(wild thyme) herb represents a part of large number herbal medicinal formulations such as syrups, tinctures, infusions, teas, and decoctions. recent years, there has been growing interest in testing the biological properties wild thyme, because plant is high-quality raw material, rich essential oil pharmacologically active polyphenolic compounds, whic...

An effective method was elaborated for extracting the active substances from commercially available Garden thyme and carob seeds. The antibacterial activity of dilutions of thyme and carob extracts and their combinations were studied by taking the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) with agar well diffusion technique. The most effective concentrations of the two herb extracts were used for ...

A 42-d trial was conducted to study the influence of 2 plant extracts on performance, digestibility, and digestive organ weights in broilers. The feeding program consisted of a starter diet until 21 d and a finisher diet until 42 d. There were 4 treatment groups: control; 10 ppm avilamycin (AB); 200 ppm essential oil extract (EOE) from oregano, cinnamon, and pepper; and 5,000 ppm Labiatae extra...

The effect of adding 0.05% natural herb extracts obtained from rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis), thyme (Thymbra spicata), and basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) on mackerel balls during 10 months frozen storage (-18oC) were investigated concerning sensory (raw cooked), biochemical (PV- peroxide value, FFA- free fatty acids, TVB-N -total volatile basic nitrogen, TBA- thiobarbituric acid pH) microbiolo...

This article discusses the requirements of a formal specification for the annotation of temporal information in clinical narratives. We discuss the implementation and extension of ISO-TimeML for annotating a corpus of clinical notes, known as the THYME corpus. To reflect the information task and the heavily inference-based reasoning demands in the domain, a new annotation guideline has been dev...

BACKGROUND A comparative analysis by using static headspace (HS) and steam distillation (SD) GC-MS of the volatile and the semi-volatile secondary metabolites from leaves of cultivated Majorana syriaca. METHODS The essential oils endogenous to cultivated thyme were isolated and identified by HS-GC-MS technology and compared to those from SD-GC-MS. RESULTS The HS-GC-MS results showed that th...
