OBJECTIVES Annual incidence of cutaneous leishmaniasis is increasingly growing and development of the alternative drugs against it is a major concern. Artemisia genus is a traditional medicinal plant in Iran. The aim of this study was to examine the leishmanicidal activity of various Iranian Artemisia species extracts. MATERIALS AND METHODS Different extracts were gathered from eleven Iranian...

OBJECTIVE To make an useful identification method for the molecule of DNA on 3 herbs of Artemisia genus and compare the differences of the genes of Korean and Chinese species of Artemisia. METHODS Sequence of 3 herbs (Artemisia sacrorum Ledeb., Artemisia iwayomogi Kitam. and Artemisia capillaris Thunb.) was determined by PCR sequence system. DNA was extracted from rDNA/ITS (internal transcrib...

BACKGROUND Artemisia frigida Willd. is an important Mongolian traditional medicinal plant with pharmacological functions of stanch and detumescence. However, there is little sequence and genomic information available for Artemisia frigida, which makes phylogenetic identification, evolutionary studies, and genetic improvement of its value very difficult. We report the complete chloroplast genome...

The aromatic compounds of Artemisia annua were extracted by supercritical carbon dioxide. Supercritical carbon dioxide extraction of volatile flavor compounds from Artemisia annua was performed at pressure 150bar and temperature 40oC. The flow rate of CO2 was 20 g/min and the flow rate of ethanol as an entrainer was 5% of CO2 used. The extraction time was 1 h. The trapped sample by cold trap 1 ...

Introduction The role of long-distance transported (LDT) Ambrosia pollen in inducing new sensitization and affecting sensitization rates in Artemisia-sensitized patients is unclear. Aim The aim of this study was to estimate the degree of cross-sensitization to Ambrosia/Artemisia allergens in citizens of Poznan (Western Poland). This area is covered by extensive Artemisia populations but does ...
