Antioxidant properties and principal phenolic phytochemicals of Iranian tarragon (Artemisia dracunculus L.) accessions

Artemisia dracunculus Essential Oil Chemical composition and antioxidant properties

“…Natural extracts, including essential oils, are very complex mixtures of many different compounds with distinct polarity as well as antioxidant and prooxidant properties, sometimes showing [22]. Previously reports have demonstrated a linear correlation between total phenolic content and antioxidant activity in plants [20,[23][24][25]. This assumption is in accord with our results, the essential oil analyzed by us showed a low total phenol content (0.451 mg gallic acid / g sample).…”

“…Our results comply with previous studies that also reported a weak DPPH radical scavenging activities for the A. dracunculus essential oils [9,10]. In contrast, the A. dracunculus extracts evaluated in previous studies demonstrate a higher free radical scavenging activity [20,21]. Natural extracts, including essential oils, are very complex mixtures of many different compounds with distinct polarity as well as antioxidant and prooxidant properties, sometimes showing [22].…”

The effect of different application methods of sumac (Rhus coriaria) and tarragon (Artemisia dracunculus) on some quality properties of marinated sea bream (Sparus aurata L., 1758)

“…Sumac has an antioxidant and antimicrobial effect with polyphenols, gallic acid, anthocyanin, tannic acid, ellagic acid, catechin, essential oils, gallotannins, and malic acid (Hajib, 2012). However, the antimicrobial effect of tarragon essential oil on meat products has been reported by different researchers Mumivand et al, 2017;Sharafati-Chaleshtori et al, 2013).…”

Black-box modelling, bi-objective optimization and ASPEN batch simulation of phenolic compound extraction from Nauclea latifolia root

“…This method uses various solvents under various polarities, temperature and pH conditions in the extraction of various combinations of phenolic compounds from plants ( Vega et al, 2017 ; Chen et al, 2018 ). The technique is also utilized for preparing household herbal mixture in most of developing countries due to simple extraction procedures and as a result, various phenolic compounds could be extracted by organic solvents with different polarities ( Mumivand et al, 2017 ). ( Oreopoulou et al, 2019 ) reported that convectional extraction technique has widely been used for optimizing extraction conditions of the laboratory and industrial scale implementations of several aromatic and herbal plant materials.…”
