The following aromatic plants of Greek origin, Origanum dictamnus (dictamus), Eucalyptus globulus (eucalyptus), Origanum vulgare L. (oregano), Mellisa officinalis L. (balm mint) and Sideritis cretica (mountain tea), were examined for the content of phenolic substances. Reversed phase HPLC coupled to diode array detector (DAD) was used for the analysis of the plant extracts. The gas chromatograp...

BACKGROUND Brucellaabortus is a gram-negative facultative intracellular bacterium that can cause a highly contagious disease in sheep, goats, cattle and one-humped camels. It is responsible for one of the most important zoonosis in human. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of Mentha piperita, Origanum majorana, Citrus lemon, Cinnamomum verum and Myristica fragrans essential volatile...

Insect control has been accomplished by insecticides many years ago. Such can be useful in dealing with insects our environment; but when they are used wrongly, have hazards to the environment too. The current study continues evaluate potential alleviative effects of marjoram (Origanum majorana L.) on coragen-induced alterations hematological and hormonal parameters, as well renal testicular st...

We analyse the dependence of the rates of the LFV charged lepton decays µ → e + γ, τ → e+γ, τ → µ+γ (l i → l j +γ) and their ratios, predicted in the class of SUSY theories with seesaw mechanism of ν-mass generation and soft SUSY breaking with universal boundary conditions at the GUT scale, on the Majorana CP-violation phases in the PMNS neutrino mixing matrix and the " leptogenesis " CP-violat...

Nanotechnology has gained great interest due to its widespread application. Anticancer activity of Origanum majorana extract and silver nanoparticles was investigated by MTT assay using human pancreatic adenocarcinoma cell lines (Capan-1), mouse normal fibroblast (L929), colon line (Caco-2). AgNPs@Om exhibited the excellent cytotoxic effect on Capan-1 with viability 29.17% 25.70%, 22.49%, 21.16...

A demonstration that the observed neutrinos are not Majorana particles Abstract It is shown that Majorana neutrinos cannot couple vectorially to the neutral-current SU(2) L x U(1) gauge field of the standard model. Since strong evidence for the existence of such a vector coupling in neutral current reactions has recently been presented by the Charm II collaboration, it is unlikely that the obse...
