Background and objectives: Hippophae rhamnoides L. known as sea buckthorn is a deciduous medicinal shrub belonging to Elaeagnaceae family. In this study, the most important chemical constituents of sea buckthornwere evaluated in wild populations of central Alborz Mountains in Iran during the growth season of 2014 and 2015. Methods: Phy...

The aim of this study was to assess the impact of forest age and season on the soil microbial community and enzyme activities in sea-buckthorn plantation system and to determine the relative contributions to soil microbial properties. Soil sampling was carried out in the dry season (April) and wet season (September) in four areas, including: abandoned farmland (NH), an 8-year- old plantation (y...

The raw cutin (i.e., extractive-free isolated cuticular membrane) fraction from Finnish berries, sea buckthorn (Hippophaë rhamnoides), black currant (Ribes nigrum), cranberry (Vaccinium oxycoccos), lingonberry (Vaccinium vitis-idaea), and bilberry (Vaccinium myrtillus), was depolymerized by NaOMe-catalyzed methanolysis. The composition of cutin monomers was determined by GC-(EI)MS analysis eith...

Sea buckthorn ( Hippophae rhamnoides L.) has multifarious medicinal properties including immunoregulatory effect. The total flavonoids of Hippophae rhamnoides L. (TFH) are the main active components isolated from berries of sea buckthorn. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of TFH on the cytotoxicity of NK92-MI cells and its possible mechanisms. NK92-MI cells were treated with TFH...

Cyanocobalamin is the most widespread form of vitamin B12, which sufficient for humans. Vitamin B12 mainly found in animal products. However, supplementation does not have to be necessary because certain amounts are present plant Previous studies showed significant contents cyanocobalamin sea buckthorn and sauerkraut. In this study, selected products such as sea-buckthorn jam fermented (obtaine...

Fast-growing European buckthorn (Rhamnus cathartica) shrubs are aggressively invading woodlands in eastern and midwestern North America. Buckthorn casts dense shade, alters soil conditions, and may be allelopathic. We used greenhouse and field experiments to investigate aboveand belowground effects of Rhamnus on four herbaceous species native to southern Wisconsin. In the greenhouse, we assesse...

we investigated the response of sea buckthorn to drought in a nursery experiment that has been studied for the first time in the world for iranian sea buckthorn. biomass and physiological differences in response to drought were compared between four elaeagnus rhamnoides seedlings inhabited in qazvin province origin seeds of iran. the experimental design included four water regimes including 2, ...
