Sanguisorba officinalis L. is known to have anti-inflammatory properties. However, the potential effects of S. officinalis against asthma have not been reported. In the present study, we investigated the protective effects and underlying mechanisms of S. officinalis in a murine ovalbumin (OVA)-induced asthma model. Mice were sensitized and challenged by OVA inhalation to induce airway inflammat...

Two experiments were conducted to determine the effect of offering a multi-material innovative (MMI) feed including: Vitex agnus-castus, Thymus vulgaris, Lavandula angustifolia, Marigold (Calendula officinalis) on curtails molting and sex hormone concentrations in canaries and laying hens. In the first study, a total of 120 female molted canaries were allotted in to 12 cages of 10 birds with 4 ...

This work has demonstrated the ixodicidal and insect antifeedant effects of essential oils from 14 experimentally cultivated aromatic plants. The strong corresponded to Thymus zygis, vulgaris, Satureja montana, Oreganum virens , Mentha suaveolens . moderately active were Lavandula angustifolia, piperita, spicata, Artemisa herba-alba Rosmarinus officinalis most effective larvicidal compounds pip...

Traditionally, melissopalynological and physicochemical analyses have been the most used to determine the botanical origin of honey. However, when performed individually, these analyses may provide less unambiguous results, making it difficult to discriminate between mono and multifloral honeys. In this context, with the aim of better characterizing this beehive product, a selection of 112 Lava...

The influence of elicitation on rosmarinic acid biosynthesis by Lavandula vera MM cell suspension culture was investigated using vanadyl sulfate as an abiotic elicitor. It was established that 12 h after treatment with 25 mg/l vanadyl sulfate the rosmarinic acid production was increased up to 3.92 g/l (2.8 times higher compared to the control cultivation). No significant amounts of rosmarinic a...

The volatile oil compositions of five Stachys species (Stachys officinalis L., St. grandiflora Host., St. byzantina Koch., St. germanica L. and St. sylvatica L.) have been studied using a GC/MS technique. All species gave low yields of oil. From St. officinalis 38 compounds were separated and partly identified, from St. grandiflora 24, St. byzantina 30, St. germanica 29 and St. sylvatica 43. Al...
