Many species belonging to the Scrophularia genus have been used since ancient times as folk remedies for many medical conditions such as scrofulas, scabies, tumors, eczema, psoriasis, inflammations. The aim of this study was to characterize the matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) inhibitor compounds of the Scrophularia striata extract by bio-guide fractionation. The aerial parts of S. striata were...

Neuroprotective effect of the extract from aerial parts of Scrophularia striata Boiss (Scrophulariaceae) was investigated against glutamate-induced neurotoxicity on cultured rat pups Cerebellar Granule Neurons (CGNs). CGNs from 8 days old Sprague-Dawley rat were prepared and cultured. The experiments were performed after 8 days in culture. The plant was collected from the northeastern part (Rui...

BACKGROUND The cause of death in burn patients after 48 hours of hospitalization has been reported to be bacterial infections. Recently, due to the compounds accelerating the healing process and the intense reduction of treatment side effects, medicinal plants are used to cure burn wound infections. This study aims to investigate the medicinal effect of the ethanolic extract of Scrophularia str...

there are considerable efforts to identify naturally occurring substances as new drugs in cancer therapy. many components of medicinal plants have been identified that possess substantial anticancerous properties. this prompted us to investigate the effect of scrophularia striata (an iranian species belonging to the scrophulariace family) extract on the growth of astrocyte cancer cell line (132...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of Scrophularia striata water extract on the quality and shelf life of the rainbow trout fillet during superchilled storage. Fish samples were treated with 1% and 3% S. striata water extract and then stored at -2°C for 20 days. The samples were analyzed periodically for chemical, microbial and sensory characteristics. Results indicated that ...

Green synthesis is a simple, low-cost, non-toxic, environmentally friendly and efficient approach touse. Leaf extract of plants rich in polyphenols, such as flavonoids, is a powerful agent in reducing thesynthesis of gold nanoparticles. The purpose of this study is to investigate the parameters affecting thebiosynthesis of gold nanoparticles using the aqueous extract of Scroph...
