many aldehydes are important components of natural flavours. they are used in food, cosmetic, and biomedical industries in large amounts. plant cells or microorganisms carry out their production by biotransformation, which is one of the biotechnological methods that allow them to be defined as 'natural'. cell cultures of silybum marianum and peganum harmala have been studied with a vi...

Hoplitis bees of the Palaearctic subgenus Stenosmia (Megachilidae) inhabit deserts and semideserts between southern Spain and eastern Asia. They nest in excavated burrows in the soil and collect pollen from plant taxa that typically grow in desert areas, such as Frankenia (Frankeniaceae), Peganum (Nitrariaceae), Tamarix (Tamaricaceae) or Zygophyllum (Zygophyllaceae). The taxonomic revision of t...

conclusions results of this study suggest that the extract alone of peganum harmala and heracleum persicum may be useful to treat bacterial infections. objectives the major aim of the current study was to investigate the antimicrobial activity of an extract of the peganum harmala flower and heracleum persicum against acinetobacter baumannii. materials and methods the minimum inhibitory (mic) co...

This research was done to evaluate the induction of apoptosis in MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell line by Peganum harmala's extract, in which a significant amount of ß-carbolines is included. The apoptosis incidence was assessed through Annexin-V-Flous kit. The expressions of genes through which intrinsic apoptosis pathway are involved, Bax, Bcl-2, Bid, and Puma, over the genes the expressions of ...
