The intention of this study was to compare the different parts Tunisian Ferula communis via their fatty acids, essential oils and phenolic compounds. Results showed that lipid fraction fruits leaves characterized by predominance oleic acid. Erucic linoleic acids were most abundant in stems while palmitic flowers. F. defined four chemotypes, namely isoshyobunone/6-tert-butyl-4-methylcoumarin ste...

BACKGROUND It was shown that plants derived agents are being used for treatment of cancer. In this study, crude ethanolic extract of Consolida orientalis L., Ferula assa-foetida L., Coronilla varia L., Orobanche orientalis G. Beck were screened in vitro for cytotoxic activity on Hela (Human cervical carcinoma) cell line. OBJECTIVES We performed the present study to evaluate the in vitro cytot...
