Artemisia herba-alba Asso (Compositae) is used in oriental Morocco to treat diabetes and arterial hypertension. The present work evaluated the vasorelaxant effect of Artemisia herba-alba aqueous extract (AHAE) in isolated rat aorta and the mechanism underlying this effect. In endothelium-containing aorta preparations, AHAE (10(-3), 10(-2), 10(-1), 1 and 2 mg/mL) relaxed the contraction elicited...

PURPOSE Carrying out the chemical composition and antiproliferative effects against cancer cells from different biological parts of Artemisia herba alba. METHODS Essential oils were studied by gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and their antitumoral activity was tested against P815 mastocytoma and BSR kidney carcinoma cell lines; also, in order to evaluate the effect on n...

Plant extracts and essential oils are promising new sources of non-toxic alternatives to chemicals substances. They used for their antimicrobial properties against plant diseases fungal origin, bacterial, those virus origin. This study was carried out the antifungal activity Artemisia herba-alba, Foeniculum vulgare Citrus sinensis Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. albedinis. Essential oil extracted by ...

In this modest work, a local biopolymer (CHA), biodegradable, non-toxic, and soluble in acidic media, was extracted from the plant Artemisia herba-alba located eastern region of Morocco, characterized by FT-IR, order to valorize it as corrosion inhibitor mild steel 1 M HCl medium. The electrochemical tests show that extract is an excellent protective agent, reaching maximum value 96.17% at conc...

primary information about different methods of vegetation sampling is important to researchers to decide about their sampling. in this study we applied five distance methods (closest individual, nearest neighbor, random pairs, point-centered quarter and angle orderd) to estimate plant density in three vegetation types including artemisia sieberi, juncus littoralis and punica granatum in mazanda...

INTRODUCTION Considering the numerous physical and psychological problems in hemo-dialysis patients, they are dependent on others in some daily activities and in fact, they do not have full self-care ability. A few studies have ever been done, particularly in Iran, on self-care ability of hemodialysis patients. The present study aimed to determine self-care ability of these patients in addition...
