5.1 Abstract In this study, we demonstrate a green approach for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using aqueous leaf extract of Rosmarinus officinalis under ambient conditions. The uniqueness of this method lies in its rapid synthesis within 15 min. The synthesized AgNPs were characterized using various analytical tecchniques. The synthesized particles were found to be 14.20 ̶ 42.42 ...

Improving overall health and quality of life, preventing diseases and increasing life expectancy are key concerns in the field of public health. The search for antioxidants that can inhibit oxidative damage in cells has received a lot of attention. Rosmarinus officinalis L. represents an exceptionally rich source of bioactive compounds with pharmacological properties. In the present study, we e...

Antioxidants are widely used in food products to preserve deterioration of their lipid components. Lately the nutraceutical properties of such compounds have driven much attention for their relationship with human health, and then natural antioxidants are preferred. Among natural antioxidants, rosemary (rosmarinus officinalis L.) has been described as one of the spices with higher antioxidant a...

for a suitable irrigation programming and an efficient management, crop coefficient determination for different plant growth stages are necessary. in this investigation water requirement, single and dual crop coefficient of rosmarinus officinalis l. was determine by drainable lysimeter in a semi-arid climate condition. by using of drainable lysimeter, the exact water requirement and also kc val...

Whitefly (Bemisia tabaci) is an important insect pest, causing severe damage to agricultural crops. The pest was recorded in a commercial rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis, Lamiaceae) field, colonizing rosemary variety (var.) '2', but not '11'. A series of field and controlled laboratory choice bioassays confirmed the observed phenomenon. Mature potted plants of the two varieties were randomly o...

Background: The increasing infections caused by resistant P. aeruginosa strains originate from hospitals. Therefore, many efforts are being made to find new herbal compounds as suitable substitutes for antibiotics. Objectives: present study aimed evaluate the antibacterial and anti-quorum activity of Rosmarinus methanol extract on aeruginosa. Methods: This experimental was performed standard cl...

Total antioxidant capacity (TAC) of some Rosmarinus officinalis L. (rosemary) extracts was investigated by an “in batch” analytical method based on chemiluminescence (CL). This method is based on a CL reaction between luminol and hydroxyl radicals generated by the hydrogen peroxide in the presence of Co(II) ions complexed with ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) disodium salt, according to...

Bu çalışma, kekik (Origanum onites L.) ve biberiye (Rosmarinus officinalis bitkilerinden elde edilen uçucu yağların Fusarium solani‘ye karşı antifungal aktivitesini tespit etmek amacıyla laboratuvar ortamında yürütülmüştür. Bitkilerden yağlar 1, 2 4 μl dozunda otoklav Patates Dekstroz Agar (PDA) besi yerine ilave edilmiştir. Patojenlere ait 8 mm çapında miselyum diskleri PDA yerlerine ekilmişti...
