OBJECTIVE Pinus eldarica (P. eldarica) is one of the most common pines in Iran which has various bioactive constituents and different uses in traditional medicine. Since there is no documented evidence for P. eldarica safety, the acute and sub-acute oral toxicities of hydroalcoholic extract of P. eldarica bark were investigated in male and female Wistar rats in this study. MATERIALS AND METHO...

Background: Diabetes mellitus type 2 with dyslipidemia is a common disease. Previous studies suggest that chemical constituent present in pinus eldarica (P. eldarica) nut posesess antioxidant properties and positively affect glucose metabolism. However blood glucose and cholesterol lowering effects of P. eldarica nut have not been studied so far. Objective: The present study was undertaken to e...

Pinus eldarica Medw. (Iranian pine) is native to Transcaucasian region and has been vastly planted in Iran, Afghanistan, and Pakistan. Various parts of this plant have been widely used in traditional medicine for the treatment of various diseases including infectious conditions (e.g. infectious wounds). In this study we aimed to investigate the antibacterial activity of P. eldarica bark extract...

Recently, development of reliable experimental protocols for synthesis of metal nanoparticles with desired morphologies and sizes has become a major focus of researchers. Green synthesis of metal nanoparticles using organisms has emerged as a nontoxic and ecofriendly method for synthesis of metal nanoparticles. The objectives of this study were production of silver nanoparticles using Pinus eld...

This article provides information about the macrofungus Suillus granulatus (L) Roussel which was new one for South Uzbekistan. The identified found near trees of Pinus eldarica Medw. hymenium layer, basidiosporous basidia spores and form small bodies (subfusiform) in inner part shape a drop.

background: the antioxidant components have been identified in some pine species. antioxidant properties of proantocyanidins reduce free radicals induced by dna fragmentation and lipid proxidation and also proanthocyanidines could curb lipid peroxidation. objective: in this study, we analyzed different parts of pinus eldarica (bark, seed and needle) and assessed their antioxidant contents. meth...
