Evaluation of antimicrobial and anticancer activity of Rosemary Rosmarinus oficinalis leaves extracts on pathogenic bacteria and cancer cell lines

“…Rosemary extract may be a good candidate for functional food as well as pharmaceutical plant-based product [21]. The inhibition zones obtained by our experiments were comparable with standard inhibition zones recorded for antibiotics to standard strains [8]. The antioxidant activity of tow extracts referred to its different polyphenolic compositions that were evaluated in methanolic system that clearly suggest as expellant antioxidant [1].…”

Subacute Effects of Standardized F umaria Vaillantii Lois. Ethanol Extract on Trace Element Levels, Biochemical and Histopathological Parameters in Experimental Liver Toxicity

“…In the same study, the levels of p-coumaric acid, ferulic acid, quercetin, apigenin and kaempferol were determined in five Fumaria species; on the contrary, they were not detected in our sample (Ivanov et al 2014). Sousek et al (1999) detected the presence of fumaric, malic, citric and caffeic acids in the aerial parts of F. vaillantii using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry technique (Sousek et al 1999). In our study, chlorogenic acid was first determined in F. vaillantii aerial parts.…”

Biofabrication of platinum nanoparticles using Fumariae herba extract and their catalytic properties

“…These findings are supported by some previous reports that evaluated the profile of compounds (such as alkaloids, flavonoid compounds and phenolic acids) present in F. herba extract. It has been shown that F. herb contains free phenolic acids such as p-coumaric acid, sinapic acid (Ivanov et al, 2014), ferulic acid (Soušek et al, 1999), caffeic acid (Bradley, 1992, Ivanov et al, 2014, Soušek et al, 1999) and chlorogenic acid (Bradley, 1992, Soušek et al, 1999). The biological activities of Fumariae herba are mainly associated with the presence of isoquinoline alkaloids.…”
