Cancer is the deadliest health problem after cardiovascular system diseases. New strategies have been developed over years in fight against cancer. Silver nanoparticles are one of these approaches. In this study, it was aimed to synthesize silver with green approach using Elaeagnus angostifolia aqueous extract and investigate cytotoxic effects nanoparticles. characterized by analytical methods ...

Deyeuxia angustifolia (Komarov) Y. L Chang is an herb species originating from the birch forests in the Changbai Mountain. Recently, this species has been found encroaching into large areas in the western slopes of the alpine tundra in the Changbai Mountain, threatening the tundra ecosystem. In this study, we systematically assessed the response of the rhizosphere soil microbial to D. angustifo...

None of the known native actinorhizal species in Turkey, Alnus glutinosa and A. orientalis (Betulaceae), Datisca cannabina (Datiscaceae), Elaeagnus angustifolia Hippophae rhamnoides (Elaeagnaceae), widely-planted exotic Casuarina cunninghamiana (Casuarinaceae), have confirmed records actinorhizae Turkey. This study determined capacity representative plants Turkey to form nodules, cluster roots ...

Increasing salinization threatens the normal growth of halophytes in saline habitats, especially at seedling stage. Soil beneficial microorganisms have potential to promote salt tolerance halophytes, but less attention has been paid various responses between different with microbial inoculations. Here we performed pot experiments assess Nitraria tangutorum Bobr. and Elaeagnus angustifolia Linn....

The physicochemical properties, fatty acid profiles, content of tocopherol and sterol of the oils extracted from the nuts of Elaeagnus mollis Diels grown in different regions of China were studied in this work. The results indicated that the Elaeagnus mollis Diels nut oils contained about 0.2% sterols and the tocopherol contents were in the range of 119.6-128.6mg/100g. The nut oils were all ric...

The insecticidal effects of 20 essential oils derived from herbs, were tested against the housefly species Musca domestica L. using a susceptibility test. Each was applied in ethyl alcohol at concentrations of 1, 5 and 10% (v/v). Ten percent concentrations of Cymbopogon citratus (lemongrass), Mentha piperita (peppermint) and Lavandula angustifolia (lavender) oils were the most effective, showin...
