The current study aimed to evaluate the phytochemical composition, quality control, and antioxidant, antibacterial, antifungal, antihyperglycemic activities, toxicity assessment of Crataegus monogyna Jacq (C. monogyna) laciniata Ucria laciniata) fruits aqueous extracts. control plant material revealed that it is free heavy metals acidity ash parameters comply with international standards. HPLC-DAD analysis presence eight phenolic compounds in C. extract nine extract, coumaric acid present only extract. According findings, both extracts are high total polyphenols, flavonoids, condensed tannins. results antioxidant activity our have significant effects against 2, 2-diphényl 1-picrylhydrazyle (DPPH), Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power (FRAP). antibacterial test two tested were effective four bacterial strains, including Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Enterobacter cloacae, Shigella dysenteria, but ineffective Salmonella typhi, Acinetobacter baumanii. In addition, from plants showed remarkable no acute toxicity. conclusion, studied could be a good source bioactive molecules antimicrobial, anti-diabetic for pharmaceutical applications.

Petroselinum crispum (Mill.) Fuss (Apiaceae), popularly known as parsley, is a ubiquitous aromatic herb used for culinary and medicinal purposes worldwide. In addition to the richness in nutrients, several bioactive secondary metabolites, especially flavone apigenin its glycosides, have been described this species. Parsley has already shown health-promoting activities, such antithrombotic, antihypertensive, hypolipidemic properties. The multiple studies conducted animal models so far suggest species potential source of cardioprotective agents. This review provides up-to-date information perspectives on parsley compounds development nutraceutical products drugs promoting cardiovascular health. It includes not only discussion parsley’s reported bioactivities but also knowledge supplements food additives developed innovative parsley-based products.

Medicinal plants represent an inexhaustible source of traditional and effective remedies thanks to the various active ingredients they contain. Secondary metabolites present in plant extracts, such as essential oils (EO), have remarkable pharmacological properties, including antimicrobial effects. Here, chemical composition effects four Moroccan medicinal plants, Rosmarinus officinalis L. (R. officinalis), Mentha pulegium (M. pulegium), Salvia (S. Thymus zygis subsp. gracilis (Boiss.) R. Morales (T. zygis), traditionally used Morocco treat microbial infections, were addressed. EO extracted using hydrodistillation method, analyzed by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC/MS). yields 3.64 ± 0.12, 3.53 0.06, 2.48 2.34 0.08%, respectively, for M. pulegium, officinalis, S. T. zygis. The main bioactive components these piperitenone (32.9%) pulegone (32.8%) 1,8-cineol (43.8%) camphor (18.7%) 1,8-cineole (16.8%) trans-thujone (15.9%) thymol (36.4%), carvacrol (24.1%) cymene (23.5%) These showed, according results their activities, good effectiveness against bacteria fungi. Moreover, showed most potent activity all studied, while that moderate Enterobacter cloacae Streptococcus agalactiae Escherichia coli. antifungal tests revealed a strong EO. On other hand, found be inactive at doses selected strains. In conclusion, our show studied contain biologically molecules They can replace synthesized molecules, especially formulation additives, therapeutic, cosmetic, food-processing purposes.
