Tannins and essential oils (EOs) have been previously described for their properties to mitigate ruminal methane ammonia. Their combination might be even more efficient, as they different modes of action on rumen pathways. This study aimed screen in vitro the mitigating variously combining tannins with EO a total 48 treatments: 12 single additives, 10 mg or 20 tannins/g diet, establish basal ef...

Published data on the effects of essential oils (EO) on in vivo nutrient digestibility in sheep are contradictory. In 2 experiments, the effect of thymol and carvacrol on nutrient digestibility was studied in sheep fed with high (70%) or low (52%) concentrate diets, using incomplete Latin Square designs. The essential oils were mixed with the concentrate portion of the diet at the rate of 0.0, ...

In his editorial accompanying our systematic review of aromatherapy (June Journal),1 Vickers2 concludes that ‘it is not of pressing scientific importance to know whether aromatherapy enhances the effects of massage, since the essential oils used in aromatherapy are not particularly toxic or expensive’. I believe that this statement is misleading, perhaps even unscientific. If massage therapy al...

Background and Objectives: Essential oils (EOs) possess a wide range of significant properties including antiphlogistic, spasmolytic and antinociceptive effects. In this study, we use EOs from Thymus daenensis, Thymus caramanicus and Ziziphora clinopodiodes. Materials and Methods: In this study, the plants were collected from the Botany Department, were air dried, grinded and set for extract...

The (Zingiber officinale) is a plant of the zingiberáceas family, its rhizome widely used in gastronomy for pungent aroma and flavor. Essential oils (EO) are natural compounds; they have 25 to 70 components with different concentrations. Α-Zingiberene α-Felandrene main volumes between 20% 70%. For extraction AE samples from 10 Colombian geographical locations were used, obtained by microwave ra...
