The compostion of the oils from flower and leaf of Achillea mellifolium L. subsp. mellifolium were collected during the flowering priod from Lar area to Damavand montain, altitude 3400 m in July 2003. The essential oils obtained by different methods of distillation (steam distillation and hydro-distillation), the percentage of oils for flower and leaf by steam distillation were 0.2 and 0.05% an...

Eryngium caucasicum Trautv. (Apiaceae) is a perennial herbaceous plant with about one meter height, an endemic species that has been distributed in the northern parts of Iran. The plant leaves are normally used in medicine and food industries in Iran.The plant has several medicinal properties including enforcing generative power, diuretic, lenitive and appetizer. In this research differents par...

Background: The chemical composition and bioactivities of essential oils (EOs) of fingered citron (Citrus medica L. var. sarcodactylis (Noot.) Swingle) are considerably sensitive and lapsible during high-temperature processing of traditional separating techniques. In the present research, vacuum distillation and ultrafiltration were utilized in order to process the concentrated juice from finge...

Problem statement: We have recently introduced several important improvements in the measurement of distillation curves for complex fluids. The modifications include a compositionexplicit data channel for each distillate fraction and temperature measurements that are true thermodynamic state points that can be modeled with an equation of state. The composition-explicit information is achieved w...

Garlic, Alliumsativum, is broadly used around the world for its numerous culinary and medicinal uses. Wild garlic, Allium vineale, has been used as a substitute for garlic, both in food as well as in herbal medicine. The present study investigated the chemical compositions of A. sativum and A. vineale essential oils. The essential oils from the bulbs of A. sativum, cultivated in Spain, were obt...

Snu-Yao Tsai et al., (2011) isolated the essential oils from the dried rhizomes of Curcuma aromatica salisb, Curcuma longa and Curcuma sichuanensis using simultaneous steam distillation and solvent extraction apparatus. Antioxidant studies were also carried out for these essential oils. Effectiveness for scavenging 1,1diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radicals was found to be less in Curcuma aromatica ...

The active medicinal constituents in Hypericum perforatum, used to treat depression and skin irritation, include flavonoids and xanthones. The carbon skeletons of these compounds are formed by chalcone synthase (CHS) and benzophenone synthase (BPS), respectively. Polyclonal antisera were raised against the polyketide synthases from Hypericum androsaemum and their IgG fractions were isolated. Im...
