Background Clove oil of Eugenia caryophyllata (Myrtaceae) is a light yellowish fluid obtained from dried flower buds. Clove oil is used traditionally to relieve toothache. Aim The aim of the present work was to study the anti-inflammatory, antinociceptive and antipyretic potential of clove oil in mice. Methods Analgesic activity was examined using acetic-acid-induced abdominal constrictions and...

This study was performed to evaluate the efficacy of injection of essential oil of Eugenia caryophyllata in the kid horn buds, as a new chemical technique for disbudding. Five-day-old healthy goat kids from both sexes (n = 16) were divided randomly into 4 equal groups. In groups 1, 2 and 3, 0.2 mL of clove essence and in group 4 (control) 0.2 mL of normal saline was injected into the l...

It is a remarkably versatile molecule incorporated as a functional ingredient in numerous products and has found application in the pharmaceutical, agricultural, fragrance, flavour, cosmetic and various other industries. Its va...

The aims of the study were to determine the in vitro cytotoxicity and anti-inflammatory activities of common edible herbs and spices on cultured human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs). Piper betle L. (betel leaf), P.sarmentosum Roxb. (wild betel / kadok leaf), P.nigrum L. (black pepper seed), Eugenia caryophyllata L. (clove bud) and Cinnamomum zeylanicum Blume (cinnamon bark). Essential oils were ex...

This paper is aimed at evaluating the antioxidant properties of Eugenia Caryophyllata (Syzygium aromaticum), 100% aqueous and 20:80% (water alcohol) for hydroethanolic hydromethanolic extracts were prepared as working solutions studies. About 5 different examinations Syzygium aromaticum (Clove) carried out which include total phenolic content, assay, free radical’s DPPH scavenging activity, hyd...

Background: Clove (Eugenia caryophyllata Thunberg) and lime (Citrus aurantifolia) are medicinal plants traditionally used to treat various diseases such as gastritis. Some studies reported that cloves leaf extract showed a gastroprotective effect by decreasing the gastric acid secretion increasing mucus. Aim: This study aims investigate anti-gastritis activity of combination ethanolic in alcoho...
