“…However, the juices of treatments 2 and 8 were shown to be inactive. The antimicrobial activity of beet leaves against the tested microorganisms is in line with the results reported by previous authors [28][29] who stated a nearly similar activity for beet root pomace extracts. Such similarity in their antimicrobial activity could be explained due to the resemblance of their bioconstituents.…”

Red beet leaves are used in some countries in salads, while others consider them as leftover. Our goal is to conduct field experiment, for two seasons, to evaluate the effect of various combinations of (organic, chemical and bio-/yeast) fertilizers and different harvest dates on some leaves growth parameters, biocostituents and biological activities. The applied fertilizers significantly increased most of the growth parameters compared to control and highest values were produced by 100%chemical fertilizer (2), followed by treatments of 75%biofertilizer (4) and 75%yeast (8). Highest chlorophyll (a&b) and carotenoids contents were recorded by treatments 2, 4 and 8, particularly those of the second stage. Most of the studied fertilizers significantly increased betanin and polyphenolic contents compared to control and highest values were attained by treatments 4 and 8. Maximum values of betanin and polyphenols were reached in the first and third stages, respectively. Additionally, highest antioxidant activity was afforded by leaves of treatments 4 and 8, whereas leaves of treatment 4 provided a broader antimicrobial activity than control. Moreover, the highest cytotoxic activity was exerted by leaves of treatment 4. Finally, it is recommended to harvest beet leaves at the appropriate stage to obtain high growth values and reasonable percentages of bioactive metabolites.

“…The absence of antibacterial activity does not imply the absence of bioactive components, but active constituents may be present in insufficient quantities to inhibit cell growth. Lack of activity can thus only be proven by using large doses [59]. According to [60], the diameter of the halo zone indicates that the hybrid material exhibits good antibacterial activity.…”

In this study, Hippospongia communis marine demosponge skeleton was used as an adsorbent for sodium copper chlorophyllin (SCC). Obtained results indicate the high sorption capacity of this biomaterial with respect to SCC. Batch experiments were performed under different conditions and kinetic and isotherms properties were investigated. Acidic pH and the addition of sodium chloride increased SCC adsorption. The experimental data were well described by a pseudo-second order kinetic model. Equilibrium adsorption isotherms were determined and the experimental data were analyzed using both Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms. The effectiveness of the process was confirmed by 13C Cross Polarization Magic Angle Spinning Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (13C CP/MAS NMR), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and thermogravimetric analysis (TG). This novel SCC-sponge-based functional hybrid material was found to exhibit antimicrobial activity against the gram-positive bacterium Staphylococcus aureus.

Mediterranean Wild Edible Plants

All countries overlooking the Mediterranean basin possess a varied germplasm of wild edible herbaceous species, with Turkey, Spain, and Italy having the richest floras (Aedo et al. 2013). According to unpublished data gathered by one of us (VV Bianco), Italy probably has one of the highest numbers of wild herbs utilizable as food and condiment. Studies on botanical, agronomical, gastronomic, and nutritional aspects of wild edible herbaceous plants existing in Italy have been undertaken by Bianco since 1964. In the first published work (Bianco 1969), 113 species were reported. In the successive study (Bianco 1989), 360 taxa belonging to 66 families and 230 genera were listed. Afterwards, the results released by Bianco and Machakova (2002) showed that the number of taxa has reached 808, belonging to 91 families and 403 genera. Nowadays, according to the latest data of Bianco, the taxa utilizable as food and condiment herbs may reach 1078, corresponding to 14 % of the total number of taxa surveyed for the Italian vascular flora (Conti et al. 2005). They belong to 96 families, the most important being the following: Asteraceae (18.7 %), Brassicaceae (7.7 %), Lamiaceae (7.1 %), Apiaceae (6.6 %), Fabaceae (5.5 %), Polygonaceae (3.8 %), Chenopodiaceae (3.2 %), Boraginaceae (2.5 %), Alliaceae (2.4 %), and Malvaceae (2.0 %), and 451 genera, where the most represented are the following: Allium (26), Rumex (21), Lathyrus (15), Chenopodium (14), Crepis (13), Vicia (12), Amaranthus, Malva, and Plantago (9). Leaves are the most used organ in culinary preparation (about 70 % of the taxa), followed by tender stems (45 %), flowers (18 %), and roots (16 %); fruits, rhizomes, bulbs,
