Artemisia pollen is an important allergen in Europe. In Poznań (Western Poland), three Artemisia species, A. vulgaris, A. campestris and A. absinthium, are widely distributed. However, the contributions of these species to the total airborne pollen are unknown. The aim of the study was to determine the flowering phenology and pollen production of the three abovementioned species and to construc...

the present study was carried out to investigate cytotoxic activity of flower, leaf, stem and root extracts of five artemisia species against breast cancer cell line (mcf7) and human embryonic kidney normal cell line (hek293). the studied artemisia species were a. absinthium , a. vulgaris , a. incana , a. fragrans and a. spicigera . the cytotoxic activity was measured by mtt assay at different ...

BACKGROUND Arnica montana L. and Artemisia absinthium L. (Asteraceae) are medicinal plants native to temperate regions of Europe, including Romania, traditionally used for treatment of skin wounds, bruises and contusions. In the present study, A. montana and A. absinthium ethanolic extracts were evaluated for their chemical composition, antioxidant activity and protective effect against H2O2-in...

The aim of this work was to establish the antioxidant capacity and the polyphenolic profile of Artemisia absinthium that could potentially be used in the human diet. An ultra-high performance liquid chromatographic method was used to identify and quantify individual phenolic compounds of the A. absinthium leaves. A total of 20 polyphenolic compounds were identified and quantified in A. absinthi...

Abstract The leaves of different species the genus Artemisia show considerable inner and external structural diversity. This paper presents a comparative study micromorphological features leaf surface for seven from regions Ukraine: A. absinthium L., annua dracunculus marschalliana Spreng., vulgaris argyi H.Lév. & Vaniot, verlotiorum Lamotte. vegetative organs these plants have potentially ...

In vitro efficacy of ethanolic extracts obtained from the aerial parts of Ageratum conyzoides and Artemisia absinthium was assessed on Rhipicephalus microplus using adult immersion test (AIT). Five concentrations of the extract (1.25%, 2.5%, 5%, 10%, and 20%) with three replications for each concentration were used in the bioassay. In AIT, the maximum mortality was recorded as 40% and 66.7% at ...
