Background: Because of the scarcity of antifungal drugs,their undesired side effects and emergence of drug resistant strains research for finding novel antifungal drugs with less side effects is necessary. In this research, the antifungal effects of satureja khuzistanica essence,which is a native plant in our province, on ten kinds of fungi were evaluated. Materials and methods: To extract the...

Synthetic seed technology is a suitable approach for the rapid, and uniform mass production of Satureja khuzistanica Jamzad, valuable medicinal plant Lamiaceae family. In this study, encapsulation micro-cuttings S. using sodium alginate (SA) was investigated. order to determine best conditions encapsulation, different concentrations SA CaCl2·2H2O, types explants matrix culture media, growth reg...

BACKGROUND The use of antioxidants in the treatment of infertility has been suggested and recent studies have indicated that oral administration of Satureja Khuzestanica essential oil (SKEO) to rats induces significant antioxidative effects. OBJECTIVE This systematic review was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of antioxidants in infertility and also to assess the effectiveness of Satur...

The genus Satureja is represented by fifteen species of which five are endemic and Satureja pilosa and S. icarica have recently been found as new records for Turkey. Aerial parts of the Satureja pilosa, S. icarica, S. boissieri and S. coerulea collected from different localities in Turkey were subjected to hydrodistillation to yield essential oils which were subsequently analysed by GC and GC/M...

The purpose of this study was to compare the essential oil profiles of four South-Croatian Satureja species, as determined by GC/FID and GC/MS, with their DNA sequences for an internal transcribed spacer (ITS1-5.8S-ITS2) of the nuclear ribosomal DNA. A phylogenetic analysis showed that S. montana and S. cuneifolia, characterized by a similar essential oil composition, rich in the monoterpene hy...

The genus Satureja belonging to the Lamiaceae family includes about 200 species, generally aromatic, distributed in Mediterranean basin. In Satureja, chromosomal data were reported from only 26 species. this study, it is aimed eliminate deficiencies of which are Turkey, center origin and diversity Satureja. It was one chromosome number (2n = 30), first report for numbers three taxa, same count ...
