there is little information available on morphological and agronomic traits, as well aschemical compositions of iranian mint landraces. this study was conducted to investigate themorphological, agronomic and oil content characteristics of iranian mint landraces using twelvelandraces, three of which belong to mentha longifolia, and the remaining, mentha spicata l, originatedfrom central regions ...

Abstract Cystic echinococcosis is a public health problem in developing countries that practice sheep breeding extensively. In the current study, protoscolicidal activity of biosynthesized zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) derived from Mentha longifolia L. leaf extracts was investigated. The resultant ZnO NPs were characterized by means various analytical techniques, such as ultraviolet–visibl...

The antioxidant activity and free radical scavenging capacity of the essential oil and three different extracts of wildly grown Mentha longifolia (M. longifolia) were studied. The essential oil from M. longifolia aerial parts was isolated by hydrodistillation technique using Clevenger-type apparatus. The extracts were prepared with three solvents of different polarity (n-hexane, dichloromethane...

In the present investigation an attempt has been made to enhance rosmarinic acid level in plants, grown in vitro, of 2 species of Mentha in presence of 2 precursors in the nutrient media during culture. For in vitro culture establishment and shoot bud multiplication, MS basal media were used supplemented with different concentrations and combinations of different growth regulator like NAA (alph...
