abstract angelica archangelica, tanacetum cinerariaefolium and chelidonium majus are valuable medicinal plants for which there is no comprehensive information about their seed germination in review of literatures. with regarding of the importance of simple propagation of medicinal plants and the role of seed in production of these plants, this study was set out in order to analyzing of the effe...

The genus Tanacetum belongs to family Asteraceae or Compositae. Literature review revealed that Tanacetum species have been used as remedies in traditional medicine since ancient times throughout the world. The literature review of photochemical studies on different Tanacetum species had revealed the presence of large number of chemical constituents. The essential oil from Tanacetum species con...

INTRODUCTION Tanacetum sonbolii (Asteraceae) is an endemic species in Iran. In the present study, we examined the effects of Tanacetum sonbolii hydroalcoholic extract on the formalin test in mice. METHODS 126 Swiss albino mice weighing 230-280g were used as subjects. The formalin test was performed on two control groups (marked as intact and saline groups; n = 6 in each group) and an experime...

in southeast asia, aedes aegypti (l.) has been incriminated as principal vector of dengue viruses and ae. albopictus as the secondary vector of dengue fever. therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of three for-mula tions of pyrethrin derived from tanacetum cinerariaefolium against the dengue/dengue haemorrhagic fever vectors aedes aegypti and ae. albopictus in the...

Chrysanthemyl diphosphate synthase (CPPase) catalyzes the condensation of two molecules of dimethylallyl diphosphate to produce chrysanthemyl diphosphate (CPP), a monoterpene with a non-head-to-tail or irregular c1'-2-3 linkage between isoprenoid units. Irregular monoterpenes are common in Chrysanthemum cinerariaefolium and related members of the Asteraceae family. In C. cinerariaefolium, CPP i...

Objectives Tanacetum species are traditionally used as insecticide, and externally wound healer as well as for anti-inflammatory and antihistaminic properties. The in vivo wound-healing and anti-inflammatory potential of four Tanacetum species, Tanacetum argenteum (Lam.) Willd. subsp. argenteum (TA), Tanacetum heterotomum (Bornm.) Grierson (TH), Tanacetum densum (Lab.) Schultz Bip. subsp. sivas...

The use of herbs to treat disease is accompanied with the history of human life. This research is aimed to study the antiinflammatory and antinociceptive effects of hydroalcoholic extract of aerial parts of "Tanacetum balsamita balsamita". In the experimental studies 144 male mice are used. In the inflammatory test, animals were divided into six groups: Control, positive control (receiving Dexa...

Purpose: The present investigation describes the biosynthesis of Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using Tanacetum vulgare leaf extract by an environmental-friendly method. Also, the in-vitro cytotoxicity of synthesized AgNPs towards the human breast cancer (MCF-7) cell lines. Methods: Ag NPs were prepared from AgNO3 using Tanacetum vulgare leaf extract polyphenols as reducing and capping agent. Fur...

We investigated the possibility of use of Tanacetum vulgare (tansy) as an ecological indicator of metal concentration in a naturally colonized open-pit lignite mine in Bełchatów (Poland). Tanacetum vulgare is the only species growing abundantly and spontaneously in the lignite mine waste dumps. Metal concentrations in roots, stems, leaves, flowers, and soil were measured in dump sites differing...

Tanacetum santolinoides, Essential Oil Composition, n-Hexane-Ether Extract Composition The essential oil of the aerial parts of Tanacetum santolinoides was analyzed by capillary GLC and GLC-MS. Altogether 30 components were identified. The main constituents were thymol (18%), trans-thujone (17.5%), trans-chrysanthenyl acetate (13.2%), cis-chrysanthenyl acetate (9.2%), umbellulone (9.7%) and 1,8...
