Electromagnetic field (EMF) causes fundamental alternations in biological systems. In this study, we studied the effects of EMF on physiological responses and secondary metabolites production SiO2 NP-treated Anthemis gilanica plants. The results indicated that improved plant growth by inducing chlorophyll carotenoid content, which led to enhanced biomass adventitious roots treatment activity an...

Anthemis nobilis (Roman chamomile) flower extract, anthemis nobilis flower oil, anthemis nobilis flower powder, and anthemis nobilis flower water are ingredients that function as fragrance ingredients and skin-conditioning agents in cosmetic products. These ingredients are being used at concentrations up to 10% (anthemis nobilis flower water) in cosmetic products. The available data indicate th...

In this research, effects of SiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) on the growth, antioxidant properties, and phenolic and flavonoid contents were investigated in Anthemis gilanica plants from the Asteraceae family. Following seed germination, seedlings were cultured under Hoagland growth media and were treated with different concentrations of SiO2NPs (0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 g L-1). The results showed that SiO2 N...

The genus Anthemis L., assigned by Bremer (1994) to the tribe Anthemideae (subtribe Anthemidinae) of the Asteraceae, comprises ca. 210 species. The Anthemidinae consist of the genus Anthemis with provisional addition of the monotypic genus NanantheaDC (Bremer, 1994). Anthemis wiedemanniana Fisch. & C.A. Mey. (section Cota) is an endemic species distributed in the Mediterranean, the Middle and t...

The essential oils of water-distilled aerial parts of Anthemis pseudocotula and Anthemis cretica subsp. pontica (Asteraceae) were analysed by GC-MS. As a result thirty-five and forty compounds were identified representing 93.1% and 89.0% of the oils, respectively. The main compounds of A. pseudocotula were 1,8-cineole (39.40%), camphor (9.36%), artemisiaketone (5.68%), filifolene (5.15%), and a...

Four new eudesmanolides and two new guaianolides were isolated from the aerial parts of Anthemis carpatica Willd. and their structures elucidated by spectral methods. In addition, seven known sesquiterpene lactones were identified.

BACKGROUND Anthemis palestina (Asteraceae) extends across the Mediterranean region, southwest Asia and eastern Africa. Although traditionally used for several applications, in vitro investigation of biological functions associated with Anthemis palestina essential oil had never been reported. METHODS The air-dried flowers of Anthemis palestina were subjected to hydrodistillation to yield the ...
