The triacylglycerol (TAG) structure and the regio-stereospecific distribution of fatty acids (FA) of seed oils from most of the Apiaceae family are not well documented. The TAG structure ultimately determines the final physical properties of the oils and the position of FAs in the TAG molecule affects the digestion; absorption and metabolism; and physical and technological properties of TAGs. F...

Background and objectives: It is necessary to specify the best conditions of essential oils production to get more major compound(s) and higher yield oil. The fennel oil is useful in pharmaceutical industry as flavor. The main component of fennel oil is anethole (55-75%). The objective of this work was to identify the effect of  particle size, pH of water, method of distillatio...

in order to investigate the effects of mycorrhiza symbiosis and different nitrogen levels on yield, yield components and essential oil content and yield of fennel (foeniculum vulgare mill.) and ajowan (carum copticum l.), a field experiment was arranged in a factoriel based on a randomized complete block design with three replications at the agricultural research station, ferdowsi university of...

CASE REPORT A 35-year-old female presented with multiple asymptomatic spiny protrusions on her left sole, which gradually accumulated for 2 years. Clinical examination revealed hundreds of asymmetrically distributed, minute, flesh-colored, keratotic papules on the patient's left sole (Fig. 1). On close-up inspection, the lesions, which measured 0.5 to 2 mm in height, were firmly attached. The p...

In Europe and the Mediterranean region, ‘Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum’ (Lso) is associated with emerging diseases of Apiaceae crops, mainly carrot. Emergency measures for import carrot seed were set, requiring to be heat-treated at 50°C or tested as Lso-negative by PCR. The germination response heat treatment was assessed 24 cultivar hybrid lots. Ten parsley, five fennel, two celery lot...

A wide range of medicinal plant parts that possess varied medicinal properties are used for extracts as raw drugs. In this study, the ethanolic extract obtained from aerial parts of fennel (Foeniculum vulgare Mill.) seedlings was evaluated in vitro to examine their antimicrobial activity against four Gram-negative and three Gram-positive bacteria and two fungi. Aerial parts of one-month-old see...
