in order to find the plant extracts with antifungal activity, 18 plant species were screened. in this study, distilled water, methanol, chloroform, aceton and ethanol were employed to obtain crude extract from plant samples. the extracts were tested against sugar beet root rot agents, rhizoctonia solani and phytophthora drechsleri. the inhibitory effect of different extracts was investigated by...

The purpose of this study was to elucidate some factors affecting the growth of Salmonella typhimurium. These factors included Carum copticum essential oil (0%, 0.015%, 0.03% and 0.06%), temperature (25 ˚C and 35 ˚C), pH (5, 6 and 7) and inoculum size (103 and 105  CFU mL-1). Brain heart infusion broth was used as the growth medium. There...

The essential oil was obtained from crushed seeds, extracted through Hydrodistillation method. The percentage yield of Carum roxburghianum was found 4.7% respectively. Physical properties i.e., colour, odour, specific gravity, solubility, refractive index, acid value and ester value were recorded according to the standard procedures. Chemical composition of essential oil of Carum roxburghianum ...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate the chemical composition and antimicrobial activity of Satureja hortensis and Trachyspermum copticum essential oils against different kinds of microorganisms in vitro. MATERIAL AND METHODS The antimicrobial activity was evaluated by micro broth dilution assay and the chemical composition of essential oils was analyzed by GC and G...

Acinetobacter baumannii is categorized as a red alert pathogen that is increasingly associated with a high mortality rate in infected patients due to its resistance to extensive antibiotics. In this study, we evaluated the antibacterial activities of some essential oils (Oliveria decumbens, Pelargonium graveolens, Eugenia caryophyllata, Ziziphora tenuir and Trachyspermum copticum oils) against ...

The β2-adrenergic effects of macerated extract, aqueous extract, ethanol extract, and essential oil of Carum copticum, 5 nM propranolol, and saline were tested by performing cumulative Log concentration-response curves of isoprenaline-induced relaxation of precontracted isolated guinea pig tracheal chains in three different conditions including: non-incubated (group 1, n=9) incubated with 1...
