Essential oil from aerial parts of Artemisia vulgaris L., was obtained by hydro-distillation to produce oil in the yield of 0.25% (w/w). The oil was analyzed by capillary gas chromatography, using mass spectrometric detection. The amount of the samples injected by nano scale included were 1.0 nL (diluted 1.0 μL of sample in 1000 ml of n-pentane, v/v). Twenty three bioactive and flavour molecule...

In this study Artemisia amygdalina a critically endangered medicinal plant endemic to Kashmir Himalayas was grown under in vitro conditions. ISSR markers were used to study the somaclonal variation at the genetic level. Two ISSR-primers (CAC)3 GC and (ACTG)5 were used, two additional DNA bands (0.15kb and 0.2kb) were observed respectively in tissue cultured Artemisia amygdalina. Direct regenera...

Small mammal communities living in sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) may be sensitive to habitat isolation and invasion by exotic grass species. Yet there have been no spatially explicit models to improve our understanding of landscape-scale factors determining small mammal occurrence or abundance. We live-trapped small mammals at 186 locations in the Wyoming Basin Ecoregional Assessment area to devel...

A 29-year-old female, an aesthetician, developed occupational allergic contact dermatitis caused by extracts of crude drugs. The results of 48-hour closed patch testing showed positive reactions to the moisturizing cream and oil that she used in her work. This cream and oil included Scutellraria Baicalensis, mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris), and Artemisia capillaris,Gardenia. The results of patch t...

the essential oils of the aerial parts of three different artemisia species (a.scoparia, a. diffusa, a. turanica ) growing wildly in the northeast of iran were analyzed by gc-ms. twenty-two, twenty-six, and thirteen components were identified in the essential oils of these plants, respectively. the major constituents of the oil ofa. scoparia were b-pinene (16.10%), carvacrol (13.81%), limonene ...

The aerial parts of Artemisia chamaemelifolia Vill. afforded, in addition to five known sesquiterpene acids, a new 5-epi-cantabrenolic acid (6).
