background: although borage ( borago officinalis l.) is a valuable medicinal plant, no information is available on the responses of this plant to salinity. for this reason, it is necessary to determine responses of this plant to salinity .  objective: since germination and early growth stage is one of the most critical phases of plant life under salinity condition this experiment was conducted ...

The oil from the seeds of Borago officinalis L. (borage) is a major commercial source of ?-linolenic acid. The fatty acid has a great potential therapeutic value in the treatment of several diseases. In the present work the efficiency of high pressure extraction of borage seed oil containing ?linolenic acid in high concentrations was investigated. Extraction was performed by semicontinuous flow...

Borage (Borago officinalis L.) seed oil has been used as a treatment for various degenerative diseases. Many useful properties of this oil are attributed to its high gamma linolenic acid content (GLA, 18:3 ω-6). The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the safety and suitability of the use of borage seed oil, along with one of its active components, GLA, with respect to DNA integrity, and t...

This study aimed to determine the antioxidant activity of Borago officinalis essential oil in thermal oxidation fish oil. The volatile compound profile B. (BEO) was determined using gas chromatography and mass spectrometry. As a result analysis, 97.27 percent components product were characterized. product’s major benzene acetaldehyde (28.59 percent) linalool (13.60 percent). free radical scaven...

Abstract Body size is a trait that can affect plant–pollinator interaction efficiency and plant reproductive success. We explored the impact of intraspecific shifts on interactions between pollinators flowering plants under controlled conditions. considered two development conditions leading to production large small individual flowers Borago officinalis Echium plantagineum . also used natural ...
