In the course of our investigations of new sources of higher plant lipids, seed fatty acid compositions and the tocochromanol contents of Salvia bracteata, S. euphratica var. euphratica, S. aucherii var. canascens, S. cryptantha, S. staminea, S. limbata, S. virgata, S. hypargeia, S. halophylla, S. syriaca and S. cilicica were investigated using GLC and HPLC systems. Some of the species are ende...

it is now believed that the inhibition of carbohydrate hydrolyzing enzymes (ches) in the digestive tract can significantly prolong the overall carbohydrate digestion time and decrease the postprandial hyperglycemia after a meal. therefore, inhibitors of ches can be useful therapeutic approaches in the management of diabetes mellitus, especially in the type 2, and complications associated with t...

Methanolic extracts of eight Salvia species, namely S. aethiopis, S. candidissima, S. limbata, S. microstegia, S. nemorosa, S. pachystachys, S. verticillata, and S. virgata, sampled from Eastern Anatolia in Turkey, were screened for their possible antioxidant activities by two complementary test systems, namely DPPH free radical scavenging and beta-carotene/linoleic acid. Total phenolic content...

this study was carried out to evaluate the antimicrobial and antioxidant effectiveness of different extracts from aerial parts of six salvia species including salvia ceratophylla, salvia chorassanica, salvia leriifolia, salvia macrosiphon, salvia chloroleuca and salvia virgata. the effect of the extracts against 3 gram positive and 3 gram negative bacteria was tested by the micro dilution metho...

This study concerns the morphological studies in some Salvia L. (Lamiaceae) species in Iran. In order to elucidate the taxonomic status and morphological studies, 53 accessions of 12 Salvia species were collected from their natural habitats in Iran. A total of 17 quantitative and 13 qualitative morphological characters were selected as diagnostic characters in Salvia species through the use of ...

Salvia species are known for their anti-fungal and anti-acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity. Metabolomics is defined as a comprehensive quantitative qualitative analysis of large-scale metabolites. In this study, besides determining synergistic antifungal activities selected (S. cryptantha Montbret & Aucher ex Benth., S. tchihatcheffii (Fisch. C. A. Mey.) Boiss., officinalis L., virgata Ja...
