Caffeic acid, rosmarinic acid and oligomers of caffeic acid with multiple catechol groups are all constituents of Salvia officinalis. Their antioxidant potential was investigated with regard to their radical scavenging activity and the stability and structure of the intermediate radicals. Pulse-radiolytic studies revealed very high rate constants with hydroxyl radicals. Evidence from kinetic mo...

The trichomes and chemical composition of three species the genus Salvia wild-grown (Salvia lanigera, spinosa) cultured officinalis) were studied in Anbar governate, components stem leaves by Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry(GC-MS), addition to studying epidermis (upper lower epidermis) Light microscope. Important differences appeared us study, where it was found that some compounds without...

To investigate the method for quantitatively determining chlorogenic acid in Verbena officinalis L. extract; and to determine its content and in-vitro antibacterial activity. Cylinder-plate method and MIC assay were employed to compare the antibacterial activity between different concentrations of Verbena officinalis L. extracts; and to evaluate the antioxidant activity of various extracts in t...
