The study investigates the therapeutic potential of Citrus aurantium var. amara essential oil extracted from blossoms bitter orange plant by examining its chemical composition, thermal stability, and potency against infectious disease-causing pathogens. Initially, volatile components were evaluated obtaining a chromatographic fingerprint using HPTLC FTIR spectrum identification. Furthermore, pr...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness combined pulsed electric fields (PEF) and antimicrobial packaging treatment in maintaining quality stability orange juice stored at 10 °C. Orange treated by PEF glass jars with caps coated µL carvacrol essential oil (AP). Microbial reductions physiochemical properties samples were determined after treatments during storage subjected...

minimum inhibitory concentrations (mic) of some essential oils and citric acid were determined against two micro-organisms associated with spoilage of orange juice (saccharomyces cervisiae and leuconostoc mesenteroids) and against four unidentified microorganisms isolated from citrus surface and spoiled orange juice. mic for limonene were obtained less than 5% w/v aqueous against saccharomyces ...

Background There is limited study and a lack of systematic review in the field of aromatherapy with orange, and storytelling and their positive effects as a safe, simple and low-cost. The present study is aimed to provide a comprehensive review of the alleviating effects of aromatherapy with orange an...

Spectral sensitivities of photoreceptors in the turtle (Geoclemys) retina were studied by intracellular recording, and each cell was filled with Lucifer yellow (LY). Photoreceptors were classified into seven morphological types: rod, four types of single cones, and two members of a double cone. Single cones contained one of four different oil droplets: red, pale-green, orange, and clear. Double...

Introduction: Test anxiety is a common phenomenon and the problematic concern of the educational system. Scented essentials like lavender (angustifolia) oil and Citrus aurantium (orange flower) oil have positive impact on people's physical and mental condition and anxiety. This study was designed to compare and evaluate the effects of lavender essential oil aroma and Citrus aurantium essentia...

Despite growing scientific evidence that essential oils possess important therapeutic benefits, research on their biological activities in complex human disease models is scarce. To enhance understanding in this regard, we analyzed the biological activities of an essential oil blend (EOB) in validated human cocultures with or without tumor cells. These disease models allow for measurement of ch...
