Objective: To investigate the extracts and determine its healing and antibacterial effects, and to evaluate the treatment of skin burns.
Methods: Aqueous and ethanolic extracts and topical based on Aleppo pine plant extracts were prepared. Thirty male and female Wistar rats were used to study the cutaneous toxicity of extracts from the bark of . The extracts' healing potential for burn wounds were also assessed by evaluating the clinical and macroscopic aspects of the wounds. The antibacterial activity of crude extracts of as well as its wound healing abilities was verified in this investigation.
Results: In animals with acute dermal toxicity, there were no signs of treatment-related toxicity or death. The extracts of these plants could be transformed into phytomedicines for the treatment of infected wounds. The results demonstrated that formulated ointments are successful in treating second-degree burns in rats and may be suitable for the short-term therapeutic treatment of second-degree burns.
Conclusion: This study successfully answered our problem, regarding the efficacy of our extract for treating second-degree burns in rats. Further studies are needed to confirm these results by identifying the molecules responsible for these activities and examining their mechanism of action.

The soil microbiome plays an important role in forest functioning. However, the impact of drought-induced dieback and tree death on soil microbial biomass, community structure, and functional composition is unknown. We also lack understanding on how soil microbiota varies seasonally in such declining stands.

Article Synopsis
- The Mediterranean region is highly vulnerable to environmental changes, particularly climate change and air pollution, affecting its unique pine forests.
- This study investigates how the chemical composition of precipitation changes when filtered through Aleppo and black pine canopies on the eastern Adriatic coast, revealing increased ion deposition in the throughfall compared to bulk open field deposits.
- Results show that inorganic nitrogen levels in Aleppo pine forests exceeded critical limits, highlighting the need for ongoing research due to the potential impacts on soil and groundwater health in these sensitive ecosystems.
Chemical Characteristic and Sensory Evaluation of Biscuit Prepared from Wheat and Aleppo Pine Seeds Flour.

This study aimed to explore the potential use of Aleppo pine seed flour as a nutritious ingredient in biscuit production. Aleppo pine seed flour was blended with wheat flour to create biscuits with varying proportions: 15%, 30%, and 45% Aleppo pine seed flour. The analysis of the chemical composition of the biscuits revealed that increasing the proportion of Aleppo pine seed flour led to higher levels of protein, fat, and ash, while the carbohydrate content decreased.

The global scientific community is deeply concerned about the deterioration of water quality resulting from the release of industrial effluents. This issue is of utmost importance as it serves to safeguard the environment and combat water pollution. The objective of this work is to elaborate a biomaterial of vegetable origin, based on the twigs of Aleppo pine, and to use it as an abundant and less expensive material for the treatment of wastewater.
