چکیده

onion (allium cepa) bulb from liliaceae has antioxidant, spasmolytic and antihypertensive activities. the aim of present study was to investigate the antispasmodic effect of onion peel on rat ileum contractility. onion peel powder was extracted by maceration in 70% alcohol for 72 h. a terminal portion of ileum from male wistar rat was dissected and its contractions were recorded isotonically in an organ bath containing tyrode solution (37°c) under 1 g tension. extract cumulative concentrations (0.1, 0.2 and 0.4 mg/ml) reduced the ileum contractions induced by kcl (60 mm) and carbachol (10 ?m) dose-dependently (p<0.0001). the extract antispasmodic effect was not reduced by tissue incubation with propranolol (1 ?m, 30 min), naloxone (1 ?m, 30 min), l-name (100 ?m, 20 min), glibenclamide (10 ?m, 5 min) neither by tetraethylammonium (1 mm, 5 min). in ca2+-free with high k+ (60 mm) tyrode solution, extract reduced the ileum contractions induced by cacl2 dose-dependently (p<0.05, p<0.01). onion peel extract inhibits ileum contractions without involving ?-adrenoceptor, opioid receptor, nitric oxide production, and potassium channels activation. it is suggested that quercetin in onion peel extract induces spasmolytic effect via calcium channels.

Onion (Allium cepa L.) peel extract has anti-platelet effects in rat platelets

The effects of onion peel extract (OPE) in collagen (5 μg/mL)-stimulated washed rat platelet aggregation were investigated. OPE inhibited platelet aggregation via inhibition of aggregation-inducing molecules, intracellular Ca(2+) and thromboxane A2 (TXA2) by blocking cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) and TXA2 synthase (TXAS) activities in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, OPE elevated the formation ...

Effect of sulphur application in onion (Allium cepa L.)

An experiment was conducted to study the effect of sulphur application on growth, yield and quality of onion at Horticulture Farm of Institute of Agriculture, Visva-Bharati, Sriniketan. The treatments consisted of six incremental doses of sulphur application (10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 kg ha-1) and no sulphur application (control, 0 kg S ha-1). Treatments were arranged in Randomized Block Design...

NUTRIENT DIAGNOSIS ( CND ) OF ONION ( Allium cepa L . )

Nutritional constraints often restrict yields of crops in farmers’ fields. Plant nutrient status is currently diagnosed using empirically derived nutrient norms from arbitrarily defined high and low yielding subpopulations above a quantitative yield target. Generic models can assist Compositional Nutrient Diagnosis (CND) in providing a yield cutoff value between high-and lowyielding subpopulati...
