The selected parts of four medicinal plants, Achillea millefolium, Hibiscus rosasinensis, Linum usitatissimum and Pluchea lanceolata were extracted in absolute methanol to determine their analgesic activity. Analgesic activity was assessed on intact mice by tail flick latency via the tail immersion method. The analgesic activities of these plant extracts were compared with acetylsalicylic a...

objective: achillea is a traditional medicinal herb which contains different phenol and flavonoid compounds that are responsible for achillea pharmacological effects. we aimed to determine phenol and flavonoid contents, besides antioxidant activities of different extracts from achillea eriophoraa (a. eriophora) dc. and achillea biebersteinii (a. biebersteinii) afan. (endemic species in iran) an...

In this study, antioxidant and antiproliferative properties of ‘‘Achillea phrygia’’ were investigated. Since the activity B sub-extract from plant’s chloroform extract is higher than other extracts, Achillea phrygia was used in preparation nanoparticles. Characterization nanoparticles made, activities IC50 values only calculated by cell culture studies XTT viability test. According to results, ...

In this study, total phenolics and flavonoid compounds of methanol extract concentrations three medicinal plant, Asteraceae (Compositae) L. genus that are grown in Turkey belong to the Achillea, were determined with goal measuring their antioxidant activities. Antioxidant capacity was measured by widely used iron reducing power, DPPH radical scavenging activity metal chelating capacity. The act...

Nowadays, medicinal plants used in folk medicine are being increasingly studied and used on pharmaceutical, food and nutraceutical fields. Yarrow (Achillea millefolium L.) is widely used in both folk and official medicine. Therefore, in the present paper different extracts of yarrow inflorescences and upper leaves were investigated for their total polyphenolic content and antioxidant activity u...

species in Italy of which nine are endemic. Several Achillea species are used for their pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and fragrance properties. The extracts exhibit pharmacologic activities such as antiinflammatory, analgesic, and antipyretic properties. Achillea ligustica ALL., a member of the Achillea nobilis group, has been used as medicine mainly for the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders ...
