Salinity is an abiotic stressor that greatly influences crop growth and yield. Scientists are always exploring diverse methods to combat salinity depression. Here, we conducted a greenhouse experiment study the effects of NaCl (0, 50, 100 mM) under foliar spray with zinc-oxide, nano iron-chelate, magnetized-Fe, graphene-oxide on tarragon. The results revealed treatment graphene showed highest K...

Background and purpose: The status of medicinal plants in Iranian traditional medicine and rich existence of herbal sources, on one hand, and current problems in curing infections, on the other hand, are the factors to study medicinal plants more accurately. Tarragon (Artemisia dracunculus L.) is a herbaceous plant from Asteraceae family, available in planted and farming forms in Iran. This stu...

Epilepsy is one of the most serious neurological disorders affecting about 0.5-1% of the world population. There is no definite radical therapy against epilepsy; however, actual therapy includes simple inhibition of epileptic activity. Apart from effective drugs against epilepsy, plant extracts as well as essential oils, which have been used for generations by humans to treat the disease, are c...

Background: Coagulation activity of platelets plays an important role in thrombosis formation, Atherosclerotic plaque establishment and cardiovascular disorders. ASA are using as an anti platelet activity drug for patients with Coronary Artery Disease (CAD). Using of plant extraction as a complementary medicine for these patients (CAD) is mostly recommended by traditional medicine specialist. ...

a comparative study of ultrasound-assisted extraction (uae) and hydro-distillation was performed for fast extraction of estragole from tarragon (artemisia dracunculus l.) dried leaves. several influential parameters of the uae procedure in the extraction of estragole (type of solvent, extraction cycles, solvent to material ratio, irradiation time and particle size) were investigated and optimiz...

objective: some evidence suggests that chronic uptake of estragole and methyl-eugenol, found in the essential oil of artemisia dracunculus (tarragon), may be associated with an increased risk of hepato-carcinogenicity. the present study was conducted to investigate the immumodulatory and anti-inflammatory potentials of estragole and methyl-eugenol free extract of tarragon. materials and methods...

Platelet hyperactivity and platelet interaction with endothelial cells contribute to the development and progression of many cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis and thrombosis. The impact of platelet activity with different pharmacological agents, such as acetylsalicylic acid and coumarin derivatives, has been shown to be effective in the prevention of cardiovascular disease. Artemi...
