Journal ArticleDOI

Medicinal halophytes: potent source of health promoting biomolecules with medical, nutraceutical and food applications.

TL;DR: This contribution focuses on the ethnopharmacological uses of halophytes in traditional medicine and reviews recent investigations on their biological activities and nutraceuticals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of the edible medicinal halophyte Tamarix gallica L. and related polyphenolic constituents

TL;DR: The findings suggest that Tamarix may be considered as an interesting source of antioxidants for therapeutic or nutraceutical industries and for food manufactures.
Journal ArticleDOI

High sugar content of extracts interferes with colorimetric determination of amino acids and free proline.

TL;DR: Elimination of carbohydrate interference makes this procedure applicable to crude extracts from various food products such as fruits and plants that accumulate soluble carbohydrates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Partitioning and mobilization of starch and N reserves in grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.).

TL;DR: Results indicate that the spring growth period can be divided into three main phases: in the first (dormancy to budbreak), significant losses of C and N proceed mainly via root necrosis, while in the second period (first leaf to the onset of bloom), a strong mobilization of starch occurred for supporting vegetative and reproductive growth.
Journal ArticleDOI

Radical scavenging, antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of halophytic species.

TL;DR: For the first time, both antioxidant and antimicrobial activities are simultaneously reported in halophytic plants, particularly on polar fractions, including Eryngium maritimum, which presented the weakest radical scavenging activity and total phenol content.
