BACKGROUND Saharan plants are known by their high content of antioxidant products like phenolic compounds due to the extreme climatic conditions. They constitute the basis of treatments used by local population for various diseases. The purposes of this study were to measure the total phenolic compounds and total fl avonoid compounds, to determine antioxidant capacity, and to evaluate the antib...

Abstract Dorema (Apiaceae) includes 12 species distributed in the Irano-Turanian region. The genus differs from other genera of subfamily Apioideae having paniculate inflorescences with simple umbels. Recently, molecular phylogenetic analyses placed six Dorema, including generitype, Ferula , thus subsuming former into synonymy latter. remaining congeners have not been yet included analyses. Her...

Larvicidal activity of acetone and petroleum ether extracts of four plants Murraya koenigii, Coriandrum sativum, Ferula asafoetida, Trigonella foenum graceum and synthetic larvicides Fenthion and Temephos used alone and in combination was carried out against A. aegypti larvae under laboratory conditions. Optimum values were found out by using different concentrations of each plant (ranged 25 pp...

The article presents the results of mycological studies conducted in 2018 and 2019 on territory Boguty Mountains. samples were collected early spring gorges Big massif. An annotated taxonomic list is provided, which includes 21 species micromycetous fungi fungus-like organisms from 17 genera, 11 families, 6 orders, 5 classes, 2 kingdoms. For 4 fungi, systematic position remains unclear. One myx...

The chloroform extract of Ferula persica var. persica roots was found to inhibit red pigment production of Serratia marcescens. A bioguided fractionation study by preparative thin layer chromatography (PTLC) detected a fraction (Rf = 0.71, petroleum ether/EtOAc, 2:1 v/v), which was effective on depigmentation of Serratia marcescens. Using conventional spectroscopy methods, the active fraction w...
