Essential oils from herbs and roots of Conyza canadensis (horseweed), collected in Hungary, were obtained by hydrodistillation. The chemical compositions of the oils were analysed by combination of GC and GC/MS. The major constituent of the oil obtained from the aerial parts of horseweed was limonene (78%), while the main component of root oil was 2Z,8Z-matricaria ester. The antimicrobial activ...

The aim of this study was to determine and compare Ba, Cr, Cd, Fe, Sr, Pb, and Zn content in medicinal herbs Urtica dioica L., Taraxacum officinale, and Matricaria recutita growing in polluted and unpolluted areas of the Republic of Macedonia.

The pharmacokinetics of diminazene aceturate following intramuscular (i.m.) administration at 4.2 mg/kg was evaluated in 8 healthy German Shepherd dogs. Blood samples were collected at 19 intervals over a period of 21 days. Diminazene plasma concentrations were measured using a validated HPLC method with UV detection and a sensitivity of 25 ng/ml. The in vitro and in vivo binding of diminazene ...

Abstract Golovinomyces longipes is a widespread powdery mildew on Solanaceae ( Nicotiana , Petunia and Solanum spp.). In the past, it has been reported only once Verbena Verbenaceae ), non-solanaceaous host. Recently, this found composite Matricaria chamomilla . The identification of species unusual host proved by morphological studies DNA sequence analysis. Both datasets coincide with characte...
