  • Ruta Graveolens L. Essential Oil Composition Under Different Nutritional Treatments
    American-Eurasian J. Agric. & Environ. Sci., 13 (10): 1390-1395, 2013 ISSN 1818-6769 © IDOSI Publications, 2013 DOI: 10.5829/idosi.aejaes.2013.13.10.11248 Ruta graveolens L. Essential Oil Composition under Different Nutritional Treatments 12Afaq Ahmad Malik, Showkat R. Mir and 1Javed Ahmad 1Department of Botany, Jamia Hamdard, New Delhi 110062, India 2Department of Pharmacognosy and Phytochemistry, Jamia Hamdard, New Delhi 110 062, India Abstract: The use of un-exploited organic industrial by-products and municipal wastes as soil organic amendment has an economic value and environmental interest. However, little is known about their effectiveness on medicinal plants cultivation. An experiment was conducted in this regard to assess the impact of farmyard manure (FYM), composted sugarcane pressmud (CPM) and sewage sludge biosolid (SSB) on volatile oil composition of Ruta graveolens L., an important aromatic medicinal herb used frequently in Unani system of medicine in India. Volatile oil in the aerial parts of the plant was isolated by hydro-distillation and analyzed by GC-MS. Hydro-distillation of untreated (control) plants yielded 0.32% essential oil on fresh weight basis. The predominant components in the essential oil were n-Hex-4-en-3-one (55.06%), n-Pent-3-one (28.17%), n-Hex-3-en-2-one (14.07%) and n-Hex-5-en-3-one (0.67%). Essential oil obtained from plants treated with FYM amounted to 0.36% of fresh weight and consisted mainly of n-Hex-4-en-3-one (53.64%), n-Pent-3-one (37.82%) and n-Hex-3-en-2-one (7.22%).

    Pennyroyal: MedlinePlus Supplements 18/06/14 13:42 Pennyroyal URL of this page: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/natural/480.html What is it? Pennyroyal is a plant. The oil and leaves are used to make medicine. Throughout history, both American pennyroyal and European pennyroyal have been used interchangeably as a source of oil. Despite serious safety concerns, pennyroyal is used for colds, pneumonia, and other breathing problems. It is also used for stomach pains, gas, intestinal disorders, and liver and gallbladder problems. Women use it to start or regulate their menstrual periods, or to cause an abortion. Pennyroyal is also used to control muscle spasms, cause sweating, and increase urine production. Some people use it as a stimulant and to counteract weakness. Pennyroyal is applied to the skin to kill germs, keep insects away, and treat skin diseases. It is also used topically for gout, venomous bites, and mouth sores; and as a flea-killing bath. In foods, pennyroyal is used for flavoring. In manufacturing, pennyroyal oil is used as a dog and cat flea repellent; and as a fragrance for detergents, perfumes, and soaps. How effective is it? Natural Medicines Comprehensive Database rates effectiveness based on scientific evidence according to the following scale: Effective, Likely Effective, Possibly Effective, Possibly Ineffective, Likely Ineffective, Ineffective, and Insufficient Evidence to Rate. The effectiveness ratings for PENNYROYAL are as follows: Insufficient evidence to rate effectiveness for... Causing abortion.

  • Physiological Responses of Ocimum Basilicum, Salvia Officinalis, And
    plants Article Physiological Responses of Ocimum basilicum, Salvia officinalis, and Mentha piperita to Leaf Wounding Konstantinos Vrakas, Efterpi Florou, Athanasios Koulopoulos and George Zervoudakis * Department of Agriculture, University of Patras, Terma Theodoropoulou, 27200 Amaliada, Greece; [email protected] (K.V.); evtefl[email protected] (E.F.); [email protected] (A.K.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: The investigation about the leaf wounding effect on plant physiological procedures and on leaf pigments content will contribute to the understanding of the plants’ responses against this abiotic stress. During the experiment, some physiological parameters such as photosynthesis, transpiration and stomatal conductance as well as the chlorophyll and anthocyanin leaf contents of Ocimum basilicum, Salvia officinalis, and Mentha piperita plants were measured for about 20–40 days. All the measurements were conducted on control and wounded plants while in the latter, they were conducted on both wounded and intact leaves. A wide range of responses was observed in the wounded leaves, that is: (a) immediate decrease of the gas exchange parameters and long-term decrease of almost all the measured variables from O. basilicum, (b) immediate but only short-term decrease of the gas exchange parameters and no effect on pigments from M. piperita, and (c) no effect on the gas exchange parameters and decrease of the pigments content from S. officinalis. Regarding the intact leaves, in general, they exhibited a similar profile with the control ones for all plants. These results imply that the plant response to wounding is a complex phenomenon depending on plant species and the severity of the injury.

In Mexico, more than 250 species with edible stems, leaves, vines and flowers, known as “quelites,” are collected or are cultivated and consumed. The assessment of the quelite composition depends on the chemical characteristics of the compounds being evaluated; the protein quality is a direct function of the amino acid content, which is evaluated by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and the contribution of minerals is evaluated by atomic absorption spectrometry, inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) or ICP mass spectrometry. The total contents of phenols, flavonoids, carotenoids, saponins and other general compounds have been analyzed using UV-vis spectrophotometry and by HPLC.
