Cumin is an important spice that has been used for centuries in various cuisines around the world. Two cumin varieties (GC 3 and GC 4) were subjected to mutation understand macromutational modifications. Ethyl methane sulphonate (EMS) @ 0.6% gamma rays (190 Gy) significantly reduced germination plant survival percentage as compared 0.2% EMS 130 Gy. Physical mutagens showed higher suravival than...

context : cumin ( cuminum cyminum l.) as a member of the apiaceae family is one of the most important medicinal plants in the world. objective : an experiment was conducted for evaluation of callus induction optimization in cumin accessions (shahdad, koohbanan, badrood and afghanistan). materials and methods : factorial experiment based on completely randomized design (crd) with three replicati...

background: many efforts have been done to find effective agents against resistant pathogens. cuminum cyminum l. (cumin) is an aromatic plant within the apiaceae family. it has a variety of purposes and demonstrates antimicrobial and antioxidant properties. this study evaluated the activity of c. cyminum extract and essential oil against bacterial isolates which cause urinary tract infection, i...

the essential oil from the seeds of cuminum cyminum l. was isolated by hydrodistillation method and the chemical composition was determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (gc/ms). the yield of the oil was found to be 3.0% (on dry weight basis). a total of twenty six components, representing 96.7% of the oil were identified. cuminaldehyde (49.4%), p-cymene (17.4%), b-pinene (6.3%), a-ter...

This study aimed to investigate the antibacterial and antibiofilm activities of essential oils Cuminum cyminum (CEO) Foeniculum vulgare (FEO) on clinically isolated Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) Prevotella intermedia intermedia). Subgingival plaque samples were collected from periodontal pockets (≥6 mm) patients with generalized severe periodontitis. Microbiological molecular tests p...
