Journal ArticleDOI

Composition and antimicrobial activity of the essential oils of two Origanum species

TL;DR: The essential oils obtained from the aerial parts of Origanum scabrum and Origaum microphyllum exhibited a very interesting antimicrobial profile after they were tested against six Gram-negative and -positive bacteria and three pathogenic fungi.
Journal ArticleDOI

Liposomal incorporation of carvacrol and thymol isolated from the essential oil of Origanum dictamnus L. and in vitro antimicrobial activity.

TL;DR: The chemical composition of the essential oils from Origanum dictamnus L. (wild and organic cultivated plant) was analysed by GC–MS and the antimicrobial properties of the oils were tested by a diffusion technique against four Gram positive and four Gram negative bacteria and three human pathogenic fungi.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chemical composition and antimicrobial activity of the essential oils of Pistacia lentiscus var. chia.

TL;DR: The chemical composition of the three essential oils obtained by steam distillation of the mastic gum, leaves and twigs of Pistacia lentiscus var.
Journal ArticleDOI

Walnut extract (Juglans regia L.) and its component ellagic acid exhibit anti-inflammatory activity in human aorta endothelial cells and osteoblastic activity in the cell line KS483.

TL;DR: The present results suggest that the walnut extract has a high anti-atherogenic potential and a remarkable osteoblastic activity, an effect mediated, at least in part, by its major component ellagic acid, which implicate the beneficial effect of a walnut-enriched diet on cardioprotection and bone loss.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anti-ageing and rejuvenating effects of quercetin

TL;DR: The existence of naturally occurring anti-ageing products that can be effectively used through topical application are demonstrated and it is shown that these compounds promote physiological alterations when applied to cells (i.e. whitening effect).
