“…Among plants subjected to the impact of NPs, special attention is deserved for plants with beneficial properties used for food and medicinal purposes. Among such plants, one that has to be highlighted is curly parsley (Petroselinum crispum), a commercially important culinary herb known for its medicinal properties and essential oil [24]. The leaves and roots of parsley are important components of medicinal preparations, while the essential oil of parsley has become broadly popular because of its medicinal, cosmetic, condiment, and preservative properties [24,25].…”

The leaves and roots of parsley are important components of medicinal preparations, while the essential oil of parsley has become broadly popular because of its medicinal, cosmetic, condiment, and preservative properties [24,25]. Parsley segments are used for the treatment of gastrointestinal tract, kidneys, and urinary tract diseases, aid the treatment of diabetes, reduce internal inflammatory processes, and promote liver cleansing.…”

The application of metal nanoparticles in industry and medicine results in their release into the environment, which can have a negative impact on human health. The effects of gold (AuNPs) and copper (CuNPs) nanoparticles at the concentration range of 1–200 mg/L on parsley (Petroselinum crispum) under conditions of root exposure and their translocation in roots and leaves were investigated in a 10-day experiment. The content of copper and gold in soil and plant segments was determined using ICP-OES and ICP-MS techniques, while the morphology of nanoparticles was analyzed using transmission electron microscopy. Differences in the nanoparticle uptake and translocation were observed: CuNPs mainly accumulated in soil (4.4–465 mg/kg), while accumulation in the leaves were at the control level. AuNPs mainly accumulated in soil (0.04–108 mg/kg), followed by roots (0.05–45 mg/kg) and leaves (0.16–53 mg/kg). The influence of AuNPs and CuNPs on the biochemical parameters of parsley was on the content of carotenoids, the levels of chlorophyll, and antioxidant activity. Application of CuNPs even at the lowest concentration led to a significant reduction in carotenoids and total chlorophyll content. AuNPs at low concentrations promoted an increase in the content of carotenoids; however, they also significantly reduced it at concentrations higher than 10 mg/L. To our knowledge, this is the first study of the effect of metal nanoparticles on parsley.

“…However, Gruszecki [11] found a low content of 1,3,8-p-menthatriene in leaves harvested for the entire summer (VI-VII) and a high content of α-pinene, p-cymenene, β-myrcene, β-phellandrene, and β-pinene. According to other studies, apiol may also be an essential component of parsley leaf essential oil [41,43,44]. The varied composition of the essential oils obtained from the roots and leaves may prove that the plant can modify the essential oil components depending on the specificity of the plant's organs (storage and assimilation) and the occurrence of stress.…”

The quality of turnip-rooted parsley (Petroselinum crispum var. tuberosum) as a seasoning ingredient depends on the content and composition of the essential oil. The content of essential oil is influenced by many factors, the main of which are genetic variations and environmental conditions. The presented work presents for the first time a comparison of such numerous cultivars of root parsley in terms of the essential oil content in both the roots and the leaves. The experiment compared the content and composition of the essential oils of fifteen parsley cultivars in two growing seasons. The essential oil was obtained by the hydrodistillation method, and the composition analysis was performed using the GC/MS technique. The essential oil content in parsley roots ranged from 0.013 to 0.045 mL 100 g−1 FW, while in leaves, it was within the range of 0.041–0.121 mL 100 g−1 FW. The leaf essential oil yield was also higher than the roots, proving that parsley leaves are a valuable spice and should not be treated as a waste product as before. It was observed in the research that the content of essential oils changed significantly due to the weather conditions in the analysed growing seasons; however, some cultivars, such as ‘Kinga’, ‘Eagle’, and ‘Berlińska PNE’, had a stable content of essential oils in the analysed period. The dominant component of the essential oils obtained from the roots of all cultivars was apiol. However, in the case of the essential oils obtained from the leaves, the main ingredients were myristicin, β-pinene, Z-falcarinol, and β-phellandrene, but their content was highly varied depending on the weather conditions in the analysed growing seasons.
