Assessment Report on Mentha X Piperita L., Folium

In Vitro Antioxidant activity of Mentha pulegium from Saudi Arabia

Mentha pulegium which is locally know as Al-Medina mint, is used in herbal teas or as additives in commercial spice mixtures for many foods to offer aroma and flavor. The objectives of this study were to examine the antioxidant activity and the total phenol and flavonoids contents of Mentha pulegium methanol extract. The In vitro antioxidant activity of Mentha pulegium methanol extract was eval...

Supercritical CO2 extraction of mentha (Mentha piperita L.) at different solvent densities

The chemical composition of mentha essential oil and mentha extracts obtained at different pressures/temperatures by supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) were studied by GC–MS. The menthol content was also determined spectrophotometrically. The predominant compounds in the essential oil and in the CO2 extract obtained at 100 bar were L-menthon and menthole but at higher pressures (from 150 to 4...

Performance of Broilers Supplemented With Peppermint (Mentha piperita L.) Powder

This study was conducted to determine the effects of dietary supplementation of peppermint ( Mentha piperita L.) on the performance of broiler chicks. 500 Ross broiler chicks were divided into 5 treatment groups of 4 replications in a completely randomized design format. The diets were ISO-caloric and ISO-nitrogenous ones and contained 1.5, 3, 4.5, and 6 g/kg of peppermint powder. At start, gro...

Environmental Factors Affecting the Accumulation of Rosmarinic Acid in Spearmint (Mentha spicata L.) and Peppermint (Mentha piperita L.)

Four spearmint, and two peppermint clonal lines, selected for enhanced rosmarinic acid content (50-120 mg g -1 rosmarinic acid DW), where up to 80% of the antioxidant activity was correlated to rosmarinic acid content, were examined to determine the effects of environmental and physiological conditions on the accumulation of rosmarinic acid in leaf tissues. Exposure to a short photoperiod of 12...
