This study aimed to investigate the effects of certain nutrient medium types enhanced with plant-growth regulators on direct inductionof somatic embryogenesis in vegetative strains produced and propagated from a tissue culture Digitalis purpurea. The results showthat MS was superior other tested media-B5, LS, 5C01—in terms days required initiate somaticembryogenesis induction rate. In contrast,...

echinacea purpurea is an herbaceous perennial plant as members of the asteraceae family. it is one the important medicinal plant in pharmacy industrial. active substances of echinaceae are amplifier of body's immune system and antivirus. echinacea is not native to iran. the phytochemical traits of medicinal plants depend on ecological conditions involving growing areas, climate conditions; vari...

HIGHLIGHTS Phytocomponent content of each sample is quite high and different from other. Tuber extract Orchis purpurea the most effective againts to pathogens. Most extracts are better antioxidants than ascorbic acid according DPPH test results.

background & aim: this experiment investigated the effect of foliar application of methanol and ethanol on the biomass yield of medicinal plant echinacea purpurea. purple coneflower is an herbaceous perennial in the asteraceae family that is used in therapy of respiratory tract infection and bacterial otitis. experimental: this experiment was conducted in randomized complete block designed...

due to the limited availability of effective pharmaceutical products and serious side effects of the available therapy for leishmaniasis, search for useful medicinal plants is necessary. previous studies reported preventative effect of echinacea against leishmania infections through immunologic stimulation. here we tested concentrated ethanolic extract of the root of echinacea purpurea prepared...

the antioxidant and cytotoxic properties of four major parts of methanolic extracts of tephrosia purpurea including leaves, root, stem and seed were investigated and compared. in vitro antioxidant activity of t. purpurea extracts was evaluated using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (dpph), ferric reducing antioxidant power (frap), reducing power assay and antihemolytic assay. in vitro cytotoxic ef...

Nowadays green synthesis of metal nanoparticles is a developing area of research. In this study, titanium dioxide nanoparticles were biosynthesized using an aqueous solution of Echinacea purpurea herba extract as a bioreductant. This is novel and interesting method for synthesis of TiO2 nanoparticles. The prepared titanium dioxide nanoparticles were characterized using ultraviolet–visible spect...
