Nowadays, consumers are demanding more natural foods, obliging the industry to include natural antioxidants in foods. Natural antioxidants have been used instead of synthetic antioxidants to retard lipid oxidation in foods to improve their quality and nutritional value. This review discusses some aspects of recent research on antioxidant activity of plant extracts and natural compounds to impro...

Background: Common sage (Salvia officinalis) is a popular culinary and medicinal herb. A literature survey has revealed that sage oils can vary widely in their chemical compositions. The purpose of this study was to examine sage essential oil from different sources/origins and to define the possible chemotypes of sage oil. Methods: Three different samples of sage leaf essential oil have been ob...

The effects of different boron doses (boron-free, pure boron, diluted in 1/2 and1/8 ratios) on the ratio and quality essential oil medicinal sage (Salvia officinalis L.) during years 2016 2017 were investigated. Field trials conducted with randomized block design triplicates. S. L. was obtained by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC–MS) flame ionization detection (FID). required measuremen...

Traditional use and clinical reports suggest that the culinary herb sage (Salvia officinalis) may be effective for patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease (AD). In this study, we evaluated the effect of a standardized extract from the leaves of S. officinalis (SOE) and its active ingredient rosmarinic acid on Alzheimer amyloid-beta peptide (Abeta)-induced toxicity in cultured rat phe...

23 The supercritical CO2 extraction of four different plants from Lamiaceae family, 24 namely oregano (Origanum vulgare), thyme (Thymus zygis), sage (Salvia officinalis) 25 and rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) was carried out in an experimental pilot-plant 26 comprising an extraction cell of two liters capacity. 600 g of leaves of each plant 27 material, with the same pre-treatment, were extra...

Herbs are commonly used in the food and pharmaceutical industries. Their vast use is connected with their antibacterial or antioxidising properties, as well as numerous pro-health properties. The aim of the presented research was assessment of the quantitative and qualitative composition of moulds which contaminate samples of dried herbs: Sage (Salvia officinalis L.), Camomile (Matricaria chamo...

In June 2020, many plants exhibited symptoms of root rot and foliar blight in the experimental field common sage Şanlıurfa province, Turkey.

Koch’s postulates were fulfilled by succe...

Two species belonging to the genus Salvia (Salvia brachyodon Vandas and Salvia officinalis L.) from Dalmatian region were studied for their essential oil composition, genome size and base composition. These species showed the same chromosome number (2n 1⁄4 14), similar genome size (0.95 and 0.97 pg/2C) and base composition (38.52 and 38.55 GC%), respectively. This is the first estimation of DNA...
