Cinnamon is an unusual tropical plant belonging to the Lauraceae family. It has been used for hundreds of years as a flavor additive, but it also in natural Eastern medicine. extracts are vital oils that contain biologically active compounds, such cinnamon aldehyde, cinnamic alcohol, acid, and cinnamate. antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial properties treat diseases diabetes cardiovasc...

The rotational spectrum of trans-cinnamaldehyde ((E)-3-phenyl-2-propenal, C9H8O) was recorded by chirped-pulse Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy in the frequency range of 2-8.5 GHz. The odourant molecule is the essential component of cinnamon oil and causes the characteristic smell. The rotational signatures of two conformers were observed: s-trans-trans- and s-cis-trans-cinnamaldehyde. ...

The nematicidal activity of two cassia, Cinnamomum cassia, oils (Especial and true), four cinnamon, Cinnamomum zey-lanicum, oils (technical, #500, bark and green leaf), and their compounds (e.g., trans-cinnamaldehyde and trans-cinnamic acid) toward adult Bursaphelenchus xylophilus was examined by a direct contact bioassay. Results were compared with those of 34 related compounds. As judged by 2...

The chemical composition of four oil samples of Xylopia aethiopica isolated from trunk bark harvested in three Ivoirian forests was investigated by chromatographic (GC with retention indices) and spectroscopic techniques (MS, 13C NMR). Thirty compounds accounting for 90.2-98.2% of the oil have been identified. X. aethiopica stem bark produced a monoterpene-rich essential oil, whose composition ...

The volatile oil from the stem bark of Scutia buxifolia (Rhamnaceae) has been obtained by hydrodistillation and analyzed by GC-MS. Twenty-one components were identified representing 99.93 % of the total oil composition, spathulenol (35.87%), β-cubebene (17.26%), germacrene D (6.43%), linalool (5.19%), carvacrol (4.05%) were the main components of S. buxifolia essential oil. Antioxidant and anti...

Cinnamon is one of the most commonly used spices worldwide. In some Arab countries, cinnamon with other ingredients to relieve bronchospasm and treatment airways-related disorders. current study, GC, GC-MS tracheal relaxant effect comparison were performed using three available types in Saudi Arabia, Cinnamomum verum (Ceylon cinnamon), C. cassia (Chinese cinnamon) loureiroi (Vietnamese cinnamon...

Introduction: Research related to alternative medicine from natural ingredients that can relieve the effects of inflammation is important, especially reduce unwanted side antiinflammatory drugs. Cinnamomum burmannii (Nees & T. Nees) Blume a native Indonesian species which contains essential oils and reported for its anti-inflammatory effect. Therefore, this research was conducted determine meta...

The aim of this study was to investigate the antioxidant activities of various parts (barks, buds, and leaves) of Cinnamomum cassia extracted with ethanol and supercritical fluid extraction (SFE). For the antioxidant activity comparison, IC50 values of the SFE and ethanol extracts in the DPPH scavenging assay were 0.562-10.090 mg/mL and 0.072-0.208 mg/mL, and the Trolox equivalent antioxidant c...

The present study was undertaken to isolate oil from Mangifera indica bark, Identification of various phytoconstituents and screening of immunostimulant activity in experimental animals. Methods: Immunostimulant activity was evaluated in rats as well as in mice by determining neutrophil adhesion to nylon threads and phagocytic index. Levamisole at a dose of 50 mg/kg, b.w was used as standard dr...
