The antimicrobial properties of essential oils have been demonstrated by various in vitro studies, whereas their effect on poultry farm hygiene has not been thoroughly investigated, in particular with reference to aerial treatment. The present study aims to assess the antibacterial effects of natural essential oils in broiler houses. Two experimental rooms were fogged with aqueous solutions of ...

this experiment was conducted in national institute of ornamental plants for extending vase life of anturium andranum cv. climax cut flowers. experiment was done based on completely randomized design (crd) with three replications and three cut flowers per replicate. treatments included volk oil emulsion wax coating (10, 20 and 30 percent), thyme oil (100, 150 and 250 ppm), salicylic acid (200, ...

the antifungal potential of essential oils of thyme (thymus vulgaris l.), rosemary (rosmarinus officinalis l.), and laurel (laurus nobilis l.) was determined. to establish this antifungal potential, two molds related to feed spoilage, namely, aspergillus flavus and aspergillus parasiticus, were selected. the agar dilution method was employed for the determination of antifungal activities. the i...

The antifungal, antibacterial, and antioxidant activity of four commercial essential oils (EOs) (thyme, clove, rosemary, and tea tree) from Romanian production were studied in order to assess them as bioactive compounds for active food packaging applications. The chemical composition of the oils was determined with the Folin-Ciocâlteu method and gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry...

The intensive acute exercises results in too much oxygen consumption and hence produce excessive free radicals and damage of tissues. This study was conducted to investigate the effects of thyme tea on free radical formation and antioxidant system. Eighteen elite volunteer wrestlers joined the study. The wrestlers were randomly divided into two groups to from experiment and control groups. The ...

In this study, the effect of soluble chitosan, thyme oil and linseed oil on the mold resistance of wood and its surface properties was investigated. Both low and medium molecular weight chitosan with concentration of 1 and 2% were used. Cypress wood samples with dimensions of 20 × 20 × 70 mm and moisture content of 12% were saturated by the preservatives. The results showed that the maximum abs...

537 Abstract: Drug yield and volatile oil content and its components of Thymus vulgaris were investigated during the different growing periods under both lowland and mountainous conditions. The highest drug yields were obtained from lowland conditions during the post flowering stage. Also, it has been determined that environmental conditions have significantly influenced the harvest dates. The ...
