Callus Induction and Application of Methyle Jasmonate to Increase Dopamine in Portulaca oleracea L.

Purslane (Portulaca oleracea L.) contains valuable ingredients such as dopamine, noradrinalin and omega-3. The increase of secondary metabolites by elicitors is widely used in tissue culture of medicinal plants. The aim of this study was to assess effect of plant growth regulators on callus induction and amount of dopamine in callus tissue of purslane under the influence of methyl jasmonate as ...

Vegetative Reproduction Potential of Common Purslane (Portulaca oleracea)

Antibacterial Attributes of Apigenin, Isolated from Portulaca oleracea L.

The flavonoid apigenin was isolated from aerial part of P. oleracea L. The dried sample of plant was powdered and subjected to soxhlet extractor by adding 80 mL of ethanol : water (70 : 30). The extract was centrifuged at 11000 rpm for 30 min; supernatant was taken for further use. The fraction was concentrated and subjected to PTLC. The R f value of isolated apigenin was calculated (0.82). Pur...
