There are about 484 species of Hypericum in the Guttiferae family, which includes Hypericoideae. In Iran, this genus mainly found north, northwest, and center country, they key contributors to floral elements Hyrcanian mountains, Irano-Turanian, Mediterranean regions (such as Zagros). Medicinal, commercial, horticultural values associated with these plants.The genetic diversity was assessed thr...

The wound healing potential of the aerial parts Hypericum triquetrifolium Turra (Hypericaceae) was evaluated using an in vivo excision model rats. Adult male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly assigned into seven groups; blank vehicles (olive oil and petroleum jelly), negative control, treatments [H. ethanolic extract jelly (5% 10%) H. olive macerate (100 200 g/L)], positive control (MEBO). Trea...

The genus Hypericum is one of the most important medicinal plants that contain 17 species in Iran, three of them are endemics. This paper reports the essential oil composition of eight Hypericum species from Iran. The essential oil analysis of a number of the studied plants has already been reported but their report from Iran may be valuable for scientists.  Samples collected from different pla...

In the present study, we investigated the variation in the content of naphthodianthrones hypericin and pseudohypericin, phloroglucinol derivatives hyperforin and adhyperforin, the phenolic acids as chlorogenic acid, neochlorogenic acid, 2,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid, and the flavonols, namely, hyperoside, isoquercitrin, quercitrin, quercetin, avicularin, rutin, (+)-catechin and (-)-epicatechin, and...

This study examined five species of the Lamiaceae family, Origanum vulgare L., dictamnus majorana Mentha spicata L. and Lavandula angustifolia one Hypericaceae Hypericum perforatum for their potential to enhance health wellbeing or prevent diseases. An analysis secondary metabolites was performed by mass spectrometry HPLC coupled with diode array detection determine phenolic compounds included ...
