In this present study, it was aimed to determine the composition of essential oil obtained by water distillation from aerial parts Origanum acutidens. The analysed GC-FID and GC/MS. Carvacrol (69.3%), p-cymene (8.3%), y-terpinene (6.3%), β-caryophyllene (2.7%) borneol (2.2%) were found as main constituents. addition, headspace-solid phase microextraction using a Polydimethylsiloxane-Divinylbenz...

Introduction: Greatly increased use of antifungal therapies has resulted in the development of multidrug resistant. The phenolic compound carvacrol have been reported to have anti-Candida activity. This work is an attempt to examine effect of carvacrol on ergosterol synthesis against multidrug resistant Candida albicans. Methods: This cross-sectional study has been conducted on 30 immune-compr...

Objectives: To compare the effect of intraperitoneal administered Carvacrol with bevacizumab in an oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR) model rats.Materials and Methods: Twenty-eight newborn rats were included study OIR was created 50/10% oxygen style. The consisted 4 groups each rat received injection 0.01 mL once on postnatal 14th day. While not Group I (control group), it for Groups II, III, IV....

Foodborne illness outbreaks have significantly impacted public health. The contact antibacterial nanomaterials may potential migration of and thus bring safety concerns. In this work, we develop photo-triggered nano-generators for on-demand release essential oil vapor to achieve a non-contact strategy between target bacteria. This nano-generator (Fe3O4@[email protected]/carvacrol, FPZC) is comp...

The chemical composition and antibacterial activity of essential oils from 10 commonly consumed herbs: Citrus aurantium, C. limon, Lavandula angustifolia, Matricaria chamomilla, Mentha piperita, M. spicata, Ocimum basilicum, Origanum vulgare, Thymus vulgaris and Salvia officinalis have been determined. The antibacterial activity of these oils and their main components; i.e. camphor, carvacrol, ...

A very simple, rapid and sensitive dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) followed by gas chromatography and flame ionization detection (GC-FID) was developed for the determination of phenol and carvacrol in honey samples. A mixture of 100 μl dichloromethane (extraction solvent) and 0.5 ml acetonitrile (disperser solvent) was rapidly injected into sample solution. Thereby a cloudy sol...

The composition of essential oil isolated from Satureja thymbra, growing wild in Libya, was analyzed by GC and GC-MS. The essential oil was characterized by γ-terpinene (39.23%), thymol (25.16%), p-cymene (7.17%) and carvacrol (4.18%) as the major constituents. Antioxidant activity was analyzed using the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging method. It possessed strong an...

Carvacrol, thymol, and eugenol are naturally occurring phenolic compounds known to possess antimicrobial activity against a range of bacteria, as well as antioxidant activity. Biodegradable poly(anhydride-esters) composed of an ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) backbone and antimicrobial pendant groups (i.e., carvacrol, thymol, or eugenol) were synthesized via solution polymerization. The ...
