Salvia hispanica L. is an alternative crop cultivated by farmers who want to diversify their production. However, this species sensitive salinity, which affects its germination negatively. Seed priming with different attenuators a technique potential mitigate the effects of salt stress. Thus, objective study was evaluate effect seed use on germination, growth, and organic solute accumulation S....

this study documents the flavonoid constituents of seven salvia species in iran namely s.atropatana bunge, s. limbata c. a. mey, s. sclarea l., s. ceratophylla l., s. multicaulis vahl.,s. hydrangea dc. ex benth., and s. eremophila boiss. the studied species were collected fromtheir natural habitats in iran and were analyzed for their flavonoid constituents using twodimensionalthin layer chromat...

Nanoparticles derived from plants known for their high content of flavonoids provide a biologically inspired route to designing therapeutic agents and a means of reducing nanoparticle toxicity. Little is currently known on the antiviral activity of Salvia officinalis L. and Washingtonia filifera H.Wendl aqueous extracts and their corresponding nanoparticles. In the present study, antiviral acti...

Chia (Salvia hispanica L.) is an edible seed that comes from an annual herbaceous plant, Salvia hispanica L. of mint family (Lamiaceae) (Figure 1). The shape of Chia seed is oval with 1 to 2mm in size, which may be black, grey or black spotted to white in colour. Chia means strength and the tiny seeds have been used as energy booster. Chia seeds can be used in the form of whole seeds, mucilage,...

Methanolic extracts of eight Salvia species, namely S. aethiopis, S. candidissima, S. limbata, S. microstegia, S. nemorosa, S. pachystachys, S. verticillata, and S. virgata, sampled from Eastern Anatolia in Turkey, were screened for their possible antioxidant activities by two complementary test systems, namely DPPH free radical scavenging and beta-carotene/linoleic acid. Total phenolic content...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Salvia miltiorrhiza on the production of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1(PAI-1) induced by angiotensin II (Ang II) in renal mesangial cells. Rat mesangial cells were exposed to 100 nM Ang II. Meanwhile, different concentrations of Salvia miltiorrhiza injection were added to Mesangial Cells. PAI-1 mRNA was measured by semi-quantificati...

The taxonomical relationship between Salvia pratensis and S. bertolonii has been unclear for a long time. Salvia bertolonii has alternatively been considered a synonym, a subspecies, a problematic subspecies and a form of Salvia pratensis. However, both these two species are sometimes used in traditional medicine instead of sage (Salvia officinalis) or as an adulteration for the same drug. In o...

BACKGROUND/AIM To evaluate acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory activity and antioxidant capacity of the major molecule from Salvia sp., rosmarinic acid, as a drug candidate molecule for treatment of Alzheimer disease (AD). MATERIALS AND METHODS The AChE inhibitory activity of different extracts from Salvia trichoclada, Salvia verticillata, and Salvia fruticosa was determined by the Ellman ...

4 different plant species belonging to the same family mint (Mentha piperita), sage (Salvia officinalis), rosemary (Rosmarinus lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) were harvested from Afyon region. Total antioxidant and phenolic contents analyzed by DPPH Folin-Ciocalteu method. The effect of extra virgin olive oils oxidation stability was tested means rancimat According analysis results, M. piperi...
