An overview of the studies carried out in our laboratories on supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) of volatile oils from seven aromatic plants: pennyroyal (Mentha pulegium L.), fennel seeds (Foeniculum vulgare Mill.), coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.), savory (Satureja fruticosa Béguinot), winter savory (Satureja montana L.), cotton lavender (Santolina chamaecyparisus) and thyme (Thymus vulgari...

N recent years the remarkable polymorphism of snails of the genus Cepaea IHeld has continued to attract considerable attention. The variation from place to place in the proportions of the different phenotypes has proved to be useful material for the study of evolution in natural populations (CAIN and SHEPPARD 1950, 1954; CLARKE 1960; CLARKE and MURRAY 1962; LAMOTTE 1951, 1959; SCHNETTER 195 1 ;...

in order to control of penicilluim digitatum fungi in vitro condition, the effect of essential oils of cinnamomum verum, zataria multiflora, mentha pipereta, carum carvi, lavandula officinalis and satureja hortensis on inhibition of spore germination and colony growth at 25,50,75 ppm concentration, was examined. results showed that the cinnamon essential oil had the best effect on inhibition of...

Two experiments were designed to evaluate the addition of essential oils to preservative solution and subsequent effects on postharvest quality and vase life of Gladiolus ‘Sorati’ cut flowers. In first experiment, the solutions of savory (Satureja hortensis.), ajowan (Trachyspermum ammi) and thyme (Thymus vulgaris) were applied at the concentrations of 2, 4, and 6 (mg L−1), distilled water + 2%...
