hazelnut (corylus avellna l.) is one of the important nut crops in world. the harvesting ofhazelnuts is done either by hand or by manual or mechanical raking of fallen nuts in iran.common hazel is widely cultivated for its nuts, including in commercial orchards in europe,turkey, and iran. there are some genotypes of hazelnut in iran that their growing areas arelimited to gillan, aredbil, mazand...

Palynological and archaeobotanical analyses have been carried out as part of the interdisciplinary project Colombare di Negrar, a prehistoric site in Lessini Mountains (northern Italy). The palaeoenvironmental economic reconstruction from Late Neolithic to beginning Early Bronze Age was based on 16 pollen samples three macroremains taken two contiguous trenches. landscape shows presence natural...

In the current study, the oils obtained from the nuts of Corylus avellana L. (hazelnut), Arachis hypogea L. (peanut, groundnut), Pinus pinea L. (umbrella nut), and Juglans regia L. (walnut) were tested for their antioxidant activity against 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical and antimicrobial activity against the standard and isolated strains of Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginos...

ABSTRACT In this study, the effect of urbanization and environmental pollution on qualitative (structural) and quantitative changes of the Corylus avellana (hazel) pollen was investigated using scanning electron microscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and curve-fitting analysis of amide I profile. The obtained spectroscopic results show significant variations in the fraction ...

Hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) is a popular tree nut worldwide, mainly distributed along the coasts of the Black Sea region of Turkey, southern Europe (Italy, Spain, Portugal, and France), and in some areas of the US (Oregon and Washington). Turkey is the world’s largest producer of hazelnuts, contributing ~74% to the total global production. In this study, compositional characteristics of eigh...

Natural anti-parasitic compounds in plants such as condensed tannins (CT) have anthelmintic properties against a range of gastrointestinal nematodes, but for other helminths such effects are unexplored. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of CT from three different plant extracts in a model system employing the rat tapeworm, Hymenolepis diminuta, in its intermediate host, Tenebrio m...

Pollen allergies are an important and relevant question in the personal life of millions people. They well characterized on genomic proteomic level allergens per se medicinal level, but very few information exists about natural variability background pollen allergen transcription patterns. Here, expression Bet v 1, 2, Cor a 1 2 were performed. Both analysed species, Betulla verrucosa as Corylus...
