Abstract Bio‐inspired techniques are used for synthesis in terms of application, green chemical research, facile, and eco‐friendly chemistry study silver nanostructures utilizing plant extracts as natural reducing/stabilization solid adjuvants without the use toxic damaging reagents. The present investigates biosynthesis Ag nanoparticles via mediation methanolic extract Heracleum persicum seeds, any stabilizer or surfactant. These were identified ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy, field...
Phytochemical analysis of the Ferulago trifida Boiss. from Apiaceae family led to isolation and identification suberosin (1), isoimperatorin (2), prantschimgin (3), oxypeucedanin (4), methanolate (5), suberenol (6), 6-hydroxymethylherniarin (7), hydrate (8), ulopterol (9), bergapten (10), xanthotoxin (11), imperatorin (12) grandivittin (13) chloroform extracts roots (1-9) fruits (1, 2, 8, 10-13) this species. Oxypeucedanin demonstrated a potent antioxidant power with 268.2 ± 5.4 251.2 6.2...
To investigate the effect of 6-gingerol, active component Zingiber officinale (Shēngjiāng), on sepsis-induced inflammation, oxidative injury, and organ damage in vivo. 6-gingerol was extracted from ginger, its identity confirmed with 1H NMR, 13C TLC. Sepsis induced via cecal ligation puncture (CLP) all groups except for sham. Thirty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into sham, CLP alone, ginger extract, hydrocortisone, solvent. Treatments administered intraperitoneally a dose 25 mg/kg....
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by cholinergic dysfunction, neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, and memory impairment. The Salvia genus has been used since ancient times for its anti-inflammatory neuroprotective properties. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of aristata hydroalcoholic extract (SAHE) dichloromethane (SADE) on various aspects AD. Column chromatography was utilized in phytochemical analysis isolate purify...
From the methanolic extract of aerial parts Ajuga chamaepitys (L.) Schreb., Lamiaceae, one Iranian medicinal plants, phenylethanoid glycoside, acteoside, and two flavone glycosides, chrysoeriol 7-O-glucopyranoside (3'-methoxy-luteolin 7-O-glucopyranoside) apigenin 7-O-rhamnopyranoside, were isolated by a combination solid-phase extraction (SPE) preparative reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (prep-RP-HPLC) methods. Structures compounds elucidated spectroscopic means. The...
As a result of GC and GC-MS analysis the essential oils from different parts Ferulago trifida Boiss., total thirty-three compounds were identified in flowers (Fl), stems (S), leaves (L) fruits (Fr) oils, which (E)-β-ocimene (Fl: 37.3, S: 20.7, L: 25.7, Fr: 30.5%), α-pinene 16.3, 22.6, 19.6, 18.0%) bornyl acetate 9.4, 8.5, 16.7, 11.0%) main compounds. Among thrity-eight roots oil, suberosin (20.7%), β-barbatene (6.6%) cuparene (6.1%) All exhibited weak DPPH free radical scavenging activity...
In the present study, we analyzed anti-proliferative and apoptosis induction activity of five phenolic compounds: echisoside, pleoside, chlorogenic acid, 4,5-Di-O-caffeoylquinic cynarin on AGS (adenocarcinoma gastric) cell line.These compounds were isolated from methanol extract Dorema glabrum root. An MTT assay was conducted to evaluate inhibitory effect cancer cells. EB/AO staining done assess mode death morphological changes cells' nuclei. Cell cycle distribution cells by flow cytometry,...
Background: Stachys lavandulifolia Vahl is a herbaceous plant distributed in the west and south western Asia. Despite of wide medicinal uses, there are some reports on toxicity potential this plant. In present study we attempted to evaluate characterize cytotoxic principles S. lavandulifolia. Methods: Brine shrimp lethality test (BSLT) was used general extracts essential oil obtained from aerial parts Phytochemical constituents active extract were investigated using various chromatographic...
AbstractAs a result of GC/MS and GC/FID analysis the volatile fractions obtained from leaves, bark, fruits Caucasian wingnut (Pterocarya fraxinifolia L.), 22, 31, 33 compounds were identified in which aromadendrene (26.3%), biotol (37.8%), caryophyllene (15.2%) main constituents these oils, respectively. Antioxidant activities evaluated using DPPH β-carotene/linoleic acid assays total phenolis contents extracts measured Folin–Ciocalteu method. Among extracts, bark extract had highest amount...
Background:Phlomis olivieri Benth. and Phlomis persica Boiss. (Lamiaceae) are two medicinal species endemic to Iran.
