Background & Aim: Papaver bracteatum Lindl.  (Papaverace) is an important pharmaceutical plant which contains isoqinoline alkaloids. Isoqinoline alkaloids constitute one distinct group of secondary metabolites of the Papaverace family. Codeine and thebaine are important alkaloids of Papaver bracteatum which use widely due to its medicinal properties. Therefore it is...

Previous studies have shown that the extract of Papaver rhoeas reduces morphine dependence, locomotor activity and reward. In present study, the effects of hydro-alcohol extract of Papaver Rhoeas on the tolerance to analgesic effects of morphine in mice have been investigated using tail flick method. Subcutaneous (s.c.) administration of morphine (1, 2, 5 and 10 mg/kg) induced analgesia. Howeve...

Crude aqueous and methanolic extracts of 97 plant species belonging to 35 families collected from the west of Iran were screened for antifungal activity against economically important phytopathogenic fungi, Pythium aphanidermatum. Bioassay of the extracts was conducted by paper disc diffusion method on agar plate cultures with four replications. Seventeen of 97 (17.5%) plant species showed inhi...
