Schmitz1 and Vera L. S. Valente2 1 Universidade Federal da Integração-Latino-Americana, Foz do Iguaçu, PR, Brazil; [email protected] 2 Programa de Pós-Graduação em Genética e Biologia Molecular, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Porto Alegre, RS, Brazil; [email protected] Abstract Diptera is a megadiverse order, reaching its peak of diversity in Neotropics, although our knowledge of dipteran fauna of this region is grossly deficient. This applies even for the most studied families, as Drosophilidae. Despite its position of evidence, most aspects of the biology of these insects are still poorly understood, especially those linked to natural communities. Field studies on drosophilids are highly biased to fruit-breeders species. Flower-breeding drosophilids, however, are worldwide distributed, especially in tropical regions, although being mostly neglected. The present paper shows results of a biodiversity inventory of flower-breeding drosophilids carried out in Brazil, based on samples of 125 plant species, from 47 families. Drosophilids were found in flowers of 56 plant species, of 18 families. The fauna discovered showed to be highly unknown, comprising 28 species, 12 of them (>40%) still undescribed.

  • Preservative Effects of Thymus Citriodorus and Rosmarinus Officinalis Volatile Oils on Prolonging Shelf Life of Raw Chicken
    IOSR Journal of Environmental Science, Toxicology and Food Technology (IOSR-JESTFT) e-ISSN: 2319-2402,p- ISSN: 2319-2399.Volume 10, Issue 6 Ver. II (Jun. 2016), PP 63-68 www.iosrjournals.org Preservative Effects of Thymus Citriodorus and Rosmarinus Officinalis Volatile Oils on Prolonging Shelf Life of Raw Chicken Dara M. Jamil1 Faculty of Agricultural Sciences-Sulaimani University, Bakrajo Street, Sulaimaniyah - Iraq Abstract: The volatile oils of Rosemarinus Officinalis (rosemary) and Thymus citriodorus (Lemon thyme) at different concentration (0.1, 0.25, and 0.5) % were used to examine their preservation impacts on raw chicken.). Chicken pieces were immersed in ethanolic solutions (10 %) of the volatile oils of rosemary and lemon thyme for 30 minutes stored in (30oC) and in a fridge (4oC.After the first day, control samples were found completely putrefied, whereas samples treated with VOs (0.25 and 0.5 %) were found with acceptable organoleptic attributes and significant microbial prohibition for five days at (30oC) and for 10 days in the fridge (4oC). It can be concluded that beside their desirable flavours, the herbal VOs used can be considered as a natural preservative to prolong shelf life of raw poultry and this could have an economical potential on raw chickens at industrial level. Keywords: Food preservation, raw chicken, Rosmarinus Officinalis, Thymus citriodorus, Volatile oil I. “Introduction” Raw meats (cattle, poultry and sea foods) are known as perishable foods because they are ideal mediums for microbial growth, so they get spoiled and/or poisoned in storage unless they are freshly consumed or preserved, thus a number of preservation techniques, including freezing, heat treatment, salting, acidification, and drying have been used in the food industry [1] and [2].

  • Atoll Research Bulletin No. 503 the Vascular Plants Of
    ATOLL RESEARCH BULLETIN NO. 503 THE VASCULAR PLANTS OF MAJURO ATOLL, REPUBLIC OF THE MARSHALL ISLANDS BY NANCY VANDER VELDE ISSUED BY NATIONAL MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION WASHINGTON, D.C., U.S.A. AUGUST 2003 Uliga Figure 1. Majuro Atoll THE VASCULAR PLANTS OF MAJURO ATOLL, REPUBLIC OF THE MARSHALL ISLANDS ABSTRACT Majuro Atoll has been a center of activity for the Marshall Islands since 1944 and is now the major population center and port of entry for the country. Previous to the accompanying study, no thorough documentation has been made of the vascular plants of Majuro Atoll. There were only reports that were either part of much larger discussions on the entire Micronesian region or the Marshall Islands as a whole, and were of a very limited scope. Previous reports by Fosberg, Sachet & Oliver (1979, 1982, 1987) presented only 115 vascular plants on Majuro Atoll. In this study, 563 vascular plants have been recorded on Majuro. INTRODUCTION The accompanying report presents a complete flora of Majuro Atoll, which has never been done before. It includes a listing of all species, notation as to origin (i.e. indigenous, aboriginal introduction, recent introduction), as well as the original range of each. The major synonyms are also listed. For almost all, English common names are presented. Marshallese names are given, where these were found, and spelled according to the current spelling system, aside from limitations in diacritic markings. A brief notation of location is given for many of the species. The entire list of 563 plants is provided to give the people a means of gaining a better understanding of the nature of the plants of Majuro Atoll.

