“…Finest antioxidant activity was exhibit at 150 ppm concentration [31] . Fennel essential oil have important antioxidants (IC50 values range in the DPPH is 11.83-36.90 mg/ml, in ABTS•+ is 7.65-20.13 mg /ml and EC50 values range in the reducing power assay is 3.65-15.24 mg/ml) and phytotoxic activity [32] .…”

Foeniculum vulgare is a cuisine spice of the Apiaceae genus, which is extensively cultivated in the world's tropical and temperate areas. Fennel seeds are developed mostly from dry and semi-dry regions in India. Recent studies have revealed pharmacological properties including antimicrobials, antidiabetic, antioxidants, anticancer and other activities. Fennel contains flavonoids, glycosides and other phytoconstituents present in it which used in medicinal ailments purpose. Phenolic compounds present in fennel can promote to the human health. Trans-anethole, estragole, fenchone and bioactive compounds kaempferol, quercetin, rosmarinic acid have been isolated from this plant and several associate with prospective human body mechanisms. The objective of this review to focusing on the nutritional value, botanical studies, phytochemicals and some major pharmacological actions of fennel to reveal the medicinal potential and future investigation aspects.

“…EOs are complex mixtures including a wide range of chemical compounds with different behaviors, functional groups and polarity. Therefore, the employment of multiple methods to evaluate the antioxidant activity can give increasing information on their antioxidant properties [61,62]. The different behavior of EOs in various methods can represent the oxidant/antioxidant models and or lipophilic/hydrophilic properties of the EOs' components [36].…”

Essential oils (EOs) from medicinal and aromatic plants are interesting products to be used as natural food preservatives. The EOs from the genus Satureja are reported to inhibit foodborne pathogens being worthy of use as food preservatives. Satureja macrantha is found in Western and Northwest Iran and commonly used as a food flavoring agent and for the treatment of urinary diseases. The objective of the present study was to identify the chemical composition of S. macrantha EOs at different growth stages (vegetative, flowering and fruiting stages) and to evaluate their biological activities. Chemical compositions were analyzed using GC-FID and GC-MS. The antibacterial activity was evaluated using the broth microdilution method against the foodborne pathogenic bacteria Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC23922), Enterococcus faecalis (ATCC29212) (Gram-positive), Enterobacter aerogenes (ATCC13046) and Escherichia coli. The antioxidant activity was estimated using the DPPH, ABTS and reducing power assays. The yields of S. macrantha EOs were in the range of 1.4–1.8%, thus scalable for the manufacture of food preservatives on an industrial level. The main compounds of EOs were carvacrol (42.7–48.2%), thymol (0.2–16.5%), p-cymene (10.1–14.7%) and γ-terpinene (7.9–9.1%) in all phenological stages examined. The strongest antibacterial activity (MICs = 5–20 µg/mL) of the EOs was recorded in samples obtained during the flowering stage where carvacrol (42.7%) and thymol (16.5) were present both at high percentages. On the other hand, the antioxidant activity was found to be slightly higher in the other stages. As the EO obtained at flowering showed the best inhibitory properties against foodborne pathogenic bacteria, it is suggested that plants at this stage can be selected as main sources of food preservative agents.

“…The observed composition of both EOs and non‐volatile fractions of Bunium species showed many similarities with other genera belonging to the Apiaceae family. In particular, in the case of the volatile metabolites, besides the most widespread hydrocarbon terpenoids already observed in the Apiaceae, for instance, in Foeniculum vulgare Mill [78] . and Smyrnium olusatrum L., [79] the presence of aldehydic derivatives in notable amounts is of utmost importance which might reflect the tendency of Bunium spp.…”

The aim of this review article is to present, for the first time, an appraisal of the phytochemical, ethnobotanical and pharmacological data on Bunium species. The literature search was conducted using the Scopus, Google Scholar and PubMed databases. The genus Bunium has been found to produce both essential oil (EO), mainly comprising monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes, and non-volatile components mainly coumarins and flavonoids. There are several pharmacological activities associated with the Bunium species, especially antioxidant, antibacterial and antifungal properties. The chemotaxonomic appraisal of the phytochemical pattern of the genus is in sink with the current classification of the family. Moreover, this review confirms the significant ethnobotanical and pharmacological potential of different Bunium species.
