This study aimed to analyse the phenolic composition of wild fruits of Arbutus unedo (strawberry-tree), Prunus spinosa (blackthorn), Rosa canina and Rosa micrantha (wild roses). Analyses were performed by HPLC-DAD-ESI/MS. P spinosa fruits presented the highest concentration in phenolic acids (29.78 mg/100 g dry weight), being 3-O-caffeoylquinic acid the most abundant one, and flavone/ols (57.48...

Introduction: Rosa Damasca essential oil is currently used as anti-depressant in animal models and human. Considering the similarities between Rosa Canina and Rosa Damasca, the effects of water and alcoholic extracts of R. Canina on depression induced by forced swimming test (FST) in mice were investigated. Methods: Male NMRI mice (25-30 g) were used (n=6/group). Intraperitoneal injections o...

The new a-pyrone derivative II was isolated in crystalline form from extracts of dormant seeds of Rosa canina. It inhibits germination of seeds of Amaranthus caudatus completely, but reversibly, at conc. > 2.5 x 10~5 m . Its chemical structure was elucidated by mass spectrometry, 'Hand 13CNMR spectroscopy to be 3-methyl-l-oxa-bicyclo (4,1,0) hept-5-en-2-one-4,6-dicarboxylic acid di­ methylester...

Dog rose (Rosa canina L.) is one of the most important ornamental and medicinal plants which are used as a rootstock for ornamental roses such as Rosa hybrid and Rosa floribunda. In vitro propagation of rose has a very important role in rapid multiplication of species with desirable traits and in production of healthy and d...
