The identification and quantification of the phenolic contents of methanolic extracts of three Salvia L. species namely S. brachyantha (Bordz.) Pobed, S. aethiopis L., and S. microstegia Boiss. and Bal. were evaluated using reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography, UV adsorption, and mass spectrometry (RP-HPLC/MS). In order to determine the antioxidant capacity of these species, cup...

eight salvia l. species including s. spinosa l., s. reuterana boiss., s. macrosiphon boiss., s. syriaca l., s. nemorosa l., s. virgata jacq., s. sharifii rech. f. & esfand. and s. mirzayanii rech. f. & esfand. were studied for flavonoid compounds. these constituents were analyzed using two-dimensional maps on silica gel 60f thin layer chromatography. the flavonoid compounds of each spec...

The aerial part of Salvia wiedemannii Boiss. (Lamiaceae) has been used for treatment of peptic ulcers and relieving pain in Turkish folk medicine. To evaluate the analgesic effect of S. wiedemannii, tail flick and acetic acid-induced writhing tests were used in mice. The chloroform extract (500 mg/kg, i.p.) obtained from S. wiedemannii showed significant analgesic activity on tail flick assay, ...

The chemical composition of the essential oils of S. hierosolymitana Boiss. and S. multicaulis Vahl. var. simplicifolia Boiss. collected in Lebanon was studied by means of GC and GC-MS analysis. In all 115 compounds were identified: 82 for S hierosolymitana and 72 for S. multicaulis var. simplicifolia. The presence of carbonylic compounds (17%) characterizes the oil from S. hierosolymitana,whil...

Eight Salvia L. species including S. spinosa L., S. reuterana Boiss., S. macrosiphon Boiss., S. syriaca L., S. nemorosa L., S. virgata Jacq., S. sharifii Rech. f. & Esfand. and S. mirzayanii Rech. f. & Esfand. were studied for flavonoid compounds. These constituents were analyzed using two-dimensional maps on silica gel 60F thin layer chromatography. The flavonoid compounds of each species were...
