Inhibitory activity of thirty-one ethanol extracts obtained from albedo, flavedo, seed and leaf parts of 17 cultivars of Citrus species from Turkey, the bark and leaves of Olea europaea L. from two locations (Turkey and Cyprus) as well as caffeic acid and hesperidin was tested against acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), related to the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's diseas...

Glyphosate isopropylamine and trifluralin are herbicides widely used in Turkish agriculture. The recommended field dose (RFD) (480 g of active ingredient l for both glyphosate and trifluralin) and 2 × RFD of these herbicides were added to the soil of olive trees (Olea europaea L., Oleaceae) growing on the Çukurova University Campus (Adana) under Mediterranean climate conditions in order to dete...

Cell suspensions of Olea europaea var. Galega Vulgar grown in batch culture with 0.5% (w/v) glucose were able to transport D-[(14)C]glucose according to Michaelis-Menten kinetics associated with a first-order kinetics. The monosaccharide carrier exhibited high affinity (K(m) approximately 50 micro M) and was able to transport D-glucose, D-fructose, D-galactose, D-xylose, 2-deoxy-D-glucose and 3...

The analysis of publications is devoted to the problem treatment and prevention gastroesophageal reflux disease with use cytoprotectors. Special attention paid Gastrotop, new complex plant origin. Gastrotop (Еrвоzета S.p.A, San Marino) a medication cytoprotective action, containing Mucosave CG, standardized polysaccharides from stems Indian prickly pear (Opuntia ficus‑indica, 33.5%), leaves Eur...

El olivo (Olea europaea L.) presenta un complejo panorama varietal aún no caracterizado e identificado totalmente. En este trabajo se estudió material con incertidumbre identitaria: analizaron seis loci microsatélites de 13 accesiones relacionadas al cultivar Manzanilla la colección del INTA Catamarca y dos genotipos huertos comerciales departamento Cruz Eje, Córdoba. Para confirmar identidad c...

Beta-sitosteryl-D-glucoside and oleuropein isolated from the olive tree (Olea europaea) and their hydrolysed derivatives were tested by a feeding stimulative activity bioassay using the olive weevil (Dyscerus perforatus). Although the steroidal glucoside showed potent feeding stimulative activity, the activity of the aglycone (beta-sitosterol) was significantly lower than that of the glucoside....
