Ultrasonic assist with headspace solid phase microextraction (UA-HS-SPME) have been applied, for the first time, for the extraction of volatile organic compounds of Carum carvi L. from Iran. The oils obtained were analyzed by GC–MS. Different experimental parameters such as fiber's coating type, sonication time, extraction time and temperature, and desorption time were investigated. Results sho...

Fungal plant diseases are considered one of the most destructive for plants. In this current study, Neoscytalidium dimidiatum as a fungal pathogen was isolated from an infected Carum carvi L. (C. carvi) first time and controlled it using clove essential oil nanoemulsion (CEONE). This identified morphologically genetically, then deposited in gene bank under accession number OQ338188. CEONE prepa...
