The aim of this work was to determine (i) the antioxidant capacity of Thymus moroderi, Thymus piperella, Santolina chamaecyparissus, and Sideritis angustifolia essential oils (EOs) by means of four different antioxidant tests (the 2,2'-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging method, the ferrous
The antifungal properties of 12 Eos, that is, Syzygium aromaticum, Pelargonium graveolens, Lavandula angustifolia, Cupresus sempervirens, Mentha piperita, Santolina chamaecyparissus, Citrus sinensis, Pogostemon patchouli, Thymus mastichina, Thymus vulgaris, Eucalyptus globulus and Rosmarinus
The antimicrobial properties of essential oil from various Santolina species have not been investigated enough in the previous studies dealing with the biological activities of medicinal plants. In Tunisia, Santolina chamaecyparissus L. (Asteraceae) is the only Santolina species recorded and is used
Methanol and aqueous extracts of Artemisia verlotorum and Santolina etrusca were screened in vitro against Saprolegnia ferax and for all extracts the MIC were determined. Screening was performed also on two fractions of the aqueous extracts.
