The detailed investigation of a methanolic extract of aerial parts of Achillea nobilis resulted in the isolation of 10 flavonoids. A new C-glycosylflavone, luteolin-6-C-apiofuranosyl-(1'''-->2'')-glucoside, was isolated besides orientin, isoorientin, vitexin, isoschaftoside, luteolin-7-O-beta-glucuronide, luteolin-4'-O-beta-glucoside and quercetin-3-O-methyl ether and two rare flavonolglycoside...

Mathematical, fuzzy logic and artificial neural network modeling of extraction kinetics essential oil from aerial parts yarrow (Achillea millefolium L.) using ohmic-assisted hydrodistillation

Achillea wilhelmsii have been used in folk remedies. The relaxant effects of the extract of A. wilhelmsii on tracheal chains of guinea pigs were examined. The relaxant effects of four cumulative concentrations of the extract, theophylline and saline were examined by their relaxant effects on precontracted tracheal chains of guinea pig by KCl (group 1), 10 μM methacholine (group 2), incubated ti...

Objective(s):The present study investigated the antidiabetic and hypolipidemic properties of Dorema aucheri leave hydroalcoholic extract in nicotinamide-streptozotocin induced type 2 diabetic rats. Materials and Methods: nicotinamide/streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats were supplemented orally with three different doses of D.  aucheri (100, 200 and 400 mg/kg BW) or glibenclamide (0.25 mg/kg) f...