Essential oils are complex mixtures of volatile compounds that are obtained from botanical material, specifically from aromatic plants. Lamiaceae is one of the most important families in the production of essential oils, as it has both antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. The essential oils of Mentha (the Lamiaceae family) have been extensively studied for their biological actions. In this review, we report the antioxidant, antifungal, antibiofilm, and cytotoxic properties of Mentha spp. essential oils. The first objective is to provide comprehensive information about the use of essential oils in the treatment of fungal infections, or as antioxidants and integrative anticancer therapy. The second is to explore the evidence supporting its effectiveness in treating diseases without causing any serious adverse reactions. Keywords: essential oil; Mentha spp.; antioxidant; antifungal; antibiofilm; toxicity 1. Introduction Plant essential oils (EOs) are produced predominantly using steam distillation, but can also be generated using fermentation, crushing, extraction, hydrolysis, and airing [1].

In this study, the supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) using pure CO2, and the ultrasound assisted extraction (UAE) were proposed as green techniques Citation: Villalva, M.; Santoyo, S.; to obtain plant-based extracts with potential antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. Higher Salas-Pérez, L.; Siles-Sánchez, values of total phenolic content and antioxidant activity were achieved in UAE ethanol:water (50:50, M.d.l.N.; Rodríguez García-Risco, M.; v/v) extracts.

  • Contribución Al Estudio Morfológico Y Anatómico En Nuculas De Mentha L
    Acta Botanica Malacitana 28: 59-71 Málaga, 2003 CONTRIBUCIÓN AL ESTUDIO MORFOLÓGICO Y ANATÓMICO EN NUCULAS DE MENTHA L. Y PRESLIA OPIZ (LAMIACEAE) DE LA PENÍNSULA IBÉRICA M a Angeles MARTÍN MOSQUERO, Julio PASTOR y Rocío JUAN RESUMEN. Contribución al estudio morfológico y anatómico en miculas de Mentha L. y Preslia Opiz (Latniacecte) de lo Península Ibérica. Se estudia la micromorfología y anatomía de núculas de tres especies de Mentha (M. aquatica L, M. suaveolens Ehrh., M. pulegium L.) y de Preslia cervina (L.) Fresen, tanto al microscopio óptico (M.O.) como al microscopio electrónico de barrido (M.E.B.). Desde un punto de vista morfológico, la diferencia principal entre ambos géneros ha sido la ornamentación de las núculas, siendo más o menos reticulada en Mentha y rugosa en Preslia. Anatómicamente, hay que destacar cl grosor del pericarpo, que es bastante menor en Preslia. No obstante, el conjunto de caracteres estudiados pone de manifiesto la afinidad de estos géneros. Por último, se comenta brevemente los sistemas de dispersión más frecuentes en estos géneros. Palabras clave. Núcula, morfología, anatomía, mucílago, Mentha, Preslia, Lamiaceae, Península Ibérica. ABSTRACT. Contribution to morphological and anatomical studies on nut/es of Mentha L. and Preslia Opiz (Lamiaceae) from the Iberia'? Peninsula. A morphological and anatomical study on nutlets of three species of Mentha (M. aquatica L, M. suaveolens Ehrh., M. pulegium L.) and Preslia cervina (L.) Fresen, was carried out using light and scanning electron microscopy. From a morphological point of view the main difference between both genera has been the nutlets' ornamentation, being more or less reticulate in Mentha and rugose in Preslia.
