There are 58 Salvia species growing naturally in Iran, including Salvia chloroleuca Rech. f. and Allen., which grows wild in the northeastern and central parts of the country. OBJECTIVES This study was designed to determine the chemical compos...

Background: Salvia mirzayanii, a native plant to Iran, is shown to have immunomodulatory effects on lymphocyte proliferation. Objective: To identify the bioactive immunomodulatory compound(s) present in S. mirzayanii. Methods: The crude extract was fractionated to five fractions in two steps using different solvents. The fractions were subjected to bioassay-guided fractionation. All the fractio...

Two flavones, ladanein and 6-hydroxy-5,7,4'-trimethoxyflavone and one labdane-type diterpene, ent-13-epi-manoyloxide, were isolated from an ethyl acetate-methanol extract of the aerial parts of Salvia sharifii. The compounds were purified using several chromatographic methods. Structural elucidation of the compounds was performed using their (1)H and (13)C-NMR data, EI mass and UV spectral data...

background: the lamiaceae family has been tried to ameliorate symptoms of stomachache and dysmenorrheal in traditional medicine. the extracts and essential oils obtained from these plants have recently attracted much scientific attention. the essential oils of some plants belonging to this family have also been used in food preservation. methods: this study employed pharmaco-diagnostic methods ...

in order to investigate effects of addition of salvia mirzayanii essence and comparison with antibiotic an experiment was conducted as dietary a completely of the randomized design with 5 treatments, and 5 replicates with 12 chickens per replicate for 42 days with treatments control, virginiamycin antibiotic 10% (100 ppm) and three levels of s. mirzayanii essence (200, 400 and 600 ppm). weight ...
