The biogenesis of rosmarinic acid (alpha-O-caffeoyl-3,4-dihydroxyphenyl-lactic acid), the second most common ester of caffeic acid in the plant kingdom, was studied in Mentha arvense and Mentha piperita. Administration of (14)C-labelled compounds showed that, whereas the caffeoyl moiety was formed from phenylalanine via cinnamic acid and p-coumaric acid, the 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl-lactic acid moie...

This study reports, for the first time, chemical composition and biological activity of essential oil from Brazilian Cymbopogon densiflorus flowers. Thirty compounds were identified by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC/MS), corresponding to 95 % total an chromatogram obtained chromatography-flame ionization detection (GC-FID ). The was mainly composed cis-p-mentha-1(7),8-die...

A field trial was conducted at the research farm of RRL, Jorhat during 1995 and 1996 to study the performance of Mentha Piperita under varying dates of planting and row spacings, maximum herbage and oil yield were obtained from January plants crops. Yield deceased when planting was delayed planting at a closer row spacing of 45 cm recorded the maximum herbage yield of 61'92 q/a while the yield ...

This experiment was aimed to evaluate and compare the effects of adding natural extracts (clove, Mentha thyme) with synthetic BHT on some physiochemical, microbial, sensory characteristics lamb patties stored at 4 Cº for 12 days. Results indicated that there’s a steady rise (P<0.01) in oxidative rancidity, microbial pH increasing time storage. Also, significant reduction TBA, observed treate...
