PURPOSE Carrying out the chemical composition and antiproliferative effects against cancer cells from different biological parts of Artemisia herba alba. METHODS Essential oils were studied by gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and their antitumoral activity was tested against P815 mastocytoma and BSR kidney carcinoma cell lines; also, in order to evaluate the effect on n...

Aim This study investigated the antifungal properties of aqueous extracts obtained from indigenous plants that grow spontaneously in the Northern Sahara of Algeria. The activities of these plants in controlling two fungal species that belong to Fusarium genus were evaluated in an in vitro assay. Materials and Methods Fresh aerial parts of four plant species (Artemisia herba alba, Cotula ciner...

Plant extracts and essential oils are promising new sources of non-toxic alternatives to chemicals substances. They used for their antimicrobial properties against plant diseases fungal origin, bacterial, those virus origin. This study was carried out the antifungal activity Artemisia herba-alba, Foeniculum vulgare Citrus sinensis Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. albedinis. Essential oil extracted by ...

The species of Asteraceae were used traditionally in treatment of inflammatory disorders. The present study aimed to assess the anti-inflammatory effect of methanolic extract of aerial parts of Rhanterium epapposum Oliv. (R.epapposum), Achillea fragrantissima (Forssk.) Sch.Bip (A. fragrantissima), Artemisia herba-alba Asso. (A.herba-alba), Echinops spinosus L. (E. spinosus) and Echinops hussoni...

Essential oils are natural antimicrobials that have the potential to provide a safer alternative to synthetic antimicrobials currently used in the food industry. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of essential oils from white wormwood, rose-scented geranium and bay laurel against Salmonella typhimurium and Escherichia coli O157:H7 on fr...

In this modest work, a local biopolymer (CHA), biodegradable, non-toxic, and soluble in acidic media, was extracted from the plant Artemisia herba-alba located eastern region of Morocco, characterized by FT-IR, order to valorize it as corrosion inhibitor mild steel 1 M HCl medium. The electrochemical tests show that extract is an excellent protective agent, reaching maximum value 96.17% at conc...

Artemisinin (quinghaosu) is a natural compound, isolated from Artemisia annua L. (Compositae), of current interest in treatment of drug-resistant malaria. Aim of the current study was to hit upon novel artemisinin sources as alternative to A. annua. Therefore, ten species of the genus Artemisia (A. santonicum L., A. taurica Willd., A. spicigera K. Koch, A. herba-alba Asso, A. haussknechtii Bois...
