“…Previous chemical studies have been carried out on species of the genus Hertia and allowed the isolation of several chemical compounds. Indeed, five sesquiterpenes were isolated from the essential oils of the aerial part of the species Hertia intermedia namely, β-pinene, α-pinene, α-thujene, β-phellandrene and germacrene D [12]. Another similar study by Afsharypuor et al [13] on the chemical composition of the aerial part of Hertia angustifolia showed that the same compounds were isolated from this plant.…”

The genus Hertia L. contains 12 species distributed all over south and North Africa and Southwest Asia. Some species of these plants are used traditionally for pain of stomach and to reduce hyperglycemia. It has been found that the species belonging to this genus possesses a rich phytochemical content and a wide range of pharmacological activities such as acaricidal, spasmolytic, anti-inflammatory, cytotoxic, anthelmintic, antibacterial, antioxidant effects and α-glucosidase inhibition. In an aim to highlight the importance of Hertia, this study evaluated its phytochemical and pharmacological properties.

The aims of this work are to investigate the chemical composition, the antibacterial activity of the essential oil and the chromosome numbers of two populations of Hertia cheirifolia. The samples were collected in the flowering stage, in eastern Algeria locality. The aerial parts of H. cheirifolia were submitted to a hydro-distillation. GC and GC / MS analysed the chemical compositions of the obtained essential oils. The antibacterial activity of essential oils was evaluated using the disks diffusion method against ten bacterial strains. For karyotypic analysis, the squashing method is used. Fifty-eight compounds representing 98.93% of the total oil were identified in H. cheirifolia. The chemical composition is dominated by the presence of major products, α-pinene (48.49 - 53.85%) and Germacrene-D (2.64 - 12.66%). Two distinct chemical breeds were identified, the α-pinene-spathulenol of Batna population, and the α-pinene-germacrene-D of Setif population. The essential oil of H. cheirifolia has a moderate activity against bacteria tested. In contrast, the strains E. coli ATCC 25922, P. syringae ATCC 53543 and E. fecalis ATCC 49452 are resistant to H. cheirifolia essential oils. The observations of root cells meristematic at metaphase of H. cheirifolia gave a diploid chromosome number 2n = 2x = 20, with a basic chromosome number (x= 10).

This study was conducted to prepare the extract from medicinal plant Hertia intermedia and its evaluation for presence of anticancer activity. The medicinal plant was collected and shade dried then crushed to convert it into powdered form. The powdered form of the plant was soaked for 15 days in an organic solvent methanol (CH3OH). The extract obtained passed through the filtration process followed by vaporization of the residual solvent using rotary evaporator. The methanol extract of Hertia Intermedia was used to prepare different fractions of solvent using aqueous dichloromethane, benzene, butanol, chloroform, ethyl acetate and n-hexane. Methanol extract, aqueous extract, butanol extract and extract of Hertia intermedia did not show any activity against cancerous cell lines. Hertia intermedia did not show any noticeable activity and remains inactive ROS against HeLa cell line, 3T3 cell line, MCF-7 cell line (cancerous cell). Hertia intermedia did not contain any bioactivity against cancerous or reactive oxygen species which is the initiator or producing cancer.
