas and plantains in the botanical classification system. It belongs to the family Musaceae and includes over 70 species of tropical herbaceous plants that are native to Southeast Asia. The fruit produced by these plants is also commonly referred to as "bananas" or "plantains," depending on the specific variety and its culinary use.

However, I believe you may have been looking for a medical term, and I apologize for any confusion. In that case, I should note that "Musa" is not a recognized medical term in English. If you have any further questions or need clarification on a different medical term, please let me know!

Tropical plants host a range of fungal niches including endophytes, pathogens, epiphytes and saprobes. A study undertaken to discover the saprobic fungal species associated with Musa sp. (banana) from northern Thailand found two hyphomycetous taxa of Spegazzinia (Didymosphaeriaceae, Pleosporales). These were collected during the dry season and their morpho-molecular taxonomic relationships were investigated. Based on phylogenetic analysis of combined SSU, LSU, ITS and TEF1-α sequence data (77% ML, 0.99 BYPP) and contrasting morphological features to the sister taxon, we introduce Spegazzinia musae as a novel species from a decaying leaf of Musa sp. Details on the taxonomy, ecology and geographical distribution of Spegazzinia species are provided. In addition, we report S. deightonii as a new host record from Musa sp. Our data further validate the taxonomic placement of Spegazzinia in Didymosphaeriaceae.
