Malaria is considered a major health problem in Iran. There are different methods for vector control. In this study we tested the larvicidal effects of some Iranian plants. The methanolic extracts of 11 plants were prepared with percolation method. The larvicidal activities of them against malaria vector, Anopheles stephensi were studied using World Health Organization standard method. All LC50...

UNLABELLED BACKGROUND Immunostimulatory therapy is now being recognized as an alternative to conventional chemotherapy for a variety of disease conditions, involving the impaired immune response of the host. In the present study, the immunostimulatory effect of the butanolic extract obtained from S. mialhesi aerial parts, was evaluated in vivo. METHODS The immunostimulant potential of the ...

Background: Skin eruption is a disease that it is because of skin necrosis and adolescence and youth depression. The some species of Staphylococcuss are agent of this disease. There isn’t effective drug for curing of this disease. Many of medicinal plants (e.x. Stachys inflata Benth.) have anti- bacterial compounds and they can be used as a drug to cure skin eruption disease. Objective: This r...

Preparative reversed-phase HPLC analysis of the methanol extract of the aerial parts of Stachys bombycina (Lamiaceae) afforded two acylated flavonoids glycosides, chrysoeriol 7-O-[6-O-acetyl-beta-D-allopyranosyl]-(1 --> 2)-beta-D-glucopyranoside (1) and apigenin 7-O-beta-D-(6-p-coumaroyl)-glucopyranoside (2), the former being a new natural product. The structures of these compounds were elucida...
