Rumicetum palustris (TIMÁR 1950) W. FISCHER 1978, new plant community from Bidentetea tripartiti R. Tx., LOHM. ET Prsg 1950 class in SW Poland
2016
Natural water reservoirs are very valuable floristic sites in Poland. Among them, the most important for preservation of biodiversity of plant communities are lakes, rivers, oxbow lakes and fishponds. The long-term process of human pressure on habitats of this type caused disturbance to their biological balance. Changes in the water regime, industrial development and chemisation of agriculture, especially in the period of last two hundred years, led to systematic disappearance of localities of many plant communities. Rumicetum palustris (Timár 1950) W. Fischer 1978, of Bidentetea tripartiti R. Tx., Lohm. et Prsg 1950 class, has been described for the first time in Hungary and Germany. This …
Gnaphalio uliginosi-eleocharitetum acicularis Passarge 1999, new plant community in Poland
2017
Zbiorniki wodne są bardzo cennymi miejscami florystycznymi w Polsce. Wśród nich najważniejsze dla zachowania różnorodności biologicznej flory są stawy rybne. Długookresowy proces oddziaływania ludzkiego na tego typu siedliska powodował zakłócenia w ich równowadze biologicznej. Zmiany w systemie wodnym, rozwój przemysłowy i chemizacja rolnictwa, zwłaszcza w okresie ostatnich dwóch stuleci, doprowadziły do zaniku wielu gatunków roślin oraz zbiorowisk roślinnych. Zespół Gnaphalio uliginosi-Eleocharitetum acicularis Passarge 1999 z klasy Isoëto-Nanojuncetea Br.-Bl. et Tx. 1943, po raz pierwszy został opisany w Niemczech. Rośnie na piaszczystych lub mulistych brzegach rzek, starorzeczach i w sta…
Quality Control for Medicinal Plants
2012
The scientific basis of evidence-based medicine is still poor in herbal medicine. For the integration of herbal medicine into western medicine, internationally accepted standards are necessitated, including quality control of herbal products as well as preclinical and clinical evidence of safety and efficacy. In recent years, thriving innovative technologies emerged in phytotherapy research, e.g. DNA-based technologies for the authentication of plant species, good practice guidelines for standardized experimentations. High-quality herbal materials should undergo rigorous examination by analytical techniques for chemoprofiling of medicinal herbs, as well as toxicological methods to detect co…
Extraction Methods of Essential Oils From Herbs and Spices
2017
International audience; This chapter describes both conventional and non‐conventional extraction methods of essential oils (EOs) from herbs and spices. Although hydrodistillation, steam distillation and solvent extraction are the most applied methods, several non‐conventional technologies have been evaluated, especially in respect to EO recovery, and a great potential has been attributed to these non‐conventional methods. For instance, ultrasound, microwave, supercritical fluid, pulsed electric fields, ohmic‐heating and microwave (MW) extraction techniques applied alone or combined with other techniques are potent tools to obtain EOs in a 'green' way from natural resources such as aromatic …
Doslidžennâ bìologìčnoï aktivnostìvtorinnogo ekstraktu zì šrotu travimaterinki zvičajnoï (Origanum vulgare)
2015
Studied the antimicrobial activity of secondary extract from oregano herbs waste (Origanum vulgare)against 7 standard test strains of microrganisms. Minimum bactericidal concentration of the extract to Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538 P-is 3.125-6.25 mg/ml and 6.25-12.5 mg/ml to gram-negative bacteria and Candida albicans ATCC 10231.Total antioxidant activity determined by DPPH, secondary extract at a concentration of 400 ug/ml was 92 %. The tested extract had photoprotective activity. Obtained results confirm the perspective of using waste of oregano herbs for making extracts and creation on their basis of pharmaceuticals, veterinary drugs and cosmetics.
Zanieczyszczenie metalami ciężkimi Matricaria chamomilla L. i Plantago lanceolata L
2019
Celem badań była ocena zanieczyszczenia metalami ciężkimi (Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd i Pb) rumianku lekarskiego (Matricaria chamomilla L.) i babki lancetowatej (Plantago lanceolata L.). W ramach biomonitoringu pasywnego pobrano próbki roślin leczniczych oraz próbki gleby, na której rosły rośliny. Metale ciężkie oznaczono za pomocą absorpcyjnej spektrometrii atomowej (AAS). Na podstawie przeprowadzonych badań można stwierdzić, że zioła wykorzystane do badań różniły się pod względem stężeń metali ciężkich w zależności od miejsca ich pobierania. Wszystkie próbki ziół były zanieczyszczone wysokimi stężeniami manganu, żelaza oraz cynku. Badane próbki gleb z grupy B i C według rozporządzenia ministr…
