Ultrasonic assist with headspace solid phase microextraction (UA-HS-SPME) have been applied, for the first time, for the extraction of volatile organic compounds of Carum carvi L. from Iran. The oils obtained were analyzed by GC–MS. Different experimental parameters such as fiber's coating type, sonication time, extraction time and temperature, and desorption time were investigated. Results sho...

Fungal plant diseases are considered one of the most destructive for plants. In this current study, Neoscytalidium dimidiatum as a fungal pathogen was isolated from an infected Carum carvi L. (C. carvi) first time and controlled it using clove essential oil nanoemulsion (CEONE). This identified morphologically genetically, then deposited in gene bank under accession number OQ338188. CEONE prepa...

Cuminum cyminum and Carum carvi are the sources of cumin and caraway seeds respectively, which have been used since antiquity for the treatment of various indications in traditional healing systems in wide geographical areas. Cumin and caraway seeds are rich sources of essential oils and have been actively researched for their chemical composition and biological activities. In recent times (esp...

Plants are unique sources of useful metabolites. Plant essential oils display a wide range of antimicrobial effects against various pathogens. Here, we studied the essential oil from the seeds of Carum copticum. We monitored aflatoxin by high-performance liquid chromatography. Results show that Carum copticum essential oil inhibits Asergillus parasiticus growth and prevents aflatoxin production...

Caraway seeds contain between 0.5–7% essential oil, rich in monoterpenes that have a characteristic aroma and chemical properties. oil has several bioactive compounds are of industrial importance, particularly for pharmaceutical health care products. Carvone limonene the main terpenes present caraway which along with some unique fatty acids (i.e. petroselinic acid) determine (Carum carvi L.) qu...
