Myrtle (Myrtus communis L.) is an aromatic and medicinal plant spreading in the Mediterranean area. The main uses of myrtle plants are liqueur essential oil production with several biological properties. A large part properties these products due to phenolic compounds. Twenty-two cultivars originating from areas Sardinia Island cultivated at same site were analysed for compounds determination. ...

C. cyminum (cumin) and M. communis (myrtle) comprise many biologically active molecules. In this study, cumin seed myrtle leaves were mixed then hydrodistilled analyzed by GC-MS. The main components of the essential oil cuminal (50.71%), 1,8 cineole (8.30%), O-cymene (7.88%), β-pinene (7.62%), α-pinene (7.16%), γ-terpinene (6.09%) α-terpinolene (2.19%). antifungal activity against albicans, par...

Plants used for traditional medicine contain a wide range of substances that can be used to treat various diseases such as infectious diseases. The present study was designed to evaluate the antileishmanial effects of the essential oil and methanolic extract of Myrtus communis against Leishmania tropica on an in vitro model. Antileishmanial effects of essential oil and methanolic extract of M. ...

background & aim: myrtle (myrtus communis l.), is an important medicinal plant that is used for pharmacological uses and conservation of environments (for example preventing the soil erosion) regards to its specific condition habitat.experimental: in this research, phytochemical variations of the essential oils from different populations of myrtle collected from fars (saydan, cheshme-ali, a...

essential oil extracted from the leaves of myrtle, myrtus communis l. (myrtaceae)was tested in vitro for volatile toxicity against two stored-product insects (tribolium confusum and callosobruchus maculatus). the chemical composition of the plant oil was examined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (gc-ms). the major oil components were α-pinene (10.4%), α- terpineol (10.1%), linalool (9.0%...

Myrtus communis L. young and mature Leaves were collected in Fars (the southern province of Iran). The aim of this research was to investigate essential oil content and composition of myrtle leaves which were at different ontogeny stages. Essential oil was extracted by hydrodistillation method using Clevenger apparatus, the oils were analyzed by GC–MS. Highest content of essential oil were reco...

The present study describes DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity and antimutagenic properties of the essential oil of myrtle (Myrtus communis L.). Plant samples were collected from the two distant localities (southernmost and northern point) of the Montenegro coastline. Chemical profiles of the two samples were evaluated by GC-MS. In both of the samples monoterpenes ...

Experimental: In this research, phytochemical variations of the essential oils from different populations of myrtle collected from Fars (Saydan, Cheshme-Ali, and ...

Myrtle plant was washed, dried, and powdered after harvesting to produce a fine powder that used in water treatment. created an alcoholic extract from the myrtle using ethanol, which then analyzed GC-Mass, Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy identify active components. Zinc nanoparticles were extract. We FTIR, UV-Vis, SEM, EDX, TEM characterize zinc nanopar...
