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...

The detailed investigation of a methanolic extract of aerial parts of Achillea nobilis resulted in the isolation of 10 flavonoids. A new C-glycosylflavone, luteolin-6-C-apiofuranosyl-(1'''-->2'')-glucoside, was isolated besides orientin, isoorientin, vitexin, isoschaftoside, luteolin-7-O-beta-glucuronide, luteolin-4'-O-beta-glucoside and quercetin-3-O-methyl ether and two rare flavonolglycoside...

Mathematical, fuzzy logic and artificial neural network modeling of extraction kinetics essential oil from aerial parts yarrow (Achillea millefolium L.) using ohmic-assisted hydrodistillation

Achillea wilhelmsii have been used in folk remedies. The relaxant effects of the extract of A. wilhelmsii on tracheal chains of guinea pigs were examined. The relaxant effects of four cumulative concentrations of the extract, theophylline and saline were examined by their relaxant effects on precontracted tracheal chains of guinea pig by KCl (group 1), 10 μM methacholine (group 2), incubated ti...
