Abstract The objective of the present study was to investigate dose-response effects essential oil (EO) and dry extract (EX) Satureja khuzistanica (SK) on in vitro gas production kinetics, rumen fermentation, ruminal methanogenesis microbial protein synthesis. So, EO EX were tested at 0 (as control); 150 (low dose); 300, 450 (intermediate doses) 600 mg/L (high dose). produced over 24 h incubati...

The essential oils obtained from different officinal plants of Lebanon, belonging to the Magnoliophyta division, have been tested for their antiproliferative activity on human erythroleukemic K562 cells. Satureja montana showed the most interesting biological activity in inhibiting the cell growth and inducing erythroid differentiation of K562 cells. The essential oil of Satureja montana was th...

BACKGROUND Traditional herbal medicine is a valuable resource that provides new drugs for cancer treatment. OBJECTIVES In this study we aim to screen and investigate the in vitro anti-tumor activities of ten species of plants commonly grown in Southern Iran. MATERIALS AND METHODS We used the MTT colorimetric assay to evaluate the cytotoxic activities of the methanol extracts of these plants...

The nanosilver food packaging films were developed by polyvinyl alcohol activated with Satureja rechingeri extract (S-AgNPs/PVA) using the solvent casting to evaluate freshness of Oncorhynchus mykiss fillets during 14 days at refrigerated temperature. 160 pieces fish enfolded in 4 types as main group-series. components carvacrol (83.2%) p-cymene (3.11%), thymol (2.13%) and γ-terpinene (1.63%). ...

this study was carried out to investigate the effect ofadministration of satureja khuzistanica essential oil (skeo) in drinking water on performance, lipid oxidation, activity of antioxidative enzymes and cholesterol content of thigh meat using 720 one-day-old ross 308 broiler chicks. the skeo was added into drinking water at zero (control-), 200, 300, 400 and 500 mg/l along with a treatment co...

background & aim: in present study, some of the iranian endemic medicinal plants were used to evaluate potential as well as therapeutic agent and immunostimulants in aquaculture. the essential oils of five species from leaves and inflorescence were used to determinate the effects on immune system in rainbow trout (oncorhynchus mykiss). experimental: the experimental in a completely randomiz...

According to biologically active compounds and traditional use of the Satureja bachtiarica, seem that this plant has significant antimicrobial effects. In this study antimicrobial effect of extracts evaluated by two methods, “Collins method” and “disk agar diffusion method” on Escherichia coli PTCC 1330 and Staphylococcus aureus PTCC 1337 microorganisms. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MI...
