Essential Oils Composition, Anticholinesterase and Antioxidant Activities of Pistacia atlantica Desf
نویسندگان
چکیده
Chemical composition and in vitro antioxidant and anticholinesterase activities of essential oils obtained from leaves and flowers of Pistacia atlantica were studied. GC/GC-MS analyses of the essential oils afforded twenty-two compounds from flower oil and thirty from leaf oil. The antioxidant activity of the essential oils was determined using -carotene-linoleic acid, DPPH • and ABTS • -scavenging effects. The essential oils exhibited a good antioxidant activity and inhibited the activity of acetyland butyrylcholinesterase.
