Silver nanoparticles display unique physical and biological properties which have attracted intensive research interest because of their important medical applications. In this study silver nanoparticles (Ab.Ag-NPs) were synthesized for biomedical applications using a completely green biosynthetic method using Achillea biebersteinii flowers extract. The structure and properties of Ab.Ag-NPs wer...

Abstract Background Tripleurospermum disciforme (C.A.Mey.) Sch.Bip., Tanacetum parthenium (L.) and Achillea biebersteinii Afan. are the most important species of Asteraceae family that used in traditional medicine as antiseptics, analgesics, anti-ulcers. This study aimed to evaluate compare yield, chemical profile, antibacterial antifungal properties essential oils these three for first time. F...

Fifteen yarrow populations from different species Achillea millefolium L., A. biebersteinii L. and A. nobilis, from different geographical areas of Iran were studied using 24 morphological traits and peroxidase profiles. Comparison of mean values of different phenotypic traits show A. millefolium and A. biebersteinii L. had higher plant height and crown diameter; however, A. nobilis had higher ...

background and aims: neurons are injured under physical, chemical and pathological conditions. the effect of peripheral nervous system injuries may return as retrograde to the cell body of neurons in central nervous system resulting in brain and spinal cord degeneration. because of high content of camphor and borneol, achillea biebersteinii from asteracea family may be effective in prevention t...

Sixteen methanolic extracts obtained from thirteen plant species, selected either from ethnobotanical or chemotaxonomical data, were screened for their antileishmanial activity against Leishmania amazonensis. The cytotoxic activity against normal peritoneal macrophages from normal BALB/c mice was also determined. Eight extracts had IC50 values ranging from <12.5 to 37.8 µg/mL against promastigo...

Achillea biebersteinii (A. biebersteinii), one of the species, has been proven to have positive effects in terms pharmaceuticals thanks components it contains. Our study was designed investigate quenching activity A. on total phenolic component, flavonoid component and DPPH radical. The amounts ethanol water extract plant were calculated be equivalent quercetin, phenol gallic acid. radical inve...
