Anti-inflammatory Properties of the Genus L.: A Review.

The genus has been mainly used in traditional medicine, containing its anti-inflammatory activity. spp.'s active components, such as allantoin, polyphenols, flavonoids, and alkaloids, can act on several intentions in the signaling pathway, constrain pro-inflammatory enzymes, reducing the construction of inflammatory chemokine's and cytokines, and decreasing oxidative stress, which afterward suppresses inflammation procedures.

Nanoencapsulation of n-butanol extract of and : Focus on phytochemical analysis, anti-oxidant and antibacterial activity.

Objectives: The current study's objectives were to obtain different extracts and essential oils of and and to determine the chemical composition, as well as to evaluate free radical scavenging activity (IC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC), and the effect of liposomal formulation on antimicrobial properties.

Materials And Methods: Air-dried powdered aerial parts of and were used. The antioxidant and antibacterial properties, essential oil compositions, total phenol, and flavonoid contents of different fractions were determined by DPPH test, disk diffusion assay, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, Folin-ciocalteu reagent, and colorimetric assay method, respectively.
