To investigate the effects of irrigation intervals and humic acid application on some phophysiological and biochemical of thyme (Thymus vulgaris), the experimental in the form of factorial in the design complete randomized block in four replications at Miandoab University Research Field in 2019. Experimental treatments were at four levels of irrigation intervals (once every three days, once eve...

A comparative study was made between the acaricidal activities of some essential oils: rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis L.), lavandula (Lavandula angustifolia Mill.), thyme (Thymus vulgaris L.) and ziziphora (Ziziphora clinopodioides Lam.) on the important mite pest, Tetranychus cinnabarinus Boisduval, the carmine spider mite, oncut roses during 2010-2012. The sublethal concentrations of ziziph...

The aim of this study was to elucidate the effect of dietary variations of linoleic acid on the development of deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA)-salt hypertension in rats. All rats were divided into three groups and fed one of the following isocaloric diets with 8% NaCl: a high linoleic acid (HLA) (20% sunflower oil), a moderate linoleic acid (5% lard oil + 15% sunflower oil), or a low linolei...

BACKGROUND Despite the medical discoveries of different medicines and advanced ways of treatment, statistics have shown that the number of patients is increasing. This may be due to chemical drugs used in healthcare, agriculture, and diets. This soaring demand in medicines urges us to look for natural sources such as aromatic plants and essential oils, which are rich in efficient compounds. M...

Thymus serpyllum L. (wild thyme) is a perennial shrub, native to areas of northern and central Europe. Its aerial parts are most frequently used in ethnomedicine (mainly for treating illnesses and problems related to the respiratory and gastrointestinal systems), although recently its essential oils are becoming more popular as an important plant-derived product. The composition of these oils i...

Essential oils from aerial parts of Mentha piperita, M. spicata, Thymus vulgaris, Origanum vulgare, O. applii, Aloysia triphylla, Ocimum gratissimum, O. basilicum were obtained by steam destillation using a Clevenger-type system. These oils were screened for antibacterial and anti-Candida albicans activity using bioautographic method. Subsequently, minimal inhibitory concentration from oils was...

GC-MS/FID analysis of the essential oils 10 Thymus species, belonging to Sect. Serpyllum, led identification 118 compounds accounting for 97.79–99.69% total oil. moesiacus, T. jankae, vandasii, longicaulis and sibthorpii were characterized by presence linalool (19.37–35.21%) as major or dominant component, but differed significantly in content other prominent components: linalyl acetate, gerani...

The aim of this work was to study the chemical composition and antioxidant activity essential oils Thymus ciliatus (Desf.) Benth from middle Algeria obtained aerial parts by hydrodistillation using a Clevenger-type apparatus. oil analyzed gas chromatography (GC) coupled with mass spectrometry (GC-MS). capacity values T extracts were determined 2 different complementary assays: free radical scav...

The antibacterial activity of essential oils extracted from Origanum compactum, Thymus capitatus, Foeniculum vulgare, and Rosmarinus officinalis was assessed with the well diffusion method a microbroth dilution assay against E. coli isolated carcasses rabbits. chemical composition these also determined by gas chromatography coupled mass spectrometry (GC/MS). results this study indicate that hig...
