There have been efforts to overcome the problem in treatment of cancer using medicinal plants. It has been shown that Citrus essential oil of contains different terpens with antitumor activities. In this study we sought to determine the cytotoxicity of essential oils of Iranian Citrus limon (L.), C. medica (L.), C. sinsensis (L.) peels on cancer cell lines. Essential oils were prepared by hydr...

BACKGROUND This work aims at describing the traditional uses, to determine the antimicrobial potential of two different extracts hexane, acetone of the leaves of Citrus unshiu, Citrus sinensis, Citrus limon, Laurus nobilis, Citrus paradisi on clinical strain of H. pylori in a bid to identify potential sources of cheap starting materials for the synthesis of new drugs. H. pylori strain was a cul...

the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of different levels of citrus limon essential oil on nutrient digestibility, blood and ruminal metabolites in male holstein calves. this study were conducted using four male holstein calves, each fitted with a permanent rumen cannula (average body weight 650±20 kg) that received experimental diets including control with 600, 800 and 1000 mg/d le...

Fruit juices of four species of Citrus genus i.e. C. maxima, C. limon, C. sinensis, C. reticulata were analyzed for their nutritional content (i.e. soluble sugar, total RNA & pentose sugar, free amino acids, soluble protein, total phenolic compounds and vitamin-C) and antioxidant potential. The content of all studied parameters varied from one species to another but no specific trend was observ...

background : essential oils are the volatile fraction of aromatic and medicinal plants created after extraction by steam or water distillation. species of the genus citrus (rutaceae) have been widely used in traditional medicine as volatile oils and are currently the subject of numerous research. citrus essential oil consists of different terpens that have antitumor activities. this study deter...

The aims of this work were principally two-fold: first, to show that cyclic voltammetry is a simple, cheap and practical method for determining antioxidants in citrus fruit juices; second, to evaluate vitamin C in four species of citrus fruits. Two are known world wide, the lemon, Citrus limon (L.) Burm.f., and the lime, Citrus aurantiifolia (Christm.) Swingle, and two are principally but not e...

The aphids, aphid parasitoids, and hyperparasitoids found in citrus orchards, the parasitoids' and hyperparasitoids' seasonal abundance, and the plant-aphid-parasitoid relationships in Hatay, Osmaniye, Adana, and Mersin provinces of the east Mediterranean region of Turkey are presented in the present 2-yr study. Aphidius colemani Viereck, Binodoxys angelicae (Haliday), and Lysiphlebus confusus ...
