Tanacetum parthenium, also known as feverfew, is rich in bioactive compounds, namely sesquiterpene lactones, flavonoids, and volatile oils. Sesquiterpene lactones possess anti-migraine activity, while phenolic compounds anti-inflammatory antioxidant action. Phytochemical composition determines the pharmacological activity so profiling essential quality assessment. The study aimed to evaluate cu...

Floral volatiles and reward traits are major drivers for the behavior of mutualistic as well antagonistic flower visitors, i.e., pollinators florivores. These floral differ tremendously between species, but intraspecific differences their consequences on organism interactions remain largely unknown. volatile compounds, such terpenoids, function cues to advertise rewards pollinators, should at s...

The essential oils obtained by hydrodistillation (HD), steam distillation (SD) and solvent free microwave extraction (SFME) from the stems and flowers of Tanacetum tenuisectum (Boiss.) Podl., which is endemic to Iran,were analyzed by GC and GC/MS.Camphor (26.9 %, 27.2% and 25.5%), borneol (12.6%, 11.5% and 7.6%) and 1, 8-cineole (7.9%, 13.2% and 11.3%) were the main constituents of the HD, SD a...
