Abstract

Zosima absinthifolia is a perennial herb which is distributed from Turkey to East Asia and Iran. It's fruits are used as a food spice in Iran and Turkey. In this work, we will study some biological activities of the fruits of the plant. The MTT assay indicated that methanol extract of the plant exhibited significant cytotoxic effects. In the DPPH assay, the extract showed high antioxidant potential with an RC50 value of 143.5 μg mL -1 . In the disc diffusion assay, the methanol extract was found to have a significant antibacterial effects against Bacillus cereus and Staphylococcus epidermidis. Hexane, dichloromethane and methanol extracts displayed phytotoxic properties in the lettuce assay.

苦艾果提取物的生物活性筛选

苦艾草是一种多年生草本植物，分布于土耳其到东亚和伊朗。它的果实在伊朗和土耳其被用作食品香料。在这项工作中，我们将研究该植物果实的一些生物活性。MTT实验表明，甲醇提取物具有明显的细胞毒作用。DPPH实验显示，该提取物具有较高的抗氧化能力，RC50值为143.5 μg mL -1。在圆盘扩散实验中，甲醇提取物对蜡样芽孢杆菌和表皮葡萄球菌具有显著的抑菌作用。己烷、二氯甲烷和甲醇提取物在生菜试验中显示出植物毒性。
