Agronomic Evaluation and Chemical Characterization of Vahl. over 3 Consecutive Years Cultivated Under Harsh Climatic Conditions in Southeast Spain.

The cultivation of , Spanish sage, makes an important contribution to the economy of many rural areas in Southeastern Spain. This aromatic plant species is characterized by high intraspecific variability, which makes the selection process for the establishment of homogeneous crops difficult. Additionally, imminent climate change threatens to reduce its production, especially when cultivated in drylands.

Agronomic Evaluation and Chemical Characterization of Medik. under the Semiarid Conditions of the Spanish Southeast.

is one of the main rainfed crops of aromatic and medicinal plants produced in Spain. As a global concern, the agronomic productivity of this aromatic crop is also threatened by the consequences of imminent climate change. On this basis, the study of the agronomic production of two drought-tolerant ecotypes, after three years of cultivations practices, constitutes the main objective of the present study.

Polyphenol Extracts from Sage ( Vahl) By-Products as Natural Antioxidants for Pasteurised Chilled Yoghurt Sauce.

Sage by-product extracts (SE) are a valuable source of phenolic acids and flavonoids for food applications. The objective was to test two SE as antioxidants in pasteurised chilled yoghurt sauces against oxidation. Two SE of different polyphenol total content and profile were selected: SE38 (37.

Polyphenolic Profile of Tunisian Thyme ( L.) Post-Distilled Residues: Evaluation of Total Phenolic Content and Phenolic Compounds and Their Contribution to Antioxidant Activity.

During the last decade there has been growing interest in the formulation of new cosmetic, food and pharmaceutical products containing natural compounds with antioxidant activity and other beneficial properties. Aromatic and medicinal plants have always been the major source of bioactive compounds, especially, wild thyme (Thymbra capitata L.), which has been used since ancient times for its valuable health benefits that could be attributed to the richness of polyphenolic compounds.

Extraction and Encapsulation of Phenolic Compounds of Tunisian Rosemary ( L.) Extracts in Silk Fibroin Nanoparticles.

Rosemary ( L.) is known to be an effective potential source of natural antioxidants which confer benefits to human health. Their bioactive properties are mainly due to phenolic compounds but these molecules are highly vulnerable to oxidants, light, heat, pH, water and enzymatic activities.
