Olea europaea L. is used in traditional medicine in the Mediterranean areas. Its natural products are used in the treatment of different disorders, like fighting fever and some infectious diseases such as malaria, the treatment of arrhythmia, and relief of intestinal spasms. The aim of the current study is to investigate the possible anti-inflammatory and anatinociceptive effects of methanol an...

In (B), the N. europaea amo subunits were mislabeled and misplaced. Their orientation should be reversed such that the amoC subunit appears in opposite orientation to the far left, followed by the A subunit and then the B subunit. This results in the inversion of the shaded boxes connecting the N. europaea and C. symbiosum amo subunits with respect to the original image. The color coding of the...

In our study, useful molecules in Rosmarinus officinalis ve Olea europaea have been purified. Rosmarinus officinalis is a rich source of active antioxidants. One of the most important bioactive molecules of those is rosmarinic acid. Rosmarinic acid has healing property in allergic inflammatory processes, is antitumoral, as well as has neuroprotective properties in chemical neurotoxicity and dif...

The correlations between skeletal parameters (bulk density, micro-density and porosity), coral age and sea surface temperature were assessed along a latitudinal gradient in the zooxanthellate coral Balanophyllia europaea and in the azooxanthellate coral Leptopsammia pruvoti. In both coral species, the variation of bulk density was more influenced by the variation of porosity than of micro-densi...

Leaves of Olea europaea L. (Oleacea) are used in Tunisian folk medicine to treat many inflammation type and bacterial infections such as icterus, otitis, gingivitis and cough.The aim of this study was to investigate the chemical composition and to screen the DPPH radical-scavenging activity and the anti-inflammatory and the analgesic activities of the essential oil of Olea europaea L. leaves (E...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS The olive (Olea europaea subsp. europaea) was domesticated in the Mediterranean area but its wild relatives are distributed over three continents, from the Mediterranean basin to South Africa and south-western Asia. Recent studies suggested that this crop originated in the Levant while a secondary diversification occurred in most westward areas. A possible contribution of th...

The kinetics of the cometabolism of trichloroethylene (TCE) by the ammonia-oxidizing soil bacterium Nitrosomonas europaea in short-term (<10-min) incubations were investigated. Three individual effects of TCE cometabolism on this bacterium were characterized. First, we observed that TCE is a potent competitive inhibitor of ammonia oxidation by N. europaea. The K(infi) value for TCE (30 (mu)M) i...

Euhalophyte Salicornia europaea L., one of the most salt-tolerant plant species in the world, can tolerate more than 1000 mM NaCl. To study the salt tolerance mechanism of this plant, the effects of different NaCl concentrations on plant growth, as well as Na(+) accumulation and distribution at organ, tissue, and subcellular levels, were investigated. Optimal growth and an improved photosynthet...
