mentha requienii/カリウム

The effect of Mentha longifolia (L.) leaf hydroalcoholic extract (MLE) was examined on rat ileal smooth muscle contractions. Last portion of ileum from male adult Wistar rat was mounted in an organ bath containing Tyrode solution. The tissue was contracted by carbachol (CCh, 10 microM), KCl (60 mM)

The present study evaluated the physicochemical characteristics and antioxidant activity of 13 commercial honeys from diverse floral origin, produced in Portugal. The values of electrical conductivity of cardoon and pennyroyal honeys were superior to the maximum limits defined by European

Marginal water, including saline water, has been proposed as an alternative source of irrigation water for partially covering plant water requirements due to scarcity of adequate water supply in hot arid and semi-arid areas, such as those usually found in the Mediterranean basin. In the present

The leaf spot disease of Mentha arvensis, caused by Alternaria alternata, is a devastating foliar disease worldwide and leads to considerable economic losses. In this investigation, 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) was used to identify the membrane proteins potentially involved in M.

Antioxidant compounds are abundantly available in plants and play an important role in scavenging free radicals, thus providing protection to humans against oxidative DNA damage. Mentha spicata Linn., commonly called spearmint, belongs to the family lamiaceae. It was selected in the present study

Recently, we showed that intravenous (i.v.) treatment with the essential oil of Mentha x villosa (EOMV) in pentobarbitone-anaesthetised rats decreased blood pressure; the effect occurred independently of the presence of an operational central autonomic drive to the cardiovascular system. This

The phenolic composition of hydroethanolic extracts of Mentha aquatica L., Lavandula dentata L. and Leonurus cardiaca L., obtained from plants grown under organic cultivation, was determined and their hepatoprotective effects were investigated in vitro. L. cardiaca
