TO USE IN FOOD PRESERVATION PETRUȚ Georgiana, Sevastița MUSTE, Crina MUREȘAN, Andruța Elena MUREȘAN, Romina VLAIC, Simona CHIȘ, Alina STURZA, Anamaria POP* Food Engineering Department, Faculty of Food Science and Technology, University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine Cluj-Napoca, Romania;*Corresponding author, e-mail: [email protected] Abstract: Extending the life of food is of commercial and economic importance. Combining nutritious foods with flavorful spices and herbs is a time honored tradition and a beautiful picture of God's design for the Abundant Life. As one of the most gentle oils, lavender essential oil is a great oil to start with as you learn to cook with essential oils. Its flavor is delicate and floral, excellent for a variety of culinary options. The best extracts, in terms of amount of isolated compounds, flavor quality and stability were those obtained with supercritical CO2 extraction. Extending this cause to cooking with essential oils as well widens our appreciation for creation and all of the goodness available at our fingertips. Keywords: essential oil, food preservation, Lavandula Angustifolia L. Introduction Many of the controversies in the literature regarding the activity of Lavandula oils may indeed be explained by differences in chemical profiles between themvarious lavenders. The composition of Lavandula angustifolia L. essential oil has been comprehensively investigated (An et al. 2001, Bicchi et al. 2000, Chemat et al. 2006, Fakhari et al. 2005, Kim & Lee, 2002; Shellie et al.

Siddiqui, Badruddeen, Usama Ahmad, Farogh Ahsan, Mohd Muazzam Khan, Mohammad Ahamd, Asad Ali Faculty of Pharmacy, Integral University, Dasauli, Kursi Road, Lucknow (U.P.)-226026. Abstract There are various sources of drugs like plants, animals, marine etc. Among all these, plants are the main source of drugs. In pharmaceutical world herbal medicine has a special place. Among medicinal plants Lavandula stoechas of Lamiaceae/Labiatae family is therapeutically very important. The various studies tell that it contains organic, inorganic substances and essential oil. Research is going on its new chemical constituents. Various pharmacological actions of Lavandula stoechas have been described in Unani literature like antiseptic, deobstruent, demulcent, phlegmagogue, nervine tonic, antianxiety, anticonvulsant, in numbness, trembling, mania, amnesia etc. In all traditionally uses of Lavandula stoechas few actions get scientific status like antibacterial, blood purifying, adaptogenic, hypotensive effect, cytotoxic and genotoxic effect, anticonvulsant, sedative, antispasmodic, hypoglycaemic activity, antianxiety etc. but many actions are remain to evaluate.

Academic Editors: Carmen Formisano, Vincenzo De Feo and Filomena Nazzaro Received: 5 March 2020; Accepted: 27 March 2020; Published: 28 March 2020 Abstract: On the basis of the side effects of detrimental synthetic chemicals, introducing healthy, available, and effective bioagents for pest management is critical. Due to this circumstance, several studies have been conducted that evaluate the pesticidal potency of plant-derived essential oils. This review presents the pesticidal efficiency of essential oils isolated from different genera of the Lamiaceae family including Agastache Gronovius, Hyptis Jacquin, Lavandula L., Lepechinia Willdenow, Mentha L., Melissa L., Ocimum L., Origanum L., Perilla L., Perovskia Kar., Phlomis L., Rosmarinus L., Salvia L., Satureja L., Teucrium L., Thymus L., Zataria Boissier, and Zhumeria Rech. Along with acute toxicity, the sublethal effects were illustrated such as repellency, antifeedant activity, and adverse effects on the protein, lipid, and carbohydrate contents, and on the esterase and glutathione S-transferase enzymes. Chemical profiles of the introduced essential oils and the pesticidal effects of their main components have also been documented including terpenes (hydrocarbon monoterpene, monoterpenoid, hydrocarbon sesquiterpene, and sesquiterpenoid) and aliphatic phenylpropanoid.

  • Wildland Urban Interface Approved Plant List
    WILDLAND URBAN INTERFACE APPROVED PLANT LIST This approved plant list has been developed to serve as a tool to determine the placement of vegetation within the Wildland Urban Interface areas. The approved plant list has been compiled from several similar lists which pertain to the San Francisco Bay Area and to the State of California. This approved plant list is not intended to be used outside of the San Mateo County area. The “required distance” for each plant is how far the given plant is required to be from a structure. If a plant within the approved plant list is not provided with a “required distance”, the plant has been designated as a fire-resistant plant and may be placed anywhere within the defensible space area. The designation as a fire-resistant plant does not exempt the plant from other Municipal Codes. For example, as per Hillsborough Municipal Code, all trees crowns, including those that have been designated as fire resistant, are required to be 10 feet in distance from any structure. Fire resistant plants have specific qualities that help slow down the spread of fire, they include but are not limited to: • Leaves tend to be supple, moist and easily crushed • Trees tend to be clean, not bushy, and have little deadwood • Shrubs are low-growing (2’) with minimal dead material • Taller shrubs are clean, not bushy or twiggy • Sap is water-like and typically does not have a strong odor • Most fire-resistant trees are broad leafed deciduous (lose their leaves), but some thick-leaf evergreens are also fire resistant.
