Phenotypic and biochemical profile changes in calendula (Calendula officinalis L.) plants treated with two chemical mutagenesis.
Chemical mutagenesis is an efficient tool used in mutation-breeding programs to improve the vital characters of the floricultural crops. This study aimed to estimate the effects of different concentrations of two chemical mutagens; sodium azide (SA) and diethyl sulfate (DES). The vegetative growth and flowering characteristics in two generations (M1 and M2) of calendula plants were investigated...
متن کاملAngiogenic activity of Calendula officinalis flowers L. in rats.
PURPOSE In this work, angiogenic activity of Calendula officinalis L. (Asteraceae) ethanolic extract and dichloromethane and hexanic fractions were evaluated, considering medicinal properties, especially healing activity, are attributed to this plant. METHODS Models using 36 rats and 90 embryonated eggs were used to evaluate healing and angiogenic activities of extracts and fractions of the p...
متن کاملFood & Function
The chemical composition and bioactive properties of two plants (Calendula officinalis L. and Mentha cervina L.) were studied. Their nutritional value revealed a high content of carbohydrates and low fat levels, and very similar energy values. However, they presented different profiles in phenolic compounds and fatty acids; C. officinalis presented mainly glycosylated flavonols and saturated fa...
متن کاملComponential Profile and Amylase Inhibiting Activity of Phenolic Compounds from Calendula officinalis L. Leaves
An ethanolic extract and its ethyl acetate-soluble fraction from leaves of Calendula officinalis L. (Asteraceae) were found to show an inhibitory effect on amylase. From the crude extract fractions, one new phenolic acid glucoside, 6'-O-vanilloyl-β-D-glucopyranose, was isolated, together with twenty-four known compounds including five phenolic acid glucosides, five phenylpropanoids, five coumar...
متن کاملInvestigation into the biological activities and chemical composition of Calendula officinalis L. growing in Tunisia
Calendula officinalis (Marigold) was characterized in respect to its chemical composition, antioxidant potential and antimicrobial activities. Five compounds were identified and quantified by LC/MS and HPLC in leaves and flowers of aqueous-methanolic extracts. Total flavonoids ranged between 44.91 and 76.44 mg QE/g dry weight in leaf and flower extracts, respectively. Rutin, quercetin-3-O-gluco...
