background: many efforts have been done to find effective agents against resistant pathogens. cuminum cyminum l. (cumin) is an aromatic plant within the apiaceae family. it has a variety of purposes and demonstrates antimicrobial and antioxidant properties. this study evaluated the activity of c. cyminum extract and essential oil against bacterial isolates which cause urinary tract infection, i...

the essential oil from the seeds of cuminum cyminum l. was isolated by hydrodistillation method and the chemical composition was determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (gc/ms). the yield of the oil was found to be 3.0% (on dry weight basis). a total of twenty six components, representing 96.7% of the oil were identified. cuminaldehyde (49.4%), p-cymene (17.4%), b-pinene (6.3%), a-ter...

This study aimed to investigate the antibacterial and antibiofilm activities of essential oils Cuminum cyminum (CEO) Foeniculum vulgare (FEO) on clinically isolated Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) Prevotella intermedia intermedia). Subgingival plaque samples were collected from periodontal pockets (≥6 mm) patients with generalized severe periodontitis. Microbiological molecular tests p...

This study was aimed to investigate the effects of Cuminum cyminum seed aqueous extract on function and histological structure rat kidney treated with dibutyl phthalate (DBP). Eighteen albino rats weighing 190-240g aged 10-12 weeks were used for this which went 28 days. The divided into three groups (each six animals): 1st group: control given food tap water, 2nd group DBP (420mg/Kg. B.W.) wate...
