The leaf essential oil yields of clementine, cypress, rosemary, tea, and thyme were 0.22, 0.87, 1.46, 1.20, 0.72%, respectively, based on the dry weight plant material. oils contained highest levels oxygenated monoterpenes (60.14-91.70%). Rosemary tea rich in 1,8-cineole (49.98% 57.55%, respectively), they have potent antifungal activity against Alternaria alternata strain (MIC = 5000 μg/ml). T...

Essential oils of aniseed, cinnamon leaf, red thyme, tea tree, peppermint, nutmeg, rosemary, and pine were tested in vitro against lice, Pediculus humanus. All the oils except for rosemary and pine were found to be effective in the laboratory when applied in an alcoholic solution and followed by a rinse the following morning in an essential oil/vinegar/water mixture. Peppermint and nutmeg were ...

The study focuses on developing novel cottage cheese containing spices with acceptable sensory properties, increased biological value and extended shelf life. Thirty types of cheese with added fresh or dried parsley, dill, pepper, garlic and rosemary were produced. Characterisation of phenolic compounds, antioxidant capacity and antibacterial activity of spices and cheese samples were evaluated...

Pine needles are one of the most commonly used bioindicators of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the environment. Therefore, the main objective of the current research was the assessment of PAHs accumulation potential of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) needles in comparison to wild rosemary (Rhododendron tomentosum Harmaja) and birch (Betula spp.) leaves. Our study was carried out on...

In this paper we compare the formal specification languages Z and Abstract Machine Notation (AMN); the latter of which is due to Abrial. The strategy adopted is that of presenting the same specification both in Z and AMN and of commenting on salient differences as they arise. The specification chosen is a slightly revised version of the specification of an Internal Telephone Number Database fou...

A straightforward protocol was developed to produce rosemary particles using whey and soy protein carriers. The post-processing retention of carnosic acid (CA), carnosol (CR) rosmarinic (RA), their bioaccessibility, in vitro antioxidant activity, storage stability were investigated protein-rosemary compared extract (RME). Solids recovery highest for or whey-inulin blend complexed with (R–WPI, R...

The objective of our work was the valorisation four aromatic plants growing spontaneously in Kabylia (Algeria) by evaluation their insecticidal activity against black bean aphid Aphis fabae Scopoli, 1763. These are oregano, thyme, rosemary and lavender. were subjected to a phytochemical analysis determine secondary metabolites composition. results obtained showed that extracts toxic A. can sign...

background: the rosemary extract (re) possesses various antioxidant, cytoprotective and cognition-improving bioactivities. in this study, we postulated which doses of re have a more effect on the hippocampus of middle-aged rats.   methods : in this experimental study, thirty-two middle-aged male wistar rats were fed by different doses (50,100 and 200 mg/kg/day) of re (containing 40% carnosic ac...
