The genus Artedia L. (Apiaceae) is represented in Turkey by 485 species and altogether 511 taxa. rate of endemism 37.7%. plant material was collected from the province Kahramanmaraş, Turkey. essential oils fruits aerial parts were obtained hydrodistillation using a Clevenger type apparatus. Chemical compositions analysed GC-FID GC-MS techniques. main components oil characterized as 1-octadecano...

Coriandrum sativum L. has a distinct flavour and aroma which is due to the essential oil present in it. The main component of the essential oil of the fruit is monoterpenoids and linalool. All parts of the plant are edible. The content and composition of essential oil is influenced by climatic conditions, agro technology and stage of maturity at time of harvesting, geography of growing region, ...

The present study was undertaken to investigate the chemical composition and effectiveness of the essential oil isolated from Echinophora spinosa on different bacterial and fungal species. Chemical analysis (GC/MS) showed that δ3-carene (60,86 %), α-phellandrene (7,12%), p-cymene (6,22 %), myrcene (4,82 %) and β-phellandrene (2,73 %) were dominant components in this oil. Essential oil tested sh...

Introduction:  Plants are a rich source of phenolic compounds that as natural antioxidants prevent oxidative stress and are very good for health. Ziziphora clinopodioides belongs to Lamiaceae family and its aerial parts are used in pharmaceutical and food industries. It is effective in the treatment of heart disorders, cold, depression, diarrhea, coughing, migraine and...

The essential oils are extracted from plant compounds and can present activities antimicrobial and antioxidant properties. The goals of the present study were: (a) to determine the chemical composition of the essential oil of Guarea kunthiana A. Juss using the method of gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC-MS); (b) to evaluate the antimicrobial potential of this oil using the bro...

BACKGROUND It has been recently recognized that oxidative stress, helminth and microbial infections are the cause of much illness found in the underdeveloped, developing and developed countries. The present study was undertaken to identify the chemical composition, and to assess anthelmintic, antimicrobial and antioxidant effects of Thymus bovei essential oil. METHODS The chemical composition...
