Resistance of many pathogens to available drugs is a global challenge and is leading to growing interest in natural alternative products. In this study, chemical composition and in vitro antibacterial and antifungal activities of the essential oil from Salvia mirzayanii were investigated. The chemical constituents of essential oil from S mirzayanii were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spect...

Salvia mirzayanii is member of Lamiaceae family, which distributes only in south of Iran. Phytochemical composition of essential oil isolated by hydro distillation from the aerial parts of Salvia mirzayanii Rech. & Esfand. grown wild and cultivated in Iran were determined using Gas Chromatography (GC) and Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS). Forty nine components were identified in the...

BACKGROUND Salvia mirzayanii, a native plant to Iran, is shown to have immunomodulatory effects on lymphocyte proliferation. OBJECTIVE To identify the bioactive immunomodulatory compound(s) present in S. mirzayanii. METHODS The crude extract was fractionated to five fractions in two steps using different solvents. The fractions were subjected to bioassay-guided fractionation. All the fracti...

this study was conducted to investigate the effects of different doses of salvia mirzayanii essential oils on gas production parameters, fermentation characteristics using gas production and dual flow continuous culture system. trearments in the gas production experiment was adding 0, 400, 800, 1200, 1600, 2000, 2400 and 4800 mg/l of salvia mirzayanii essential oils to the media. in the second ...

In this research, the radical scavenging activity and reducing power of the ethyl acetate fraction and subfractions of Salvia mirzayanii (SM) have been investigated. The plant material was initially extracted with ethanol. The fractionation was carried out using liquid-liquid extraction, then the ethyl acetate fraction, which showed the greatest antioxidant activity, was selected. This fraction...

In this study antimicrobial effects of Salivia mirzayanii and Saliva atropatana were evaluated against six gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria by immersion bioautography, cylinder plate and tube dilution methods separately. In bioautography method, essential oils of Salvia mirzayanii and Salvia atropatana were separated on silicagel TLC plates by toluene-ethyl acetate (93-7). In cylander p...

The antimicrobial activity of three Salvia species, i.e. S. santolinifolia, S. hydrangea and S. mirzayanii, essential oils were investigated. The essential oils were obtained from the aerial parts of plants and analyzed by GC-MS. The main constituents of aforementioned species were alpha-pinene (72.4%), beta-pinene (6.6%) and limonene (5.3%); beta-caryophyllene (25.1%), 1,8-cineol (15.2%) and c...
