متن کاملEffect of Low Dose Gamma Irradiation on Some Phytochemicals and Scavenger Ability of in Vitro Culantro (Eryngium foetidum L.) Plantlets
This research work aimed to enhance the concentration of some bioactive compounds in culantro (Eryngium foetidum L.) plantlets through gamma irradiation (0.0, 10.0, 20.0 and 40.0 Gy range) treatments. Gamma irradiation at 40.0 Gy significantly stimulated total phenolic, flavonoids, tannin and saponin contents. The effect of irradiation on antioxidant properties of culantro extracts was investig...
