From the ethyl acetate and methanol extract of the aerial parts of Satureja atropatana Bonge, which belongs to the Lamiaceae family, four flavonoids were isolated. Their structures were determined to be 5,6,3'-trihydroxy-7,8,4'-trimethoxyflavone (1), 5,6-dihydroxy-7,8,3',4'-tetramethoxyflavone or 5-desmethoxynobiletin (2), 5,6,4'-trihydroxy-7,8,3'-trimethoxyflavone or thymonin (3) and luteolin ...

Drying allows water to be removed and food preserved, however, this operation can degrade color. Punamuña leaves are aromatic used for medicinal purposes in the Peruvian Andes. This research aimed determine model drying kinetics, diffusivity coefficient (Def), activation energy (Ea), color of punamuña leaves. A horizontal dryer was at 40, 50, 60 °C airspeed 1.0 0.5 m / s; kinetics modeled with ...

This work covers the chemical composition and antimicrobial activities of the essential oils isolated from Satureja thymbra and Thymbra spicata analyzed using gC/MS. The main components of S. thymbra oil were thymol (33.8 %), γ-terpinene (30.8 %) and p-cymene (11.8 %). The main components in T. spicata oil were carvacrol (74.5 %) and γ-terpinene (11.2 %). The oils and their main components, thy...
