in last two decades, considerable attempts have been made to introduce new botanical based insecticides. in this study, repellent effects of the essential oils taken from lavandula angustifolia and zataria multiflora on callosobruchus maculatus adults were evaluated. the essential oils were extracted using a clevenger apparatus. bioassays were conducted under 30±1ºc, 60±5% rh and dark condition...

in order to study the physiological effects of some of the essential oils in comparison with 8-hydroxyquinoline in cut lisianthus flowers (eustoma grandiflorum l.), an experimental was conducted in a completely randomized design with three replications. traetments included 8-hydroxyquinoline, essential oil of australian cheesewood (pittosporum undudatum) and rosmary oil(rosmarinus officinalis) ...

Sequential ultrasound-microwave associated extraction (SUMAE) is a combination of ultrasound waves and microwaves energies in which ultrasonic extraction is used as a pretreatment. It was performed to extract essential oil from Zataria multiflora. The extraction conditions were optimized by response surface methodology (RSM) and Central Composite Design (CCD). The antioxidant and antibacterial ...

OBJECTIVES In insulin resistance, the insulin action in liver, muscles and adipocytes decreases and result in hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia and hyperinsulinemia. In this study we evaluate the effect of Zataria multiflora extract on insulin sensitivity in high fructose fed insulin resistant rats, since this extract was shown antihyperglycemic effect in streptozotocin induced diabetes in rats. MA...

Over loading of iron oxide nanoparticles can causes the liver injury through overproduction of free radicals. Zataria multiflora Boiss. (Lamiaceae) has been used for many years in folk medicine due to its antioxidant and antibacterial activities. This study evaluates -for the first time- the effect of Z. multiflora essential oil (EO) against iron oxide nanoparticles hepatotoxicity in rat model....

zataria multiflora essential oil, hydrogen peroxide(h2o2) and malachite green (mg) were used to assess their effects on rainbow trout egg hatchability and survival of larvae up to 1-1.2 g body weight using spring water at 12.5 °c, dissovled oxygen 8-9 mg/l, carbon dioxide 7±2 mg/l, ammunia
