Antioxidants are important inhibitory compounds against the oxidative deterioration of food. This study investigated the effects of various phytochemical antioxidant systems [oleoresin rosemary (OR), oleoresin sage (OS) and citric acid (CA)] on the physico-chemical characteristics of refined, bleached and deodorized (RBD) palm olein during the frying of potato chips. The effects of various mixt...

Background: Common sage (Salvia officinalis) is a popular culinary and medicinal herb. A literature survey has revealed that sage oils can vary widely in their chemical compositions. The purpose of this study was to examine sage essential oil from different sources/origins and to define the possible chemotypes of sage oil. Methods: Three different samples of sage leaf essential oil have been ob...

Here, we show a new, simple, and rapid SYBR Green-based Real-Time PCR assay for the quantification of hallucinogenic plants in plant mixtures. As a test plant, Salvia divinorum Epling & Játiva-M., a perennial herb belonging to the Lamiaceae family able to induce hallucinations, changes in perception, or other psychologically induced changes with similar potency as LSD, was used. The method was ...

In June 2020, many plants exhibited symptoms of root rot and foliar blight in the experimental field common sage Şanlıurfa province, Turkey. The pathogen was identified as Neoscytalidium novaehollandiae based on morphological characteristics phylogenetic analysis partial sequence transcription elongation factor 1-α gene internal transcribed spacer rDNA. Koch’s postulates were fulfilled by succe...

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are secondary metabolites responsible for the aroma of grapes and quality wine. Apart from genetics, agronomic practices may impact composition concentration volatiles in grape berries. The possible influence intercropping with medicinal aromatic plants (MAPs) on VOCs berries’ profile has been poorly explored. Trebbiano Romagnolo is a white Vitis vinifera culti...

Extensive research suggests that a number of plant-derived chemicals and traditional Oriental herbal remedies possess cognition-enhancing properties. Widely used current treatments for dementia include extracts of Ginkgo biloba and several alkaloidal, and therefore toxic, plant-derived cholinergic agents. Several non-toxic, European herbal species have pan-cultural traditions as treatments for ...
