Achillea millefoilum L. (Yarrow) is an important species of Asteraceae family with common utilization in traditional medicine of several cultures from Europe to Asia for the treatment of spasmodic gastrointestinal disorders, hepatobiliary, gynecological disorders, against inflammation and for wound healing. An extensive review of literature was made on A. millefoilum L. using ethno botanical text books, published articles in peer-reviewed journals, unpublished materials and scientific databases. The Plant List, International Plant Name Index and Kew Botanical Garden databases were used to authenticate the scientific names. Monoterpenes are the most representative metabolites constituting 90% of the essential oils in relation to the sesquiterpenes, and a wide range of chemical compounds have also been reported. Different pharmacological experiments in many in-vitro and in-vivo models have proved the potential of A. millefoilum with antiinflammatory, antiulcer, anticancer activities etc. lending support to the rationale behind numerous of its traditional uses. Due to the noteworthy pharmacological activities, A. millefoilum will be a better option for new drug discovery. The present review will comprehensively summarize the pharmacognosy, phytochemistry and ethnopharmacology of A. millefoilum reported to date, with emphasis on more in vitro, clinical and pathological studies needed to investigate the unexploited potential of this plant.

“…Antioxidant activity of the plant was measured by DPPH free radical scavenging method as described. [11,12] In the assay, 0.1 mM solution of DPPH was prepared in ethanol and 0.5 mL of this solution was added to 1.5 mL of extract solution in ethanol at different concentrations (20-100 μg/ mL). These solutions were vortexed in depth and incubated in the dark at 25°C for 30 min.…”

This study reports the chemical composition, antioxidant, and antimicrobial activity of the essential oil and ethanol extract of Coriandrum sativum L. leaves. Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry analysis identified 19 compounds representing 95.30% of the oil. (E)-2-decenal (29.87%), linalool (21.61%), (E)-2-dodecenal (7.03%), dodecanal (5.78%), (E)-2-undecenal (3.84%), (E)-2-tridecenal (3.56%), (E)-2-hexadecenal (2.47%), tetradecenal (2.35%), and α-pinene (1.64%) were the main components identified in the essential oil. The samples were screened for their antioxidant activities using 2,2diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging and β-caroten bleaching assay. IC 50 value for ethanol extract of C. sativum was determined as 74.87 ± 0.03 μg/mL. Total antioxidant activity value for C. sativum ethanol extract was 85.85 ± 0.04%. Total phenolic content for ethanol extract of the plant was determined as 14.97 ± 0.05 mg gallic acid equivalents/g dry weight. The essential oil and ethanol extract were also tested for antimicrobial activity against 28 different foodborne microorganisms, including 19 bacteria, 7 fungi, and 2 yeast species. The ethanol extract of the plant showed weak antimicrobial activities against microbial strains in both disc diffusion and minimal inhibition concentration tests. This study suggested that Coriandrum sativum L. leaves may be used as a potential source of food flavoring, and for their antioxidants and antimicrobial properties.

“…[6] Species of the genus Achillea are widely used for numerous pharmacological properties, such as antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antiallergic, and antioxidant activities. [3,7,8] Also in Iran, Achillea species are used as diuretic and menstrual regularity agents for wound healing, diarrhea, flatulence, and abdominal pain. [9,10] Phenolic compounds, such as flavonoids and phenolcarbonic acids, constitute one of the most important groups of pharmacologically active components in yarrow.…”

The objective of this study was to determine and compare the composition of volatile components of two species, A. setacea and A. vermicularis, under the temperate climatic conditions (north of Iran) and to investigate quantification of fatty acids in the oil extracted using gas chromatography-flame ionization detector and to evaluate the antioxidant potential and the phytochemical profile in terms of phenolic acids and flavonoids content of the oils obtained from the plants. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis of the essential oils showed that the major compounds of A. setacea were nerolidol (20%) and α-cubebene (14%), while in A. vermicularis were camphor (15%) and borneol (13%). Oil analysis revealed that the major components were palmitic and myristic acids. Chromatographic separation of their phenolic compounds (high-performance liquid chromatography) demonstrated that sinapic, gallic, caffeic, vanillic, syringic, and ferulic acids were present in the two oils of the plants, but in different amounts. These results confirmed A. setacea and A. vermicularis as important sources of bioactive metabolites.
