The genus Origanum is a well-known culinary, aromatic and medicinal taxon of the Lamiaceae family. Despite notable progress that has been made in phylogenetics Nepetoideae subfamily, remains insufficiently investigated concerning its interspecies evolutionary relationships. present study provides initial insights into phylogenetic relationships sectional classification Greek taxa, based on thre...

Majorana fermions are long-sought exotic particles that are their own antiparticles. Here we propose to utilize superconducting circuits to construct two superconducting-qubit arrays where Majorana modes can occur. A so-called Majorana qubit is encoded by using the unpaired Majorana modes, which emerge at the left and right ends of the chain in the Majorana-fermion representation. We also show ...

The present study optimized the ultrasound assisted extraction (UAE) conditions to maximize the antioxidant activity [Ferric ion Reducing Antioxidant Power (FRAP)], total phenol content (TP) and content of individual polyphenols of extracts from marjoram. Optimal conditions with regard to amplitude of sonication (24.4-61.0 μm) and extraction temperature (15-35 °C) and extraction time (5-15 min)...

When a topological order is realized in a certain class of superconductors, it supports Majorana fermions on the edge or in the vortex core. Vortices with Majorana fermion modes are neither fermions nor bosons but non-Abelian anyons, obeying the non-Abelian statistics for which the exchange operations of particles are not commutative. Because of this remarkable feature, Majorana fermions plays ...

The aim of our work was to compare cytotoxic and membrane-damaging effects of O. majorana L. essential oil and linalool on Hep G2 and to investigate their possible protective (antioxidant) effects against H2O2 induced membrane damage. The oils were investigated by GC and GC-MS and antioxidant activity was evaluated by DPPH and -carotene–linoleic acid assays. Assessment of cell viability was ma...
