Chemical Profiling, Insecticidal, and Phytotoxic Effect of Essential Oils from Leaves and Inflorescence of Moroccan (L.).

(L.) is a medicinal and aromatic plant widely used in the Moroccan traditional medicine for its important pharmacological properties. In order to contribute to the valorization of this plant, the current study aimed at evaluating, for the first time, the variation in the yield, chemical composition, and insecticidal and phytotoxic activities of essential oil (CAEO) isolated from leaves and inflorescences.

New insight into antimicrobial activities of Linaria ventricosa essential oil and its synergetic effect with conventional antibiotics.

The purpose of the present study was to determine for the first time the volatile constituents, the antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of the essential oil (EO) of the endemic Moroccan Linaria ventricosa, alone or in combination with four known antibiotics. The major constituents were 2-methoxy-4-vinylphenol (17.4%), α-terpinene (13.

Seaweed Essential Oils as a New Source of Bioactive Compounds for Cyanobacteria Growth Control: Innovative Ecological Biocontrol Approach.

The application of natural compounds extracted from seaweeds is a promising eco-friendly alternative solution for harmful algae control in aquatic ecosystems. In the present study, the anti-cyanobacterial activity of three Moroccan marine macroalgae essential oils (EOs) was tested and evaluated on unicellular cyanobacterium. Additionally, the possible anti-cyanobacterial response mechanisms were investigated by analyzing the antioxidant enzyme activities of cells.

A Comparative Study of the in Vitro Antimicrobial and Synergistic Effect of Essential Oils from L. and L. from Morocco with Antimicrobial Drugs: New Approach for Health Promoting Products.

L. (laurel, Lauraceae) and L. (apricot, Rosaceae) are important industrial crops and display significant biological properties, including antimicrobial activity.

Chemical Characterization and Biological Activities of Essential Oil Obtained from Mint Timija Cultivated under Mineral and Biological Fertilizers.

Cultivation of mint timija ( subsp. (Briq.) Harley) constitutes a promising solution to the conservation and sustainable utilization of this Moroccan endemic and threatened species.

Chemical characterization and insecticidal properties of essential oils from different wild populations of Mentha suaveolens subsp. timija (Briq.) Harley from Morocco.

The present study is the first investigation of the volatile-oil variability and insecticidal properties of the endemic Moroccan mint Mentha suaveolens subsp. timija (mint timija). The yield of essential oils (EOs) obtained from different wild mint timija populations ranged from 0.

Comparative evaluation of antioxidant and insecticidal properties of essential oils from five Moroccan aromatic herbs.

This study describes the antioxidant and insecticidal activities of essential oils (EOs) of Mentha suaveolens subsp. timija, Thymus satureioides, Achillea ageratum, Cotula cinerea and Salvia officinalis widely used in Morocco as flavorings, food additives and preservatives. Sixty seven components were identified accounting for more than 95.

Insecticidal properties and chemical composition of essential oils of some aromatic herbs from Morocco.

The essential oils (EOs) of Artemisia herba alba, Rutachalepensis and Satureja calamintha aerial parts were analysed by GC/MS and the EOs were tested for their toxicity against two flour beetles, Tribolium castaneum and Tribolium confusum. EO composition showed that the major compounds were pulegone, menthone and menthol for S. calamintha, camphor and β-thujone for A.

Essential oil composition and antimicrobial activity of wild and cultivated mint timija (Mentha suaveolens subsp. timija (Briq.) Harley), an endemic and threatened medicinal species in Morocco.

The hydro-distilled essential oils obtained from aerial parts of the wild (w) and cultivated (c) mint timija (Mentha suaveolens subsp. timija), an endemic medicinal species of Morocco, have been analyzed by GC-MS and screened for antimicrobial activity. In total, 35 compounds representing more than 98% of the oils were identified.
