PAS_1	"Both powder and oil form of asafoetida decreased counts and viability of all tested isolates of Blastocystis sp. subtype 3. The degree of the inhibitory effect was highly dependent on the concentration, form and time of incubation with asafoetida extracts. The lowest concentration of both powder and oil form of asafoetida that caused complete inhibition of Blastocystis growth and highest percentage inhibition of development was 16 and 40 mg/mL, respectively. Asafoetida can potentially be used as a potent natural alternative Phytomedicine for treatment of Blastocystis sp. infection." [Amalraj A, Gopi S. Biological activities and medicinal properties of Asafoetida: A review. J Tradit Complement Med. 2016;7(3):347-359.

PAS_2	"The antimicrobial activity found to increases in the extracts in order of ethyl acetate extract, ethanol extract and methanol extract. From the present investigations, we can conclude that asafoetida possesses significant antimicrobial activity due to presence of various phytoconstituents and it could be a source of new antibiotic compounds. The above antimicrobial activity of asafoetida may be due to the combined or individual effect of the present phytoconstituents, which can be further confirmed by the extensive studies.
