this study aimed to determine biological activity and phytochemical study of scutellaria platystegia (family labiatae). methanolic (meoh) extract of aerial parts of s. platystegia and spe fractions of methanolic extract (specially 20% and 40% methanolic fractions), growing in east-azarbaijan province of iran were found to have radical scavenging activity by dpph (2, 2-diphenyl -1- pycryl hydraz...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the baical skullcap root (Scutellaria baicalensis radix) on the performance, chemical composition of the muscles and sensory characteristics of the meat of broiler chickens. 120 one-day old Hubbard Hi-Y broiler hybrids were assigned to four groups of 30 each and fed either a basal diet (control) or a basal diet supplemented with 0.5%, 1.0% or ...

ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Five herbs, Curcuma longa L. (CL), Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi (SBC), Scutellaria barbata D. Don (SBB), Hedyotis diffusa Willd. (HD) and Solanum nigrum L. (SN), are often prescribed in the polyherbal formulas for cancer treatment by traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) practitioners. The purpose of the present study was to identify important anticancer herbs used...

Two new phenols, 2(S)-2',7-dihydroxy-5,8-dimethoxyflavanone and (S)-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-6-methyl-2,3-dihydro-4H-pyran-4-one, were isolated from the ethanol extract of Scutellaria barbata. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analysis.

The hydro-distilled essential oil from dried aerial parts of one of widespread Iranian skullcaps, Scutellaria pinnatifida A. Hamilt. sap. alpina (Bornm.) Rech. grown in Khorassan province was analyzed by GC and GC/MS. Thirty components were characterized ing 93.8% of the total components detected. The major components of the oil were germacrene-D (39.7%) and beta-caryophyllene (15.0%).
