In the present study Willbutrin (bupropion hydrochloride) was employed to induce mutagenic/ carcinogenic features in mice, i.e. undesirable cell division and DNA damage. The repair actions of fennel dry seeds and its extracted bioactive substance anethole supplied to Willbutrin-treatedmice in a dietary regime were investigated. Male Swiss albino mice (25-30gm) orally received Willbutrin dose (0...

The importance of insects for global food crop production is starting to be well-known but the level dependence on less referenced, especially some aromatic crops. Fennel ( Foeniculum vulgare, Mill.) an mass-flowering cultivated in south France its essential oil that contains anethole. This compound and economical interest because anise flavour, which used elaborate drinks. Here, we have charac...

Nagilactone E, an antifungal agent derived from the root bark of Podocarpus nagi, inhibits 1,3-β glucan synthesis; however, its inhibitory activity is weak. Anethole, principal component anise oil, enhances nagilactone E. We aimed to determine combinatorial effect and underlying mechanisms action E anethole against budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Analyses using gene-deficient strains sh...

Introduction: The aim of this research was to determine the anxiolytic and antidepressant-like effects essential oils from Foeniculum vulgare aerial parts seeds. Methods: were extracted by hydro-distillation using a modified Clevenger-type apparatus chemical composition performed Gas chromatography with flame-ionization detection (GC-FID) chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC–MS). Furthermore, a...

Fungal hastalık etmeni Pestalotiopsis funerea, kozalaklı çam ağaçlarında sürgün uç yanıklığı olarak bilinen hastalığa neden olur. Bu çalışmada, farklı oranlarda harmanlanmış rezene (Foeniculum vulgare Mill.) ve defne (Laurus nobilis L.) uçucu yağ karışımlarının kimyasal bileşimleri P. funerea’ya karşı antifungal etkileri in vitro koşullarda araştırılmıştır. Uçucu yağların bileşimleri, GC-MS ana...

Background & Aim: Increasing of drug resistances and more attention to the hazards of side effects of synthetic drugs has caused extensive researches on medicinal plant resources. The aim of this study was to determination of the chemical composition of native Silybum marianum and Foeniculum vulgare extractions in Ardabil, Iran; and investigation of their anti...
