Coltsfoot (<em>Tussilago farfara</em> L.) is a common species, widely used in European and Chinese traditional medicine for the treatment of respiratory diseases. However, raw material from this plant contains hepatotoxic pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs). The aim study was to determine variability level PAs (senkirkine senecionine) leaves coltsfoot originated natural populations Poland. In phytochemical analysis, 20 samples <em>T. were used. This obtained Garden Medicinal...
Sixty dairy goats of the Polish white improved breed were randomly assigned to five feeding groups twelve animals each. The received a supplement containing seven herbs at 20 or 40 g/animal/day (experimental 1 and 2) nine 3 4)m, along with pelleted concentrate feed. Group 5 (the control group) feed without any herbal supplements. A significant effect additive on lactic acid bacteria (LAB) count was observed (p < 0.001). highest number density LAB found in receiving g/animal per day 0.05)....
Hemp fiber variety, Bialobrzeskie, contains phenolic acids in its chemical composition giving it inherent antioxidant and antibacterial activity. The use of this raw material fabric manufacture allows the creation functional clothing with a positive effect on human skin. aim study was to develop biologically active made pure industrial hemp materials, where cannabidiol (CBD) extract applied surface strengthened bioactivity. design technology focused keeping properties steady level avoiding...
The aim of this study was to assess the activity extracts from Platycodon grandiflorum A. DC (PG) in a model chronic bronchitis rats. research carried out on three water extracts: E1 – roots field cultivated PG; E2 biotransformed E3 callus PG. differed saponins and inulin levels—the highest measured lowest E1. Identification secondary metabolites performed using two complementary LC-MS systems. Chronic induced by sodium metabisulfite (a source SO2). Animals were treated with for weeks (100...
